Description

Feel like you're crashing mid-run…even though you're following a plan and doing “all the right things”? This episode breaks down the real reasons women runners hit the wall during long runs, and spoiler alert: it's not just about the miles. From under-fueling to misunderstood carb timing to gut training (yes, that’s a thing!), I’m giving you practical, science-backed tips you can start using this week.


Whether you’re currently fueling with gels, real food, or coffee and vibes, this episode will help you stop bonking and start thriving.
