Sorry for this newbie Q - trying to plan for my first full IM - MT. Where can I find info about nutrition available on the coarse - I've googled and searched IM site but have not been able to find anything. Tried to email Q to IM but no response.

This would seem to be very basic but I can't find the info.

Thanks in advance for pointing in the right direction.

Dan

Here you go...http://www.ironman.com/...letes/faqs.aspx#faq7. They hide it in the FAQ section for most races.

they'll likely update the website as the event nears
but the powerbar and Ironman perform sponsor logos are already there so you can bank on that.
coke, water and gels for sure.

Just FYI, and just in my experience: the USA races all have the same supplies on the course: Perform, Gu, Gu Roctane, bananas, pretzels, chips, cola, cookies, chicken broth. The Mexico races I've done have Gatorade, and PowerGel.
Team Zoot-Texas, and Pickle Juice

I believe the gels at IMMT are honey stingers.
Perform was the drink last year.

Racing in this event as well.

The gels are not the organic ones as I messaged them to check.

There will be aid stations every mile on the run course offering:

I worked a run aid station, there was everything you said and more. I recall chicken broth, gummies, oranges, and powerbars.
