Below are lists of most common nutritional sources during ultra running training and racing to easily allow you to optimize your carbs per hour for peak performance. There is a list for each of these categories: Drink Mixes, Gels, Gummies, Bars and Waffles, and Whole Foods that list the amounts of carbs, sugar, protein, fat, and sodium in each product/food source. My goal is to make is easy for you to calculate how many carbs (and other nutrients) are you consuming with your current plan and be able to modify/improve your nutritional plan to optimize training and racing performance and recovery. Related articles that are must reads to go along with this: How to get high carbs per hour. How to Maximize Race Day Performance and Minimize GI Distress. Carbs are King/Queen! Please let me know what other nutrient details you'd like to see listed and any products or foods you would like me to add to the lists. I will create a separate list for electrolyte drinks/supplements and recovery nutrition soon also.
