There are so many nutrition questions that runners, cyclists and triathletes frequently ask. Questions people debate out on their run or ride, in the coffee shop afterwards, or search online for answers to.
This book answers those questions. Based on the award-winning podcast Fueling Endurance (formerly The Long Munch), it’s a collection of written articles covering the first two years’ worth of questions featured on podcast. The book is packed with practical tips and suggestions, as well as stories and quotes from expert researchers, nutrition practitioners, coaches and athletes who have been guests on the podcast.
The articles are written by the podcast co-hosts Alan McCubbin PhD and Steph Gaskell PhD, both Accredited Sports Dietitians who combined have almost 40 years experience working with runners, cyclists and triathletes, from complete beginners to professional and Olympic athletes.

Each part of the book can be read as a standalone article, or in a section together. They provide an invaluable resource for the runner, cyclist, triathlete, or coach seeking to improve their nutrition game, and address common questions or challenges they face.

There are 49 individual questions answered in the book, grouped into the following sections:

• Fueling

• Specific nutrients and supplements
• Putting it all together – practical and logistical concerns
