About this episode
Regardless of your age, all of us are getting older. Do nutritional needs change as we age?
As trail runners, we know the incredible impact that nutrition can have on our performance. But as we age, our bodies undergo changes that require a more strategic and mindful approach to fueling ourselves for the long run. That's why, in this episode, we dive deep into the fascinating world of longevity nutrition strategies, focusing on those specifically designed for the aging athlete. Returning TRN friend, Bob Seebohar, helps us uncover some strategies.
