No plastic bottles at London Marathon, This is how athletes will drink

Ooho capsules have already been trialed at several races.

London Marathon organizers are taking measures to make 2019 event more environmentally sustainable.

Energy drinks will be served in compostable cups. 

Participants will be given edible seaweed pouches containing sports drink.

More than 41,000 people will run the London Marathon on Sunday.

It’s one way race organizers are hoping to reduce the huge amount of plastic waste generated during the endurance run.

Almost 1 million plastic bottles were handed out to runners last year.

Sunday’s race marks the first time they’ll be used at a marathon.

The pods are meant for people on the move, such as runners and music festival attendees.
