Ready to fuel your runs like a pro? Discover the essentials of nutrition for runners and how to optimize your caloric intake for peak performance. We break down everything from the science of calories to the importance of macronutrients and carbohydrates. Learn the differences between quick and slow-release carbs, the role of fiber in a healthy diet, and how to tweak your intake to meet your goals. Plus, we've got plenty of insightful resources to support your journey to better nutrition.

Inspired by stories of fictitious endurance athletes over 40 like John, Mike, Lars, Tom and Jack we explore how they've adjusted their nutrient intake to elevate their performance. From incorporating lean meats and protein-rich snacks to balancing macro-nutrient intake and focusing on essential vitamins and minerals, these athletes have made strategic changes to their diets. Join us as we discuss how ultramarathoner Jack relies on the My Fitness Pal app to monitor and adjust his diet for optimal results. Don't miss this opportunity to learn from their experiences and level up your nutrition game!
