We all know that carrying unneeded weight on a run will either slow you down or wear you out faster. But what if the real extra weight you're carrying isn't in your shoes or pack, but in your cells as stored body fat? For many runners, this is true.
We're not advocating weight loss at all costs here, not at all. But if you do have extra body fat, moving towards a way of eating that both fully fuels you and allows your body to release extra fat stores is truly the biggest flex you can make in your running.
You'll buy the new shoes, crush a mega track workout, and spend half your Sunday on a long run, but will you do the one thing that gives the most compound benefits for both your running and health in the short and long term?
