Have you ever struggled to lose weight as a runner, found you can't get your head round carb loading or feel unsure whether your caffeine habits are healthy? Nutritionist Kate Law is a keen runner and mother, and in this week's Running Mums Podcast she shares her advice on all these topics, and so much more.
We chatted about why what we eat is so important for our physical and mental health, how to lose weight safely, and whether this is something that can be done while in a training block for a running event.
Kate debunked some myths about caffeine and carb loading, and shared why practice makes perfect for race day fuelling.
We also chatted about body image, the desire to look like a runner and the warning signs you might be under-fuelling, as well as nutrition advice for breastfeeding runners.
Kate can be found on Instagram and the SMILE study she mentioned can be read here.
