A good article by pro triathlete Richard Murray. Nutrition: Fuel for success. Dont try anything on race day that you havent tested in training first. What you eat for breakfast should be guided by what your body has been accustomed to in training. Here are some ideas for energy-dense breakfasts that are good for pre-training and pre-race: 1. Muesli with plain yoghurt and a teaspoon of honey. 2. Wholewheat toast with Marmite/Bovril (good on nerves). 3. Oats with peanut butter and a pinch of cinnamon. Having a good breakfast on race day is vital for keeping your blood sugar levels stable during the race. Be careful of overeating, as too large a breakfast will leave you feeling uncomfortable and bloated especially during the swim. A gel or energy bar stuck to the top tube of your bicycle with double-sided tape makes for an easily accessible snack on the cycle leg. Staying away from spicy foods, seafood and anything exotic is always a smart idea in the days leading up to an event. Nutrition is vital to becoming a healthy triathlete overall, but it becomes even more important on race day for fuelling your performance and avoiding GI issues while you race.
