It is so great to hear advice from those that have been through it. I have gotten to the point where if I make it through 3 miles before a break I am proclaiming it a victory. Not a good thing with a few halfs a full and 50K on the horizon between now and end of May.

Not sure if you read about all my stomach issues, but I started using it daily before my workouts because glutamine helps to coat your stomach and things are SO MUCH better. That with a probiotic is definitely a big thing for my runs to go well. Good luck as you figure out what works for you!!RunToTheFinishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13995696358152941044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8143752786074156620.post-11233853146838678412013-04-03T11:52:51.123-04:002013-04-03T11:52:51.123-04:00Thank you for your input!

I am back to journaling...the sucky part is, I pretty much already cut out dairy (minus greek yogurt/a little cottage cheese) I pretty much stopped drinking (seriously haven't had one since mid February that is just sad!)<br />I am now giving up some of my fav veggies, broccoli, cauliflower and brussel sprouts to see if that helps I eat a ton of vegetables so trying to eliminate ones that are known trouble makers. <br /><br />I've been scared to try immodium (because I am already a very dehyrated person) but might take it for a test drive sunday! <br /><br />Glad to know I am not alone...praying to get this under control before my big races coming up.Gianna https://www.blogger.com/profile/09499890015030927758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8143752786074156620.post-55404136840228344512013-04-03T09:36:56.711-04:002013-04-03T09:36:56.711-04:00I've had very similar issues.

I eliminate alcohol for at least 24 hours before a long run (NO glass of wine before dinner) and I eliminate lactose of any sort 100%. Any time. All week. I also am very careful with when I eat salads / fibrous foods (try to keep those 48 hours before a long run). When i had issues, a food journal was recommended to see what caused issues and what didn't. And sometimes? Just a bad day. Before a race, i find sometimes taking an immodium helps with the "sudden" urges (but be careful, because those are dehydrating!) <br /><br />Good luck...I hear you on this!Run, MeriG.

And if not, I hope the doctor can figure out what might be up. It's so frustrating when we're willing to put in the effort and our bodies don't meet us halfway.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10413371644902006675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8143752786074156620.post-24384377876073859192013-04-02T14:55:53.835-04:002013-04-02T14:55:53.835-04:00Hey you!

That sounded like such a rough run. Food definitely affects my stomach in a a bad way when I run, so fingers crossed that playing around with what you've been eating will help a little??<br />I hope this clears up for you much sooner than later.TRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16112652114614575515noreply@blogger.com
