The answer might surprise you. After a tough weekend in the Colorado mountains, I learned a valuable lesson that had nothing to do with breakfast and everything to do with fueling your body the right way. While training for HYROX, I attempted an 11-mile alpine trail run after skipping breakfast. The climb felt amazing, but the descent quickly exposed a mistake that cost me performance, energy, and confidence. In this episode, I share exactly what happened, why I started cramping, how two simple salt capsules completely changed the rest of the run, and what every runner, hiker, endurance athlete, and HYROX competitor can learn from this experience.
