What do you normally eat before running? Unless it is junk food no need to change it.

I can’t exercise immediately after eating and I go to the gym first thing the day after fasting having had no more than two mugs of tea. I don’t have any problem doing an hour on a combination of rowing machine, cross trainer and treadmill followed by a swim. I have to admit I’m ravenous afterwards and have a decent sized but healthy brunch.

I know what you mean about exercise being harder after a fast day. I exercise very vigorously almost every day and I’ve been finding that not only does it make me hungrier on fast days (I have been exercising on fast days), but the day after is extremely hard if I don’t eat before I exercise. I usually get started about 6am too. My new strategy (I’m just starting this this week) is to not exercise on fast days and see if it makes the fasting easier. I’ve also been eating 1/2 cup of full fat organic yogurt about 1/2 hour-45 mins before exercise. This seems successful b/c I have more energy to get through the workout, and it has the side benefit of keeping me from being cavernously hungry after the workout so I can eat a more moderate breakfast. A hard boiled egg or banana works too. Hope that helps.

I’m an ICU nurse and work 12hr shifts and started having plantar fasciitis and orthofeet shoes have solved my problem. I wish they were a little more stylish, but at this point I choose style over function. I see that they have a new color and I will most definitely purchase these again when they need to be replaced. These fit the bill! and the return on size went very smooth. So I am so happy! and so are my feet!
