In our continuing series on the FUNdaMENTALS of the sport of running, we wrestle with one of the bears every marathoner is required to attempt to tame. While food, nutrition & fueling will alway be loaded topics, we try to dig deeper: Is there a standard protocol? Or is it simply trial & error? There are those who run nutrition free & others who engineer a very specific & well-oiled plan of attack for maximizing the benefits of in-race nutrition. In this episode we unpack the challenges & landmines associated with fueling in race &, in the end, tend to agree that while fueling is important, it really is idiosyncratic. 
We remind you that this podcast is a conversation & not a primer or final statement on the subject of fueling in a race. We aren't nutritionists, doctors or authorities. We simply have lots of experience & these experiences have informed our ideas around the topic. 
We bring you the episode we call To Fuel or Not To Fuel? Is That Really A Question?!?!? 
Godspeed, my friends, godspeed.
