About this episode
In this episode of Fuel for the Sole, we answer Jaclyn’s question about taper week. We discuss what your nutrition should look like the days leading up to race day and how the body stores fuel. We chat about how to effectively carb load, what race distances require carb loading and why practicing race day fueling ahead of time is so important. Trying to figure out your carb loading plan?
