Meet the range
Explore the Swisse Magnesium range, including magnesium glycinate, a highly absorbable form of magnesium that supports muscle health. Whether you're preparing for race day, looking for magnesium for muscle recovery, or prioritising sleep and relaxation, find your formula to support your active lifestyle.
Training for City2Surf
Whether you're taking on this iconic Sydney run for the first time or aiming for a new personal best, preparation can make all the difference. Building a consistent training routine, gradually increasing distance and including hill sessions can help prepare your body for the unique challenges of the course.Â
When it comes to City2Surf training tips, prioritising the fundamentals is crucial. Incorporate rest and recovery days into your schedule, stay hydrated and avoid making major changes to your routine in the final week before the event. On race day, focus on pacing yourself, especially through the inclines, and remember that a steady approach often leads to a stronger finish!
Recovery Tips for Race Day
Crossing the finish line is only half the job. Post marathon recovery plays an important role in helping your body bounce back after the demands of race day. Whether you're walking, jogging or running the full course, it’s important to give those legs a little love!Â
After City2Surf, prioritise hydration, nutritious meals, gentle movement and adequate rest as part of your post-run recovery routine. Adding muscle recovery supplements could also help get you back on track. As part of our partnership with City2Surf, Swisse is supporting runners beyond the finish line with our magnesium range. This includes our Swisse Ultiboost Magnesium Glycinate which is formulated with a highly absorbable form of magnesium for muscle recovery.
