Page THE HERALD OUTLOOK Saturday Septembers 1990 Carbohydrates number one choice for marathon runners It no secret that in food fitness circles carbohydrates are the number one choice of athletes in training for a marathon The 26 mile race requires maximum en durance and complex car nee pasta potatoes bread grains and legumes pro vide the most efficient for the athlete body It is a tradition that on the eve of a race marathoners around the world feast on carbohydrateladen dishes The Saturday night before the Shoppers Drug Mart Toron to Marathon more than 500 run and their families are ex to attend the Uncle Ben Rice Bash at the Hotel The delicious rice dishes which will be served to the marathon en have been created by three of Toronto s finest chefs Jamie Kennedy of Christopher McDonald of Santa Fe Bar and Grill and Christopher Boland of Trapper s Restaurant EXPERT GIVES ACTS ON CARBOLOADING Combining an interest in tion and sport S food scientist and marathon runner Lamar Johnson has a special knowledge of the fits of carboloading Complex carbohydrates like put glycogen directly into the tissue and liver As a of immediate energy this is important for marathon runners anyone involved in athi t as well as growing active children says Johnson BASIC FASTS ON intake of high levels of car bohydrates 60 to per cent of total calories is the key to enhanc ing endurance training and com performance Fat in the diet does play a role in providing a concentrated source of calories However it takes significantly more time to replenish glycogen stores on a high fat diet Also a high

overrated as a performance food for athletes Protein intake should be maintain ed between 10 and 15 per cent of total It has been proven that diets exceeding this level do not improve endurance per formance A high carbohydrate diet enhances the storage of glycogen or muscle starch muscle tissue Complex carbohydrates help to increase the speed at which glycogen is replenished after exer else and can create a condition called glycogen tion where resulting muscle glycogen levels actually exceed normal preexercise levels During aerobic exercise glycogen and fat are broken down completely to obtain the most energy for exercise The level or intensity of exer determines what proportion of fat vs carbohydrates is used for fuel high intensity exercise the body uses glycogen as the fuel source This results in the rapid depletion of glycogen The overenthusiastic person going out for the first day of training will use mostly glycogen instead of fat for energy Using a variety of car bohydrate sources such as rice wheat and potatoes as opposed to a single source such as pasta can maintain interest in meals while providing maximum nutritional benefits A ZESTY DISH FOR RUNNERS Here s a
