18 Hours of Mountain Bike Racing on Zero Calories

July 24, 2016

Fast facts:

• The elimination diets that we’ve gotten great results with for our clients travel very well with a little planning.

• Our diet didn’t vary from the norm on a recent three week road trip.

• I’ve been eating a very high fat and fibre, moderate protein, zero acellular carbohydrate (e.g. sugar) ketogenic diet.

• Just before we departed, my blood glucose was 77 mg/dL and blood beta-hydroxybutyrate was 1.4 mmol/L.

• I placed 29/600 in the BC Bike Race, a 7-day race in a very wet British Columbia.

• In over 18 hours of racing, I consumed zero calories and a total of 2L of plain water whilst on the bike.
