I've run 87 marathons and 7 -100 mile races. And MANY more for the

And then you realized that you were wrong and outwitted. So you
decided to call me a ...

LOL! Good one. Thanks, I needed a good laugh today.

my pre-run snack... and i'm talking 15-30 minutes prior to hitting the
roads:

liquid honey on one slice of whole wheat bread, sometimes with some
raisins on there. may sound weird, but it works as serious fuel for me
when i've got an empty gut and need something to get me through a
successful workout. my own little homemade energy booster snack.

plus a glass and a half of water.

No, just ignorant.

It does you no good on your run, but may possibly help your recovery.

I prefer a banana and maybe a little cheese/milk. I
just find breads/cereals take extra water to digest.

But the whole wheat provides a slow energy release
(complex carbs) in opposition to the quick energy
honey. Raisins too.

All are good and will help you, but not within 30 minutes of a run.

Where do you insert it? And does the cheese and milk act like a lubricant?

it's my understanding that dairy foods in the gut can run you the risk
of having some stomach upset during the run, but results may differ from
one runner to the next. i guess you can handle it. me, being lactose
intolerant, must be careful on that count.

True. I could live on milk and cheese. I only have to
be careful I don't eat or drink too much of anything
beforehand.
