I see everyone around me crazy about foot protection,compression socks, hydration and fuel intake! Im never thirsty or hungry while i run, i never feel tired and i feel just fine on any terrain on my thin 5fingers, but because ive never done more than 17km i have no saying in the matter. It was greatBelbehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11553976360082662849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007684769272060630.post-7130729808250883302015-07-20T08:09:46.279-06:002015-07-20T08:09:46.279-06:00It's Tim Olson.

Ultrarunner podcast does a thing where they ask interviewees about their favorite beer.

When I am recovering my carb intake gets as low as 5%, protein about 20%; leaving fat at around 70-75%. I am also eating less in recovery, because I am not training as hard or at all. When I hit peak training (up to 150mpw, and at times up near 190) I will up my carb intake to between 20-30% (this is without subtracting Zach Bitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15805331253914867928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007684769272060630.post-62270203735988576042014-01-01T13:54:18.657-07:002014-01-01T13:54:18.657-07:00Hi Tuck and Zach,

Good to the low carb being embraced by more and more.<br /><br />Out of sheer curiosity, how much calories/grams of fat do you consume on average on a daily basis?<br /><br /><br />Best,<br /><br />Thomas HemmingAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15037493730542507307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007684769272060630.post-63827930386941142412013-12-27T06:17:30.237-07:002013-12-27T06:17:30.237-07:00Thanks, Zach.Thanks, Zach.Tucker Goodrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09455436946187786398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007684769272060630.post-5115537901455895802013-12-26T11:24:56.391-07:002013-12-26T11:24:56.391-07:00You did your homework :) I can't say you misqu...You did your homework :) I can't say you misquoted or misinterpreted anything on this overview. I would like to clarify that when I discuss macronutrient percentages I am speaking in terms of everything. I don't go back and subtract non-starchy carbs/fiber carbs from the total. So when I say "30%" carb intake that includes all the non-starchy fiber in my diet. I know a lot of Zach Bitterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15805331253914867928noreply@blogger.com
