HELP! I don't want my body to shut down.
Hi guys! I need some serious help! I am currently training for a half marathon. I run 3 to 4 times a week, 60 minutes each, and burn 600-800 calories per workout. Before I started training, I was eating 1230 calories a day. Comfortably. Because I am becoming a lot more active, I know I should up my calorie intake - I don't…
Is 1230 cals/day too low?
Is 1230 cals/day too low for someone that runs 3/4 days a week? (Soccer practice two days a week, one or two games on the weekends. I am also going to start training for my next half marathon.) Ps. If I burn 800 calories, I'll consume half of those back by eating more, so my in take for a day like this would be 1630.
