On Food Fridays I will tell you about everything I ate that day. Healthy or unhealthy: you will see it all.

Today is the day before Tartu Olümpiajooks 10K, so today I consciously tried to eat more carbs: grains and sugars. I also tried to drink more water. Gotta have some glycogen stores and stay properly hydrated for tomorrow’s race in 30 degrees Celsius. 

 

Breakfast: 9.45 AM

• 1 carrot

• 1 small banana

• half a cup of regular oats 

• half a cup of oat bran

• 1 cup of water

• 1 cup of milk

• salt

• 1 teaspoon of unrefined Demerara sugar

• dark cocoa powder

 

Lunch: 3.15 PM

I was outdoors all day, first on the beach and then in a park. The weather is lovely and I’m trying to spend as much time as possible outside. So I had a little picnic on the park bench. 🙂

• 2 slices of rye bread with seeds

• 1 carrot

• 2 chunks of parsnip (kaalikas)

• 1 large apple

• 1/4 cup of whole grain pasta

• 70 grams of chicken thigh meat

• 0,5 egg

• 100 grams of frozen veggie mix (cauliflower, broccoli, carrot)

• olive oil

• salt & pepper

• ketchup

• teriyaki sauce

 

Dinner: 7.30 PM

• 2 slices of rye bread with seeds

• 1 large slice cheese

• 1 tomato

• 200 grams of curd (kohupiim)

• 100 grams of kefir

• 1/4 cup of oats

• 2 teaspoons of unrefined Demerara sugar

• 1 small banana

• raspberries

 

Hopefully enough carbs for the 10K. I’m actually pretty scared! 30 degrees and sun. It’s even tiring to walk not to mention run and furthermore: race. There are 3 drinking points but still: the heat kills you. I would like to get a personal best tomorrow but I’m not going to get my hopes too high. Wish me luck!

Next Food Friday in a week! 🙂
