Cook Eat Run, a podcast that talks to runners about real food. Hosted by Charlie Watson; Registered Dietitian, author of Cook Eat Run, and thirteen time marathoner.What to eat on a long run, and when to start fueling during a marathon. Gels vs Real food. Do you need to take caffeine during a marathon? And what about electrolytes...This week on the podcast I am talking to Anita Bean about something I’ve got very wrong in the past, on the run fuelling. With everything going on in the world right now, I know that marathon training and race nutrition is probably not top of your agenda. However, I hope that listening to this week’s podcast or reading the advice in this blog might help with training and future racing (and take your mind off things for a little while!)Anita is a Registered Nutritionist, health writer, author of three dedicated cook books, and multiple sports nutrition titles, 29 titles in total! She is also the Official Nutritionist for the London Marathon, for Ride 100 and Good Housekeeping Magazine, which is where our paths first crossed about nine years ago! Berry Chia Bites recipe link Hosted on Acast.
