This episode is a Q&A where I answer questions submitted to me beforehand by listeners. Today's questions include:
- I'm a busy college runner who relies heavily on pre-packaged foods and bars, often grabbing them for snacks or before or after runs. Do you have any recommendations for conveniences foods that won't hurt my stomach?
- Should I consume 60g of carbs per hour on all long runs, even the "shorter" long runs that are 10-15 miles?
- What is a good strategy for taking in fluids during the marathon? Should I use on course options or carry my own?
- My cholesterol recently came back as borderline high but I'm super active and don't have a family history. Should I be concerned, and are there dietary changes I should be making?
