Hungry Girl!
I have been the bottomless pit today! My stomach just keeps growling! Perhaps it’s because I didn’t eat a very substantial dinner after the race last night? I did eat breakfast 30 minutes earlier than I usually do today. All I know is that I’ve been hungry all day!
Around 10:00, my stomach starting rumbling… and not a subtle grumble, a full-on feed me grumble! I decided to listen to my (loud) stomach and buy myself a snack to hold me over until lunch. I purchased a cinnamon raisin muffin from the cafe, and enjoyed it with my coffee.
My snack held me over nicely for a few hours. Around 1:00, I started to get hungry again. Today’s lunch was a Joseph’s pita filled with roasted red pepper hummus, spinach, broccoli, red peppers, cucumbers, chick peas, jalapeños, and feta. A wonderful mix of ingredients!
The Joesph’s pitas are rather thin, so after the first bite, my veggie pita completely fell apart. It ended up being more of a pita salad than sandwich– I ate most of it with a fork.
My afternoon snack is a banana and a couple of very broken pizzelle. The plan is to wait a few hours to eat my snack, but we’ll see what my stomach decides to do! I’m an eating machine today!
Happy FRIDAY, all! I can’t wait for the weekend to begin!

I definitely would get hungry after that run… You probably need the fuel after working out so hard
After I do a bike race, I am starving the next day too! Looks like you have some great, healthy options too!

Yeah, if I don’t properly fuel after a long run I am hungry the next day. Make sure you are getting enough fluids too! You might be dehydrated.
