The Real Reasons You Aren't Meeting Your Nutrition Goals

If you've ever wondered how other runners are hitting 170–200 grams of protein a day, or why it feels impossible to reach your nutrition goals despite your best efforts, then this episode is for you. This week, we're unpacking three of the biggest reasons runners struggle to meet their nutrition targets. From overly restrictive calorie goals to lingering carb fears and unrealistic protein recommendations, we break down why the math sometimes doesn't seem to add up, and what to do instead. If you've been chasing numbers that never seem achievable, this episode will help you step back, rethink your nutrition strategy, and focus on targets that actually support your running performance and long-term health.
