Over 60% of runners report GI distress during a race.

Not some of them. Most.

When you push hard, blood flow shifts away from your gut. The intestinal lining becomes more permeable. Layer a high-osmotic carbohydrate load on top of that, and the cramping, nausea, and bloating aren't bad luck. They're a predictable outcome.

Real-food carbohydrates work differently. Rice, honey, and fruit carry natural compounds that moderate the absorption rate and support the gut wall. Less osmotic spike. Less GI roulette on the back half of your race.

Your legs should be what limits you out there. Not your stomach.
