Brady sits down with Dr. Lindsey Hunt, Senior Sports Scientist at Precision Fuel & Hydration, for a deep dive into the science behind race-day performance. Dr. Hunt breaks down evidence-based strategies around carbohydrate loading, optimal caffeine timing and dosing across different marathon paces, and the often-overlooked power of sodium pre-loading to protect blood volume on race day. The conversation also explores heat training, including practical hot-bath and sauna protocols, and why even "mild" race-day temperatures can push core temperatures to surprising highs, making heat adaptation a game-changer for runners at every level.
