Half Marathon Performance Bundle 

75g Carbs/hour


Built for runners chasing strong, fast finishes.


Running a half marathon between 1:30 and 2:00 hours places significantly higher demands on carbohydrate availability, hydration, and neuromuscular function. At this intensity, fueling isn’t optional — it’s a performance requirement.


The Half Marathon Performance Bundle is designed around an intake of ±75 g carbohydrates per hour, supporting runners who want to hold pace, minimise late-race fatigue, and finish strong. This bundle removes guesswork by combining high-carbohydrate fueling, electrolyte support, cramp protection, and recovery nutrition — all in one race-ready solution.

What's Included

What’s Included & Why

Planned use: Start line · ±7 km · ±15 km
Styrkr Mix 60 – 2 Servings
A high-carbohydrate drink mix delivering 60 g carbs per serving.
