Chris Bradley, Finlay McAndrew Episode 39

In this episode Chris and Finlay do a deep dive into how to fuel for endurance sports, from the half marathon up to ultras.

This episode looks at the science behind why the body needs to take on extra carbohydrates and electrolytes during longer runs and races, and lays out the tools to put into practice an effective nutrition plan.
