Healthy snacks for runners

Snacks list

Nuts

Nuts provide a good source of sustained energy due to their healthy fats, protein, and fiber content. This can be particularly helpful for runners, both before and after a run. The healthy fats offer long-lasting fuel, while protein aids in muscle repair and recovery after exercise. Additionally, nuts contain various vitamins and minerals, such as magnesium and potassium, which are important for muscle function and electrolyte balance, crucial for runners. Snacking on a small handful of nuts can be a convenient and nutritious way for runners to fuel their performance and support recovery.
