In this quick but info-packed episode, host Natalie Rizzo, MS, RD, shares her best fueling strategies for the New York City Marathon—from carb loading to race day breakfast and everything in between. Learn how to plan your pre-race meals, what to eat the night before, and why you’ll need a “second breakfast” before hitting the start line. Natalie also dives into common mistakes runners make on race day (like trying new foods) and how plant-based runners can make sure they’re fueled, hydrated, and ready to crush all 26.2 miles. This episode will help you feel confident, energized, and well-fed from start to finish.
