Today on the podcast, we’re talking about something that most runners think they understand but almost always get wrong.
It’s the subtle, sneaky stuff we do around food that feels harmless… but consistently slows our progress, stalls fat loss, and keeps us struggling more than we should.
This episode is called “The Hidden Ways Runners Overeat (Without Realizing It),” and once you hear these patterns, you’ll start seeing them everywhere.
We’re diving deep into mindless eating, “healthy” overeating, weekend creep, training hunger, emotional snacking, and—most importantly—how to take back control.
If you’ve been running consistently but not seeing the changes you expected… if your eating feels mostly “fine” but something still isn’t working… or if you’re tired of feeling like you take one step forward and one step back, this episode will give you the clarity you’ve been missing.
