In the spirit of carb-consumption for tomorrow's long run: I baked bread.
(I promise not to pretend to be a food blogger often, but this baking event is runner-specific.)
The focaccia recipe I use (
available here) calls for rosemary and olives. I skipped that part tonight because the leftover bread makes really excellent french toast.
(Perfect post-run breakfast!) But olive and rosemary french toast sounds like a candidate for the
Worst Thing I Ever Ate. So. No rosemary. No olives. Otherwise no deviations from the recipe.

| Kneading (and yes, that is an oven burn / battle scar on my wrist)... |

| Those little yeasties do amazing things! |

| Into the oven. |

| If this doesn't give me enough fuel for a long run, nothing will. |
Have you ever tried baking bread?
What are your favorite foods to eat the night before a long run?
