115. UTMB Race Preview, The Science of Salt Intake, and Performance Enhancement from Cooling!
from Some Work, All Play · host David Roche and Megan Roche
We conquered the 7-year itch before talking about how we are constantly testing new interventions (ankle weight warm-ups?!), electrolyte consumption during exercise, the interesting offset between literature and practice with salt intake, the science of cooling interventions and how they can lead to 5%+ performance improvements even in temperate conditions, thoughts about the 2022 UTMB races, our extremely biased predictions with a heavy North American focus, and running's impact on longevity. It's our 8th anniversary celebration episode, so there is some raunchy humor as well. It wouldn't be SWAP without it!
