Walls no more

Let's just acknowledge some basic physiology: the wall is certainly no myth once a marathoner's energy stores get depleted. Scott is simply saying that he has found nutritional ways to address energy depletion, thereby avoiding the "wall".

I am a veteran marathoner of 2 decades. For too many years I simply drank water only at the hydration tables. The sports drinks were a gimmick, I told myself. Then one warm year at Boston, out of necessity, I drank anything I could get my hands on. The energy drinks kept me chugging right to the finish...no hint of a wall. (I guess some lessons must be learned first-hand.)
