Ideally want to extend long runs into beyond marathon distance and have some fun going far
Slow right down, enjoy the journey without worrying about your pace. Take walking breaks. Get used to being on your feet for those extended periods and experiment with eating different foods. Apple isn't exactly rammed with calories.
Sounds like you are eating too late if you are bonking, but slowing down might mean you can cover the same distance without hitting the wall.

Day to day think is fine, have been steadily extending the weekend long runs and only feeling the big crash after I got over 15 miles. It hits almost immediate out of nowhere. Ideally want to extend long runs into beyond marathon distance and have some fun going far. Am not getting past that crash part currently. Will try your apricot and cashew suggestion, thanks!
