256. Why Runners Need Help Losing Weight

I’ve received a lot of comments on my social media posts over the years basically saying that if you are a runner, you shouldn’t need help losing weight. Comments like, “If you want to lose weight, just run more”, or, “I lost all the extra weight when I did the ‘couch to 5k’ training program”, or, “If you’re a runner, you shouldn’t need to lose weight.” The main thought behind these types of comments is that if you run, you shouldn’t be overweight and that running, in and of itself, is all you need to do in order to lose those extra pounds. These are nice ideas, but they just don’t hold up in reality. In this episode, I’ll address all the reasons why runners need help losing weight, and why it doesn’t involve running more miles.
