Lunch was a green salad again, this one was with light Italian dressing and some roma tomatos that I grew in my garden. Breakfast today was flakes with blueberries. Blueberry season is about over, so I'll switch soon to raisins. In the winter, I make my own oatmeal and I put some raisins on it and a little brown sugar.
If I have a race on Saturday, I carb load with some pasta and meat sauce. I make my own meat sauce with crushed tomatoes, ground beef, spices, lots of garlic and a bay leaf. Pasta, I usually buy at the grocery, nothing fancy. After a race, I will hit a sports drink, but just one 12 ounce bottle. No more.
