With Coach Kelvin; UK Athletics qualified Running Coach and We Run Coach for Leeds
Hi Team We Run,
Here’s how much fluid we need to replace whilst training and racing. 💦
Bear in mind that the shorter the race the higher the intensity is likely to be. 🏃
1.5 to 3 hour effort - 50 to 70%
3 to 4 hour effort - 70 to 80%
4 to 6 hour effort - 80 to 95%
6 hours effort plus - 100%
Replace the deficit in the 1 to 2 hours after the run
Let me know if you have any questions in the comments below ⬇️
Happy Running,
Coach Kelvin
