Are runners getting nutrition completely wrong? From carb loading and race-day fuelling to supplements and the latest nutrition trends, how much of what we're told actually works?

In this episode of the FORDY RUNS Running Podcast, we're joined by a PhD Sports Scientist to separate the facts from the fiction when it comes to running nutrition, performance and recovery.

We put YOUR questions to the expert, tackling some of the biggest myths and misconceptions in running nutrition. Do broccoli shots really improve performance? How important is carb loading before a marathon? Are runners fuelling properly, and are some popular nutrition products simply overhyped?

We cover:

🏃 Running nutrition – what actually matters for performance?

🍝 Carb loading – how much do you really need before a race?

⚡ Race-day fuelling – getting your nutrition right for longer distances.

🥤 Supplements and sports nutrition – what's backed by science and what's just marketing?

🔬 Nutrition myths – separating scientific evidence from popular running trends.

💪 Recovery – how nutrition can support your training and help you bounce back.

Whether you're training for your first 5K, chasing a half marathon PB or preparing for your next marathon, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you make better decisions about your running nutrition.

No gimmicks, no unnecessary hype – just an honest conversation about what the science really says.
