    Currently training for an Ironman (6 wks into a 24wk program) and already fairly bored of my typical evening meals:

    Chicken breast, lots of vegetbale and sweet potato / wholewheat pasta with natural yoghurt and fruit for desert.

    Any inspiration from the forum for healthy meal ideas?

    Lean Protein, Veg or Salad and good carbs must feature 😀

    And to add to the moon/stick requirements, must be relatively quick to prepare, not much spare time in the evenings 😕

    Fish features a lot in our diet, i love mackerel and salmon, don’t write off potatoes either, good after a hard training session.

    BBC Good Food has a whole load of marathon recipes:

    http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/search/guides-techniques?query=marathon

    I use their website loads, they have some excellent stuff on there.

    FWIW I eat a lot of curry (homemade, so not too much fat or salt), pulses (chickpeas are a favourite), veg, etc. Seems to work so far.

    Edit: I don’t worry too much about not eating bread, rice, potatoes etc – I’m training hard enough as is, and I’m not 100% convinced by the “science” of paleo diets etc.
