After many months of marathon training, the weekend of the London Marathon is a very exciting time. Not only do you get to enjoy the race itself, which is always a special occasion even if it doesn’t go to plan, but you also get to carb-load.
This is what all that running has been building up to. The chance to gorge on carbs to ensure your body has the fuel it needs to run 26.2 miles. The actual running is great, but the carb-loading is truly tremendous.
