[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because the same people who have the drive and motivation to be out running in the early morning are oftentimes the same people that have the drive and motivation to eat well and moderately.

Wrong. I have periods where I run over 50+ miles per week (female) and I love McDonald's and a Dairy Queen. Like every week. Both. And PASTA. Lots and lots of it!![/quote]

What does [i]over 50+ mean[/i]? 60 miles a week? What are you training for?

And yes, I've completed ironmans so know the training cycle well. Nourish yourself on what you like (for instance, McDonalds is a non food to me), but if you are running that much for no reason its a little odd. You may be just doing it so that you feel "allowed" to eat such junky food.

When I hit 40-50 MPW I eat an average of around 3000 calories a day. [/quote]

I sometimes do a Lydiard style plan. One phase calls for three of the weekly runs to be 10+ miles. I mostly run 5K's but occasionally half marathons. I run to compete so I'm not exactly recreational--under 20:00 for 5K, under 6:00 for a mile, around 1:30 for half marathon. [/quote]

Cool. Still not sure of your point? Is it that you run so much but aren't thin? Or you are thin yet eat McDonald's and Dairy Queen? [/quote]

I was responding to the person who said runners all eat well. And then someone else asked why I run over 50 miles a week at times. I mean, can someone even respond without another person butting I. Just for the sake of being a jerk? You're not responding to anyone's questions, you're simply here to act like an a**hole. Go be miserable somewhere else. [/quote]
