We've had lots of discussion about what to eat/drink while in training or while actually running the marathon, but I'd like to be nosey and ask you all:
a] what will you eat the night before the race to 'carbo load'??? and
b] what will you reward yourself with food and drink-wise when all this FLM madness is over???

b) A return to eating normal quantities of food rather than the non-stop troughing that comes along with marathon training. And a can of cold beer.
Beer is of course carbs!
b) a kingsize snickers bar and a pint of cold beer. HMmmm, beer
But then maybe just beer at it is the perfect food
After I will have Steak Chips Beans, Chocaloate fudge cake, 6 pints of Stella, 20 Marlbro Lights and a packet of Bourbons with a hot chocalate.
After - I fancy steak, jacket potato and salad washed down with bubbly and a fine wine!!!
Pizza and champers after - it's tradition in our house...
Although straight after I suppose a rather dry cheese and tomato sandwich!!
Straight after the race will be a protein bar & a couple of bagels followed by lashings and lashings of ale in the thistle with the other survivors & the forum supporters. Bugger the rehydration - that's for later!
For the record I'm going to go for 2 plates of Pasta and tomato sauce the night before and lots of water.
When it's over and I've grabbed my kit bag: sandwiches and a mars bar, more water.
Later that evening:
Steak, a big one. Chips, lots of em. Salad, just to look at. And beer for for refuelling.
