With that in mind I would like to mention a few things I would avoid and a few things worth trying before a big workout or race.
First I would not go out to eat with my boyfriend before the race or workout. I did that once and it was one of my worst workouts.
Second don't eat pizza. In college we had this race called the root beer mile. Root beer and pizza don't combine well while you are racing.
Third no sour gummys.
As for things that have worked well for me I'd say
First bananas, when I had practice at 6 in the morning this one seemed to give me just what I needed to get started.
Second dried fruit trail mix when I was running in high school I discovered that this seemed to give me just what I needed right before an 800, or a 400. I didn't really like the taste, but I couldn't argue with those results.
Third a sub sandwich. As long as I only ate a small amount before the race or workout this one would provide energy without being too much.

What foods would you avoid? Which ones would you recommend?
I don't recommend oranges before a run, and if your going to eat eggs give it enough time to go through you before you run.
