This superb volume from one of the world's most respected sports nutritionists combines personal experiences with professional expertise to provide readers with all the information they need to get the very best from their diet. "Food Guide for Marathoners: Tips for Everyday Champions" includes expert information on eating well, even when pressed for time; effective balancing of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats; choosing the best snacks for before, during, and after long runs; losing weight and increasing energy and vitality levels; and completing marathons with energy to spare. Whether you are a first time marathon runner or putting the finishing touches to a training diet, this new book will become an invaluable reference tool. Nancy Clark, an internationally known sports nutritionist, is board certified as a specialist in sports dietetics. She counsels both competitive athletes and casual exercisers, and specializes in nutrition for exercise, wellness, and the management of eating disorders. Her successful private practice is located at Healthworks, the premier fitness center in Chestnut Hill (near Boston). Her clients have included the spectrum from Olympians and members of the Red Sox, Bruins and Celtics to high school and collegiate athletes to "ordinary mortals", fitness exercisers, and weekend warriors. Her nutrition advice and photo have even been the back of the Wheaties box! Nancy writes a monthly nutrition column called "The Athlete's Kitchen" which appears regularly in over one hundred sports and health publications and websites.
