In this episode, Kristin Fant, MCN, RDN, LD, joins me to talk about performance nutrition for runners and triathletes. We discuss her "All Foods Fit" perspective when it comes to coaching nutrition, the biggest dietary issues endurance athletes face, the idea that being lighter will make you faster, and strategies to maximize fueling during training and competition.
