Sorry you aren't feeling great. I just read your timp marathon race report, and had to tell you, great work. I think fueling during the marathon is an overlooked issue, and it's good you are making a plan to stay on top of it. I think it makes a big difference on the last 8 miles if you've fueled properly before and during the first 18.

Yeah, I did a lot of reading about the science of running, and this really stuck out at me. I am hoping that I can use this knowledge to my advantage at St. George and avoid bonking even though I won't have as many miles in my legs as I would like.

You've been getting some good mileage in and some good long runs. Which marathon did you decide to do? TOU?

Yeah, I'm in TOU. It's the getting nervous time.
