Welcome to season 2, episode 30 of The Fuel Run Recover podcast, where we're answering the simple, but interesting questions... why are intra run fuel recommendations given in grams per hour of running, not by weight?

| Protein Powder and Your Gut Health with Jack Schrupp from Drink Wholesome | 04 Jun 2024 | 00:39:37 | |
Welcome to season 2 episode 19 of The Fuel Run Recover podcast, where I'm so excited to bring you this great conversation all about protein powder with Jack Schrupp, founder of Drink Wholesome! A little bit about Jack: Jack created drink wholesome in 2020 because he wanted a protein powder that didn’t upset his stomach, and he made just that using a short list of simple ingredients. At the time, there were no protein powders made specifically for people with digestive issues, so drink wholesome filled a significant gap in the market. Jack has now sold over 1,000,000 pouches of protein powder to people with sensitive stomachs. Before starting drink wholesome, Jack was a two-sport college athlete who later worked as a high school teacher and ski coach.

Are you struggling to lace up and get out the door for your runs? Burnout and overtraining are real and can impact anyone.

| Discovering a Love of Running with Laura Lutes | 27 Nov 2023 | 00:51:41 | |
In this week’s episode, I sat down with Laura Lutes, a Fuel Train Recover graduate who shares her super relatable journey of going from 'effortless athlete' as a teen and young adult, to needing to learn the right ways to train and fuel her body to actually enjoy running and stay (mostly) injury free. A new(ish) runner, Laura began running consistently in August 2020 while living in Ottawa. Despite some apprehensions about going from casual runner to racer, Laura is looking forward to her very first trail race, with her sights eventually set on the Squamish 50km. Even though Laura doesn't describe "running as my therapy" (she says she has therapy for that!), Running is an important coping mechanism for her. She sees it as a chance to get out of her own head and go on little adventures in her neighbourhood and local trails. Running with her dog Goose always helps slow her down to allow for his sniff breaks! If you’re looking for some additional help with improving your running performance, I would love to help you out!
