Foods and Fluids

No person in the world can adequately race for 6 hours without food or water. 

Tim Wilkins suggests the following: 

• Water with carbohydrate fluids in it.
• Any food with a quick release of carbohydrates which may include white bread sandwiches with honey and cheese in, “cookie time” biscuits and any sort of lollies or bars.

Be careful with large amounts of chocolates as they can cause “spikes and downs” in energy levels. (“The best thing about adventure racing is you can eat as much junk food as you like when racing”).
