Guest guest Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 I can give marathon training advice based on having run several marathons, being a sports nutritionist, as well as being a gastric bypass dietitian. Please feel free to email me directly. Dana Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile Marathon training Hello all. Can anyone advise re marathon training for post GBP pts.

Guest guest Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 Several of you have asked questions about gastric bypass and running marathons lately and I had promised some guidelines and have Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile Marathon Training Hello, I need help! Does anyone have any information for a Gastric Bypass patient who is training for a walk/run (26 k) marathon? She plans to do this in June. She is 18 months post op. I would appreciate any feedback available. Thanks so much. ~ Kenyon, RD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 Oops! I accidentally hit " send " Anyway, I an currently working on some guidelines that I plan to publish on gastric bypass and marathon/endurance training. I'm in the process of checking references and facts. I promise to post them to the files as soon as I have finished. As far as carbohydrate loading, one of the most important things for endurance athletes is eating at least 30g of carb within the first hour after completing a workout.- just an estimate, but this will help with glycogen repletion. Our rny patients should beable to consume 30g complex carb over 1 hour. There has been some evidence supprting milk or low sugar choc milk as a beneficial post work out beverage b/c of the good balance of protein and carb. No studies done with soy milk, but that may work for lactose intolerant individuals - or lactaid, of course. For replenishment during long runs for rny patients grapes or dried fruit (not so bulky), if tolerated will provide the necessary quick carbohydrates with less chance of inducing dumping syndrome. Someone had mentioned bagels before and I agree with that, as well. Gatoraid can be diluted, but I recommend using gatoraid's endurance formula, for it's higher sodium and potassium content. I will post complete recommendations soon! Any fedback is appreciated. Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile Marathon Training Hello, I need help!

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Check the files section of this group. J Blankenship posted a fantastic handout for endurance athletes.

She's concerned because many of the nutrition guidelines for training are heavy on the carbs. She reports not being able to eat much bread, pasta, or rice, and regardless, they " generally make her feel bad. " I was thinking more whole grains (oatmeal, whole grain toasted bread with PB).

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Endurance athletes absolutely need carbs. The recommendation is 4-7 gm/kg BW for optimal performance. Remember that grains are not the only carbs. A great alternative for this individual could be a fruit smoothie, chocolate milk, sorbets, etc ...which will also help with her challenging hydration needs.
