Fuelin Sessions

In this episode of Fuelin Sessions, Scott is joined by Fuelin dietitian and triathlete Megan Foley. They discuss a new study of female athletes at the 2024 Nice Ironman World Championships that found most fell short of their carb-loading targets, why the gap on race day is rarely about knowledge and almost always about execution, how "eating clean" and too much fiber can sabotage a race, the finding that athletes who fueled more finished faster, the mindset shift from training to eat to eating to train, and the lack of female representation in sports-nutrition research.

In this episode of Fuelin Sessions, Scott is joined by running coach and writer Mario Fraioli. They discuss his recovery from disordered eating and the "lighter is faster" myth that still lingers in endurance sport, the influence a coach's words can have on an athlete for decades, the super-shoe and fueling revolution behind today's tumbling marathon times, why no endurance champion trains low-carb, and a candid take on doping and the case for more transparent testing.

Content note: this episode discusses disordered eating. In the US, the National Alliance for Eating Disorders runs a free, clinician-staffed helpline (allianceforeatingdisorders.com).

Are shortcuts killing what makes sport worth doing? Scott Tindal and co-host Jan dig into the Enhanced Games and performance-enhancing drugs — and why taking the easy route strips away the consistency, the work, and the discomfort that give endurance sport its meaning.They also take on the optimization trap — why athletes become "prisoners to the numbers" with wearables like Whoop and Oura — before getting practical on real-food fueling, protein and meal timing, and the carb-loading science most athletes get wrong.
