I tried running in 2004, really liked it, and injured my knee after a few weeks. After years of on/off PT, I can now run again! Which is awesome

.
We have a lake near our apartment with a 5K loop around it, so I've done that a few times already (and managed to do it without stopping last time, so that's good).

However, at times I felt quite tired from such a 30-min run, so I'm wondering what's the best thing to do in this case. The_Jazz (or should I say, Abou Crompsin), any suggestions? What would be good to eat before/after the run to have some energy? And how long before running should I refrain from eating something?

Thanks!
