So, at mile 9.77 (.23 miles from finishing my run this morning) I had to stop, do a quick stretch and get to a bathroom as soon as I could. Yes, the inevitable happened again. I had to go twosies.

As I sat there, I reflected on the many distance runners here and decided to ask the question.

I'm not a morning crapper. I try and eat something on my way to the gym to get my bowels awake but sometimes it doesn't work and I have to start working out because I only have so much time.

The one time I ran outside and did a 10 miler, I was 2 miles from my house when the urge hit me (it was 5:30 am and I wasn't close to a gas station).

How do you guys do it? Do you just have sphincter control from the Gods or is there another secret. Please give me guidance as I am 4 weeks away from the Salt Lake half.
