everyone should bonk so they know what their body feels like at the onset of bonking (it's different for most everybody).

then you can anticipate a bonk and prevent it.  I was on the onset of bonking (VERY VERY early stages) at IMAZ but knew my body well enough to get some electrolytes in and continue ingesting carbs even though I completely lost my appetite and I didn't.

I've never bonked for real, but I've had dreams about it.  In my dreams it feels like my legs just turn to jelly and no matter how hard I try, I just can't run any faster.

Everytime I 'bonk', it is due to not having any breakfast/sufficient food before my run/cycle. I find it hard to eat anything before 10am. I have to practically force feed myself. The last time I bonk (which is abt 3 weeks ago) after a run, it took me the whole day to recover. No matter what I eat or how much I rested, I feel exhausted for the rest of the day. It's an aweful feeling.
