On Sunday in London, Sebastian Sawe became the first man to win the marathon in under two hours. The Kenyan revealed his secret.
He revealed his secrets. On Sunday, Kenyan Sebastian Sawe became the first man to break the mythical two-hour barrier in the London Marathon , making history with a time of 1 hour, 59 minutes, and 30 seconds. And since this record, everyone has been trying to uncover his training and nutrition secrets.
But what did he eat for a snack before setting off? "I ate two slices of bread, honey, and tea," he revealed after the race. This breakfast was eaten at 6:00 a.m. on Sunday, three and a half hours before the start of the race, and is part of a comprehensive nutrition program established by Maurten, his sports nutrition sponsor.
But he didn't stop there. At 6:45 a.m., he took sodium bicarbonate to reduce the buildup of lactic acid during his effort. And five minutes before the marathon , he took one last gel.
During the race, he drank 160ml of sports drink every five kilometers and took a caffeine-rich gel at the 20-kilometer mark, five kilometers before his attack. In total, Sebastian Sawe consumed 115 grams of carbohydrates per hour.

According to the Citius Mag website, Sebastian Sawe prepared himself well in advance by following this same protocol for 32 days. This clearly paid off.
Another element that was scrutinized was his pair of shoes. Sawe, just like his runner-up the Ethiopian Yomif Kejelcha (also arrived in under two hours), wore the Adidas Adizero Adios Pro Evo 3 , a shoe weighing 97 grams, the first under 100 grams, with a lighter foam and a new structure that replaces the classic carbon plate.
