Posted: 05/25/10 - 06:48 Post subject: A BIG steak with chips is what you need before a Marathon?

Here are a few tips for a pre-marathon diet:

1) Before a marathon my advice is to stick to a big piece of steak and chips. The steak is full of protein and the chips are ideal for a high-carbohydrate intake. For those people who suggest that you are overloading your stomach know nothing about training. I have been running for over 20 years and have completed endless marathons all over the world. I have steak with chips about three times a week and find it to be more beneficial for my body than the frequently recommended bowl of pasta and vegetables.

and much much more..

Do you agree, would love to hear any comments!
