All time 2 worst pre training eats

Did this last week…
Sat down in front of the computer and snacked on wasabi peas. Felt like a run so I downed a little coffee and headed out the door. Oh the burning gurgle in my belly that day!

Yesterday…
woke from a nap and had some mellon with cayenne and lime juice (try this it’s good!). Realized I had an hour window and could fill it with a needed swim.
The sloshing acid pool in my stomach made itself apparent with every flip turn. :frowning:

and you?

i would add multiply flavors of chili after attending a cookoff, then running.

beer and red licorice. Worst heartburn ever

Pretty much anything carbonated will turn any of my runs into agony. There aren’t much worse things IMO than gugrling/burping like mad while running.

Oddly, I can eat pretty much a full meal before a swim workout…so much for the old “don’t eat before you swim” thing.

Haven’t tried anything hot, that just seems to have disaster written all over it. I can say that bratwurst and beer is a bad idea.

White castle sliders. Ooh…the pain…

As much as I love Thai food a few weeks ago, had some curry soup (Tom Kha Gai) and spicy noodles before an hour and a half run. Felt like crap the entire run, actually I think I had to make a quick circle back to the hacienda to take a crap 10 min into the run.

"beer and red licorice. "

I’ll second this one. Nice to hear I’m not the only dope to try this.

V-8 juice and anything.

"beer and red licorice. "

I’m getting nauseous just thinking about that combo…

A tuna sandwich… they just don’t want to stay down when the heart rate goes up.

Fried Spam and Velveeta with Mayo…RedBull chaser…

Anybody ever eat spaghetti before a hard swim session?

Anybody ever keep it down?

Reading this thread makes me feel like taking a Zantac.

Costco dipped cone, with nuts. Then hill repeats.

I’m surprised no one has chimed in with dairy foods yet:

Ice cream, sour cream, butter; you get the idea.

I’ve had such bad experienced that I’m starting to seriously think about dumping dairy all together. But man, I really love ice cream.

bar-b-q pork rinds and funyons

I ate spaghetti before a hard night of drinking! Most of it came up that night over the porch, but was going in the morning. I think the apartment cats woke up with a hang over.

As far as pre training eats, don’t do Flaming Hot Cheetos!

A gallon of Parmalat milk… Mmm, Mmm, good…

A few years ago I had bacon with whipped cream, then went out for a long run. It just seemed right at the time.

It wasn’t.

After having mucho beer and other alcoholic beverages, I just ordered a pizza. we will see how that sits for my 50 mile ride tomorrow. BTW, I’m going out tomorrow night, too, with an 8am swim session, followed by yoga, and then another bike run. Fun, fun!
