Since you can already run 18k, you already have the endurance. The wall that you’re hitting isn’t endurance based, it is exhaustion based. You are running out of calories immediately available in your blood stream. The endurance wall, usually hit at 2 miles or 45 minutes, is based on how many calories are already in your muscles, can be overcome with training, and is best avoided by having a heavy meal the night before. The exhaustion wall, on the other hand, can’t be trained through, because you’re simply running out of energy. You can push this limit by having easily digested carbs available throughout the run, like salted sugar-water (a.k.a., Gatorade) and bread… Expect the new calories to start taking effect around 15 minutes after you eat/drink them. Another great way to push back the exhaustion wall is to lengthen your stride… Cover more area in the same amount of time. For instance, practice prolonged sprints, more than the standard 100 meter. Try to hold a good sprint for 1k.
