12 miles in 92 minutes so about 7:45 min mile pace. stretching and ankle exercises. Had an upset stomach so was running very slowly and ended up only doing 12 miles instead of the 16 mile run I planned. What are some good tips for dealing with running on an upset stomach? I am not sure exactly what caused the feeling today, maybe I ate too close to the run?

Hey I just found your blog. You've got some nice goals there. You aren't doing the Hartford Marathon or half this year are you? I am doing the Hartford Marathon.

For stomach, I think you just have to find what works for you, also, perhaps your stomach gets used to certain routines? I like to run on an empty stomach first thing in the morning. When I run after eating, I like to eat mellow foods 1.5 to 2 hours before (bread, oatmeal w/o milk, fruit) or regular meals 3 hours before. Today I ran at 3pm, ate a big lunch of chicken curry at noon, and felt the big meal the whole way. So I might need to make the rule of no big meals before running.

When I do find I have an upset stomach, I don't push the pace, and allow myself any potty breaks I need.
