February 8, 2017

    When I was training for my full marathon last year, after every long run I would crave Chick fil a biscuit chicken sandwiches…my body was missing all the salt! Probably why I actually ended up gaining weight in the end, but after mile 15, that’s all I could think about! ????

    • Mmmm yum! And I am right there with you. After this weekend’s long run we had cinnamon rolls haha. It’s what got me through the 11 miles!
      And go you! I don’t think I’ll ever even attempt a full marathon. My limit is a half!

  2. Great tips!!! I’m always looking for new protein/fitness ideas for eating.

  3. I don’t run but if I eat anything before cardio I feel awful so I guess I’m into the fasting.

  4. Candy Kage says:

    I won’t be running anywhere anytime soon but will still enjoy making and enjoying these dishes for us to eat.

  5. Sarah Jean says:

    I make a green smoothie once a day but every time I try to photograph it, it looks nowhere near as yummy as yours does! haha. Also, love all the healthy food options. I’m not a runner, but these are great choices for anyone to eat.

  6. I have my third half on the 19! I just wrote a post about it! For me I need a decent meal before a workout or race! Weirdly eating a lot then running doesn’t bother me. I think you have to know your body

    I’m getting ready to start training fro a Spartan race and was looking for new healthy things to eat.

  8. Green smoothies are my FAVORITE! I love to add PB2 powder for a peanut butter banana flavor. yum!!

  9. Natalie says:

    All of these recipes look amazing! I’m not a runner, but I definitely will be adding these options to my recipe stash for healthy eating :)

  10. Jessica Bradshaw says:

    Yummm! It’s so green and pretty. :) I love it! Great tips. If I run right when I wake up and it’s only 3 miles, I can run on an empty stomach…otherwise, I need something. My go tos are avocado toast or a banana

  11. Neely says:

    I have a green smoothie every single day. I have for about 7 years and its made a huge difference!

  12. That green smoothie looks SO yummy. I’ve been craving green anything these days, I can’t wait to make!! I love juicing, but smoothies are honestly just easier. Thanks for sharing!

  13. Alexis says:

    Totally saving this! I struggle with knowing what to eat before and after a workout. That green smoothie sounds tasty too!

  14. I have that exact green smoothie every day – minus the frozen fruit and yogurt and i use flax. haha but basically the same!

  15. Jazzmine Woodard says:
