Don&#8217;t be the person who waits until the last minute and fumbles nutrition. Long workouts and races are competitions in fueling and pacing. If you don&#8217;t get fueling right, the rest may not matter. The mistake many new distance athletes make is to think that because they can get through each individual workout without taking in many (and perhaps no) calories or fluids, that they can &#8220;survive&#8221; their race without them.
