Trail and Ultra Running Fuel

Fuel for trail races, 50K and beyond, picked from our 50K trail and 8-hour How to Fuel guides. On long days in the mountains the aim is steady energy you can keep down for hours: complex carbohydrates rather than simple sugars, a little protein on the longest efforts, and electrolytes every hour. A flask and a capsule dispenser make it easy to carry.
