Jelly - I'm not sure of Paleo snacks for mid race. I would usually eat oranges and nuts on my long runs and races, that and drink a sports drink despite it not being strict. Heck you can eat anything if the race is over 10k and you're going to just burn it right off.
For those of you still struggling, JUST START. One of the hurdles is the resistance people create around needing a gym, needing the right clothes, or any equipment. We can all squat, or quarter squat, or hold a plank, or do a wall sit. Starting with 5 reps every hour on the hour leads to 60 reps of something during a 12 hour day. That's just 5 reps! That can take 6 seconds.
Imagine a week of 5 reaping something every hour! 60 squats for 7 days is 420 squats. When was the last time we did 420 squats in a week? See what I mean. Just start moving more. 1 walk out to the mailbox and back every day is how you start. I used to have clients film their mailbox walk with their cell phones and text me the video for accountability. A year later they were running races.
It's all about the start and doing something every day to build momentum.
For those of you trying to lose weight - start with breakfast - eat healthy one, with no sugar and limited grains. YES you can eat vegetables for breakfast. My standard breakfast is 5 eggs, three mushrooms, a big handful of spinach, and avocado, some turkey and an apple. All washed down with a cup of coffee and a big glass of water.
Just start!
