What to Eat Before A Race

August 22, 2013 By Complete Runner

What to Eat Before A Race

It’s the morning of your big running event but what do you eat for breakfast? You know you need to eat before the race to perform your best, but you also don’t want to eat something that will upset your stomach and cause you to pull off the course into the weeds either. So, what can you eat that is easy on your stomach and give you great nutrition before a race?

Believe it or not, the best thing to eat before a race is a meal replacement bar.  Yep, good nutrition isn’t super complicated!

Make sure it is all natural, even raw, so your body will accept and digest it easily and faster than eating processed foods.  These bars are made specifically for athletes to eat before their event, so they have the right nutrients that your body needs. Why eat toast when you can fuel up with a bar that that everything your body needs, and nothing more?

Stop by our large nutrition section at Complete Runner to check out our variety of meal replacement bars, along with energy chews and gels, post-race proteins, and hydration electrolytes that offer the total race day nutrition needed for any running or walking event.
