25: How To Dial In Your Fuel Strategy (Mini Episode)

from My First Marathon · host My First Marathon

Fueling is one of the most common questions that comes up for first-time marathoners, and it can feel overwhelming when you’re not sure where to start. In this mini episode, we break fueling down into three simple steps: choosing a texture you can tolerate, testing it on lower-risk runs, and dialing in a strategy that works for your long runs and race day. We also talk through the differences between gels, chews, and liquid fuel, and why experimenting early in training is key.If you want a step-by-step structure for how fueling fits into a full training cycle, the 20-week First Marathon Buddy Course walks you through this and everything else you need to know to run your first marathon with confidence.
