The problem this solves
Runner’s stomach is common, normal, and manageable — but nobody performs well guessing which foods are safe the morning of a race.
The Gut Comfort Ladder orders every pre-race food safest to riskiest; the 48-hour plan eases fiber down without eating less; and gut training in practice makes race fueling a rehearsed skill instead of a gamble.

The Gut Comfort Ladder orders every pre-race food safest to riskiest; the 48-hour plan eases fiber down without eating less; race-morning menus include an all-liquid option; and gut training makes race fueling a rehearsed skill. Red flags route plainly to a doctor.
