We all want to be healthy, right? We all want to be faster, better runners, right? What happens when our quest to "be healthier" becomes something more dangerous and restrictive?

  • Why it's so hard to change our deeply held beliefs and emotional ties to certain ways of eating
  • The spectrum of orthorexia and the choices we make around food
  • The aspirational/socio-economic factors of "clean eating"
  • The allure of restrictive diets
  • Unintentional underfueling
  • "Clean race fuel" options
  • Injury risk with underfueling
  • RED-S and why weight loss "works" to make you faster at the beginning (before causing serious issues later on)
  • How to unpack your own relationship with food
  • and more!
