  • I’m planning to tap out a steady half marathon at the weekend. Would it be possible to go before breakfast like my other runs to date, or am I flirting with a bonk?

    If it’s more advisable to eat before would a quick snack and go work or would it have to be a big breakfast and wait a few hours ?

    Previous max distance was 15km mostly zone 2 (6:00ish/km) and felt fine on completion.

  • Whatever you end up doing I'd recommend making sure you have your pre-run poo especially if you're going to be running before most places open. I end up doing quite a lot my training pre-breakfast and my go-to is a pint of water/electrolytes and a banana before heading out, with some nutrition in hand in case energy levels drop
