Whether you’ve been a runner for decades, just a few years or just picked it up recently I’m sure you’ve come across one or more of these nutrition myths that I am discussing on the podcast today.

In this episode, I am debunking the 5 most common nutrition myths that impact runners. You’ll hear why the myth isn’t rooted in truth and science plus tips on how you can improve your nutrition to boost performance in ways that refuel your body and allow for safe post-run recovery.

What’s in this episode:

  • The 5 nutrition myths that are rampant in the running community
  • Why you might want a pre run snack sometimes but not always
  • What I encourage to pair with protein and how it helps with recovery
  • How one sole macronutrient isn’t the cause of weight gain
  • Why you shouldn’t strive for perfectionism
  • How there are no hard and fast rules about refueling
