Our listener question follows up on the listener question from episode 72 - how do you take objective vs subject approaches to determine your best race distance? Then, we dive into an important topic: pre- and post-run nutrition, and why they matter so much. We dive into the science and provide practical tips that you can implement in your own training.

Discussion points include:

The definition of LEA and REDs
Unintentional vs intentional LEA
Symptoms and impacts of LEA
How much and what should you eat before runs
How soon should you eat after a run?
What to eat after a run
