On Episode 20, Alex Hutchinson makes his second appearance on the podcast, to discuss some of his Sweat Science articles published on ⁠⁠outsideonline.com⁠⁠

“There are many things Garmin cannot tell you. And luckily, for many things, we have Alex Hutchinson” - Malcolm Gladwell

Alex explains the science behind some really interesting topics:

• ​⁠⁠Yes, You, Were Born to Run - the latest research⁠⁠
• ​⁠⁠Can Beet Juice Help you Beet the Competition?⁠⁠
• ​⁠⁠Baking Soda - Boost Your Performance⁠⁠
• ​⁠⁠More Carbohydrates per hour to Fuel Endurance⁠⁠
• ​⁠⁠Strengthen Your Foot Core - Foot Doming⁠⁠
• ​⁠⁠The New Woman's Marathon World⁠⁠

Alex is a New York Times Best-selling author. His first book ⁠⁠"Endure - Mind, Body and Curiously Elastic Limits of Human Performance"⁠⁠ is a must read for anyone looking to gain insight into the minds of great athletes and how to push the limits of human performance and endurance - in sport, business or every day life.

And Alex shared his second book is coming out on March 25, 2025 - "The Explorer's Gene - Why We Seek Big Challenges, New Flavors and the Blank Spots on the Map"
