Episode 162: Dial in Your Nutrition for Boston and Beyond: Kelsey Beckmann Pontius, RD, Is Back!

We welcomed registered sports dietitian and two-time Olympic Trials Qualifier, Kelsey Beckmann Pontius, back to the podcast. In this episode Kelsey maps out a fueling blueprint for Boston that can also be used for any marathon. Nutrition is the one element of our training that we can control, so why not optimize it now?! Kelsey is the owner of Meteor Nutrition (www.meteornutrition.com) through which she provides nutrition services to runners of all levels.  Kelsey grew up playing competitive soccer, and eventually ended her career as a D1 soccer player to become an elite distance runner.  Her advice in this episode is golden. With less than two months to go until the Boston Marathon, now is a great time to map out a nutrition plan, and implement that plan during training runs to train your gut well before race day.  Kelsey shares how and why training with fuel and racing with fuel are game changers for runners of all levels. In addition to her website, Kelsey can be found on Instagram at www.instagram.com/sportsdietitankelsey or on Facebook at @meteor nutrition.  We are so thrilled to share Kelsey's knowledge and expertise with all of you.   Please leave us a five star review on wherever you get your podcasts.  This helps other listeners find us.
