What do you guys think is the best food to eat before a mx race? What gives you the most energy? Night before and day of?

I can't remember where i was reading it , ( it was on some site) but they were talking to Johnny G , Traci Cecco (/) and some other XC racer about their workout routine and diets . Anyways ... Johnny G eats like 4 - 6 scrambled eggs each morning , fruit or soemthing like that for lunch and a bowl of cereal at dinner time . I started thinking about it , and 4 - 6 eggs a day HAS to give you some major cholesterol no matter how much excercise and ridding that you do . Sorry this is a little off topic .... but maybe try eating what these guys do :huh
