    137 | Daily Hydration Needs, Post-Run Headaches, Race Day Strategies and Creatine Gummies vs Powders

    28/07/2026 | 41 mins.
    This week on Fuel for the Sole, we tackle several listener questions. We get into how much water you actually need each day — and whether you might be overdoing it. We're digging into what's behind those post-run headaches and what you can do to prevent them. We're talking race day logistics — how to carry all your hydration and nutrition when it counts most. And finally, gummies versus powders — do collagen and creatine gummies actually deliver the same results?

    16/06/2026 | 45 mins.
    This week on Fuel for the Sole, we're tackling a bunch of your questions.
