1.Magnesium
This will be your best friend and a very important supplement for any athlete who plans on participating in this year’s Viking Marathon. Magnesium plays a role in the normal function of your muscles. As exercise can also lead to a loss of magnesium in sweat it is important to get just enough. A small deficiency in this may reduce performance and increase stress on the body.
