Low carb and endurance running -- results of my experiment

Also, if I wanted to again participate in a 5K race, i would
definitely eat carbs prior. 5k is a very short run that is run at high
intensity. I could never run much longer distances at high intensity,
high or low carb.

I'm begining to think you are trolling!!

Well for whatever reason, none of the people in my running club are
fat, and
none of them need low carb diets to stay in shape. The fact that their
running
burns 3,000-10,000 calories a week might have *something* to do with
it, what
do you think ?

Donovan, this is cross posted to low carb folks. To agree with us is
tantamount to their diet is crock of ****. Save you energy, the LC folks
are like those still believing in the flat earth theory.

I agree and, probably, for healthy athletes, this diet is not
optimal. But, LC does not preclude long distance running, as some
might think.

Then you are living in a fantasy world or you haven't got any idea what
long distance running means. If you play this LC in a "long" race they
will take you out in a body bag if not put you on an IV with carbs to
keep you from dying.

So you're crossposting to groups where you don't even know anything about

Runners don't have problems eating at maintenance because they burn more
calories than the average couch potato?

PLEASE!

I highly doubt that fat people would want to belong to a running club...

So ? Do you think that the average runner needs a special diet, low carb or
otherwise to avoid getting fat ?
