Running on Zero Calories For 24 Hours Straight with Michael McKnight

Mike McKnight is one of the most accomplished and respected ultra runners in the sport to date. He has placed first in multiple 200+ mile races, including all of the races within the Triple Crown of 200’s. He’s also the FKT holder for the Colorado Trail, and has completed two 100+ mile runs with zero calories. One of his biggest keys to success (besides his incredible mindset)? A low carb nutrition strategy. He’s become one of the biggest examples of how powerful a low carb lifestyle can be to running; so much so, that he’s known as the Low Carb Runner. In this episode, Michael and I talk about his inspiring story of how he became an ultra runner, why he decided to go low carb, the science behind it, and a recap of his most recent 24 hour run done without consuming any calories.
