DocMoye Oct 2019 6:46pm, 26 Oct 2019 30,555 posts	0 DocMoye 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.
swittle Oct 2019 6:54pm, 26 Oct 2019 57,921 posts	0 swittle 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.

Garfield Oct 2019 7:11pm, 26 Oct 2019 11,165 posts	0 Garfield 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.
Mrs Jigs (Luverlylegs) Oct 2019 7:11pm, 26 Oct 2019 29,038 posts	0 Mrs Jigs (Luverlylegs) Depends how far I have run as well, higher mileage would be chic milk, packet of crisps for salt replacement and a yogurt.

swittle Oct 2019 7:13pm, 26 Oct 2019 57,922 posts	0 swittle 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.
Garfield Oct 2019 7:17pm, 26 Oct 2019 11,166 posts	0 Garfield Yes swittle, many people forget about the need for protein for recovery/healing.
DocMoye Oct 2019 7:23pm, 26 Oct 2019 30,558 posts	0 DocMoye 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 )
