Something with carbs and protein is good. If you're doing mostly cardio, carbs would boost your chances of enduring the grueling workouts. If you're worried that you'll only be burning carbs when working out, let me assure you that initially it's true. Your body will always use carbs as fuel first. But cardio ensures that if you reach your fat burning zone ( depending on your heart rate) your body will switch to burning fat. Whatever glycogen you have left in your system will be burned off from recuperating or from strength/ weight training.
