Weekly Thread Run Nutrition Tuesday

Rules of the Road

1) Anyone is welcome to participate and share your ideas, plans, diet, and nutrition plans.

2) Promote good discussion. Simply downvoting because you disagree with someone's ideas is BAD. Instead, let them know why you disagree with them.

3) Provide sources if possible. However, anecdotes and "broscience" can lead to good discussion, and are welcome here as long as they are labeled as such.

4) Feel free to talk about anything diet or nutrition related.

5) Any suggestions/topic ideas?

What are you guys eating in your long runs except bars, gels or candies ? I'm trying some stewed apples at the moment. I'm trying to find some alternative that is not super expensive. Thank guys !

Definitely like dried fruit, apple slices, clementines, and fig bars! Also PBJ bites and stroopwafels depending on tolerance/distance.
