Can I use CarboPro 1200 in long races?
Sure, CarboPro 1200 is perfect for long races. A 16 oz. bottle contains 1200 calories. This is good enough for FOUR to SIX hours of continuous training or racing. During long races or long training sessions an athlete experiences considerable stress. His/her muscle glycogen (energy) stores and electrolytes are depleted. CarboPro 1200 replenishes muscle glycogen and electrolytes. During IM distance races or Ultra-marathons you may need more than a bottle as the race may normally last for more than SIX hours. It is easily digested and rapidly absorbed, and will not cause a hypertonic solution even after being continuously used at the rate of 200 calories per hour.
