3.5 hours? You are going to hit the wall! I would. But hey, the next time you tackle that distance, it will be cooler and you will be stronger and it will be easier. I have been re-listening to The Extra Mile Podcast Experiment - Episode 5 (july 14) and Kevin's interview with Steve Born of Hammer Nutrition. They were walking about fuelling and it was very interesting and informative for me.
I was scheduled for a 20 miler and made 19. The price was fairly severe dehydration. I recovered, learned, and ran 22 miles the next weekend! No problems, either!
