Looking to knock out your first Marathon or your 10th, and training has eaten most your time, leaving you with little to think about fuelling plans?
Well the Full Marathon Kit is here to serve those with big plans and efforts in mind, transforming those run club training days and evening runs into your Marathon goals. 

 

The Aid Station Full Marathon Kit serves up a platter of Maurten Energy Gels & Drink Mixes – forming a total of 325g carbohydrates to fuel the engine, ensuring you stay energised throughout your marathon.

On the side you'll find hydration and cramp solutions, with CrampFix being your emergency shot when you're hurting and Pure Electrolyte Capsules will maintain the minerals lost through sweat, keeping fluids balanced and staving off potential threats from cramping and dehydration.

Once it's over, you can't forget the desert – the Recovery Mix full of carbs and protein goodness. Not only does it offer a velvety smooth treat post-exercise, it assists in accelerating recovery by feeding those glycogen stores and protein to help those aching muscles. 

Based on the recommended carbohydrate intake, the Full Marathon Kit offers a variety of Maurten essentials to sustain energy for every level of athlete. Emphasising on flexibility, the Full Marathon Kit offers Drink Mixes, slow burning hydrogels, and caffeinated goods that can all be consumed in any order of variety based on nutrition goals.
A practical guideline suggests that as the duration of physical activity extends, you should increase your hourly carbohydrate intake. While true, a fuel guide is highly personal and depends on individual diets and specific training programs.
Typically, endurance athletes aim for 30–45g of carbs per hour for sessions under 90 minutes, 60–75g/hr for sessions lasting 90-150 minutes, and 90g or more per hour for activities exceeding this duration. Scientific studies consistently demonstrate that higher carbohydrate consumption during exercise directly correlates with improved performance, showing a linear improvement in finish times within the 0–70g/hr range.


Calculating the effect of carbohydrate intake, this Full Marathon Kit serves as a general reference to provide high-quality carbohydrates to athletes aiming anywhere from Sub2:30 - Sub4:30, while also providing the pivotal energy required for everyday athletes looking to finish at their own pace. 


Maurten Recommends:

Based on five (GEL160) to seven (GEL100) GELs in total - or 175-200g of carbohydrate:

Sub2:30 = 3:33 min/km = 70-80 g/h = 1x every 20 min

Sub3:00 = 4:16 min/km = 58-67 g/h = 1x every 25 min

Sub3:30 = 4:59 min/km = 50-57 g/h = 1x every 30 min

Sub4:00 = 5:40 min/km = 44-50 g/h = 1x every 35 min

Sub4:30 = 6:24 min/km = 39-44 g/h = 1x every 40 min

General guide:

This general outline is to give an idea for fuelling with Maurten and should be used as a reference. Tailor it to your own training and dietary plans. 

 

1. Consider Preloading with the Maurten Drink Mix 320 the night before the event 

2. Eat before your run, typically 3-4 hours before and something low in fibre and high in carbs. (White bread & Jam etc.)

3. As a suggestion consume Maurten Drink Mix 160 pre-race, around 1-4 hours in advanced 

4. Top up with Maurten Energy 160, Gel 100 or Caf 100, following your own dietary strategies

5. Finish at your new personal best!

 

Maurten Energy Gels and Drink Mixes serve as source of energy.

CrampFix QuickFix Shots are fast-acting cramp solutions which are perfect to have tucked away for cramp emergencies. 
Pure Electrolyte Salt Capsules are easy to carry on hand and should be consumed as necessary – especially on warmer days and for heavy sweaters.
