What do you guys eat the day before the marathon?? I'm trying to cut out the fiber, but so many carbs are loaded with fiber, so if I do that, it's like, what do I eat??? Maybe just cut out the whole wheat stuff and lesson the amounts of high fiber fruits and eat more veggies?

I just eat normally (but less fat- no dairy) and then eat grains for dinner w/ veggies.
I ate lots of carbs. I don't stuff myself (as in feeling sick).
Here's what I ate:
Bfast: oatmeal, banana, strawberries, walnuts, honey
Snack: Apple
Lunch: Turkey sandwich and potato fries (homemade), apple
Snack: Banana and Granola bar
Dinner: 3 large pieces of pizza; small side salad; large piece of apple cake
Is it sad that I still remember that??
haha! No, it isn't sad. I'll take the apple cake!! I think I need to bake some stuff tonight!!!!
I have always done the three days of protein and then the carbo load for two days and the normal balanced diet the day before and I've always liked it! I can't eat on marathon day though.
Hey, I'm bummed I'm just now realizing you're running Philly Sunday!! Life has been really busy and I haven't been exploring the blog world much. Good luck this weekend!! I'll be with the 3:40 group, would love to meet you.
As for eating, I eat pretty normal but I eat more for lunch and less for dinner. And I eat a little more carbs and cut back on the salads a few days before.
Just saw your blog through Natalie's - I'll be out there, too, probably starting with the 3:40 group... good luck!!
