Quick: Name a few foods high in vitamin D. Stumped?

The view looked amazing, as did his life for that past decade—dressed in a tuxedo and white gloves while working on a six-star cruise ship in Antarctica; suntanned and smiling after a day of…
If you, like many runners, have ever slogged through what you thought would be an easy jog, or completely bonked during a marathon for which you had trained properly, then you have probably asked yourself, “what went wrong?” Often, the problem isn’t in your miles, but your fueling, which is one of the key aspects of any runner’s workout and racing plan.

Fast-food chains aren’t necessarily a destination for the most elegant or highest-quality food, but they still manage to bring in customers with the simple proposition of getting a quick, filling meal at a lower price than higher-end brands.
