Running is bigger than just the 28 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: act of running a lot of This is an episode 29 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 1: that's been a long time coming because I get so 30 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: many questions about how to fuel. But I am not 31 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: the expert in this arena, which is why I'm so. 32 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 2: Happy to have you here. 33 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 3: But you know what's so interesting, You're definitely the expert 34 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 3: of you, right, and runners, I would say, no, their 35 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 3: bodies really well, and what works for one person is 36 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,119 Speaker 3: not necessarily going to work for another. So even if 37 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 3: I said, Emily, this is exactly how many grams of 38 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 3: carbohydrates you should be having on a long run, and 39 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 3: this is exactly the type of you know, how much 40 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 3: hydration you should be getting, and this is how you 41 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 3: should refuel, it might not work for you, it might 42 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 3: cause you gi distress, and another person it might be perfect. 43 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 3: So it really is one of those things where there 44 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 3: are these yes, ideas and theories and formulas and science 45 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,679 Speaker 3: behind recommendations, of course. I mean I always talk about 46 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 3: the science and the research, right, So there's science and 47 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 3: research behind certain recommendations. But for athletes, it is so 48 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 3: specific to the individual, and what works for one person 49 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,519 Speaker 3: isn't necessarily going to work for another. I mean, I've 50 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 3: had athletes, you know, they love like goo type of 51 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 3: packets for long distance training, and then they're athletes where 52 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 3: that gives them horrible gi distress and they can only 53 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,799 Speaker 3: use like honey sticks, you know, those honey sticks, old 54 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 3: fashioned like honey sticks of them. Right. 55 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 2: So there, so it's real. It really really varies. 56 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 3: And the thing I say to people what's most important 57 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 3: when it comes to figuring out your fueling and hydration 58 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 3: for training, This is the most important thing is you 59 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 3: have to practice it. You can't just think, oh, I've 60 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 3: been training and running and now I've got a long run, 61 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 3: I'm going to start taking you know gooz or I'm 62 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 3: going to start using these bars, or I'm going to 63 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 3: start with this you know sports drink. 64 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 2: You absolutely have to practice. 65 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 3: Multiple times and really figure out how much, what kind 66 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 3: when to use your fuel and hydration and that is 67 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 3: what is most key. 68 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 1: Right, Okay, So the takeaway from this intro is that 69 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: there's no one size fits all solution and practice practice practice, absolutely. 70 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 2: Okay. 71 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: So let's break it down then, first by talking about 72 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: general eating for runners, like not necessarily on race day. 73 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: Just a lot of people say, well, if I'm only 74 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: going out to run three four five miles, obviously that's 75 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: going to be a little bit different than going out 76 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: to Europe for that long run. 77 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 2: I mean, you. 78 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 3: Really don't, unless if you're training for a longer run, 79 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 3: let's say a half marathon or a marathon, you might 80 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 3: want a fuel during your training run, even if you're 81 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 3: running after let's say anywhere from sixty to ninety minutes. 82 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 3: Definitely ninety minutes and on, but sixty to ninety if 83 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 3: you're training for a longer, longer run. But if you're 84 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 3: just the casual athlete who's doing a long weekend run 85 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 3: of even seventy five minutes or a workout like that, 86 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 3: you don't need to be fueling during that. 87 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 2: Sometimes you don't even need to be hydrating. 88 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 3: I mean, I do encourage hydration throughout, and I think 89 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 3: for most people they feel better, they stay more alert. 90 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 3: There Obviously it's important to stay hydrated for many different reasons, 91 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 3: but I think they perform better and just just easier 92 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 3: to rehydrate right when you don't when you don't become dehydrated. 93 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 3: But technically, I mean, they would even be fine. You're 94 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,039 Speaker 3: not necessarily going to dehydrate yourself at that for that 95 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 3: time period. So most people, I mean, I think the 96 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 3: biggest misconception is that these casual athletes, even people that 97 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 3: work out six seven days a week and work out 98 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 3: hard for an hour, they think that they need, you know, 99 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 3: special types of you know fuel during a workout or 100 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 3: after a workout or before a workout. There's no special 101 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 3: fuel there really isn't. It's really eating. And I would 102 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 3: say your pre workout meal and your post workout meal 103 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 3: is really just it depends on when you work out. 104 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 2: So if you. 105 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 3: Work out, let's say after work your post workout meal 106 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 3: where you want to get in a certain amount of 107 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 3: carbohydrates and protein and antioxidants. That might just be your dinner. 108 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 3: It's not like you need this special post workout snack 109 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 3: or something. It's really just your dinner. You just have 110 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 3: to make sure that you're timing your snacks and your 111 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 3: meals around your workout, and that you are getting the 112 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 3: types of nutrients that are best for your body. 113 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 2: Got it? 114 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: Okay, So then let's frame less specific. Then to the 115 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: person that's doing a half marathon or a marathon, it's 116 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: the week of the marathon and a lot of times 117 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 1: people will be like, Okay, I need to carbo load, 118 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,479 Speaker 1: so they go crazy on the carbs for the. 119 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 2: Whole week leading up. 120 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: So what's like the a smart eating strategy for the 121 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 1: week leading up to some sort of endurance race. 122 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 3: Okay, So, first of all, carbo loading can work against 123 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 3: a lot of people. For some people, it makes them 124 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 3: feel sluggish and it doesn't work. So that again is 125 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 3: kind of like something you need to practice. So if 126 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 3: you have not carbo loaded, you definitely shouldn't try it 127 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 3: right before a race. You should try it while you're 128 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 3: you know, practicing, or maybe if it's just a fun 129 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 3: race and you want to try it for that race, 130 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 3: but be aware it might not work for you, it 131 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 3: might make you feel sluggish, does not work for everyone. 132 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 3: The second thing I'll say about that is, again you 133 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 3: just need to be practicing about it, but also you 134 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 3: need what's most important during that week before of course, 135 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 3: you want to eat healthy, and you want to get 136 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 3: rest and you want to stay hydrated, but you actually 137 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 3: need to be eating like you've been training. You don't 138 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 3: really want to change much. What I say is you 139 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 3: just want to make sure you're on your A game. 140 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 3: So that goes for your hydration, because even you know, 141 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 3: when you're training, you might have a day a day 142 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 3: where you're sort of like, you don't get as much 143 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 3: water in, and you might have a day where you're 144 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 3: not eating as well, or you go to a friend's 145 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 3: wedding and you totally go off track and you drink 146 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 3: four nights in a row, you know what I mean. 147 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 3: Even if you're training for half marathon or marathon, you 148 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 3: may fall off a little bit. I would just say 149 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 3: the most important thing the week before is to eat 150 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 3: like you've been eating on your best weeks during training 151 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 3: and just don't you know, don't just make it the 152 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 3: best you know again, be on your A game with 153 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 3: your sleep, with your hydration, with your meals, and so 154 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 3: as far as if you're carb loading, I mean, that's 155 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 3: a whole other topic for the specifics of how to 156 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 3: do it. But if you're doing that, you should have 157 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 3: your game plan of how you've done it, you know 158 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 3: before and exactly what works for you. If you're not 159 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 3: carbo loading, you still obviously need a certain amount of 160 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 3: your calories from carbohydrates. You need a proportion of nutrients carbs, fats, 161 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 3: and protein, and you need to be eating them consistently 162 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 3: throughout the day. And again, depending upon the timing of 163 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 3: your runs, you might have a breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, 164 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 3: dinner snack, or you might be the type of person 165 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 3: that has a later breakfast and then lunch and then 166 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,239 Speaker 3: a snack snack later dinner. I mean it really again, 167 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 3: it depends on what you've been doing, what's been working 168 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 3: for you. But the most important thing to be doing 169 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 3: is getting that balance of carbohydrates, protein and healthy fat. 170 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 3: So maybe let's say you're getting your grilled salmon and 171 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 3: then you have a bowl of farrow or wild rice 172 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 3: or sweet potato, and then you have a big green 173 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 3: salad and roasted vegetables. So you're getting your antioxidants, you're 174 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 3: getting your carbohydrates, you're getting healthy fat. Maybe you've got 175 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 3: the vegetables, got olive oil on the vegetables. Whatever you 176 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 3: want to make sure you're getting in that good balance 177 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 3: and getting enough carbohydrate and not reducing it, but again 178 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 3: not necessarily carbo loading unless. 179 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 2: You've practiced that. 180 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: So I know the question that's going to come next 181 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: from a listener is, Okay, you're saying I need these ratios, 182 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: like what's the ideal ratio? And again we're saying this 183 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: with the caveat that everyone is different. So someone gets 184 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: a piece of advice that says, like, you should everyone 185 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: does the pasta party the night before they run, or 186 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: whatever they do, like if in a great world, this 187 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 1: is like our exemplary human. 188 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 3: I would say for most runners. And I don't always 189 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 3: love giving this proportion because then I feel like people 190 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 3: start to get, you know, worried about counting and measuring 191 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 3: and weighing and blah blah blah. But I'd say thirty 192 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 3: thirty thirty, forty thirty, forty thirty however you want, so 193 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 3: thirty carbs protein, sorry, carbs, forty thirty fat and protein. 194 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 2: Perfect, got it? Okay, So that for. 195 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 3: An average person, By the way, what I usually tell 196 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 3: people to think about is about a third, a third 197 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 3: and a third, because I actually don't mind if people 198 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 3: have a little more fat and a little bit less 199 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 3: carbs and a little bit more protein. Right, I'm saying 200 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 3: for the runner, you might if you think about it 201 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 3: that way, you might go too low carbs for again 202 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 3: for a long distance runner. 203 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 2: So I just say that forty. 204 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 3: But even many runners are still fine with that sort 205 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 3: of a third third third mentality. 206 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 2: Got it okay? 207 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 3: And again that's a third. I'm saying this in quotes, 208 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,359 Speaker 3: and it's not exactly. 209 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: And the thing to keep in mind also is that 210 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: it doesn't need to be like a pasta meal. You 211 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: actually highlighted a really delicious meal with the salmon and 212 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: the vegetables and the farrow or the rice. It's a 213 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 1: non typical thing that you see, you know, like everyone's. 214 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 2: Like got to eat the pasta. But it doesn't have 215 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 2: to be pasta. 216 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 3: So that's exactly exactly why I gave an example like that, 217 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 3: Like that meal, you're getting carbohydrates in the salad, you're 218 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 3: getting carbohydrates in the vegetables, you're getting carbohydrates in that 219 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 3: farrow or sweet potato, right, and then you're getting some 220 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,680 Speaker 3: protein and then from the salmon, and then you're getting 221 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 3: fat in the salmon as well as the olive oil. 222 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 2: So that's just sort of an example of a meal 223 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 2: like that. 224 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 3: Now for some people, again you know what I also 225 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 3: think too, sometimes people like the pasta even like a 226 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,959 Speaker 3: mourning of because it's obviously it's refined its process. It 227 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 3: turns into sugar in your body a lot faster than 228 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 3: something that's digesting slower. So that's why I do think 229 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 3: some people also think about that, you know, the pasta 230 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 3: the night before, but I'm talking like the week leading up. 231 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,719 Speaker 3: You certainly don't need to get your carbs in that 232 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 3: pasta form. 233 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 2: So to touch on two things you mentioned just now. 234 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: One alcohol, A lot of people you'll hear will completely 235 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: swear off alcohol, maybe not the entire training segle, but 236 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: the month before. 237 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,040 Speaker 2: What would an advantage to that be? 238 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 3: So, I mean the biggest advantage to that is again 239 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,959 Speaker 3: it depends on how it affects you. But one thing 240 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 3: I by the way, personally, I've been totally off alcohol 241 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 3: because it gives me migraines lately. So I feel like 242 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 3: I'm an expert in like the benefits of not drinking 243 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 3: at all right now, just from personal experience right now, 244 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 3: because I never even drank that much. But sorry, that 245 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 3: was a little side note, But I think these are 246 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 3: benefits that everybody can read. First of all, absolutely, you 247 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 3: sleep better, and people think, but I pass out from 248 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 3: drinking alcohol. Your sleep is still it's it's not as 249 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,719 Speaker 3: high quality sleep. So you're going to sleep better, which 250 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,439 Speaker 3: obviously is important for your energy and for training. Right, 251 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 3: alcohol can also dehydrate you. Your your liver is working 252 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 3: hard in terms of you know, detoxifying you know when 253 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 3: you when you're drinking the toxic alcohol, right, So alcohol 254 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 3: is a toxin. Your body has to work hard at 255 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 3: processing that. So if your body is working hard doing that, 256 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 3: I mean just it's it's working hard doing that, and 257 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 3: it's and it's not as I guess, this isn't a 258 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 3: this isn't a scientific way of saying this, But your 259 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 3: body is generally one of the reasons your body doesn't 260 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 3: feel great after, right, Your body doesn't always feel great 261 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 3: after That's why you have a hangover, right, And so anyway, 262 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 3: so you're not going to feel as great. You might 263 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 3: that again might cause you might disrupt your your running. 264 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 3: So even on the days that you, let's say, don't 265 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 3: have a hangover, why why is it a good idea 266 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 3: to you know, reduce it? Like I just said, dehydration, 267 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 3: poor sleep, all of those reasons all yeah. And then 268 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 3: also I mean use your energy, use your calories for 269 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 3: better quality nutrients, make your calories nutrient dense. Get eat 270 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 3: foods that are going to provide you with other nutrients 271 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 3: that are going to help it repair your muscles, you know, 272 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:23,199 Speaker 3: as opposed to empty calories from alcohol. Now I'm also 273 00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 3: not anti alcohol, there are you know, there still are 274 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 3: benefits to alcohol in moderation. I hate using that word moderation, 275 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 3: but in moderation, yeah, there are benefits to alcohol. And 276 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 3: also I mean if it helps you relax, you know, 277 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 3: for some people they can really use it in a 278 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 3: really healthy way and have a glass of wine or 279 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 3: one drink with a balanced meal, you know, a few 280 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 3: times a week, and it's a good, it's a good 281 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 3: they have it in their life in a very balanced way. 282 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 3: So not all runners need to give it up completely, 283 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 3: but if you feel like it affects your sleep and 284 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 3: all that, you know, definitely I would consider. 285 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: And then something else you mentioned obviously important hydration. So 286 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: general rule of thumb everyday human how much water? 287 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 2: So I feel like I've said this now one hundred 288 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 2: times here, and I know the excuse this thing. 289 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 3: It's like the excuse answer here, but it's not it 290 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 3: really again depends so I usually tell people eight glasses 291 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 3: of water a day, okay, and eight ounces, so eight 292 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 3: cups of water a day. Now, that is a myth 293 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 3: that that is the exact amount. The reason I always 294 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 3: tell people that is because it still is a good 295 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 3: average goal for many people to go for, right, right, 296 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 3: So because many people don't drink enough. If you're thinking 297 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 3: about eight, maybe you'll get to six or seven and 298 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 3: maybe that's all you even needed. For another person, maybe 299 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 3: eight is you know, a little they need a little more, 300 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 3: and so they go for eight. Maybe they'll leave an 301 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 3: end up going for nine, or maybe they'll at least 302 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 3: almost making it. So again, it depends on your environment. 303 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 3: It depends on your weight, It depends on I mean 304 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 3: many different facts, your exercise, you know, lifestyle, It depends 305 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 3: on so many different things. What how much water you 306 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 3: need to drink? However, like I said, that's just sort 307 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 3: of I use that as a good goal. So there 308 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 3: are like when it comes to sports nutrition though and 309 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 3: hydrating from working out. I mean there's sort of two 310 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 3: different theories, like you having a certain an exact amount 311 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 3: you should have every fifteen to twenty minutes. I'm sure 312 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 3: you probably, I mean, you know this, and I don't 313 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 3: know if you use this method. And then there are 314 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 3: people that sort of drink to thirst right, right, And 315 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 3: there's people that think, like, if you're drinking when you're thirsty, 316 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 3: you're getting you're getting adequate amounts. You know. Other people think, 317 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 3: then you're already past hydrate, You're already too dehydrated, and 318 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 3: it's hard. 319 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 2: To make it up. 320 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 3: I always have recommended, you know, being hydrated again, just 321 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 3: as much as you have to eat properly leading up 322 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 3: to the erase, you have to drink hydrate yourself that week, right. 323 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 3: You can't just think you're going to hydrate that morning. 324 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 3: So hydrate properly that entire week super important. And then 325 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 3: also before a race, you want to be hydrated. You're 326 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 3: the couple hours before having those couple glasses of water, 327 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 3: and then also you go in properly hydrated. And then 328 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 3: I like people to hydrate. If you know you're going 329 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 3: for a run for more than ninety minutes, especially seventy 330 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 3: five minutes to ninety minutes, you're going for a long 331 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 3: you have a longer race, absolutely drinking every fifteen to 332 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 3: twenty minutes. Water is adequate for many cases. However, I 333 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 3: do there are definitely times and places for sports drinks 334 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 3: for the electrolytes. And you know we were talking about 335 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 3: before we started about Halo. Halo is one of my 336 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 3: phaves because it's organic. So many sports drinks have so 337 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 3: much junk in it. It's organic and also for many 338 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 3: people that just need the electrolytes, but they don't need 339 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 3: the calories from sugar fuel properly, they just need the hydration. 340 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 3: It's a really incredible option. So I'm a super fan 341 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 3: of that. It's organic light, it's really the only calories 342 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 3: come from organic lemon juice, so that's great, and then 343 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 3: it also has the electrolytes, so it's a super amazing 344 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 3: option that never really existed before. I'm a massive fan. 345 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: We're easing into talking race day nutrition, so really quickly 346 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: give me some insight into what a pre race meal 347 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: should be. And something of note which I think is 348 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: really important to talk about is think about when your 349 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 1: race actually starts and when you're doing that quote unquote 350 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 1: breakfast pre meal. Because in New York, for instance, you 351 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: could get on a five thirty ferry to Staten Island 352 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 1: and you're not starting your race until ten. So ask yourself, 353 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 1: would I be eating three hours before I go out 354 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 1: on my long run. 355 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: No, you wouldn't, probably. 356 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 1: So being really realistic about when you're having that breakfast 357 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: meal and sometimes that means bringing it with you instead 358 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: of having it at home. 359 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, And again it depends whether or not you're eating 360 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 3: sixty minutes before seventy five minutes, ninety minutes, the amount 361 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 3: of carbohydrate you're going to have, and a lot of 362 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 3: that has to do with again practicing, But what's most 363 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 3: I'd say the general rule of thumb for people, aside 364 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 3: from practice, is that you don't want a lot of fat. 365 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 3: You don't want a lot of fiber. And that's you know, 366 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 3: some protein's okay, like again, and some fat's okay, but 367 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 3: you're really looking to get in those you know, more 368 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:11,399 Speaker 3: carbohydrates there. You do want it broken down generally many 369 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 3: people having it broken down is just it's easier to digest. 370 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 3: So then your body isn't working at hard digestion, it's 371 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 3: at digesting the food. Your body you know you've got 372 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 3: your your blood isn't going to your digestive tract to 373 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 3: like digest, You're you're using your energy better for your run. 374 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 3: So for example, that's why I love a smoothie. Many 375 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 3: people smoothies work really well because it's you know, the fruit. 376 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 3: They could have fruit in there, they could have a 377 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 3: little bit of perhaps protein powder. Maybe they have a 378 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 3: little bit of a nut butter. But maybe there's like 379 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 3: a good amount of fruit. And whether it's you know, 380 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 3: depends depending on the person. Maybe they want almond milk, 381 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 3: maybe they want milk, maybe they use water, you know 382 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 3: it really it really depends on the individual. But that 383 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 3: fruit can provide really good amount of carbohydrate and then 384 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 3: a little bit of fat and protein can satisfy them. 385 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 3: But at least it's broken down, so it's kind of 386 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 3: pre digested. You can think of it that way. So 387 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 3: that can work for people other people. Even just a 388 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 3: slice of bread, so that's not too it's not too 389 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,920 Speaker 3: much fiber. So if it's like even like a sour 390 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 3: dough piece of bread with peanut butter on it, again 391 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 3: you're getting in some fat and protein but not overloaded 392 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 3: with it. It's not like fried potatoes or something. You're 393 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 3: speaking my language. 394 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:33,479 Speaker 1: Ye, my pre race go to is this is so random, 395 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: a big old thin with peanut butter and jelly on it. 396 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 3: Okay, So that's exact, so exactly where I was going. 397 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 3: We're almost that's so funny. So I was going to say, 398 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 3: like sour dough with peanut butter and so and then 399 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 3: maybe some fruit on the side, like a banana or 400 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 3: even put some strawberries on top of that or something, 401 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 3: which is basically the same as your jelly. 402 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 2: So it's the same thing. 403 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 3: It's you're getting some bread, you're getting extra a little 404 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 3: more even carbohydrate from the jelly or the fruit, and 405 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 3: that fruit again will have fiber. So sometimes something like 406 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 3: a jelly could even be better because it's already kind 407 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 3: of mushed up and it's just a little bit already 408 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 3: broken down. So yeah, depends on things like that. So 409 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 3: that's like, yeah, so that's a great pre race. 410 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: I'm so glad it's it's glass been approved. Okay, so 411 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: then we're in the race. We're running, We're going, it's crazy. 412 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 1: There are obviously different strategies. Again, practice is key, but 413 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: I would say the rule of thumb that I have 414 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: always abided by for fuel is I'm taking in either 415 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: a goo or eating a serving of the energy choose 416 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 1: every four miles or thirty minutes. 417 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 2: So that's a great rule of thumb. 418 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 3: I have generally used the twenty to thirty minutes, okay, 419 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:51,439 Speaker 3: a half to a hole of what you just said, 420 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 3: a goo or a chew or whatever it is, so 421 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 3: kind of saying the same thing. It's just a matter 422 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 3: of do you feel like you need it twenty minutes 423 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,199 Speaker 3: in thirty minutes? And I think the most import and 424 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 3: thing again is that practice and knowing if you start 425 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 3: fueling it twenty minutes versus thirty minutes versus forty minutes, 426 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,119 Speaker 3: how do you feel at two hours in? And for 427 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,360 Speaker 3: some people when they start fueling a little bit earlier, 428 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 3: they feel like they never kind of get behind right. 429 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,199 Speaker 3: And then for other people they just don't need it 430 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 3: as much and it makes them kind of makes them 431 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 3: not feel good. So again it depends, but that's a great, 432 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 3: great rule of thumb. 433 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 1: And tell the hurdlers why the fuel is important. Why 434 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: is it important to fuel? Because some people are like, 435 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 1: I don't want to eat, it makes me nervous. But 436 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 1: what is the fuel doing for your body? 437 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,640 Speaker 3: Well, you need energy to do anything right, to breathe, 438 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 3: to think, So you're running, you're burning a lot of calories. 439 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 3: You need fuel, and you know you've got a gas tank, right, 440 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:47,959 Speaker 3: So you've got this gas tank of fuel, right, your 441 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 3: glycogen store, so that gas tank can expand. So when 442 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 3: you're training and you refuel, that's the time actually that 443 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,160 Speaker 3: you kind of get to expand that gas tank. So 444 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 3: everyone has and obviously you know, and I'm sure your 445 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,399 Speaker 3: listeners probably hear about hitting the wall. That's when that 446 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:09,440 Speaker 3: gas tank is just done and depleted. So I mean, 447 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:10,360 Speaker 3: have you ever hit the wall? 448 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: Oh? 449 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, it's definitely a feeling. 450 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 2: It sucks. 451 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 3: So the reason you want to fuel is you're still 452 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 3: going to end up going on a long race dipping 453 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 3: into that glycogen store, dipping into that gas tank. But 454 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,120 Speaker 3: the as you continue to fuel throughout a race, it's 455 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 3: like you're you're prolonging that feel that gas tank being depleted. 456 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 3: So and you're keeping yourself feeling good. And that's why 457 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 3: some people don't hit the wall. 458 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 1: Right, Okay, So twenty to thirty minutes we talked about 459 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 1: I mentioned goose choose. There's so many different things and 460 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: again it's a trial and error. I was with a 461 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 1: girlfriend at dinner last night, She said she was running 462 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 1: with someone who was eating that, like the smushed fruit 463 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 1: baby food pouches, and she tried it. She felt great. 464 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: She was like, maybe I'll give this a whirl. So 465 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: it's just everyone is different. There are a lot of 466 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: options out there. And a good tip that Robin arzoangi 467 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 1: last week was there might be notice of like there 468 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,959 Speaker 1: being goose or something on the course. That's great, but 469 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: be your own plan B. So you should go into 470 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: a raise carrying all of the fuel that you think 471 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 1: you will need. 472 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 3: One hundred percent because even if there is like, just 473 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 3: depend on water on the side. 474 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 475 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 3: But if you have a drink like Halo I just mentioned, 476 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 3: that is your go to. If you have something like 477 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 3: honey sticks like I mentioned, or you know, you like 478 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:30,439 Speaker 3: certain energy chews or whatever you like, you absolutely have 479 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 3: to have it because, like I said, and I've said now, 480 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 3: we've said so many times, practice practice, practice, and you 481 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 3: don't want to try something new, you know, race. 482 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 2: Day, got it? Okay? 483 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 1: And the last thing we have to talk about when 484 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: you're done, what are we refueling with. I mean, my 485 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 1: go to personally is like a burger and fries, and 486 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:50,200 Speaker 1: I swear. 487 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 3: To God I was just thinking, I swear to God, 488 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 3: I was just thinking, don't say burger fry. 489 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 2: I got you. 490 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,239 Speaker 1: Okay, So, if aside from maybe after you do this 491 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: burger situation, what should you be keeping in mind going 492 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: forward after your RaSE? 493 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 2: Okay? 494 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,679 Speaker 3: So, first of all, after marathon day or something like that, 495 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 3: and you want to go and have your burger and fries, 496 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 3: I mean you know, you might just go and do 497 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,360 Speaker 3: that and have a good night's sleep, get a massage 498 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 3: and all that. But if you're doing long runs training 499 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 3: to prepare for an event that, like I just mentioned, 500 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 3: that's the time to increase your glycogen store. And that's 501 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 3: the most that's the time. Also, your muscles are prime 502 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 3: to grow and repair, right, so you need to repair 503 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 3: your muscles. You need to increase that glycogen store right after. 504 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,439 Speaker 3: So in your when you refuel, you want to make 505 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 3: sure that you're getting in carbohydrate, like I said, super 506 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 3: important for that glycogen tank, for that, for your gas tank. 507 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 3: You want to make sure that you're getting in protein. 508 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 3: Although continuing to get protein for the next twenty four 509 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 3: hours consistently throughout the day is throughout this twenty four 510 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 3: hours is important because that will also help grow and repair. 511 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 3: But I do like people to get it right after 512 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 3: because it also helps satisfy you.
