Coach Tips: Fueling Advice for Runners | Team RunRun | Scott Fauble

Fueling is one of the most overlooked performance tools in endurance sports and one of the easiest ways to leave free speed on the table. In this video, Team RunRun Coach Scott Fauble breaks down how runners should approach fueling before runs, during workouts, and on race day. Scott explains why fasted running is often counterproductive for endurance athletes, why carbohydrates remain the primary fuel source for runners, and how under-fueling can limit both performance and recovery. Coach Scott walks through practical pre-run fueling strategies, including what to do when you don’t have access to ideal food options. He also explains why workouts are the perfect opportunity to train your gut, practice race-day nutrition, and build the ability to absorb more carbohydrates during hard efforts. You’ll learn how much fuel most runners should be targeting before runs, during workouts, and throughout a marathon. ⸻ Relevant Links Get Coached by Scott Fauble on Team RunRun ➡️ https://teamrunrun.com/coach/scott-fa... ⸻ Follow Team RunRun    / @teamrunrun     / teamrunrunllc     / teamrunrun   Website: https://www.teamrunrun.com Follow Coach Scott Fauble https://www.x.com/scottfaubs   / sfaubs   Website: https://scottfauble.com/ #runningcoach #marathontraining #runningnutrition #endurancetraining #sportsnutrition
