It was recommended to me to drink a cup of tea or coffee a few hours before a long run. Dispite caffene dehydrates you, it also helps break down fat for energy. I find it all helps (running the london Marathon in 11 days!!!). I also find the sports gels work for me, been advised that some people can react to sports gels, so it may not be for them. When I do my long runs I do find this sudden burst of energy 5-10 minutes after consuming the gel!
