From world-class marathoner and 4-time Olympian Shalane Flanagan and chef Elyse Kopecky comes a whole foods, flavor-forward cookbook that proves food can be indulgent and nourishing at the same time. This cookbook for runners that shows fat is essential for flavor and performance and that counting calories, obsessing over protein, and restrictive dieting does more harm than good. Packed with more than 100 recipes for every part of your day, nutritional wisdom, and inspiring stories from two fitness-crazed women that became fast friends over 15 years ago, Run Fast Eat Slow has all the bases covered. You'll find no shortage of delicious meals, satisfying snacks, thirst-quenching drinks, and wholesome treats -- all made without refined sugar and flour. Fan favorites include Can't Beet Me Smoothie, Arugula Cashew Pesto, High-Altitude Bison Meatballs, Superhero Muffins, Kale Radicchio Salad with Farro, and Double Chocolate Teff Cookies.… (more)

I enjoyed all the running info and vignettes. I made a few of the recipes, the granola, quinoa/black bean salad, beet smoothie, and toasted pumpkin seeds. The salad and pumpkin seeds were good, especially together, but the granola burnt and beets in a smoothie are kind of weird. I read both this and the Run Fast, Cook Fast, East Slow. I liked the info better in this book, and the recipes are more unique. ( )

Are you an athlete looking for recipes that will fuel your workouts, help you recover, and work to nourish and support your body? This cookbook is a wonderful collection of healthy recipes and tips from a collaboration between an Olympic athlete and a chef, who both know the importance of taking care of their hard-working bodies. While I personally work to steer clear of animal products, which this cookbook does use in some of the recipes, I still found a good stack of recipes that I can't wait to try out!

This seems really useful and the recipes are approachable, despite some more "unknown ingredients. I am thinking of purchasing after reading a library copy. That is a rarity for me. ( )
