Sugar craving (Read 181 times)

    Here is a weird one that has never happened to me. The road map of the week was Sunday - 32 mile trail race Thursday - 10.5 mile hill run Friday - 10.5 mile hill run Very stressful week at work, deadline, deadline and also working an evening shift at the University lecturing. So I was basically rushed off my feet. On my return from my run on Friday I got into the house and just had a massive sugar craving and proceeded to drink two bottles of Locozade, a bag of sweets and then a pile of biscuits (cookies). No ill effects, I have been eating normally all week and have never had this before....has anybody else had this happen to them before?

      I get this a lot when doing a relatively high mileage. Almost every day!

       

       

        Big grin I have just got back from a very heavy and hard hill run, about 17.5 miles, it felt like 25 with the hills and I am just having a nive cool bottle of Lucozade and then I ma going to have some "proper" food Tongue
