10KM NUTRITION STRATEGY
EXPECTED FINISH TIME ~60 MINUTES





WHY DOES GUT TRAINING MATTER
Our bodies can store around 500g of carbohydrate, and you should consume carbs before (carb-loading) and during your race. However, without training your stomach to handle the extra, consuming this additional fuel might cause GI issues during the event, impairing your performance.
Training your gut to handle an increased fuel load helps your muscle glycogen stores and your tolerance, meaning you can go harder, quicker.
FUELLING THE RACE
Consuming additional carbohydrate during the race helps performance by maintaining high blood glucose levels, delaying the use of your glycogen stores, and reducing the sensation of fatigue*. You should also ensure you consume a low-fibre, easily digested meal 2.5-3 hours before the race.
For the pre-race meal, don't overeat or leave it too late! Timing and quantity are key.
If your expected finish time is 60+ minutes, consume 60g of carbs during the event. If it’s ~40g minutes, it’s 40g of carbs.
*Caffeine help to increase alertness

Expert fuelling strategies for training and race day
TRAINING WITH NUTRITION
Alongside training, nutrition plays a key role in optimising performance during 10K training by fuelling your body for intense workouts, enhancing recovery, and promoting training adaptations. Nutrition remains one of the biggest areas that is overlooked, especially for those undertaking 10km training, with the perception being that as it's a 'shorter' race, fuelling isn't as important. We're here to smash that myth, and help you find the right fuelling solution.
6. Vitamin C contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
7. Vitamin B6 & B12 contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
EASY RUNS
Help build aerobic base, playing an important role in your ability to run long distances


EASY RUNS
Easy Runs help you build aerobic base, which plays an important role in your ability to run long distances. These are usually completed twice per week, and you should run between 6-10 km as part of these sessions.
- Pre-run, consume a meal containing 1.5 g/kg body mass of slowly digestible carbohydrate around 2.5-3 hours in advance.
- Consume ~20 g of protein as part of the pre-training meal.
- Given the reduced intensity and duration of these runs (~1h), there is no additional need for carbohydrate consumption during the run.
- Focus on consuming 500-600 ml of water per hour and you can include electrolytes to support hydration.
- Post-run, it is important that you start consuming a mix of carbohydrate and protein early to re-store your energy stores (glycogen) and repair your muscle.
TEMPO RUNS
Key for building your body’s ability to run faster for longer


TEMPO RUNS
- Pre-run, you should aim to consume a meal containing 2 g/kg body mass of easily digestible carbohydrate around 3 hours in advance.
- Consume ~20 g of protein as part of the pre-training meal.
- Given the increased intensity and duration of these runs (~1h), you should aim to consume 30-60 g of carbohydrate per hour during the run.
- Focus on consuming 500-600 ml of water per hour.
- Post-run, it is important that you start consuming a mix of carbohydrate and protein early to re-store your energy stores (glycogen) and repair your muscle.
SPEED SESSIONS
Crucial for improving a range of physiological characteristics


SPEED SESSIONS
Speed Runs are crucial for improving a range of physiological characteristics, including your speed, power, strength and running economy.
- Pre-run, you should aim to consume a meal containing 2 g/kg body mass of easily digestible carbohydrate around 3 hours in advance.
- Consume ~20g of protein as part of the pre-training meal.
- Given the high intensity of these runs, you should aim to consume 60 g of carbohydrate per hour.
- Focus on consuming 500-600 ml of water per hour.
- Post-run, it is important that you start consuming a mix of carbohydrate and protein early to re-store your energy stores (glycogen) and repair your muscle.
LONG RUNS
Important for building your endurance capacity


LONG RUNS
- Pre-run, you should aim to consume a meal containing 2 g/kg body mass of easily digestible carbohydrate around 3 hours in advance, it is important to include fructose-rich foods or drinks (such as Beta Fuel) in your pre-run meal.
- Breakfast you should also consume ~20 g of protein as part of the pre-training meal.
- Aim to consume 60g of carbohydrate per hour and focus on consuming 500-600ml of water per hour.
- Post-run, it is important that you consume a large serving of carbohydrate (1 g/kg body weight) and protein (20-30 g) early to re-store your energy stores (glycogen) and repair your muscle.
