Electrolytes are really important, especially when training for a marathon. But many runners forget about them, which can cause problems like cramps or feeling super tired.

Challenges:

• It’s hard to get the right amount of electrolytes.
• Many people depend too much on sugary sports drinks.

Solutions:

• Set up hydration stations carefully along the route.
• Think about using electrolyte tablets or powders to make sure you get enough.

If you don’t manage your electrolytes well, your performance can really suffer. That’s why it’s important to plan ahead before race day!
