  • Greek yogurt, protein bars (not the healthiest option, but I love sweet stuff in the am), Special K protein plus cereal, I love Flat Out brand flax wraps with almond butter or natural peanut butter. That's all I can think of right now!
  • I'd love to know that too! I have a really low resting heart rate (35-40 bpm) due to distance running for the past 3 years. I often wondering if I'm ever going to lose this last 10-15 lbs even though I burn 5000+ calories per week! (I meant to quote, sorry!)
  • I responded to another post about this a few weeks ago, so I just copied my answer again! Hope this helps!!! Are you new to running? Running is really hard on your body, and you should take it really easy when you first start. I started 4 years ago with the Couch to 5k program, it's a wonderful program that slowly builds…

  • That's one of the main reasons I started running long distances. Don't get me wrong I do love to run, but seeing 1000+ calories burns some days is pretty awesome! Knowing I can eat a little more that day gets me through the workouts some days!

  • Are you new to running? Running is really hard on your body, and you should take it really easy when you first start. I started 4 years ago with the Couch to 5k program, it's a wonderful program that slowly builds your body up to running.

  • Do your kids nap? Before my kids started school I'd put them down for their naps, go right down to the treadmill and watch some mindless TV. I could normally get a quick shower in before they were up again.
  • I'd do a small dinner at about 5:00. A peanut butter and jelly on whole wheat, a Clif bar, some thing like that, about 200-300 calories. Then, have a snack when you get home from your race. I've done many night 5k's and it works for me! Good luck!
