I'm doing a charity Zumbathon on Sunday, which is basically 3 hours of Zumba. I should be okay through it, one hour leaves me a bit tired but able to do more, and you can leave at any point if you're gonna die!

Does anyone have any tips/things I should be aware of? I'd love to be able to do the full 3.

    As it's as long as some (fast!) people run a Marathon, fuel it like one. Find something you can stomach while dancing - energy bars, gels or sports drink for example - and have small amounts every 45 minutes before you feel tired or hungry. Good luck, and be sure to drop in and tell us how you got on and how much you raised for what charity :flowerforyou:

    I did a zumbathon in Feb. I managed to complete 2 and a half hours. You get breaks in between and at the one I did, they gave us bananas to eat if we felt peckish-a great workout food :)
