I frequent NoMeatAthlete.com the most probably. Matt has great running tips, recipes, etc. This simple recipe makes almonds x1000 times better. I tend to get tired of things pretty quickly too though, so I change up snacks often. And lazily, I also stack up on Clif bars whenever they go on sale and always have one in a desk drawer, glove box, back pocket.
I suck at cooking, so another favorite site is The Vegan Stoner. I'm not a stoner myself, but these recipes are generally very easy, although not always the healthiest. I have their cookbook and it is awesome.
And because I now feel a little guilty about suggesting couch food, two of the best resources that really inspired me were Rich Roll's podcast and book, and Brendan Brazier's Thrive Forward video series. The book really kickstarted everything for me, the podcast kept me interested, and the video series kept me informed while I trained. My only suggestion if you've never listened to Rich's podcast before is to check the show notes and check out episodes that you'll find interesting. As of late he's also gotten into a lot of spiritual and entrepreneurial guests, and those don't keep my interest as much as the veg athletes and physicians.
Best of luck! I went from couch slob to my April marathon in 10 months and am about to start training for a 50mi trail race. It's crazy what we're capable of with plants!
I quite liked finding ultra ( http://www.amazon.co.uk/Finding-Ultra-Rejecting-Becoming-Discovering/dp/0307952207), it ends up being a bit preachy with the vegan diet but that is easy to ignore if you just concentrate on the running
+1 for Rich Roll!!! Currently reading his book now as well, Finding Ultra.
I just ordered the dudes book. Check it: https://www.amazon.com/Finding-Ultra-Revised-Updated-Discovering/product-reviews/0307952207/ref=cm_cr_getr_d_paging_btm_next_3
