Run HUNGRY

Is everyone excited for the Halloween Half?

I know we are!!!

We have been very busy the last few days getting Greensole Running up and running, and I apologize for the sporadic posts. We are all volunteers here, so I'm sure you can forgive and understand!

Now back to the fun stuff!

Online registration for the Provo Halloween Half has officially closed, so if you didn't register, the only option you have now is to register at the EXPO. This costs more, but it is still an option if you're heart is set on it.

However, feel free to start registering for our next event THE COLOR ME RAD 5K in St. George Utah.


This race will be a amazingly colorful 5k and a whole lot of fun, so come out and join us!

Now, where were we with our Not-So-Rules of Running?

1. Run WARM
2. Run EQUIPPED

so we introduce... 

3. Run HUNGRY

Some cini rolls I made earlier. Make a great run snack!

And no, don't actually run without eating... but rather run to eat and eat to run!

Yes, that's right, both!

Run so we can eat all that tasty food!

And eat good food so you can run more!

What we're eating is just as important as how much or how far we are running.

We should be eating enough carbs to fuel ourselves and enough protein to build muscle after a run.

Try this next time you run:

Before your run (30mins to 1 hours): Eat some carbs. Bread, sugar, fruit, oatmeal, rice, etc.

RUN

After your run: drink some water and have some protein. Meat, protein shake, eggs, milk, tofu, beans, etc.

You may feel better and see your progress improve faster.

Try it out!

Lace up and get running!
