Top 5 Most Common Marathon NutriXon Mistakes

Kelly Devine Rickert MS RDN CSSD LDN

• Devine NutriXon Inc

– Registered DieXXan/Owner – Board CerXfied Sports DieXXan – www.devinenutriXon.com – FREE monthly newsleZer – Monthly Menu Planner for People on the Go

• Run to the Pub – Director and trainer – www.runtopub.net

Mistake #1: Focus is on weight loss/low carb diets ▪ Runners NEED carbs!

▪ Need proper nutrients to help recover (which include carbs!)

▪ Need adequate energy to perform your BEST

SOLUTION ▪ Balance of complex (high fiber), lean proteins, and a mix of healthy fats every few hours throughout the day to maximize energy levels

Mistake #2: JusXfying excess food and drinks because “I am marathon training. I am burning SO MANY calories!”

▪ Marathon runners will add in calories: ▪ During run- take in 250-500 kcals ▪ Post run recovery snack or drink 150-350 kcals ▪ Burn 1,000 kcals in 10 mile run. Consume 5oo kcals from GU and Gatorade, and eat a snack post run= 850 kcals! Not much room for other treats!

SOLUTION: ▪ Rein in the extra snacking, deserts and alcohol!

▪ Keeping a good food log ▪ MyFitnessPal/HandwriZen log

Mistake #2: Focus on NutriXon for the Long Run Only ▪ “Can’t outrun a bad diet” ▪ Workouts during week just as important as the long runs!

▪ Use the 80/20 rule

SOLUTION

▪ Consume diet high in anXoxidants to help decrease inflammaXon

Salmon, walnuts, almonds and other nuts, beets, berries/pineapple dark leafy greens/broccoli whole grains, olive oil and flax seed tart cherries, soy beans

▪ Eat every 3-4 hours through day to maximize energy levels

Mistake #3: No recovery foods or drinks post run ▪ No post race/long run recovery can lead to ▪ Increase risk for injury (tears, stress fractures) ▪ More performance in future workouts

SoluXon: ▪ 45 minute “Window of Opportunity” ▪ Consume carbohydrates AND protein ▪ Protein bar and Gatorade ▪ Greek yogurt with fruit

Mistake #4: Not consuming the right amount of fluids

▪ Not consuming enough fluids during day can lead to poor energy levels and performance in workouts.

▪ Lead to dehydraXon and faXgue late in training runs and race

SoluXon: ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪

2 cups water/Gatorade before exercise 1 cup 15 minutes before exercise During: ½ cup to 1 cup every 1.5-2 miles Aker: 2 cups of water Weigh self before and aker Drink 16 oz fluid for every pound lost

Mistake #5: No Race Plan ▪ PracXce makes perfect!

▪ Start to devise race plan early in training!

SoluXon: ▪ PracXce your pre race/long run meal breakfast ▪ Mix of heavy carbs, liZle protein, low in fat generally

▪ Consume 30-60 grams of carb per hour of race ▪ NO mixing GU and Gatorade ▪ Electrolytes if no Gatorade
