The Runner's World Cookbook: 150 Recipes to Help You Lose Weight, Run Better, and Race Faster Description
Runners need to eat well in order to perform, and what they eat can have a direct influence on how they run.
The Runner's World Cookbook is the perfect combination of performance-boosting nutrients to maximize performance with easy, delicious, and quick recipes. This cookbook contains 150 recipes sourced primarily from the authoritative voice in running itself,
Runner's World magazine, along with exciting additional content. These recipes are intended to maximize a runner's performance and enhance nutritional benefits.
The book will include two recipe indexes with visual keys for classification at the start of each recipe, with V (vegetarian), VE (vegan), GF (gluten free), and more. The first section of the book focuses on nutritional information and staple ingredients every runner should know, and the second part of the cookbook illustrates how to turn these facts into delicious, quick, and nutrient-boosting meals through delectable recipes.
Every recipe will have an easy-to-follow icon system to identify key recipe attributes (i.e., recovery friendly; low-calorie; quick and easy), along with a nutrition guide that will offer readers tips on how to make the healthiest choices regarding that particular category of food. Divided by categories (Salads/Soups/Stews, Sandwiches/Wraps/Burgers, Pizza/Pasta, etc.), these recipes are presented by types of dishes runner can look to for satisfying performance needs in appetizing ways.

My daughter is a student-athlete in cross country and volleyball, my husband a long distance cyclist and I love to run. My motivation for considering this cookbook was the fact that we demand a lot out of our bodies physically, and I want each meal or snack we consume to help our bodies meet that demand (although daughter and husband would be perfectly happy refueling on Oreos!).
I purchased the e-version of this cookbook and have thoroughly enjoyed it. The recipes are divided in the usual cookbook manner (breakfast, main dishes, snacks, etc), but also by the way we would use the food: pre-run, recovery, etc. This has been a very useful tool as I plan my daughter's snacks between morning workout and school, school and afternoon workout and what she takes to eat prior to games/meets.
I work hard to put healthy food on our table, and I know that every recipe out of this cookbook will help me meet sound nutritional guidelines (read: no diet fads found in the cookbook). An emphasis on whole fresh fruits, vegetables and grains is found throughout the cookbook. Nutritional info is included at the end of each recipe.
The recipes are delicious...we haven't found one that we won't make again. I served the roasted pork tenderloin with winter vegetables to my foodie mother-in-law this past week and she requested the recipe! I love the breakfast selections...and for runners everywhere who love their Pancake Runs...there are pages of pancake options, from sweet to savory to spicy. Watch out IHOP!
For athletes who want recipes to help them compete and recover, this is a great resource. Run happy!

Finally, the perfect cookbook has arrived! Detailed nutritional information on each recipe is most appreciated, as are the tabs at the top of each recipe that indicates whether the recipe is "prerun" or "recovery," as well as which are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, etc. The book is filled with recipes with realistic ingredients that might already be in your fridge or pantry-- and the beautiful photos make everything look delicious. Have already tried several recipes and they are easy to follow and not at all intimidating to a home cook. Can't wait to cook and eat my way through this book!
