Great to see this study published, part of a creative partnership between @EnglandAthletic marathon programme, Liverpool John Moores & SIS. Looking forward to see the female only study published soon. Well done to all those involved.
Super proud of this : 120 g/h improves whole body CHO metabolism, exogenous CHO oxidation and running economy in male elite marathoners! Congrats to @SamanvitaRavik1, co-authors @pugh_jamie @AndyBeetroot funders @ScienceinSport @LJMU @EnglandAthletic
