This is what works well for me.
I eat some high quality carbs before I go to bed (wholemeal bread or cereal with milk)
In the morning I have a low-fat yogurt (which is easy to digest and provides a reasonable energy source) as well as a banana. Then after the run I have my main breakfast which is usually a protein shake with some toast.
Hope this works for you.

One egg, scrambled and some sautee or steamed veggies – I carry a small bit of chocolate on my long runs incase i get dizzy. I dont do juice, becuase it has too much acid and causes heart burn. Runniing with heart burn is painful!

Okay just eat one boiled egg, it will store protein in your body, aslo eat a bannana they help to relieve cramps and have potassium, you could also have a bannana breakfast bar, or just some strawberrys, and fruit!

Yeah, I agree with Santosh, eat a breakfast bar. It's small and quick.
