You crossed the finish line – congratulations! But your race isn't quite over. What you eat in those crucial post-race hours plays a HUGE role in your recovery, muscle repair, and how you feel for your next run. Join us this week as we dive into the essential nutrients and strategies to effectively refuel and rebuild after a race with Registered Dietitian, Alex Larson.


Learn what to prioritize on your plate to bounce back faster and get ready for your next challenge! 


Alex Larson is a Minnesota-based registered dietitian (RD, LD) who felt her calling the moment she crossed the finish line of Ironman Wisconsin and has leaned into this mission of serving endurance-based athletes. She works with endurance athletes on fueling for improved performance and body composition through a flexible eating style. She has worked with athletes from all over the U.S. and in over 15 different countries, and she has completed 20+ triathlons, including Ironmans and multiple 10K and half marathons.
