SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Trail and ultra runners often struggle with GI distress and inconsistent fueling during long events. This skill provides evidence-based nutrition and hydration protocols to optimize gut training, race-day fueling, carbohydrate periodization, and recovery nutrition.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Gut training protocols: 4-6 week progressive CHO tolerance building to improve GI comfort during long races.
  • Race-day fueling strategies: CHO targets by duration, hydration and sodium guidelines, and practical delivery plans.
  • Pre-race carbohydrate loading & pre-race meals: modern carb-loading strategies, fiber management, caffeine planning.
  • Post-race recovery nutrition: rapid glycogen replenishment and protein guidance for recovery.
  • Use case: Help a 70kg ultrarunner plan fueling for a 6-7 hour race in hot conditions.

Quick Start

Plan a 4-6 week gut-training fueling program for an upcoming ultra race.
