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.
Here are some tips for meal planning before a long run: First, think about the timing of the meal. If you plan on a long run first thing in the morning, have a high-carbohydrate snack with a little protein 30-45 minutes before you run. A slice of bread or banana with a little bit of peanut or almond butter may work.
