What's the consensus on this one? I've read about training to use fat stores to fuel long distances, as opposed to necking a constant flow of carbs. I'm interested to know if anyone had experience training their body to use fat and if this is the best strategy for long distances.
I've read on the net that taking no more than 100 calories in per hour is a good strategy, but haven't tried it on myself yet.
Any thoughts or advice appreciated.
