sorry make that 10km, 14km, 18km so no need for the 20km date lol.
The marathon in 19days I will make sure Im fully carb loaded and then prob a small breakfast and dates in coconut and nuts (take 6 of em) along the way starting at 14km each 6km and some amount of fat and protein is with these also (these raw dates rolled in coconut + crushed nuts = winner there!) Cheers,
ZAC

With the pre fuelling i found a huge lunch and medium late dinner and fasted for 9-10hrs with 2 coffees (100 cals) worked well for faster 10km early morning runs. For the 21kms- i used to have a large grazing day the day before and then 2 choc fruit and nut bars and a strong coffee. This halfa im going to try a large grazing day the day before to feel full and refreshed with a simple low fibre dinner+ 7 hrs sleep. Then in the morn- just 1 coffee at 4.30am with 1 raw sugar and 1 at 6am (1 sugar and 3 dates also)- 30mins before the start and take 3 dates to consume from 10km, 14km, 18km, 20km 🙂 ZAC
