Description

In this episode, I delve into the importance of proper nutrition and fuelling strategies for cyclists and endurance athletes with my guest, Jemima Cooper.


Jemima shares her journey from being a ballerina to becoming an ultra runner, highlighting the challenges she faced with nutrition and how optimising her fuelling strategy was a game changer for her performance, recovery, and overall enjoyment of the sport. We discuss the significance of carbohydrates in training, the psychological barriers to fuelling adequately, and the trial-and-error process to find what works best for individual athletes. This insightful conversation is essential for anyone looking to improve their athletic performance and understand the critical role of nutrition in endurance sports.
