There was a neat sports nutrition study that looked at 86 women runners' diet and incidence of injury over a one year period (not sure why men weren't included). All ran at least 20 miles per week. It found that non-injured runners had almost 25% greater fat intake. Both injured and non-injured runners were deficient in Vitamin K, but injured runners took in 25% less of the nutrient. So, have some spinach and peanuts, or a vegetable stew of sauteed greens like the Kenyans, or raw dinosaur kale salad like Scott Jurek.
