Prioritizing nutrition to fuel your best year of running yet

For some runners, the holiday season represents a break from training; for others, it’s the perfect opportunity to start ramping up toward big goals in the year ahead.

Regardless of where you find yourself, the end of one year and the beginning of the next marks a perfect time for all runners to start planning for their next training and racing goals. And while plenty of athletes will be obsessing over their Strava year-end and setting even loftier targets for the new year, many might be overlooking an area for improvement that’s equally ripe for the taking: their nutrition. 

This week on The Shakeout Podcast, we’re joined by registered dietitian Sandra Kilmartin of No Sweat Nutrition. Sandra’s joint passions for running and nutrition come together in her work helping athletes of all abilities fuel better, feel better, and get the results they want through real-world nutrition solutions. Today, she joins the show to talk about steps runners can take to make sure they’re giving their bodies the fuel they need to perform, how to avoid some common race-day fuelling pitfalls and how to create a nutrition plan that works with you to achieve all your running 2026 running goals.
