Is it ok to eat a big bowl of pasta straight after the run you asked. Hmmmmmmm not straight away i said. May be after an hour or so, eat as much as you like. During the run pretty much all parts of the body is working tirelessly and if you are on a faster run it is in double action. All parts of the body is doing whistles and noises to get the attention of oxygen rich energy cells. So heart is pumping blood 200 miles per hour. So yes by the time you finish the run pretty much run down, hungry and thirsty. So best is to get the thirst out of the way. Water is the best friend. You may say; why not energy drinks. Sure why not. Go a head. They are full of sugar and electrolysis. They would replenish some of the electrolysis lost during the run than the big bowl of pasta. As they say, every thing in moderation. Too much water is bad too.
Another reason not to eat straight away is, you would not get a chance to eat a bowl of pasta during a marathon. So every training session you could use as a race simulation. So as every training session not being a marathon session, it takes a lesser time. So the body would expect some food after 1 hour or so after you start running. When you don't take food, then the fat burning cycle kicks in, then hit the wall.
So after a run best is to do the warm down, stretch, then clean yourself with clean o pine:-0. So after about 45 minutes from your run go for the big meal.
