As a runner, I know that food is fuel â and the better the fuel I put into my body, the better the performance my body gives me. What you eat 30 to 60 minutes before a run can dictate your performance; thus, it's important to make wise, healthy pre-run food choices. When training for a race, it's important to eat before your long runs (those that last more than an hour) and any key workout, such as hill repeats, a tempo run or a track workout. If you're running easy or on a recovery day, you should still have something to eat before you head out. Meghan Reynolds.
Long Runs and Harder Workouts. If you have a long run or workout that is going to take more than 90 minutes to complete, you should try and get a little something in your stomach to give you some extra fuel. A medium sized snack or small meal 30-120 minutes before your run is optimal.
