Running

Fueling up for longs runs (veggie style)

Hi folks, today I’m guest posting on my friend Stuart Holliday’s Sport Psychology and Coaching Blog. Stu is a sport psychologist in training and UKA coach and I’m honoured that he asked me to write for him.

The topic of my post: eating for long-distance running, an appropriate topic with the London and Paris marathons coming up in just over a month. But you will find no bagels or energy bars here – food isn’t just fuel, it’s for enjoyment and pleasure, too. My suggestions focus on real, whole foods, that are delicious to eat and just so happen to be rich in complex carbohydrates, the perfect fuel for long-distance running!

Now, without further adio, please head over to Stu’s and read:
