First mountain trail 50k race complete with 3500 calories burned and a remaining 2500 from yesterday.

The real question is . . . What beautiful few indulgences do we get to have today MFP fam?

    Granted over the next few days ofcourse, can’t eat 2500 extra in a single sitting or I may get sick :D

    First of all, yes yes yes awesomeness!!! I want to run one someday! Go you!!! Enjoy your day and your indulgences!

    For me, they'd be cookies, cake, custard or ice cream and french fries!

    Definitely thinking of rotating some cake, some ice cream, and maybe some good beer as a treat these next 3 days! I don’t think my stomach could stand the grease from fries atm tho :(

    Congratulations! My first 50k is coming up this Sunday. I haven't really decided what to eat afterwards.

    Actually, if my post-marathon state is any indication, I won't want much of anything that evening, but I'll be ready to eat everything over the next 2-3 days.

    Exactly what I’m experiencing right now. That’s why I’ve decided for the next 3 days to eat about 500 or so extra/above maintenance
