Conquer the Volcano - The Ultimate Hiking Adventure!

“What should I eat before I exercise?” That’s a key question—as well as what to eat during extended exercise—that runners commonly ask me, a sport nutritionist. While they know the words carbs, proteins and fats, they often don’t know how to translate those words into food choices. Hence, the goal of this article is to offer specific food suggestions to fit a variety of exercise situations. This is far from a complete list! Please be sure to experiment with new pre- and during-exercise foods to learn which ones settle best in your gut, don’t “talk back” and enhance your performance.
