Race Day Nutrition for Endurance Athletes Ep 92

Join Coach Chris Newport, lead performance nutritionist at The Endurance Edge, who discusses how race day nutrition for endurance events lasting over two hours isn’t one-size-fits-all. It takes a personalized, well-rehearsed plan that accounts for your unique physiology, the demands of your race, and the realities of fueling on the go. When done right, it can be the difference between crushing your goals and crawling to the finish.Tune in to learn:Why sticking to a single carbohydrate source might limit your performance—and how mixing the right types can unlock up to 90g/hour of energy.When your fueling strategy can fall apart if your gut isn’t ready—and how to “train your gut” like you train your legs.How hydration needs shift with heat, intensity, and even your outfit—and why copying someone else's strategy could backfire.What sweat testing reveals about your personal fluid and electrolyte losses—and how this data helps you fuel smarter, not harder.How to top off your energy stores before the race without risking gut issues—and which common mistakes to avoid.Why race-day nerves might sabotage digestion—and how to keep your gut in the game when stress levels rise.What to do when things don’t go as planned—because having a Plan B (and C) can save your race.Want to perform your best at your next endurance event?
