What not to eat

[IanDarkpeak]

.....the night before and morning of a race.

This may have been covered before so im sorry for wasting a thread.

Ive heard dairy products are a no-no, and even fruit juice - dont know why.

But what other things should i avoid before a race.

Ta.

I try and stay away from any thing too heavy ie red meat. too much beer

For race mornings I have toast with honey and fresh juice (no dairy). if it takes me more than an hour to the start and it's a long race I'll have a bananna and energy drink on route but don't eat anything in the 1 hour up to the start.
