Protein Bar for 5K suggestion needed

I am new to this forum, so please excuse me if this question has been asked 10,000 times.

 

On Thanksgiving morning I will be running a 5K. I am looking for a possible Protein bar to have before the race.

 

Yes, I know I should have a protein shake - and probably will - but in case I need an "extra" boost - can you recommend any?

I know it should be: no more than 30 grams of protein (20 to 25 ideal); no more than 10 grams of carbs (5 grams ideal) and no more than 250 calories (less than 200 ideal).

 

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!!

I am sure that someone will have a real answer for you but for a 5K I don't do anything. Just not out there long enough to need any extra nutrition. As a matter of fact, I don't eat anything before I run and only supplement if I am going out for more than 8-9 miles.

I am with Scott. Just steer clear of the Fiber the day before, a light breakfast, and perhaps the protein bar should be saved for AFTER the race to help with recovery... A solid breakfast might be a banana with some peanut butter on it...

For a 5k you shouldn't need much if anything.  Make sure your hydrated, may want to carry water with you.  After you finish, having a Luna Protein bar or something similar is an option.  Have fun and enjoy.
