Mm flapjack is good!
If I left 12 hours after eating then ran I'm pretty sure I'd fall over - my blood sugar levels are very keen to plummet given the slightest chance, i.e. if I don't eat every few hours!
Just been looking at my average paces for each month last year (well from May when I started using Fetch to record runs). Don't know if it's interesting to anyone else but it is to me - had a few physical niggles Aug-Oct and a lack of motivation/ feelgood factor with the whole thing (obviously not for the whole three months but there's an obvious impact there). Liking the general trend over the last few months though
May 11:32
June 10:34 (training average 11:04, two races average 08:34)
July 11:03
Aug 11:26
Sep 11:17
Oct 11:25
Nov 10:37
Dec 10:35
Jan 10:27
Average for a tempo run (since I started doing them properly in Nov) is 09:18, hill work 10:48 and long run 11:10.
Yes I am a bit bored at work today

I'm the same squigg!
My Dad (who was a competitive fell runner) used to swear by my Mum's home made flapjacks for energy (and smearing cooking oil all over his legs:eek:)
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -

As examples, the last time I'll eat before tomorrow's parkrun will be about 6pm this evening......so thats 15 hours before the race.
And then again on Sunday, which will be a 10 mile run at 8am followed by a 10 mile race at 9:30am, the last time I will eat will be about 6pm tomorrow evening.....14 hours before.
It seems the optimal way to do things for me....Gt NW 1/2 Marathon 21/2/2010 (Target=1:22:59) (6:20/mile) 1:22:47 (6:19):j:j
