Marathon menus please.

What should I be eating a week out from my first marathon? Anything special I should exclude from my diet or add? Any tips greatfully received.

Re: Marathon menus please.
I'm just bumping up this message. I am running the Detroit Marathon this Sunday and I have the same question. How do you carbo load and what other kind of food should one eat the week leading up to a marathon?

Eat what you normally eat.
