Hi Dr Alex,
I had a few questions but wasn't sure if it was worth starting a new thread.
I'm interested in doing something like the above mix, but wasn't sure about the correct way to go about it. My standard nutrition for a 70.3 is 1 dose of 21.7g carbohydrate every 10km (about 15-16min) and 1 mouthful-ish of a hydration product from a 750mL bottle with another 38g of carbohydrate in it every 15km. I also carry another bottle of water that gets consumed over the course of the bike leg. I'm usually around the 2:30-2:35 bike split depending on all of the factors. That works out to be about 70g per hour from the nutrition product and about 15g per hour from the hydration product.
From the above recipe, how much of that would I require to get my 85-90g/hour of carbohydrate in say 2x 650mL bottles?
Thanks,
Ben
