How can I keep my blood sugar from dropping after long runs?

I usually eat a breakfast of fruit and tuna, the egg as a snack then run 12 miles. I’m pretty sure my blood sugar drops after my run because I get light headed and real nauseous until I eat a piece of chocolate or candy.

Answer #1

Eat a peanut butter sandwhich about 20 minutes before you run.

Answer #2

when you run you are suppose to carry water with you. put lemon slices in your water or carry a shot of cranberry juice with you (the healthiest fruit juice i can think of). i dont like gatorade but it may help. if you could just bring some type of fruit in a bag that would be the best i believe.
