Should I increase my food intake when I start marathon training?

Well, let's look at if you are going to drive your car four hundred miles, would you fill up your tank? Yes you would, otherwise you are going to run out of gas. If you do not take in enough electrolytic carbohydrates into your system, which are the burning energies which are fed by the blood stream into the muscles, you are not going to have the fuel to get the training done. Yes, it is important that you do increase your intake to supply the nutrients for the additional physical exercise you are bringing on yourself.
