## Caption

Right now I’m locked in on building speed with the goal of breaking a sub-20 5K, something I haven’t hit in my two years of running, and with 3–4 run days plus 3 lift days each week, some sessions have to double up, so my nutrition has to be dialed in to support performance, recovery, and keeping my body composition tight; on days like this I’m eating at maintenance or slightly above to fuel output without adding unnecessary weight, focusing on enough carbs to power sprints and lifts, protein to support muscle, and overall consistency across meals, and tracking everything in myfitnesspal keeps me accountable and removes guesswork; 8 more weeks, sub-20 is the target, then it’s on to the next 🫡

Meal Breakdown:

Meal 1 (pre sprints): 500 calories 
Meal 2 (post sprints): 1000 calories
 
4-6 hour gap - Replenish + Recover

Meal 3 (pre lift): 500 calories
Mea 4 (post lift): 1000 calories 

Total calories 3000 ish 
Macros: 200 protein, 404 carbs, 65 fats
