FUELING INEOS 1:59 CHALLENGE

KIPCHOGE IS THE ONLY MAN ON EARTH WHO CAN SUSTAIN 2:51 MIN/KM PACE FOR TWO HOURS.
THE HUMAN BODY IS HEAVILY CARBOHYDRATE DRIVEN DURING PROLONGED, INTENSE ENDURANCE RUNNING.
KIPCHOGE MUST SUPPLEMENT WITH CARBOHYDRATES TO INCREASE CARBOHYDRATE AVAILABILITY TO MAXIMIZE ENERGY PRODUCTION FROM EVERY LITER OF OXYGEN KIPCHOGE WILL HAVE AN INDIVIDUALIZED AND AGGRESSIVE FUELING PLAN TO BREAK THE TWO HOUR BARRIER.

KIPCHOGE FUELING PLAN IS MOST LIKELY BASED ON HIS OWN PREFERENCES TESTED IN TRAINING AND
FORECASTED ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS IN VIENNA.

THE FUELING PLAN HAS MOST LIKELY BEEN FINE TUNED
OVER AT LEAST TWO MONTHS IN PRIOR.

IT CAN BE ESTIMATED THAT ELIUD KIPCHOGE EXPENDS >1200 KCAL PER HOUR AT 2:51 MIN/KM PACE ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY FROM CARBOHYDRATES.

KIPCHOGE WILL USE A MIXTURE OF GEL 100, GEL 100 CAF 100 AND HIGH
CONCENTRATED MAURTEN SPORTS DRINKS. REGARDLESS OF EXTERNAL WEATHER, HE WILL MOST LIKELY AIM FOR 60 - 100 GRAMS OF CARBOHYDRATES PER HOUR.

THIS AMOUNT WILL PREFERENTIALLY BE DISTRIBUTED EVERY 15 MIN OR 5 KM, E.G. AN EQUIVALENT OF 15-25 GRAMS OF CARBOHYDRATES PER FEEDING.
