My last three marathons:
| California International Marathon 2007 No carbo-loading whatsoever |
Fell apart at mile 18 | 3:07:38 |
| Avenue of the Giants Marathon 2010 Ineffective carbo-loading (diarrhea) |
Fell apart slowly starting at mile 9 | 3:06:19 |
| SB International Marathon 2011 Effective carbo-load (I think) |
Fell apart at mile 17 | 3:07:21 |
Hunh. Carbo-loading really doesn’t seem to make any difference whatsoever. Or else I haven’t the faintest idea how to do it right…
So I need to try something else…
Maybe I should carry a camelback in my next race and drink frequently?

What about the 50 milers?

I’m almost certain I don’t consume enough water on 50 milers, which is what makes me think it may be a factor on 26 milers…
