WHAT I EAT IN A DAY vlog *REALISTIC* by a female runner

[@adakin01]

I love how you did a "regular" day! I know when most youtubers do this they always make fancy stuff with loads of effort that is clearly not what you eat when you're starving or in a rush! 😋

[@SarahPlace]

haha yeah i know what you mean, you watch them and think who actually eats that or has time for that!

[@darrel.cooper]

Yes to snacking whilst the actual meal is cooking!

[@spelabarbic892]

Sarah, thanks for this video! I love that you did a realistic day of eating with regular but delicious and healthy foods. I think more people should put out this kind of positive content 😊

[@SiriusScientist]

I’d love to see a full week. I always love seeing what other people have as snacks during the week, particularly when on the go. Thanks for the video!

[@jamesshelley6478]

Think I need to move in with u and Ben, I need the motivation and the healthy food to get my running up too scratch! 🏃🏼‍♂️😆

She doesn't eat that much for someone who does so much cardio! She looks so chilled and happy you just click the like button automatically.

@NOTREALLY HANKAARON she needs them…

[@poisefree]

your lunch is something i also eat often - my mom brought me home that same nutritional yeast from the UK,, we do not have that one here in SA, it is sooo good i love it on pasta and potatoes,, i am vegetarian runner and steering away from all animal products to the best of my ability so love this video thank you

[@fahim113]

So glad to see someone of your calibre eats 'normal' food!

[@tomekwolny5606]

Nice, good on you. I would suggest: try the fermented version of the red grapes at night to assist with Blue Monday. :)

[@PartTimeTriathlete]

I love nooch and beans on a jacket but never thought to add pickle to the mix - will have to give that a go 😋

[@iftomatosareafruitwhyisntk4038]

Great video! I love yours and Ben’s what I eat in a day! Please do more in the future🌱Happy new year too!

[@SarahPlace]

thank you! and will do!

[@misiekstaszic]

Plan for 2021 year - more running than bicycling (952 kilometers of run since i started in october thanks to You and 14836 kilometers of bike ride in 2020 + 3250 kilometers e-bike ride) and, after this video - more healthly food! Regards, as usual you motivating me to good changes in my life Sarah! Stay safe and keep uploading 👌💪

[@SarahPlace]

thank you as always for your lovely kind words and support! so glad you're enjoying your running!

[@reginaldstampe3753]

Great to see you Sarah 👋👋 don’t forget UTDS in August (Belgium) great race. Thanks for the video. Cheers

[@libbysteele5723]

I'm doing Veganuary for the first time and you have made my day with the revelation (to me!) that malt loaf is vegan!!! Off to the shops immediately to get some haha!

[@SarahPlace]

they've only just changed the recipe this january, perfect timing!

[@libbysteele5723]

@@SarahPlace buzzing 🙌🏻 veganuary is much easier than I anticipated! Might try pickle with my jacket potato too, sounds nice 😋

[@SarahPlace]

@@libbysteele5723 yeah totally spoilt for choice these days! there's a substitute for pretty much everything!

[@rachelwarren2533]

Beans and pickle is a fab combination - thanks for the inspiration! Baked beans will never be bland again!

[@kimalexander4187]

Yes you gave me some great ideas especially on the potato...you and Ben always have great encouragement in your videos thank you.

[@mikecaseyoshea3594]

Literally make the same salad, chopped in that order!! Quick n easy. I just add a small squeeze of lemon after the balsamic and olive oil. Always have home roasted pine nuts in a jar so throw some of those or sunflower seeds on top after mixing it.

[@stephaniefunrun]

Hi Sarah! I am a Marathonee and planning my first ultra. Clicked on the video to get some take away and was “open” to how you eat. My jaw dropped and was so happy to see we eat Soooo incredibly Similarly. Found veganism a few years and I swear it has hugely supported my running. Loving your videos.

[@laurencharltonn]

malt loaf is amazing! you need to try it with butter or peanut butter on it!

[@harrietr6712]

so glad ive just found your channel!

[@henrygodwin4826]

Loving the videos! Can’t wait for all the other content! Lovely to meet you at Goodwood well done on smashing your PB!

[@SarahPlace]

thanks hen you too!!

[@ugzruns]

Sarah, you're making me want to eat everything that you have had for the whole day in one evening! 😅 I'll do a tempo run to burn it off tomorrow anyway, so all good 👌🏽

[@mojojojoe100]

i wish my runs would burn off over 2000 calories lol..

[@ugzruns]

@@mojojojoe100 just got to hope my watch reads a wrong HR so meaning I lose more calories 😅

[@Coops1805]

Malt loaf and peanut butter is my go to after run snack ! Every one goes Urrr but it’s lush!

[@wonderwoman5528]

I throughly enjoyed watching this video. It was a real and honest depiction of what you eat in a day and I like to see your routine. You’ve made me want to get a bike

[@miimki2711]

best and honest youtuber till date, love all your vlogs..... keep it up..... kudos

[@passer-by8732]

Love from Fiji 🇫🇯. Very genuine video. Loved it

[@AugherAndy]

Absolutely love this more for the more vloggy style content!

[@e3Scott]

Another great video Sarah! The New Year has started off well for me with my running, managing to get back into a well established routine and having more fun on my runs! Cheers from Canada, Scott!

[@CraigCharity]

I know this comment should be about food but I am inspired by your dedication to run in super cold weather. Being from Durban South Africa I would totally grab a beer and stay home. Well done.

[@FitgirlDancer]

"please be kind".... I LOVE your videos and how gently and non "soap box-ey" you communicate!

[@Advent0re]

Yay, just found your channel 😊 subscribed!

[@TarasSkyJourney]

I had to go find those dark chocolate rice cakes on Amazon. xD. Thank you so much for sharing this Sarah. I love that it really was typical, and not far from what I end up with many days. The only thing I could really add to my diet is more salad. Other than that, very similar (and I run far fewer miles than you do). Thanks again! BTW, I came here from your London Tour run, and that was an amazing video, both for the views of London and for the info given. Thanks again. :)

[@VT___]

The pile of the potatoes with nutritional yeast and the other stuff on top looks great.

[@Gifdr]

Bought the new balances last year in prep for my marathon inevitability cancelled... barely worn them since!

[@user-zt2sg7ou3h]

As others have said, such a positive video in respect of food intake, as Joe S comments below once you start counting calories you can be cursed, it's very hard to stop counting! I should think I am one of your older viewers and have pretty much dieted off and on all my life so it's great to see this healthy, positive approach.

[@stephennaylor6662]

Great video, im having jackets and beans tomorrow, im going to try the Branson pickle on it 😋 looked lovely👍

[@SarahPlace]

it's so good, you won't be disappointed!!

[@Micky1884]

Great video Sarah. Some nice food choices. Looks pretty healthy to me. Gonna have to try the pickle on the beans 😁. Thanks for sharing.

[@SarahPlace]

thx michael! the pickle and beans combo is 👌!!!

[@sandraodell2649]

Whenever you and Ben do a foodie video, I’m eating that for a week or more! Keep it up!!! 👍👍👍

[@sharnghatora9624]

Love this video it’s so realistic 😍

[@SarahPlace]

ahh thx sharn!!xx

[@ashleighbolt1051]

Finally, a realistic what I eat! So good Sarah. Also, why do you run in the evenings? Do you go alone?

[@jonh1958]

Sarah, I can heartily recommend Magpye vegan pies. I've had them a few times and also sent some to my sister in Brighton who is vegan (they got a chef's kiss of approval)

[@SarahPlace]

ooh will have to look into those! never heard of them!

[@sarahgerk]

Branston Pickle and beans on a jacket potato is the single most British lunch you could have had. Thanks for doing a real what I eat in a day video. It's really important to be honest about your food.

[@MrsHammy]

Great vid Sarah! No fuss, no BS. 🙌💯

[@mrhyperbolic7455]

It just goes to show how different people can thrive on different diets. For me I would require 3X the amount of protein and fat to just survive, cutting back to about half those carbs. I have been vegetarian for 40 years and that is just me. A friend of mine eats like you and does great. Thanks for the vid...

[@SarahPlace]

yeah exactly everyone is so different!

[@jessicacastillo6778]

You are so rad! Thank you for making this video and showing that pursuing long distance running can be accessible.

[@SarahPlace]

you're so welcome!

[@paullee8875]

A very realistic and worthwhile vlog. Must try the Oatmilk next week.

[@SarahPlace]

it's so good - i'd recommend the oatly ones that are refrigerated (they do an equivalent of whole, semi-skimmed and skimmed), it's so much nicer than the ones in the uht section!

[@davecowdry6274]

Great video again Sarah, I'll have to give the malt loaf a try, isn't it a bit dry without any spread? Also, can you consider doing another strength and conditioning video maybe at intermediate level for moving onto after doing your first core workout?

[@SarahPlace]

thanks dave! the malt loaf is so moist and squidgy so not dry at all! but of course nice with some butter on too! and yes i will do another strength video eventually!

[@KatieM786]

If malt loaf is dry you got a bad one!

[@simonhodgson4941]

I don't think anyone can wait for there dinner and start searching while cooking!! 😂😂 I will be very interested about your take on the new balance on the next video as I'm going to get some when pay day finally comes! I did watch Ben's review and he defiantly gave then a glowing report.👍

[@paulburns7819]

Sarah, just watched this video and I loved how honest it was, with all your habits (snacking while cooking, definitely me too by the way!). What is nutritional yeast? I’ve not heard of that before. Is it for general health, or specific for running? Thanks for all the content you guys produce, especially the reviews, they’re a real inspiration

[@TarasSkyJourney]

Nobody's answered this, so I will (or else google it). It has a lot of uses in cooking, not just for running nutrition. I first used it in making vegan cheese sauces, but have also used it as part of bread crumbs, or as salad topping. Can also put it in smoothies. Nutritional yeast: This yeast is grown specifically to be used as a food product. The yeast cells are killed during manufacturing and not alive in the final product. It is used in cooking and has a cheesy, nutty or savory flavor

[@mitchellatkins9701]

No bagels in our country. Looks so yum!

[@mirandachitty3790]

Lovely, thank you Sarah. Great to see some normality 😊

[@jamesmarsden1505]

Great vid Sarah always enjoy the positivity on your channel, how much water would you say you drink on average per day? I need to up mine for sure

[@SarahPlace]

ah i don't really know..! erm probably around 2L of actual water on its own and then a cup of coffee in the morning plus sometimes a tea or a shake in the afternoon?

[@avinashbhogun]

Sarah. I found your channel via the mysterious KZbin algorithms. I think we have some mutual friends! Very insight video and keep up the great content, Stay safe! Avi

[@SarahPlace]

thx avi!!

[@gillianlr9303]

Just discovered your channel! Any tips on veggie meals as a runner? I end up eating a lot of lentils to try and get protein which isn’t always the best idea on a long run...

[@simonlaw8774]

What are your thoughts on low carb diets? I’m trying the MAF training at the mo. Welcome views. Love the channel. 👍👍

[@emmabhatti2483]

What head torch do you use!? It looks great

[@TheHammers527]

What are you guys recommending for a long run recovery drink? Any shakes that are your go-to? What protein etc?

[@AMostlyFunctionalJess]

weird food combos are where it's at, we've all got them!

[@nicksmith9239]

Hey Sarah, interesting video, thanks for that - I'm interested in what you had planned for race nutrition for the Arc - Sadly I'm in the same boat as you now that's it's been cancelled but hopefully there will be no stopping us next year!

[@SarahPlace]

hey nick, yeah such a shame but 2022 will be even more epic! didn't really have much of a plan, was just going to fill the car with loads of food and then just see what i fancied when i met my crew..!

[@misspoppyplanet]

Have you tried the oatly barista? Much creamier for coffee :)

[@SomethingNick]

Way healthier than me I get a doughnut and coffee after my run 😅 pro tip you should run your vita-mix at full power rather than low since it kicks on the fan and makes them last longer

[@SarahPlace]

haha sounds delish though! and thx for the vitamix tip!

[@garethsimmonds4786]

[@dazdarren9926]

Have your eating habits changed during the pandemic? I find that I dont run out to the grocery store to pickup one or two items anymore so meal planning takes more thought and deliberate planning

[@SarahPlace]

yes definitely. we always used to go to the shop every day pretty much without fail since we live right on top of one but that has definitely reduced recently and instead we just do a big shop every couple of weeks, fill the freezer and then just top up when we need to!

[@ThatRunningGuy]

I’ve just had my dinner, so you’re not making me hungry Sarah. Thanks for sharing. I’m a pescatarian but probably have one of the worst runners diet...it’s all about getting the calories in...chocolate, ice cream😋 50 mile weeks need fuelling

[@velogoo]

Hi Sarah, slightly random question but what milk frother & coffee machine do you use? I love a good latte or cappuccino and it would be great to be able to make a good quality one at home (I tend to use the sachet ones at the moment). Also have you tried different oat/nut milks do some froth up better than others? cheers! :-)

[@SarahPlace]

hey! the milk frother is called lavazzo modo mio and the coffee machine is just the basic nespresso one. and yes some non dairy milks don't froth at all! most of the refrigerated ones are good though, the non sweetened alpro ones work well but my fave is the oatly refrigerated semi or whole! so nice!!

[@velogoo]

@@SarahPlace thanks I'll check those out!

[@ivanajuraga6746]

@@SarahPlace I am so irrationally pleased with myself for having the same milk frother as you :D I got it a few months ago as a birthday gift, having been unsure about the necessity of such a single-use gadget, but I absolutely love it. Good to have the info about "frothable" non-dairy milks, I've been thinking about making the switch... Thank you for a great video!

Sarah when you or Ben run what’s the minimal distance you will go without a bag to carry water or snack?
