84: Running Myths Explained: You NEED To...

The Running Channel
About this episode

In episode 84, Andy, Rick and Sarah delve into a question on many people's lips as we approach Autumn marathon season... and that's whether you NEED to carb load before long runs. Andy opens up about the struggle of coping with a recent injury AND the warm down/cool down debate may have been answered from the most unlikely source!

The Running Channel Podcast  tackles one big topic each episode, amongst helpful tips and light-hearted chat on the latest news in the running world. Hosted by Sarah Hartley (amateur runner) and Andy Baddeley (former pro runner) alongside Rick Kelsey (recovering runner), the TRC Podcast is friendly, jargon-free, and the perfect accompaniment to your runs.
