Welcome to Episode 24 of the Trail Running Ireland Podcast. The show is hosted by Eoin Flynn, UTMB Finish Line Race Announcer and 10 times Irish International Mountain Runner. 

With the end of the first quarter of the year upon us, it´s an ideal time to check in on our nutrition strategy for training with Expert Nutritionist Evan Lynch. Evan works alongside Athletics Ireland and Cycling Ireland and is ideally placed to help us out nutrition wise as we approach the summer months and hopefully a return to racing. On todays listener Q and A session, we cover items such as:

• what indicators are there to look out for when your diet is not quite on point. 
• Gels and Food strategy while training and racing
• Best Daily Snacks
• Best Supplements
• Treats – allowed or not

Evan can be contacted at: www.evanlynchfitnut.com/

Head Coach from Running Coach Ireland René Borg is also with us to discuss how many Heart Rate zones he recommends for training and how to set them up accurately.
