Ryan Hall's Marathon Race Diet

6,000 Calories Per Day and Counting: Olympian Ryan Hall on What to Eat Before, During, and After a Marathon

November 1, 2012

Ryan Hall's Marathon Race Diet

1 / 7

by Michele Foley 4

Just in time for the upcoming NYC Marathon are these diet tips from Olympic marathoner Ryan Hall, who will also be racing on Sunday. At a brunch hosted by Nissan — Innovation for Endurance, I was able to sit down with Hall, who shared that during training, it's not unusual that he runs 20 miles per day, five days a week. Curious to know what kind of diet fuels this sort of endurance run, I asked Hall what he thought an ideal meal plan was for anyone running a marathon or half marathon. Check out what he had to say, and see what foods Hall eats during his training and the actual race.

I have to admit that while I was reading this article, all I could think about was how much chocolate I'd eat if I burned 6,000 calories a day...
