The Joy Of Marathoning
I have a rule about what I can eat the week before a marathon. It’s a simple rule – I can eat anything I want, and as much of it as I feel like, as long as it is primarily carbohydrates and protein. Today’s lunch (and yesterday’s lunch) was at Jerry’s Deli in South Beach.
Matzo Brie and Kasha Varniska. That feels somehow fitting for a high carbo/protein meal in South Beach.
I have a very similar rule about eating post marathon. I did one last week in Phoenix. According to my GPS, I went through 3,600 calories on that journey. Thus, the rule I follow is identical, only it is all washed down with a beer or three. Where are you running?
Cheers
