Running Nutrition

Food and drink consumed while you run is known as "nutrition", and it comes in various forms, shapes and sizes. Common types of running nutrition are powders you add to your water, energy bars, and energy gels.

These types of nutrition are packed with energy (calories) and assist you to stay hydrated (with electrolytes) so you can sustain harder training sessions, and take on longer training runs and races.

Carbohydrates (Carbs) for running

Simple carbohydrates give runners fast, easy-to-digest energy that helps maintain pace and delay fatigue during training and races. Foods like bananas, gels, and sports drinks quickly fuel working muscles without sitting heavily in the stomach.

Electrolytes for running

Electrolytes help runners stay hydrated by replacing key minerals lost through sweat, mainly sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium. Running nutrition products like sports drinks, gels, and hydration tablets help restore these electrolytes to support muscle function and reduce fatigue and cramping.

Nutrition for runners


One of the biggest advantages of run-specific nutrition is that it is easy to take with you on training runs and to races. It is also usually formulated for your body to absorb it quickly and access the energy faster than trying to eat and digest real food.

The running energy drinks, running energy gels, running energy bars, electrolytes for runners, and recovery nutrition products we stock at Stokelab are tried and tested, so we know you'll find a fuel to match your favourite flavours and your body's needs for extended or strenuous training and events.
