Hi all,
I wanted to go ahead and introduce myself! I’m a relatively new runner (since January 2024) but come from a soccer and powerlifting background. Prior to last year, I’d only run 5 miles once in high school while training for soccer, otherwise I capped it at 2-3 miles per run. I’m currently training for the Chickamauga Battlefield Marathon in November. This will be my second road marathon and 3rd marathon overall (I ran a trail marathon in March). I’ve experimented with a lot of different supplements (gels/electrolytes/carb powders, etc.) over the past year so if anyone has any questions about what’s worked for me, let me know!
