Welcome to Episode 70 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast, featuring Corrine Malcolm. Corrine is a professional ultrarunner, run and ski coach, co-host of the Trail Society podcast, and Editor-in-Chief at Freetrail.
There's so much I didn't get to ask her even in a 90-min episode, but we did go real deep into her history as a high school and collegiate athlete, specifically as a high level nordic skier and biathlete who also dipped her toes into the running world. Corrine shares her experience with overtraining in biathlon, slowly clawing her way back to health, how she got into ultrarunning, and how her experience of chasing the Olympics as a biathlete affected her mindset as an ultrarunner. I was really amazed to hear that she was “winging it” with her nutrition up until a couple of years ago.
We of course dig into her nutrition background and how it evolved over time, and we also veer off course quite a bit too. That’s okay though - I loved hearing her unique story and I think you will as well.
FYI, we recorded this episode on May 31st, and since then Corrine placed third at the Cascade Crest 100! You can head over to the Trail Society podcast if you would like to hear all the details about that race.
Congrats Corrine and thanks for the fun chat!
