Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

What do you use for your post run refuel? Is it a shake or a supplement or just a glass of water?

my trip away, spending time with other runners got me thinking that I should pay a bit more attention to how i refuel. (I often just grab a slice of toast and a cup of tea) So i wondered what other Fetchies do and if there are any reccommendations or things to avoid.

tuna buttie did the job, especially when I had a longish drive home. Got the idea from RW from a time now lost in the mists of racing.

Any food that I can get my grubby paws on...including an electrolyte drink to replenish the electrolytes. If it's going to be a while before I can get anything, I'll make a protein shake for afterwards.

Depends how far I have run as well, higher mileage would be chic milk, packet of crisps for salt replacement and a yogurt.

Mrs Jigs, Garfield: I'm combining your two ideas, using double choc & peanut butter flavour protein shake [water based]. Gym owner suggested more protein might help knee recovery.

Yes swittle, many people forget about the need for protein for recovery/healing.

So I was wondering about protein shakes? I thought I might try some after harder runs. Any brands that you'd suggest or are disgusting? ( I fancy the chocolate flavour idea )
