Why refuel with chocolate milk?“Runners who drink lowfat chocolate milk within three hours of a workout show increased repair and better glycogen stored in muscles,” registered dietitian Althea Zanecosky of Mid-Atlantic Dairy Association. Zanecosky, who has taught sports nutrition at Drexel and is a distance runner having completed the Boston Marathon, was available to speak with race participants about Lehigh’s chocolate milk benefits as a recovery beverage.Lehigh Valley Dairy was happy to have supported this event as a resource to runners and walkers and in supporting increased awareness in our community of the importance of cancer screenings.”
