MNSTRY x SCYENCE: How to fuel your next 10k running event

The right nutrition strategy can make a real difference on race day. In this video, Max, Lotte, and Anna discuss effective fueling strategies for runners, with a special focus on the adidas Runners City Night on August 1, 2026. The principles covered also offer valuable guidance when preparing for different race distances from a 5K all the way up to a marathon. You’ll learn: • how to plan your carbohydrate intake before and during a race • the difference between 2:1 and 1:0.8 carbohydrate formulations • when taking a gel before a 10K race may be beneficial • the roles caffeine and sodium bicarbonate can play • why gut tolerance, individual testing, and a consistent pre-race routine are so important • how Max approaches his nutrition for an evening race Important: Always test new products and nutrition strategies during training, never use them for the first time on race day. Your ideal fueling strategy is individual and depends on factors such as distance, intensity, tolerance, and personal goals.
