Back of the Pack: Why Nutrition Isn’t Just for Fast Triathletes

October 23
23 mins

Episode Description

Think nutrition is only for podium chasers? Think again.

In this inspiring chat, we meet Dr Sarah Barr, a proud back-of-the-packer, cancer survivor and one determined triathlete chasing big endurance goals including a full Ironman for her 62nd birthday. As a long-time calorie counter and clean eater, Sarah thought she had nutrition sorted... until she realised she had no idea how to fuel as a triathlete.

We dive into:
• Why nutrition is just as critical for slower athletes
• Common fuelling myths that leave back-of-packers bonking
• How Sarah overcame restrictive mindsets to fuel with purpose
• What she’s doing differently to chase her next big goal

This episode is a must-listen for any triathlete who’s ever thought they’re “too slow” to need a proper fuelling plan.
