Question for runners
I see so many articles about what to eat AFTER a run, but when/what should I eat before my walk/run? For example, I ate a banana at 3:00pm and plan on running at 6:30pm with 20 minutes of yoga preceding. Should I eat something again to fuel my exercise, or is it something that is different for everyone?

Heart Rate Monitor
For a long time I didn't see the point in having a heart rate montor but now I highly recommend getting one. I always thought I'd work out hard with or without it.
