You need to drink lots of fluids AND EAT! You must eat to keep
from becoming sodium deficient. Sports drink will definitely help with
this versus water, but you still need to eat! We also highly recommend
you take some Endurolytes before the race and periodically throughout the race. This will keep your
electrolite levels in check and prevent cramping.
All aid stations will have 3 sections to keep things simple. You will
encounter a table and volunteers with water first, then a table and
volunteers with Cytomax, and lastly a table and volunteers with food (Hammer
Gel, bananas, and oranges).
