Normally, I eat 2-2.5 hrs ahead of a marathon. 100km coming up will be double the most i have ever run. I assume the slower pace will allow me to eat closer to the start time. We start at 6am. I'd like to roll out of bed, eat and run if I can!
When do you guys eat before a run that long?
I usually do about the same thing I do before a marathon. Eat 2-3 hours before the race. The only thing I do slightly different for 30+ miles is try to get down something solid 30 minutes before the race. I also drink a little bit more fluid as well as I'm not so worried about having to stop for the bathroom during a 50, it's just going to happen at some point at least for me.
