I guess if you're going to run 300 miles, you can eat whatever you want. I've heard of carbo-loading, but good lord man that's crazy! Once my toes get all better I'm gonna get me a good pair of running shoes and probably sign up for a 5k. Gotta practice what I preach right? -Steve Ha, that’s hilarious on the Round Table being able to deliver to an intersection. I guess if you’re going to run 300 miles, you can eat whatever you want.

I fond out about it first from Jeff Galloway's books on marathon training - his website has a lot of good info as well: http://www.jeffgalloway.com/ As for Pizza Hut while running? Actually Dean Karnazes recommends Round Table as they are the only major chain that will deliver without an address - he just picks an intersection where he expects to be in 30 minutes and they'll show up. Of course he's usually in the middle of a 100+ mile run when he's refueling on a large pizza, cheesecake and coffee, so it may not be such a good idea if you're just working up to a 5k. His book ('Ultramarathon Man') is a good read though if you're looking for inspiration - he's done stuff like run over 300 miles non-stop, but he didn't really get into running seriously until he was 30 after not having run since high school.
