Today on the podcast, we’re joined by Dr. Allen Lim, a sports scientist, cycling coach, and founder of Skratch Labs. We covered a wide range of topics related to nutrition and hydration for endurance athletes, starting with the importance of treating food as culture rather than just technology. From there, Allen went on to discuss timing issues for eating before workouts, the difference between water and electrolyte drinks, and the importance of respecting thirst. Allen emphasizes the importance of listening to your body's thirst cues and not overthinking hydration. He says that "performance is sometimes science, but it's also sometimes grandma," which we think sums up his intuitive, yet informed approach to hydration and athletic performance.

For the first time in 18 months, some of the top race directors in America gathered this week to share best practices and to explain what fall races will look like for runners. Will there be expos? Will you have to wear a mask on the course? Will you be asked to show a vaccine card? What about wave starts and post race parties -- will they happen? We got the answers to these questions and many more from the 6 race directors we cornered at a conference produced by the organizers of the Chicago Marathon. Before we dive into that conversation, we wanted to share a few words from Mike Nishi, Chief Operating Officer of the Chicago Marathon, as he explains the goal of this conference and why so many race directors chose to fly to Chicago to trade ideas about producing the safest possible events this fall and beyond.
