I just ran my first marathon--ate 6 gu's, lots of jolly ranchers, drank about 20 oz of propel, and the rest of the race drank water at each stop. at about mile 25 1/2 i started feeling very "out of it," and almost blacked out as i crossed the finish line. my bp was 140/95, i normally am at 95/60. why did i almost faint? i felt ok pain wise, i just couldn't stay strong. i did finish it running though! what happened?
