I'm good for 15 miles on zero carbs. After that, I need to start adding in Gu. I ran 18 miles last weekend on only 2 packs of Gu that I slammed down at 13 miles. It can be done, but I think I've reached my "outer limit" on mileage on low carb. Plus, I'm slow anyway - 10-minute miles for a 15-mile run. Not exactly elite-level stuff. But I'm happy with it.

My weight training has definitely been easier on low carb. And muscle definition is miles above what it was on a high-carb plan. The money shot on low-carb appears to be in weight training. I've had phenomenal results, and my weight loss was quick, easy, and gives me amazing definition. Shit, having abs at 47? I'll take it.
