Another Wednesday, another WIAW! I feel like I was just typing up last Wednesday‘s post. Here is what I eat when I have a basketball game! I try not to have any new foods on a game day – don’t want to upset the stomach!
Breakfast
Lately my thing has been to take my overnight oats to school. It saves about 15 minutes in the morning, and we all know that every second in bed counts! My go-to recipe is 1/2 cup oats, 1/2 banana, 1/4 cup greek yogurt, a sprinkle of chia seeds, and almond milk. Topped with bloobs and peanut butter in the morning!
Lunch
The usual sandwich with pesto, mayo, turkey, tomato, and spinach. Yesterday I added some onion leftover from the black bean burgers – I’m never going back! Onions forever! Plus an apple while doing le calculus…
Pre Game
I had some toast when I got home from school before the hour long bus ride.
Post Game
JIMMY JOHNS! Numba 12 – turkey, provolone, lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, and avocado spread. Anytime I’m within a 10 mile radius of a Jimmy John’s I have to go. I saved half for lunch today…11:13 you can’t come fast enough! And a cookie… gotta end my day on a sweet note!
So those are my tried and true game day eats! They must work because we won our game by 20. Happy Hump Day!
What are your go-to race day eats?
Favorite sub/sandwich place?
Overnight oats are the best. I’d be eating some right now if I had remembered them last night! Duh…Have a great day, Leigha!

Lol! I always make a few batches so I don’t have to do it every night π Have a lovely day also!
That looks like what a typical day was for me in college! All tasty – minus the mayo but I’m one of those weirdos who hates it! For me on a day where I know I’ll be running a lot or active I usually have a banana with a toasted english muffin and some peanut butter that I melt down in the microwave with a few chocolate chips to swirl in! I’ts perfect!

Oh for sure! π
Mmm overnight oats are the best! And their convenience just makes them even better. π
I don’t think I have a favorite sub place, but I do love a good sub sandwich when I can find one! Yours looks delicious!

Overnight oats are perfect because they require no effort – and I do not want to have to be worrying about making breakfast that early in the morning!
I’m seriously considering getting Jimmy Johns delivered for lunch now π

Same! It always turns the oatmeal blue/purple π
I love Jimmy Johns! Their un-wiches are the best!

I haven’t tried an un-wich yet – I love the wheat bread too much! They sound really yummy though!!
We have a billion Jimmy John’s on my campus because Jimmy John lives in Champaign (where I go to school). Like, literally there are about 13 of them in a 10 minute radius of my apartment!
