Athlete Nutrition Profile - Endurance athlete, scientist, and entrepreneur, Simon Donato

Welcome to Episode 79 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast, featuring Simon Donato, an endurance athlete, scientist, entrepreneur, and life-long adventure seeker.

If you’re not familiar with Simon, he has a really interesting background. He grew up exploring and playing multiple sports, eventually getting into adventure racing while at University. After getting his PhD in Geology, he founded a company called Adventure Science, where he leads teams of Athlete-Explorers on various scientific expeditions in remote parts of the world. He also hosted the TV show Boundless for three seasons, documenting his endurance adventures around the world, and owns Stoked Oats, an oatmeal and granola company. 

Simon lives with his family in Canada, and adventures look slightly different now that he has two young kids, but he is still living the adventurer life. I loved hearing all the details of his athletic and nutrition journey, and I hope you do as well.
