Two Oceans Nutrition Summary!

Two Oceans Nutrition Strategy

Nutrition/Carboloader: 3 days before:

1 scoop EnduraShake in 200mls water (size of a tea cup) at 10h00, 15h00 and before bed. (Continue eating your normal meals)

Food = Breakfast Before: 2 scoops EnduraShake in 400ml water, 45 minutes before the start.

Food during at ~35kms = 2 Options:

Option 1: Drink ONE scoop in 200 of EnduraShake at ~35kms (Add >200mls water to the ziplock bag and drink from the bag

Option 2: Eat Souties at ~35kms. Eat one or 2 packets of Souties according to personal preference

During:

First 10kms: Mix 500-750mls EnduraPower (1 scoop for a person weighing close to ~50kgs; 1.5 scoops for a person weighing close to ~75kgs; 2 scoops for ~100kgs+). Mix in a bottle that you’re happy to toss.

From 10kms – 46kms:

Run with 2 pocket bottles: Fill each pocket to the 75ml mark or a tiny bit more (if you are heavy > 90kgs). Top up the rest of the bottle with water.

Sip on the 1st pocket bottle filled with GT Gel from 10kms to 30kms

Sip on the 2nd pocket bottle filled with GT Gel from 30kms to 50kms

Take your time – with small sips intermittently. Continue to drink water throughout:

Hydrate with water only according to bodyweight. (Recommended: 8ml-10mls/kg bodyweight/hr – this may vary widely. Note: 8mls if cool and rainy, 10mls if very hot – Read more below). Important as GT Gel contains significant sodium and magnesium bis glycinate.

Finish off the event with a Joobie at 50kms

Joobies:

Eat one Joobie about 4 minutes before the worst hill,

Eat one Joobie about 30 minutes from the end

Keep one spare Joobie for just in case you sulk!

Souties:

Eat Souties ANYTIME when you feel for something savoury and salty, when you’re tired of all the sweet stuff. Nice when you feel for real food in your tummy! Great for sorting out cramping

FAQ: I only want to buy EnduraShake for my event – Is this ok?


FAQ: I want to buy ONLY EnduraShake for my event – Is this ok?
Answer:
No – Not if you want YOUR best athletic performance! Using EnduraShake without EnduraPower or GT Gel is like running with one shoe off, or forgetting to fill up your car with petrol before going on a long trip.
EnduraShake  + EnduraPower or GT Gel are designed to work together!
EnduraShake is food ONLY. It is designed to provide a liquid, easy-to-digest meal, replacing SOLID FOOD only. It will not prevent cramping or dehydration. Its combination of macro-nutrients make it a sustaining meal, whilst having to perform with a high heart-rate. It eliminates the need to eat before you compete, and you won’t need to worry about getting meals/energy bars etc during super-long events.
BUT, despite being such a wonderful, delicious formula, EnduraShake cannot be used on its own if you want MAXIMAL performance! You need to use EnduraPower and/or GT Gel WITH the EnduraShake to get those athletic results that you require.
EnduraPower and GT Gel bring a whole bunch of vital PERFORMANCE nutrients (ones that are safe and healthy) to the table. Very high electrolytes including magnesium bis-glycinate, lactate buffers, 4 different speeds of performance carbs, Kalahari salt etc etc.
EnduraShake + EnduraPower and/or GT Gel = Your OPTIMAL athletic performance!
