Food intake in general

All this milkshake talk, makes me sound like a fatass.  But, other than my milkshakes, I'm really the 8th wonder of the world when it comes to atheltic nutrition.  

Take for instance today:
Pre run - bowl of fat free milk, with kashi cereal
Immediately after the run: 12oz organic chocolate milk.  180 calories, 27g carbs, 8gr protein for recovery.
Post run bfast - 2 organic yoghurts, 2 hard boiled egg whites, and a kashi granola bar
Drive up to the office:  16ox Nuun
Lunch with client - Side salad with fat free dressing and grilled chicken, Turkey sandwich on wheat, mustard, spinach and tomatoes only.  Grapes instead of chips.
Afternoon snack - two hand fulls of walnuts and almonds, and an apple.
Dinner will be a bowl of whole wheat pasta with homemade tomato sauce made from scratch from all fresh ingredients (no canned sauces here!), and a couple pieces of toast with spray butter and a little garlic salt

Goal everyday is 70oz of water. 

So yeah, the milkshakes are decadent, but I know what it's gonna take to hit my sub-3 in Boston while running 80 mile weeks, with a hard 14 mile tempo run on Tue and a hard 13 mile hillworkout on Thursdays!

Full disclosure: happy hour tonight, so probably 4 beers or so.
