How To Train Your Gut For Race Day

How many times have you been in a training run or race
environment where issues like nausea, bloating, or cramping have
interrupted performance? 


Or how often have you tried to experiment with the latest drink
mixes, gels, and bars only to find yourself back at square one
wondering what will keep you properly fueled and focused on the
task at hand during prolonged exercise? 


Personally, I’ve lost count of how many times gut distress and
nutrition choices were the limiting factors on my performance in
these scenarios. And that’s why I’m excited to have Robert
Wilson, a professor of exercise science and registered dietitian
on the podcast today. 


Robert wrote a book a few years ago called “The Athlete’s Gut:
The Inside Science of Digestion, Nutrition, and Stomach
Distress”.


In this interview, we use his research to talk about the sources
and remedies for common gut distress issues that runners face.


We dive deep into the nutritional strategies that runners can
implement to execute their most important, challenging runs in
training and on race day.
