Training foods

I am an avid runner (currently running 35-40 miles per week) and training for a marathon. I also love to cycle.

It seems that the fitness world is full of supplements: Gu, Shot Bloks, etc.

Are there more natural, easy to eat things I can eat while exercising.

I try to drink only coconut water and plain water, but sometimes I end up eating a Gu or some Sports Beans.

Any suggestions?

I'm not an expert , but there are some very nice and knowledgeable folks in our Runners Corner in the Sunny Gym section. I'm sure someone will be able to answer your questions.
