Yeah I saw a special a long time ago about a man powered flight project that was using long distance bicycle racers for the pilots/engines. It spent a moment on the food these athletes ate every day when they where training and burning ~10,000 kilocalories a day. The food filled an eight foot long banquet table. The show did say that they tried to match the general guidelines of 50% carbohydrates, mostly complex, 30% lipids and 20% protein.
