  1. LOL!!!! bahahaha so, so true. Your comics are great! I think you should make it a sunday tradition. I’ll supply my own chocolate chip pancakes :-D. My stomach also works on “lag time” , and it talks most the day after a long run. I do try my best to get in as much refuel as possible during the recovery window…I think the most satisfying thing I ever had was scrambled eggs made with chicken sausage, plus a cinnamon raisin bagel, followed about 2 hours later with a giant pumpkin scone from starbucks, and then baked ziti + galric bread for dinner lol. Food braggage….I’ve eaten almost all of a whole 12 inch pizza once. My boyfriend at the time and I ordered it, he ate one slice but then spent too much time taking a phone call and when he was done I’d eaten the rest….he was like “WTF” but hey, tyou snooze you lose with me hahaha

  2. I loved the comic! Haha, for me after running there’s usually a lag time of half an hour or so (perfect about of time for me to get to class before I get super hungry). And then for swimming it’s pretty much as soon as I get back to my house I’m starving.
    I like to eat carbs and proteins after I workout. My body craves them!
    I’ve out eaten a few of my guy friends with large amounts of food after a big workout or somthing. I definitly was given some new found respect 😛

  3. Cait, I love your blogs, and the comics!!! They amaze me! Ever and again you touch a note that resonates with (even) me! I turn 75, (Yeah! Years!) in a few days! Resonant examples: “… sleep and I have a fickle relationship:!! – (Often find myself at 3:00am, up reading your stuff ); AND “… connecting with other runners and those sweat obsessed …” – (I am a half-century passed my running heyday, yet you make that connection!!!)

    While my form of fitness has ‘devolved’ (?) to a bicycle, I LOVE it! To the tune of averaging and hour a day for the past eight years!
    Thanks to the “Arty Runner Chick” and following some of the world best, I feel like I’m “connecting with other runners…”

  4. Haha Cait you are a comedy GENIUS and never fail to make me laugh!! 😀

    I am always crazy hungry the day after a long run, and on rest days! I think my appetite is slightly supressed when I run, but on rest days it is INSANE and I eat everything in sight! I AM THAT MAN IN THE FRIDGE! 😛

  5. Hahahaha I love it! Does a pint of Ben and Jerry’s count as a food accomplishment? That was technically after my first round of finals in college, not after a run, but it’s one of my prouder moments. 🙂

    • glad u liked! hmmm, i’ll give u credit for that pint but i do have to let u know that i make fun of anyone who DOESN’T eat the whole thing. 🙂
