I use a camelbak and take a swig every half mile or so. On anything longer than 10 miles, I will do a GU. On anything longer than 17 miles, I'll take 2 GUs. I did have some stomach problems during my last marathon, which I attribute to HammerGels, heat (well, relative nothing compared to what you get in AZ), and not being able to have a bm before the race (tmi I know).Raquelitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13138113830990586689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8674265795187434274.post-35916385411107105262011-05-31T21:49:43.284-07:002011-05-31T21:49:43.284-07:00What your coach says makes a lot of sense!

I might not use as many as 5 like people say.

I'm jea...you have a COACH!? and an amazing one! I'm jealous.<br /><br />I don't eat while running. I chew gum, and that is it. I had 4 pieces of Gu Chomps during my last marathon, just to give it a try. I had gatorade at 2 or 3 of the water stops. On a normal run, I drink water at fountains, and on hot days will buy a Vitamin Water zero (lemonade flavor) at 7-11. <br /><br />Also, I never, ever get hungry when I run. I eat huge dinners, run in the morning, and that seems to work out perfectlyRoseRunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06771324416061217852noreply@blogger.com
