Paula Findlay is headed to Kona. 🌺

Earlier this year, made her full-distance IRONMAN debut at Lake Placid - and won!

Now she’s lining up on the biggest stage in the sport at the IRONMAN World Championship in Kona this Saturday.

We’ll be cheering her on all the way from the start line to the finish.

Let’s go, Paula. 👊

Mile 20. Legs are heavy, brain is foggy, and every runner around you looks like they're fighting the same battle. This is the wall — and it's almost always preventable.

Your body stores about 90 minutes of glycogen. After that, you're running on whatever you brought with you. The fix is simple: 30-60g of carbs an hour, starting around 45 minutes in, before you feel like you need it.

Practice it in training. Race day should feel like just another long run, minus the surprises.

Your sugar-free electrolyte drink might be working against you.

Here's the part most labels don't tell you: sodium doesn't absorb well on its own. It needs glucose to unlock the door into your bloodstream — and water follows right behind. Skip the glucose, and you're hydrating slower, even if the electrolytes are technically "in there."

This is exactly why Endurance Fuel pairs carbs with electrolytes instead of treating them as separate problems.

Science lesson over. Go hydrate smarter 💧

Coffee before a race: hydration hack or dehydration risk? The research says you can put the myth to rest.

Moderate caffeine doesn't drain your electrolytes or dehydrate you, that idea's been floating around for years without much science behind it. What it does do is block the fatigue signals in your brain, which is exactly why so many endurance athletes reach for it late in a race when the mental game gets hard.

The real key isn't whether to use caffeine, it's how. Time it 20-60 minutes out, keep the dose moderate (3-6mg/kg), and pair it with real electrolytes instead of an energy drink loaded with sugar and not much else.

Save this for the next time someone tells you to skip your pre-race coffee.

Bonking isn't bad luck. It's a math problem.

Coach Josh Rogerson found that out the hard way — hitting the wall on 20-mile long runs before he figured out he just wasn't fueling them. Now it's simple: carbs before, carbs during, carbs after. Every time.

No single workout makes you fast. Showing up fueled, over and over, does.

Fall marathon season means faster paces, cooler mornings, and a fueling plan that actually matches the effort you're putting in.

Here's the truth: your PR doesn't happen on race day. It happens in the hundreds of small decisions leading up to it, what you eat before a run, what you sip during it, how fast you recover after. Marathon runner and coach Brittany Charboneau treats her nutrition with the same consistency she treats her training, and it shows.

The formula isn't complicated. Carbs before you start. 90g an hour once you're moving, paired with fluids and sodium. Protein and carbs the moment you're done. Rehearse it now so it's second nature by race day.

Your perceived limits are often just fueling limits. Save this and fuel like the PR is already yours.
