I have been competing in triathlons for two years now -- mostly sprint distance events, and a few olympic. My typical training week consists of 1-3 miles of swimming, 30-70 miles on the bike, and 10-15 running. This combined with the other facets of my life, not the least of which is my two-year-old son, have me now feeling pretty worn out. J

The miles were ticking away quickly as the brisk wind pushed us all the way back home. My fellow cyclist asks, “What are some good foods to eat after a hard five hour ride like today?”
