Nutrition Myths for Ultra Runners

Zoe Rom and Kyle Van Horn host Your Diet Sucks, a podcast for runners about how to unf*ck your food.

In this episode we discuss the complexities of nutrition for ultra runners.

• Common misconceptions (is milk useful midrace fuel?)
• Importance of a structured fueling plan
• Psychological aspects of food choices in the context of athletic performance.

The conversation emphasizes the need for a nuanced understanding of diet, the role of community in dietary choices, and practical tips for optimizing nutrition during races.
