The Eat for Endurance Podcast

Welcome to Episode 21 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast, featuring a discussion of food allergies and intolerances with NYC-based dietitian, Chelsey Amer, MS RD. This is an important topic and one that often causes confusion, especially in the landscape of all the fad diets out there. It’s also one that I can relate to, as I developed a severe shellfish allergy in my early 20’s, so I’m glad that we...

Welcome to Episode 20 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast, featuring four-time Olympian and legendary distance runner, Meb Keflezighi. Like many of you I’m sure, I have admired Meb - both his athletic accomplishments as well as his character - for many years.

I’m very excited to kick off Season Two of the Eat for Endurance Podcast with ultrarunner, mountaineer, adventure racer, speaker, and author, Marshall Ulrich . As an athlete, Marshall’s list of accomplishments is impressive, to say the least (and still growing, too). Just to name a few: he has climbed Mount Everest, crossed Death Valley on foot (in July) a record 22 times, completed the Seven Summ...

Welcome to Episode 16 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast, featuring recreational cyclist and runner, Jacqui Cincotta . Jacqui is a former nutrition client of mine who worked with me back in 2018 on improving her everyday diet and her approach to sports nutrition during training and racing.

Bringing you all a spontaneous, short episode recorded on this Thanksgiving morning with my 2 year-old daughter and special guest, Arielle! She REALLY wanted to wish you a very happy holiday - no, seriously, she really did. Ever since recording her last episode over the summer, she has wanted to record another. So here you go! :)  Just a friendly reminder as we all head into our Thanksgiving meals...

Hey guys! I’m excited to bring to you my second Ask Me Anything episode, which also is my first episode recorded post-baby. It’s a short one but I’m still amazed I was able to get this done towards the end of my 7-week-old’s morning nap, without any crying interrupting me (just a doorbell, cause you know, endless Amazon packages of who knows what I ordered in my middle of the night delirium…). Thi...

“Instead of focusing on how fast I could go, or how many miles I could run, my main mission every day was to see how many calories I could burn. It became a game. I got more excited by seeing low numbers on the scale than I did by seeing faster splits on my watch.” - Mario Fraioli Welcome to Episode 12 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast, featuring running coach, writer, and podcast host, Mario Fraio...

“Everyone is a runner. Some just chose not to run or don’t know how to start.” - Coach John Welcome to Episode 11 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast , featuring running coach, consultant, and unofficial celebrity marathon pacer, John Honerkamp . We’re in the thick of Fall race season, so I thought it would be the perfect time to interview Coach John. If you’re a runner in NYC, you’ve most likely hea...

Hey guys! Welcome to Episode 10 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast .  In honor of just having had a baby, I thought it would be fun to post this VERY short interview with my two year old daughter, Arielle. She always has lots to say about food and running, which isn't a big surprise given her runner parents and nutritionist mother (that said, she clearly does not understand what I do for work.....

You asked, and finally received - it only took me 8 episodes, but I finally got around to doing an Ask Me Anything show to answer your burning nutrition questions! At the time of recording (and of writing these show notes), I am almost 39 weeks pregnant and trying to take my mind off of playing the waiting game (i.e. simultaneous desires to get this baby outta me right now, and also - but wait sta...

Welcome to Episode 7 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast, featuring Registered Dietitian Lauren Antonucci . Today’s topic of fueling young athletes (i.e. through the collegiate level) is one that I am particularly excited about, as I love working with this client population, and as a parent myself, hope to raise my girls to enjoy physical activity as much as my husband and I do!  Lauren is the perfec...

Welcome to Episode 5 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast , featuring Jason Fitzgerald of Strength Running . Jason and I met back in 2015, when he moderated a nutrition panel I was on at an Endurance Sports conference. We kept in touch thereafter, and I was excited to be a guest on his new at the time podcast to talk all about the impact of pregnancy on running and nutrition, towards the end of my fir...
