• This Is the Fascinating Science Powering Your Runs

  Fueling your body properly for running is a fairly complex process, but it can be best summed up in one phrase called glycogen metabolism. Understanding the basics of glycogen metabolism is essential to creating a fueling plan that will enable you to train and race your best. And the science is actually quite fascinating. You’ll learn: how your body creates and uses fuel for any kind of run how you can enhance this process, and how you can improve your glycogen storage to have a greater stash of energy for performance This topic could easily fall deep in the rabbit hole of physiology, biochemistry, and anatomy, but I'm going to hopefully make it easier to understand the process in just a few minutes.

It was one of the first podcasts I found when I started running and was looking for advice and it’s still my favorite one. Claire gives concise, helpful advice for all levels of running and also great nutrition tips. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐So positive and helpful! 😍 Love this podcast and all the topics! Been listening for probably 2 years now and Claire is an amazing host. I appreciate how she keeps episodes concise with the occasional longer episode with a guest. As a vegan, I totally dig the plant-based info, but that is not the basis of most episodes–running is.  All the episodes I’ve listened to are encouraging and so positive. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐A highlight of my week It is a gift to be able to have a space for plant-based runners to learn!  Claire’s advice is always solid and not just limited to the plant-based, but doesn’t include fueling your runs with unhealthy foods, which seems to happen on other podcasts.  Thank you!
