Race day carbohydrate
The final paragraph of Janice Bremer’s advice to marathon competitors about race-day food should have read: The marathon runner’s energy resources can be preserved by a supply of carbohydrate before the event, which comes from a high-' carbohydrate diet, and rest. To supply energy during the race runners also need carbohydrate (taken as 2.5 grams of glucose, or 1 glucose tablet plus 100 millilitres of water) while competing.
