Highlights
Dylan’s road so far.

Ran the New York City Marathon: running through the streets of NYC was his best moment of the season.
Off the clock
The real Dylan.
Dylan’s best advice
You need more than you think - and if you feel hungry, it's too late
Race day
Race morning: Oatmeal & a gel
During: Bars, gels and electrolytes
After: Immediate recovery & a big salty meal
Guilty pleasure
Pint of Ben & Jerry's
Post-race meal
Something salty
Always in the fridge
XACT protein wafers, Coke Zero, fresh produce
WHEN IT TASTES GOOD, IT’S GOOD.*
Dylan’s words, not ours: “Knowing I have nutrition dialled is one less stressor on race day”
