We’re going back to basics—because let’s be honest, most runners are still underfueling!
In this special anniversary episode, I’m bringing back the very first guest I ever had on the show: Registered Dietitian and running coach Cortney Berling to talk (again) about RUNNING NUTRITION 101!
If you’ve ever wondered…
This one’s for you.
We cover:
🥯 Pre-run fueling (yes, even early morning runs!)
🔋 In-run fueling strategies & how to train your gut
🍳 What post-run nutrition should look like (even when you're not hungry)
⚡ Fueling myths that won’t die
🧠 Why underfueling might be the real reason you feel overtrained or stuck
Whether you’re training for your first 5K or your 100th marathon, this is a conversation every runner should hear.
