What a brilliant run. This run is probably aimed at runners with more experience and shouldn't be take lightly. The distance is perceptive since the challenging part is more the elevation. The initial down hill encourages you to charge but you have to hold back and save reserves for the return leg up Suikerbossie.
Wesley and I have of course been on LCHF for 3 months and this would be our first real test of our Keto-adapted state. From an energy point of view, neither of us felt the need to add carbs, in fact I only had a small bowl of full cream yoghurt and half a cup of coffee before the run. During the race i drank mainly water but not much and some of our home mad electrolyte drink. I will probably forgo this in the future as well.
