Joining Emma and Will this week is Jenny Graham, the Scottish endurance cyclist who cycled around the world unsupported in 2018, finishing in 124 days and 11 hours, a record that still stands. With her book 'Coffee First, Then The World — One Woman’s Record-Breaking Pedal Around the Planet' out now, she chats about the challenges of writing it and some of her favourite stories from her circumnavigation. Graham also talks frankly about learning to believe in yourself, not diminishing your own challenges, and the importance of structure post-adventure.

Interview begins at 3m 02s.

We hear a lot about ketones in the pro peloton, but what are they?

According to the experts H.V.M.N, ketones are a natural source of fuel for your body. When stored carbs are depleted, your body starts to convert fat into ketones. Studies show that ketones are 28% more efficient than glucose, making them a super-efficient fuel source for the brain and the body.

These benefits led H.V.M.N to create Ketone-IQ: a drinkable ketone designed to support energy, focus and endurance.

Developed alongside the U.S. military, Ketone-IQ is one of the most powerful ketone supplements on the market. It’s designed to elevate your ketone levels for up to 4 hours – much longer than other products. Plus, it’s vegan, caffeine free, and compliant with the World Anti-Doping Agency’s guidelines. That’s a major win for athletes.

Ketone-IQ Shots are the best way to get your ketones on the go. They’re portable, convenient, and fit perfectly in your pocket during a ride or a race.
