Pre-Race Diet (No Goat)

Yeah, so it's Los Chupacabras (de la Noche!), but I'm not sucking any goats in preparation for tonight's run.

(Or for any other purpose.)

How I'm getting today's Fun Run fuel (w/ lots of water):

Breakfast

• frittata w/ roasted asparagus, cauliflower, and red pepper
• orange juice

Morning Snack

• cashew + date bar
• hot green tea

Lunch

• bean burger patty w/ mayo + pickles
• apple
• peanut butter

Early Dinner (planned)

• brown rice w/ black beans

Pre-race (planned)

• Gatorade Prime 01 pkt

During-Race (planned)

• Clif Shot Bloks

Post-Race (included w/ registration)

• beer
• cheeseburger
• fries
• soda

I know -- I shouldn't depend on food that has to be capitalized, but we've been using the Gatorade and Shot Bloks for our long runs and they work well first thing in the morning. We may not need them so much at night. We'll see.

Do you have to plan your meals for events like this? What works well for you?
