Many friends of mine that run more then 10k, and over 1 hour long have told me I should take one of these products to extend my distance, because by the time I hit 1 hour, my electrolyes and energy are all used up.

Now, I have done a lot of research, and it seems that sharkies are gaining popularity. My question is, how much of them to eat while on a long run. Do I eat before the run, or in the middle ? Or perhaps I do not need anything at all..

Looking for peoples opinions on this type of stuff, for outdoor runners that run over 1 hr.
