I ran 52 miles from Downtown Orlando to New Smyrna Beach. For 2 years I have had the idea of running from my home to the beach. I finally did it. It went well overall. I wish I had done less gels/sweet food and ate more savory meals. I brought a peanut butter and banana sandwich with me, many gels, a few energy waffles, and some soft energy chews. A friend met me at Mile 25 to give me a second peanut butter and banana sandwich and a new bottle of water. I also ran with two refillable bottles and some electrolytes. To be honest, at mile 30 or so my stomach really started to hurt. Thats when I realized more substantial food would have been helpful.
At mile 20 I stopped at a diner and got an egg sandwich w/ bacon. I was able to stop for food and water/the bathroom pretty often with the exception of somewhere around mile 25-37. At that point there is a 13 mile two lane road with nothing. It is brutal.
Aside from that, there are gas stations and restaurants pretty regularly that I was able to fill up at or rest if needed. All of the gas stations, especially wawa gave me no problems about stopping in!
My biggest rec is to bring more substantial food if attempted!
