Through my seemingly endless training for the London Marathon, the most challenging part (bar the running itself) was nailing the pre-run snack.
I knew it was important but when you’re waking up at the crack of dawn to sneak some miles in before the working day, the last thing I wanted to do was eat – I’m not a breakfast person at the best of times. But as the runs got longer and more regular, I felt my energy depleting and the importance of consuming something felt more pressing.
