Good Bad & The Monkey
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
Poor baby
When you run, you need carbs
And Trent's not kidding about the beer. I'm not sure what it is, maybe some specific mix of sodium and carbs, but I crave it after a marathon like nothing else, and in the last 10 miles, taking a few swallows gives me a boost that Gatorade can't touch. No joke - I'm seriously considering filling a bottle on my fuel belt with beer for my next marathon.
Now that was a bath...
What do you brew? I have been brewing for about 15 years. Whole grain, of course. It is a great outlet!
You'll ruin your knees!
They have. It's called a hash run.
""...the truth that someday, you will go for your last run. But not today—today you got to run." - Matt Crownover (after Western States)
Trent, you say that runners need simple carbs. Would I be better off eating white bread/rice etc than the soy & linseed bread/black rice that I currently consume? Also I am vegetarian (have been for 20 years) and I am wondering if that will become an issue as I run longer distances. I eat a lot of tofu, nuts, cheese, bananas, eggs - but is that goung to be good enough if I am in this for the long haul? Claire xxx
