Bonkproof · by Gene Convery

You train your legs for months. Your gut gets one morning.

The wall at 32 km, the stomach that quits at halfway, the cramp you can't explain. None of them are a fitness problem. Bonkproof fixes your fuelling and hydration step by step, with the same methods I use as an endurance sports nutritionist with my own athletes.

Sound familiar?

None of these are a fitness problem. They're fuelling and hydration problems, and they're fixable.

You hit the wall at the same kilometre, every race, no matter how fit you are.

Your stomach turns at 25 km: bloating, nausea, a portaloo queue that costs you minutes.

You cramp in the heat and can't tell if it's fluid, sodium or pacing.

You've read five different carbs-per-hour numbers and still guess on race morning.

You carb load for three days and still feel flat on the start line.

Why you hit the wall at 32 km, and the 3 fixes

The marathon maths nobody shows you, how many carbs you actually need (and which ones), and how to train your gut to take them. About 20 minutes, with something to try on your next long run.

Who's teaching it

I'm Gene Convery. I've coached marathon and ultra runners for over 20 years, I'm a qualified endurance sports nutritionist, and I'm a former elite triathlete. Fuelling is the question my athletes ask me most, and the fix that most often changes their race. This is everything I teach them, in an order you can follow.
