Carbo-loading


pasta / Kanko*


Just before the race, be sure to eat plenty of carbohydrates (glycogen) to give you energy.
Eat more than your usual portion of carbs such as rice or pasta.
It's effective to drink something containing citric acid, such as orange juice, with your carbs.
Drink plenty of fluids. Avoid fatty foods, alcohol and caffeine.
