154. Post-run Nutrition for Runners (everything you need to know)

Welcome to episode 154 of the Marathon Running Podcast, the podcast for runners who want to maximize their performance and health.    In this episode, we're joined by registered dietitian Serena Marie, RD, to discuss the importance of post-run nutrition for runners. We dive into topics such as the appropriate time to start fueling after a run, what happens to our bodies during a run that makes nutrition important, and which nutrients are essential for recovery. Serena shares her expert advice on how runners can determine the amount of food to consume based on their individual needs, including factors such as body size and exercise intensity.    We also discuss the importance of consuming high-carbohydrate foods to replenish glycogen stores and protein to repair muscle damage after a run. Serena provides helpful tips on planning and preparing post-run meals and snacks, even for runners with busy schedules.   Additionally, we explore the topic of protein powder and what to look for when choosing a supplement, as well as the foods and supplements that runners should avoid after a run.    If you want to improve your running performance and enhance your recovery, then you won't want to miss this episode!
