And in Salway's case, that's exactly what he did.
And, you know, as Greg kind of mentioned there and outlined, like I went...
try to take a little bit of a deep dive into the nutrition side because when I read the quote about he had a bit of toast and a bit of honey and a cup of tea and off he went like you know these these guys prep in the week leading up to the marathon in terms of their carb intake etc and even on that race day after the breakfast yeah as Greg said he had like he had a gel five minutes before he started the race which is pure carbohydrate he had a drink you know the hour prior to that and then throughout the whole of the every 5k he's consuming carbohydrates he's taking a gel he's taking a
throughout the race now whether he actually consumes at all or not it's hard to know but it's estimated that he probably took about 100 115 grams per hour over the course of that race so that tied into like you know the bicarb um which you can guess horribly wrong trust me it's sodium bicarb now back in the day i used to just
