Marathon Success

Its been just over 12 months since we spoke and I’m overdue to send you a note of HUGE THANKS for the guidance you gave me. I was really struggling with nutrition in long run events and your clarity, direction and information was a game-changer for me.

I wanted to give you this positive feedback so you know the positive impact you are making. In the last 12 months in 2025, I have completed 3 marathons, and 1 ultra-trail marathon too… its been quite a year and in each of these events, I finished in great times, feeling strong and was able to stick to nutrition and hydration plans through-out. 

So a belated but sincere thanks and wishing you well over the upcoming holiday period.

Thank you for the race plan. It was spot on!!
I stuck to eating every hour and drinking plenty of tailwind and water. I even had a couple of other runners comment when I pulled my first cheese and tomato toastie out only 45 minutes into the run stating are you eating already! 😂
Everything seemed to go down well and I stayed hydrated. I had a couple of cups of coke before going up and down the big climb at the end just to get a bit of a sugar hit.
During and after the race I felt great which is what I was hoping for. I was so sick for days after Tarawera and this is what I was hoping to improve on which I did. I didn’t have any nausea or sickness and was able to enjoy a couple of beers and pizzas after the race.
So a big thank you to you for sharing your knowledge. It made a massive difference. With every race we keep learning and getting better and I love it.

3 Day Road Ride

I’ve done my 3 day TDC Vic Disco bike ride … and I just wanted to say a big thank you for your sound nutritional advice – it worked really well and I rocked it 🙂  The Carb/electrolyte powder was great and I aimed for that 40gms of carb hour via my bottle/food/carb jelly thing y’s !! I was even able to share my products with a fellow rider who was really struggling – she reckons she would have quit had it not been for that extra nutritional support. Thanks again, Cheryl.

Thanks Tamara – you were a big part of it all for me. I followed our plan to the letter and felt so much better at the end than previous races. I did lean more on the banana than the potatoes or sandwiches than I expected…mainly due to ease of packaging!!

Thanks again for all your help and advice,

Joanna

Thanks Tamara – it was AWESOME – I followed the nutrition plan to a tee and it worked a bomb –   Ended up with 1 Gel at the end – but the peanut butter sandwich was massive (2 slices of BIG sourdough), so net net, I think I was spot on with the carbs you recommended.

Last 10km were strongest and best of race and I ended up with a MASSIVE smile.

I am so so so grateful I reached out to you for advice!

Elisa  – Thank you for helping to achieve my goal of running a marathon for the first time. I have been feeling so much better and energised after long runs thanks to your nutrition advice around making sure to take in enough carbs pre and post runs. Your tips and insights have vastly improved my recovery time on the back of long runs, helping to avoid those energy crashes!

JJ –  Thankyou for your part in helping me achieve my long term goal of getting to sub 3 hrs. I definitely nailed the nutrition + hydration during the training + race (although it didn’t make it any easier at km 40/41!) and have been buzzing all week from the sense of achievement.

Martim – Thanks for the advice – I was so confident to the starting line and the nutrition+hydration plan worked 110%!

UTMB – OCC Race

We did it! I had the best day out – climbs and descents were brutal but I loved the day. The fueling plan was perfect. I took over 11 hours as I went out to have a great day and took my time through the aid stations. Not once did I feel queasy or unable to take on food, didn’t feel a lack of energy at anytime. On the last descent I switched to coke and lollies and ran home at pace. I cannot thank you enough for this as none of this happens without your advice.

Cheers

Michael
