You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: Raptured Subject: RE: Bonk on long run question Body: If you really have a lot of bonking/cramping issues, try fixing it with an extra gel or 2 in your marathon and even a couple salt capsules (salt is usually the main factor in cramping, assuming that you're fit enough to be racing the distance). I think there is some merit to riding the line of bonking in long runs as forcing your body to metabolize fat in training will make it more efficient with metabolizing fat during the race, but it sounds like you're trying to go way beyond that. IMO, you'd be better off just eating normally before your run, getting your runs in properly, and taking a little more during the race. Hit the submit button below if you want us to review the post.
