ABOUT THE PODCAST
The Fueling Forward Podcast is a passion project of mine that has been on my mind for a long time. Having been in practice as a sports dietitian for over 5 years working with hundreds of runners, and having been a runner at multiple levels of the sport myself, I've seen recurring themes around nutrition and performance across all levels and ages.
​
I began noticing that almost every single runner at some point has struggled with their relationship with food, body image, and even with the sport as a whole. I would hear from one runner who's story made me immediately think of another runner and I would say to myself "wow, I wish that runner could hear this runners story". Another thing I was consistently hearing from these athletes was "I wish I knew this earlier". This was a lightbulb moment for me when I realized how many people would benefit from hearing these stories, and from there the podcast was born!
​
My goal with the Fueling Forward Podcast is to create a space for runners (and other endurance athletes) to share their nutrition related experiences within the sport, both positive and negative, to help empower and inspire other runners. I want my listeners to know that they aren't alone in their struggles, and I want them to hear inspiring stories that will give them hope, confidence, and a sense of community. Some stories are more intense than others, but not all of them are just about struggles. I hope you enjoy this labor of love and find something useful in these episodes!

This Week's Episode: Q&A
Episode 5: Q&A with Maddie
This week's episode is a Q&A with me, Maddie Alm, registered dietitian and former elite runner.
I answer questions submitted by listeners, and today I cover:
-
How to handle pre-race nerves, both from a mental and fueling standpoint speaking from some of my personal experience
-
What are some special fueling considerations for breastfeeding moms?
-
Is vitamin water zero a good post training recovery drink?
-
How long should a run be before you recommend adding fuel?
-
My legs feel extremely heavy and tired, what could that mean and what should I do?

It's not that you can't get through a run without fuel, but fueling during those longer runs can help more than anything with recovery
