Favorite Training Foods

When I train later in the day I just LOVE a meal of 2 x poached eggs and a large serving of 'healthy' baked beans (eg low salt & sugar), often followed by a banana. I threw down a plate of that last night after my run - it goes down easy and you can make it in 6 mins after your session..........

Otherwise, I seem to eat a lot of yoghurt when I'm training. I get the Onken brand which gives a wholegrain fruit version (sounds weird but the grains in the yoghurt give it a great texture and reduce the GI considerably!).

I haven't had Onken yoghurt for years! I used to eats pints of it too. Didn't realise it had a low GI...Hmm, think I might have to pop round to the supermarket on the way home tonight to pick some up.

Otherwise I mostly just eat what I would normally have, but more of it after a heavy training session or race. Peanut butter and banana sandwiches are good at any time.

I *heart* burritos!  Rosted pork or grilled steak with all the fixin's.  YUM!
