 It IS possible to eat real food while working out!
Try this homemade "gu" recipe inspired by Run Fast Eat Slow for your next long run/ride: •1/2-3/4 c cooked sweet potato •1/2 c dates, no pits •2 T nut butter •1 t chia seeds •1/2 t cinnamon •1/4 t sea salt •Optional 1-2 T cocoa powder or 1/2 to 1 T fresh grated ginger •Water as needed for desired consistency Blend all in food processor and eat from a reusable pouch such as @rei Coghlan’s squeeze pack (6 oz). On a long run, I take a few squeezes every 40-60 min, more frequently as I go longer, always sipping water as I eat. You can freeze extra in the tubes and defrost in the fridge the night before you run. Steelhead Coaching stole the show on this one!! We can't wait to try it out! Comments are closed.
