Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Should I change my fuelling plan in hot weather?
A: Yes. Heat increases the demand on your body, so your fuelling plan should be simple, practised and easy to follow. Keep drinking regularly, replace electrolytes, and take on carbohydrates before you feel empty. Do not wait until you feel thirsty, flat or overheated.
