Summary
Sports nutrition is confusing. Sports nutrition for endurance athletes is even more confusing. And sports nutrition for midlife female endurance athletes? That’s where a lot of women end up working incredibly hard… and getting nowhere, because they’re trying to outtrain a fueling problem. This week we sat down with sports dietitian and endurance athlete Meghann Featherstun of Featherstone Nutrition to talk about the fueling mistakes that women often struggle with the most: iron status, energy availability, carbohydrate fueling, hydration, and GI distress, along with the emerging complications of GLP-1 medications. Meghann Featherstun, MS, RD, CSSD Owner and founder of Featherstone Nutrition ltd, Meghann has been working with endurance athletes as a board certified sports dietitian for the last 10 years. Passionate about helping runners, triathletes, and active individuals crush their biggest, baddest performance goals through solid daily & performance nutrition. A 3:58 to 2:49 marathoner herself, she knows what it takes to use solid nutrition to elevate potential as an athlete.
