  • Planning to do my first 26.2 miler in a couple weeks, not under race conditions, just for myself.

    Made 30km the other week with just a banana and no water. Planning to do this with one of those stupid,ergonmic 275ml bottles (see pic) and a couple rhubarb and custard Nakd bars.

    Any recommendations for what to put in my bottle as I'm limited to 275ml I think I'll want more than water as I would like to avoid taking my camelbak. Cheers 👍

  • Take two bottles Or a fiver to buy something in emergency.

    And gels! I haven't run further than 20m for a few years, but it was always a drink that I craved.

    Even more so this time of year for

  • Oh yes. The bank card will be in the pocket. Two of the ergonomic bottles with water? Maybe I'll take one in each hand, one with water, one with electrolyte drink.
    Sorry, but the gels are a no go for myself no matter how good they are.
