Ca (I've osteoporosis), multi vit, EPA/DHA (because I dislike fish). in week before and after a major endurance event I'll add som Zn, Echinacea and vit C.

Anyway, I've started to try the suggestions.
Last night had dinner at 9:15 straight after getting in from my long run, lasagne I had made myself.

This morning I had museli/milk at 6am, ran 90 min at 7:30, had fruit and brown toast straight after run, salad with chicken at lunchtime. I've a race this weekend so not doing anything else this evening.

Sound ok? It looks like the advice is to get the diet sorted out as a stand alone issure, rather than in conjunction with exercise. At this stage at least.
