Sainsbury's cherry bakewells. Water. That is all.

You might as well just drink sugary milk.

Bompa recommends some dairy like yoghurt during training sessions for much the same reasons; good mix of carbs and proteins, and easily tolerated after exercise.

The cost is similar to Decathlon's recovery drink which I also use.
grated carrot mixed with penut butter and strawbwerry jam in between nice bread used to be my guilty pleasure - must start again.
You guys obviously are not getting enough caffeine. You should drink strong black coffee until your heartbeat fills your ears and you are having palpitations, then head out to the crag. I havent eaten solid food since 1986.
(or at the least share them)!
dried apricots are ace but its a fine line to tread before you find yourself shitting through the eye of a needle.
I went for malt loaf whilst in Pembroke. Good, but i reckon i could easily eat two of them in a day.
