Its exhausting. The one thing that i enjoy most about finishing these races is i can eat WHATEVER i want that day and pretty much for the next few days. Finishing is a great reward but eating everyting and anything is even better!Dbarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16741345756569823837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475703851125751608.post-3651921924930970672012-01-22T12:26:00.450-05:002012-01-22T12:26:00.450-05:00After my Portland marathon, I had trouble eating, ...After my Portland marathon, I had trouble eating, I felt so sick. So I think I was dehydrated. It was a rainy, cool day, so I don't think I drank as much as I should have as a result. I eventually got my appetite back, though, and definitely did my share of eating!Lisa from Lisa's Yarnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05335500882510597919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475703851125751608.post-87173540008321735332012-01-20T15:42:56.688-05:002012-01-20T15:42:56.688-05:00mmmmm - reward food.

However, after trying a <a href="http://juliekinnear.com/blogs/controversy-gluten-free-diet.html" rel="nofollow">gluten-free diet</a>, for some people still very controversial, I realised my body felt so much better and my muscles recovered a lot faster.Peternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475703851125751608.post-83479055770635289422012-01-20T02:17:51.681-05:002012-01-20T02:17:51.681-05:00That's a lot of food!

When I started getting healthy I realized that I did that and asked myself, 'what kind of reward is a big fat ass and health issues?'. That is why I no longer "reward" myself for cleaning the house with a cookie. I also try never to give the kids a "treat" for doing something good.<br /><br />That being said, I still love to eat all of my unhealthy vises after a long run like a 26.2 ;)Wifey :)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6475703851125751608.post-89857150837643828732012-01-19T11:20:52.554-05:002012-01-19T11:20:52.554-05:00Good points here.

Why is food such a big reward to us? Cheers!B.
