Dear Reader

​
Smoothies are so much more than a fast meal in a glass—they’re a powerful addition to any runner’s nutrition plan.

✔️ Easy to digest (perfect pre- or post-run)
✔️ Packed with carbs, protein, fats, fibre and micronutrients
✔️ Great for energy, recovery, and even injury prevention

In this new article, I share how to make smoothies strategic—not just sweet. From quick pre-run blends to post-run muscle repair, you’ll get recipes, tips, and simple formulas to make smoothies work for you.

👉 Read the full article: Why Smoothies Deserve a Spot in Your Runner’s Food Plan​

Whether you’re training for a race or just want to feel energised and nourished, this one’s for you.

Cheers to blending smarter!
