🩵 What I ate the day before my long run 🏃♀️
I rarely post “day on a plate” videos because what works for me might not work for you and honestly, it changes all the time 😂
But here’s what yesterdays fuel looked like when high carb + low fibre was the goal. In no order fuel that was eaten ⬇️
🥣 Coco Pops (yep 😂 don’t come at me. If you need 20g carb and keep fibre low, 20g coco pops nails it! + Rokeby milk, I used 1/2 bottle for carb and protein. Don’t use if you have gut issues as the carrageenan can be inflammatory for some. It’s not an every day recommendation from me.
🍳 Eggs on white (low fibre) sourdough with microgreens, cucumber, tomato, avocado, pumpkin seeds & feta.
🍓 Yoghurt with berries + soy protein crisps for an extra protein boost.
🥪 Chicken salad sandwich ( of course 🥪).
🥤 Banana & mango smoothie with protein powder, creatine & electrolytes (because I’m a salty runner 🧂🏃♀️).
💊 Magnesium with nutrients for my nervous system and immune support.
Result, run felt ridiculously hard as it was a 20k hill run but my energy levels were good during and after 🙌🏼
Today it’s back to wholegrains, fibre, and all the colourful fruit & veg 🌈
