Just to maintain the weight ill be at, for the best recovery and performance possible.

You will need alot of carbs to maintain if you are endurance running, it's hard to say what you would need really without knowing details. A good idea would be to buy a Hart rate monitor to track how many calories you are burning, if you are just concerned with maintaining I would make most of the calories up with carbs = energy. Lots of glucose around your endurance running.

Ive been looking on the net and most of what i have found state 60/25/15 carb/pro/fat...........my thinking is, keep protein at 1gram per lb lbm, have fats at 40 gram and the rest of my cals in carbs.....using maint cals ( when i work them out,closer to the time)

I dont know the exact details of my training plan yet but itl be for 10-12 weeks ending September for the run.........ill be training 2x per day 4-5 days each week, running,mma/muay thai,weights.......i have a heart rate monitor and will be using that all the time.
