Fuel Smarter, Run Faster - Marathon Edition #212

Both hosts are feeling a bit bruised this week. Gary’s wrestling with the mental load & that feeling when training somehow leaks into every corner of your life, and Eddie’s running on fumes, her usually eternal mojo having wandered off for a little holiday. Thankfully, you lot are bringing the inspiration with some absolutely mind‑blowing Strava updates.

Fueling for a road marathon has been a hot topic lately, so we’re diving in with some tips and the strategies that have actually worked for us over the years.

And in this week’s Tales from the Trails, things get emotional. Listener Colin Young shares a beautiful, heavy flex tribute to David Parish, who sadly passed away recently. It’s heartfelt, powerful, and a reminder of the incredible community we’re lucky to be part of.

And good news, our friends at Protein Rebel are supplying the prize for April’s competition. Tune in for all the details.

And as always, you lot have been busy. Our STRAVA club continues to be the daily dose of inspiration we all need.
