I ran a half marathon on July 27, 2008. I couldn't have done it without Kate, my running partner (pictured). We were both hurtin' big time by mile ten (her knees, my back) but we persevered and crossed the finish line together.
Vegan fuel before the race: spelt toast, almond butter, raspberry jam, a banana.
Vegan fuel after the race: raisin bagel, orange juice, chocolate bar, hash browns, grapefruit juice, tofu/pesto/sundried tomato scramble, spelt toast with raspberry jam.
Also, I slept 13 hours the night after the race. I did the math because I'm really smart that way, and it works out to one hour of sleep per mile run.
There's no picture of me that I like, so here's one of Kate after she collapsed by the finish line.

you guys rule! you did that after the gathering? wow.
Thanks Jess! Yeah, I justified all those donuts I ate at the gathering as "carb loading" - ha.
Congrats, that's quite an accomplishment!
Belated congratulations!
