When you eat is as important as what you eat before a swim meet. Eating breakfast is important, preferably four hours before you swim in a race. Slow-cooked oatmeal cereals with low fat yogurt or eggs with whole grain toast provide some protein along with complex carbohydrates to help fuel your energy needs.
Experimenting in your training with eating and running will let you know just how much you are able to eat before a run. For the best training results though, allow three to four hours after eating before running, especially if the workout calls for some intensity. All the best, Susan Paul, MS.
