Energy refill during running….

Options
This is the first time ever I am doing a half marathon and I VERY nervous. ….I am concerned that I am going to run out of energy during the run. Is there any thing I can carry with me to eat that will give me energy as well as stop thirst as well?

    i dont run (dodgy knees), but cycle
    last year i trained for a 54 miler with my daughter and we found the energy powder that you can mix with water did the trick for us,
    we bought it in our local supermarket
    otherwise have you thought of asking in a local sports specialist shop (although their prices will be higher)
    smile --- it makes people wonder what you are up to.... ;) :cool:
