Hi all
I've only run 2 marathons, Athens 2016 (4:13) and Antwerp 2018 (3:44) and I'm running Amsterdam in October. My ultimate goal is to get to a BQ time (sub 3). Currently following Floris Gierman's free pdf guide.
I always run on an empty stomach as my runs are before work at 5:30am generally and finish anywhere between 06:00 and 08:00am.
I'm interested in time restricted eating with an 8 hour feeding window.
Question: must I eat and therefore break my fast within a 30 minute window of my run i.e. eat at 8:00am and fast from 16:00....or postpone eating until 11:00am so I can eat until my usual time of 19:00 (2 hours before bed)?
Any advice appreciated!
All the best
Deano

The Phil Maffetone/Tim Noakes high fat low carb makes me feel 100% better...this is just an additional tweak.
I really don't think you're going to get any performance benefits. I certainly wouldn't be waiting for 3 hours to eat after running, particularly after a long run or hard session.
Sounds like a bit of a risky diet to me. You could easily end up affecting your ability to run a good session in the morning if you haven't got things right the previous day.
Listening to Joe Rogan, Tim Ferriss and Rhonda Patrick podcasts...it just sounds like a worthwhile experiment but was hoping someone out there was already successfully doing something similar.
I've never heard of Joe Rogan, Tim Ferriss and Rhonda Patrick, although I just googled Tim Ferriss and can't believe anyone would take any notice of that stuff, self help gurus just make a lot of money out of gullible folk.
