It has been a LONG time since most of us have had the opportunity to race, which might lead to being a bit rusty.

Today we talk about why there is no secret diet for runners, why you shouldn't obsess over macros and micros, why we can't stand "Scare Tactic" coaches/professionals, and what we DO think is important, nutritionally, for runners.
WARNING: This is not our typical Training Tuesday episode. This is us on our soapbox. This is a rant-filled episode. This is not necessarily one to sit down with your notebook and learn golden truths! Today is about getting some frustration off our chest. The health and fitness industry has some trends that we don't love, so we are breaking form and addressing them.
