4/15
It looks like all of the runs from here on are going to be hard. Essentially, the few carbs that I eat throughout the day will be burned in the first half of the run, and halfway through the run, I will hit the wall. It's interesting because you normally have to run 18-20 miles on a regular diet to hit the wall. The benefit of a low carb diet is that you can now train yourself while you are in the wall. It's a neat experience because first time marathoners could do a low carb diet for only 2 days and they could see what it is like to run after hitting the wall. For most people, the first time they hit the wall is during their first marathon, and this makes it the hardest part of the race. If people could train themselves to run past this, I believe that the marathon experience would become even better.
