Use These Strategies to Maximize Your Running Nutrition with NO Extra Work

From what to eat before runs to how much macros and calories we
need to properly fuel and recover without gaining weight, running
nutrition can often seem complicated and difficult to follow.


Sports dietitian Kylee Van Horn doesn’t believe it has to be this
complicated. In fact, she’ll give you simple, actionable
strategies to make your running nutrition plan easy to plan and
stick to.


Some topics we discuss…


Do you need to eat before you run, especially if you are a
morning runner?

What do we need to eat before, during and after a run.

How to balance legitimate and healthy weight loss goals with

LMNT

When coaching endurance runners of all levels to be their best, I
always emphasize the need for proper hydration with the right
balance of electrolytes.  Most athletes I’ve coached are
surprised to learn that their sodium needs are actually much
higher than they expected and it’s been hurting their
performance. 


Part of the reason athletes need much more sodium than they think
is not just because they lose electrolytes through their sweat,
but also because athletes tend to eat very healthy diets. They’ve
been told that salt is a bad thing in food and frequently don’t
get enough for their lifestyle. 


Much of the science of sodium is based on people who eat highly
processed diets which also are very low in potassium. It could
actually be the low potassium levels causing the issues that
sodium has been blamed for! 


What is clear is that both sodium and potassium at the proper
levels are essential for high performance (and for life in
general!). 


That's why we partnered with LMNT to offer a free sample pack of
their electrolyte mix.


Head to drinklmnt.com/runnersconnect to get yours now. The Sample
Pack includes 8 packets of LMNT (2 citrus, 2 raspberry, 2 orange,
and 2 raw unflavored).
