MY FAVORITE SNACKS FOR RUNNING FUEL

Feb.posted by Paula Leave a Comment

This post may contain affiliate links which won’t change your price but will share some commission.

These are a few of  My Favorite Snacks for Running Fuel. If you’re serious about running, you need to put as much thought into the foods you consume as you do your workouts. Running alone will only get you so far, you need nutrients and, yes, calories. Try the recipes and foods below to see what works best for you. I enjoy these pre-run, post-run, and for snacks.

HEALTHY LUNCHES

These foods are ideas of healthy snacks that can supply you with the energy you need to run your best. Most are portable. Sometimes I need to run errands before I go home after a run. As well, really, who wants to make something right after an exhausting long run?

In addition to the ideas pictured below, try also

  1. Raisins and other dried fruit
  2. Applesauce pouches
  3. Fig Bars
  4. Apples plus nut butter
  5. Air-popped popcorn
  6. Low-fat chocolate milk
  7. cottage cheese or Greek yogurt and fresh fruit
  8. Pretzels
  9. Hummus and whole wheat crackers
  10. String cheese
