As a runner, I know that food is fuel â and the better the fuel I put into my body, the better the performance my body gives me. What you eat 30 to 60 minutes before a run can dictate your performance; thus, it's important to make wise, healthy pre-run food choices. When training for a race, it's important to eat before your long runs (those that last more than an hour) and any key workout, such as hill repeats, a tempo run or a track workout. If you're running easy or on a recovery day, you should still have something to eat before you head out. Meghan Reynolds.
Drinking before you run. One way to minimise dehydration is to ensure that you begin a long run fully hydrated. In the days before a big race, it is a good idea to sip as much water as you can to keep your body topped up. On the day of the run, drink up to two hours before the start. Most experienced runners stop then, to avoid the need to urinate while they are running. You can begin drinking again immediately before the start.
