Favorite pre-race/post-race foods.
My favorite pre-race is a subway sandwich. When I ran the 2012 Boston marathon, Wesley Korir won the race. In an interview, he said he eats a subway sandwich before his races. So I tested it out at the 2012 Kona marathon and ate a footlong. I puked after I crossed the finish line. Since then, I stick to 6 inch.
