Have you ever wondered "What are some of those 1% things I can do to become a better runner?" Well, as my guest Brian Livingston scientifically describes, one of these things is fueling. And in my opinion, fueling may be a lot more than a 1% difference. Being properly fueled not only puts you at an advantage, but is actually necessary to perform well in the first place. As Brian so eloquently describes, Maurten can be that proper fuel for your gas tank. 

In this episode you will learn:

* The difference between Fueling & Hydration 

* Why carbohydrates are crucially important for athletes 

* The science behind how Maurten works and why it's superior to every other fueling brand

* Why it's important to fuel for training and even distances as short as 1500m 

* The benefits a younger runner can gain by using Maurten's products 

I hope you all enjoy science class with Brian Livingston! This one was a blast to record, and Lex, Leo, and I are all very passionate about how well Maurten's products work. Let us know in the comments if you've ever used Maurten before (:
