Raw Distance Running

Any raw foodists out there who also like to do distance running? I'm really not into marathon distance any more but between 5-10 miles. How do you fuel yourself? I don't like eating fruit for it spaces me out. Is there anyone out there that is a distance athelete on the Wigmore/Clements/Cousens raw diet? What do you eat before a run to gain energy?

My experience:

-I used to run every day.....3-5 miles.....to help control my weight. After being all raw for a number of years....I found this level of intensity to be unnecessary to feel great...or control my weight....or to maintain good conditioning.

-Now: I've eaten nothing but fruit for the past few years (after a very gradual 2-5 year transition). It's just like before....it takes a week or two to build up good wind.....and muscle endurance.......but now I have less fatigue and more energy - for sure! And I only feel the need to run 1-2 miles a day.

-Just my experience.

Funny you say that.. I'm noticing I have been getting the "Runners High", without running.. If that makes sense.. I am feeling great without needing to do something externally to get there... This raw food idea is pretty dynamic!

Thanks..

Cool running site. I just watched an interview with Tim Vanorden on raw running. I'm not a runner, but it was very inspiring because the guy is like 38 and beating people half his age. Said he also cured his asthma and sports injuries, bad knees etc.

no. if you cant do the running correctly its not looking good for more "complex" physical activities.
