Making A Runner

S2|E3 - Running Nutrition 101 with dietician & professional triathlete, Mariella Sawyer.


Listen Later

Runners are notoriously poor when it comes to adopting nutrition strategies during training and races with most of us

leaving these decisions to last minute chance.

As we move into a space where professional advice is no longer reserved for elite athletes, every day runners are benefiting from adopting nutrition strategies for their running goals - this is no easy task though.

That’s why we sat down with dietician and pro triathlete Mariella Sawyer to give you a 101 crash course on running nutrition.

In this episode we cover:

  • eating vs. fuelling.
  •  nutrition for female runners.
  •  nutrition & hydration pre, during & post run.
  • fuelling your body even when you are running to lose weight.
  • the value of refined carbohydrates in a holistic nutrition approach.

As you’ll hear there is no one size fits all approach but we hope that by listening to this episode you’ll be spared some horror stories, although we all have to learn from trial and error.
