In today’s episode, I dive deep into the essentials of carb loading before a marathon or ultramarathon. If you’ve got a big race coming up and want to maximise your energy on the start line, this one’s for you. I break down exactly how to calculate your carbohydrate needs, offer practical tips for getting those carbs in without feeling bloated, and share my own daily approach—including what foods and snacks actually work for me. Plus, I touch on how to fine-tune your plan to avoid digestive issues on race day. Join me on my mission to save children’s lives through running while I tackle the realities—and myths—of carb loading!
