Case Report: Stage-by-stage fueling, glucose dynamics, and next-day metabolism and biomarker responses after baseline testing in an 18.5-hour Swedish classic tetrathlon

In this condensed UE tetrathlon case, discipline-specific feeding opportunities, rather than generic hourly targets, largely determined achievable CHO delivery, and glycaemic excursions occurred only during the terminal running stage. This integrated case provides a reference observation to inform logistics-aware fueling plans and to motivate prospective studies evaluating whether real-time CGM with predefined decision rules improves late-stage fueling and glycaemic stability in UE events.
