Avoiding road hazards: nausea, cramps, and other GI maladies

side-stich-running  

Avoiding the unfortunate occurrence of a gastrointestinal problems begins with training your gut. In week 6 it was strongly recommended that you identify a potential race day fueling strategy and practice early and often. Physical & physiological training adaptations occur with gradual increase in demand. Research has demonstrated that the gut is trainable, in that it can adapt to the demands placed upon it. Strategies to manage GI problems include experimenting with liquid meals, gradually increase the load you are introducing to your gut, monitor at what intensity you experience the onset of symptoms, keep your race-day stress & emotions in check and adapt accordingly. Unfortunately there is a small community of athletes who are more predisposed to gastrointestinal problems. However, this group is small and with guidance of a trained sports nutrition professional, adaptations can be achieved and road hazards can be avoided.
