Food Before a Run

tallen3687

I have an 8K Saturday. I will only be able to run about three miles of it (never managed to get motivated enough to get in shape for it). What do you suggest I eat the night before and the morning of? I will be eating about 2 hours before starting. Thanks for any advice.

You should eat whatever you've eaten before runs during your training runs. Don't try new foods right before a run, you might live to regret it.

Thanks. I usually run at night and don't eat anything until I am done.
