I'll have to try them steamed now that I've found a new vegetable I absolutely love. Pam: Thanks. That seems like a lot to eat and I'm used to running on an pretty much empty stomach. But any excuse to eat a bagel excites me so I just might pick one up today. It's all an on going experiment with this belly. Joanne: Thanks. In re- to the 10 miler, I'm going to enjoy the weather. My biggest fear is that my digestive system might get a bit "over active" if I try to fuel the run to much. I was planning on just a banana with 1 TBS of PB + a Gu about 2/3'ds way thru the run.

Slowly but surely. this looks pretty darn good though. Good luck on the 10 miler! It's really not that bad. I promise. And it will be much more fun if you're doing it in a group! I never used caffeine for my long runs (well I guess Gu gels had some caffeine but I only used those during the run). I woudl usually have a scoop of PB and a larabar to fuel me. Sigh I miss those days. .-= Joanne´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EatsWellWithOthers/~3/TEP9d5bDHyo/cinnamon-butterscotch-bars.html" rel="nofollow">Cinnamon Butterscotch Bars</a> =-.

Glorious antioxidants :)!! Good luck on your upcoming run! For a long distance like that have a white bagel (half or whole) with banana and p.b. plus your protein shake. Your body will need the carbs and the white bagel will digest quicker, which is what you want in this case. Plus having minimal fiber before a longer workout will ensure a less active digestive system during your run! Have you ever tried Gu packets? They contain glucose, fructose, and amino acids. This is really good to help fuel you during long workouts. It might help half way thru your 10k. I had the Tri-berry while skiing and it gave me the extra energy I needed and it did not upset my tummy. Some varieties contain caffeine as well.

We love carrots and beets, but usually steam the beets. My kids will love them too. These look stunning! We love carrots and beets, but usually steam the beets. My kids will love them too.
