Runners Guide
AID STATION SUPPLIES
We plan to supply the following drinks and foods at each aid station and check point (although which will update accordingly). We plan to prepare enough drink and food to serve the very last runners, but we also ask for all of your cooperation and understanding.

Developed based on the voice of endurance athletes, this product introduces a unique concept distinct from traditional energy gels. It uses Palatinose as its primary ingredient, ensuring slower digestion and absorption. This helps maintain your stable condition while providing sustained energy and optimizing performance. With a mildly sweet taste that is gentle on your stomach, it also contains magnesium to help reduce muscle cramps. To cater to different needs, it comes in three flavors - Ume (Japanese plum), Green Apple, and Lemon—offering two caffeine-free options (Ume, Lemon) and one with caffeine (Green Apple). A highly anticipated choice among athletes, this energy gel also features an environmentally conscious package design that prevents the opening tab from detaching.
You can find them on the Official Booth at RACE EXPO.
