This episode is a Q&A episode where I answer questions that have been submitted by listeners. This is also the season finale for the 2025 season of The Fueling Forward Podcast! Thank you so much to everyone who has been listening and submitting questions, I can’t wait to come back in January of 2026 with more episodes for you. At the end of this episode, I give some bonus tips on navigating the holidays.
Today’s questions include:
- I have been dealing with muscle soreness after doing PT, are there any foods that could help me like anti-inflammatory or high protein foods?
- I have a hard time knowing when I’m full. I think I serve myself enough food then feel hungry 2 hours later, but I’m not sure if I actually am. How do I know when I’ve eaten enough, and how should I portion my meals?
- Do you have any tips for someone who feels like they look different or bigger than teammates and feels like that’s why they are slower?
- I’m a high school xc and track runner and I’m gearing up for my indoor track season. Do you have any tips on fueling for evening races, as most of my races are between 5:30-9pm?
