Vic Johnson is maybe better known on the internet as Mountain Sports Dietician.
The principles surrounding sports nutrition are relatively simple - applying them is not. Vic’s mission is very simple, to help high performing mountain athletes apply these principles properly so they can fuel and hydrate to make the most of their training and perform well at races.
In this short series of episodes that I recorded with Vic, we’re going to learn more about the topic of nutrition for endurance athletes, without pretending to exhaust the topic, but with the aim to give some practical, handy knowledge that you can apply to your own training and racing.

Matt Daniels is a good friend of mine - we’ve known each other since 2016 - and a great, great athlete and mentor. He lives in Boulder, Colorado. I’ve met with Matt in four different countries this year, and we’ve shared a memorable battle at the Chuckanut 50k in Bellingham WA, in March, where I finished first and he finished second, pushing me all the way to the finish to set a new course record.
After a really good first half of the year, Matt struggled to find the right feelings during training and the races he ran reflected his physical and mental condition. In this episode the main theme is the unique connection between the hardships we face in life and those we experience on the trails. We also talk about his training and preparation for Javelina 100m, why he’s confident he can be successful at the 100m distance, how his track background has both helped and hindered his training as a trail runner, his experience with the Boulder Boys as athletes and content creators.

In this episode Francesco is joined by coach Andy for a conversation around weight, Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport, eating disorders and body image in endurance athletes and endurance sports, particularly trail running.
We give some facts and figures and we share our own thoughts and experiences with these issues. We’re glad that they are becoming less and less of a taboo, but there’s still a lot to be done to prevent them and to help the athletes and the coaches and build a better training and sport ecosystem in general.

As the summer season is coming to an end and especially after last week's UTMB, we figured it's important to re-listen to this conversation with Coach Daniel Rowland on recovery and managing the time after a race.
It’s a very delicate period, both physically and mentally: we need to make sure that we are actually taking enough time to rest after a race and many months hard training, and we need to start laying the foundation of what is next.
In this conversation we talk about how the cardiovascular, muscular and hormonal systems recover at different times after a race, how we can maintain fitness, how long we should recover within the context of a racing season and with an eye to our long term athletic development.
Daniel Rowland is a trail and ultramarathon runner, a Vert.run coach and an expert in endurance science. Follow him on Twitter @dwrowland !
Enjoy!
