I know there have to be some ultra runners on here. I'm running my first 50k on June 1st. Even for a marathon I don't consume much during the race, so I have no idea about staging/carrying what/how much food..

Also gear??? I run in nothing but shorts, socks, shoes, and compression shirts. Know nothing about belts, water bottles, lamps, gloves, etc., etc. etc. etc.

As far as the training aspect, I'm not concerned about that part.

    How was the 50K? Any words of advice as you prepare for your next one? I'll be doing my first--Nashville 50--in November, and am just starting to ramp up my mileage and nutrition.
