When discussing race day nutrition it is important to understand the energy requirements. The average athlete expends approximately 100 calories per mile during a marathon. During a triathlon, the athlete expends approximately 500 to 1000 calories on the swim, 3,000 to 4,000 calories on the bike, and 2,500 to 3,000 calories on the run. Wow! That is some serious energy expenditure.
A study done by researchers at Syracuse found that men burned about 105 kilocalories/mile on average running a mile in 9 minutes and 30 seconds, and about 52 calories when walking the same mile in 19 minutes. For the women in the study, that burn was 91 and 43 calories, respectively.
