Congrats again on your race!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank You!  I wonder if we can lose weight while may eating carbs ONLY on days we intend to run a really great distance. Apparently this should be 3 times a week. So I wonder if we can have a high carb snack prior to that. I will try that for my next race coming up mid june and see what happens. Thank u again and good luck with ur training!
