PostRace Fuel - MMmmm
A key to a strong season is proper post race recovery. We all know to get a good cool down and to let our bodies have adequate rest after a hard weekend of racing, but what is the perfect post race recovery food you may wonder? What has the ideal blend of carbs, protein, fat, and deliciousness? No - its not the latest supplement rich, protein filled, fruity flavored powder.
The answer is Frozen Custard. Any flavor will do... although I would suggest getting multiple flavors as one scoop usually doesn't suffice after a really hard race. If you venture up to Wisconsin, there is no dearth of race refueling stations. However, sometimes it's hard to find a a place to refuel in Chicagoland. In these cases, ice cream is a suitable alternative. Local homemade ice cream is usually the best, but Ben and Jerry will always come through if you can't find a local creamery.
