Listen Later

In Episode 98 of Trail Society, Corrine, Keely, and Hillary recap a big weekend at the Gorge Waterfalls races, touching on standout performances, course records, and the ongoing shift toward spring in the Pacific Northwest. Hillary shares a candid update about choosing to skip a race for safety reasons, tying back to last week's episode on trail harassment. The team also celebrates Abby Hall's last-minute golden ticket to Western States, and they highlight key results from Desert Rats, Mad City, and Lake Sonoma.

The main interview features Sports Dietitian Claire Shorenstein, who breaks down essential nutrition topics for endurance athletes. She covers the basics on supplements, protein needs, creatine use (especially for women), and how to approach high-carb fueling in a realistic, sustainable way. Claire shares what she sees most often in her practice and offers actionable advice for staying consistent, eating enough, and letting go of perfection. It's a practical, no-nonsense conversation for anyone looking to better fuel their training and everyday life.
