The Gatorade isotonic drink will be situated at the Radisson Blu International Marathon in Larnaka and will empower athletes with the energy they need to successfully complete this event.

They contain ingredients that help in the immediate hydration and replenishment of carbohydrates necessary for muscle glycogen recovery during training.
