s5/e23 Running Nutrition 101 (The Redux) with Cortney Berling, RD

We’re going back to basics—because let’s be honest, most runners are still underfueling! In this special anniversary episode, I’m bringing back the very first guest I ever had on the show: Registered Dietitian and running coach Cortney Berling to talk (again) about RUNNING NUTRITION 101! If you’ve ever wondered… Should I eat before my run? Why? When? What?? How much fuel do I ACTUALLY need during long runs? Why is post-run fueling so dang hard? And wait... am I underfueling even if I’m not losing weight? This one’s for you. We cover: 🥯 Pre-run fueling (yes, even early morning runs!) 🔋 In-run fueling strategies & how to train your gut 🍳 What post-run nutrition should look like (even when you're not hungry) ⚡ Fueling myths that won’t die 🧠 Why underfueling might be the real reason you feel overtrained or stuck Whether you’re training for your first 5K or your 100th marathon, this is a conversation every runner should hear.
