Episode Synopsis

In today’s episode, we are chatting with Kristy Baumann. Kristy Baumann is a Registered Dietitian, marathon runner and momma to a 2-year old girl with baby #2 on the way.
As a new runner, she thought she was eating healthy to support her training. In reality, she was eating too 'clean' and unknowingly was restricting calories, cutting out fat and ignoring hunger signs. Food was constantly on her mind and she had a big sweet tooth. These were all signs of under fueling that resulted in recurring injuries and a poor relationship with food. It wasn't until she began to change her mindset around food, understand the science of nutrition and how the body works that she was able to learn to fuel properly, feel more energized and improve her running.
Now, she is on a mission to help other runners learn how to fuel their bodies well  without restriction or following fad diets. Having a positive relationship with food is the foundation of fueling for your best performance. You can follow her on IG @marathon.nutritionist.
