EP 94 - How Liz Blatchford Managed 120g of Carbohydrate Per Hour on the Bike in Ironman

Liz Blatchford - one of THE MOST successful triathletes of all time.

She had an 18 year professional racing career from 2000 in both the ITU circuit and full distance events. And to top it all off, was inducted into the Ironman Hall of Fame in 2022.

She is now retired from competing, living her best life with her two little people, but is still heavily involved in the sport through coaching.

I wanted to get Liz on the podcast to chat about her Ironman fuelling strategies. She was the first athlete I ever heard of, many years ago before it was a ‘thing’ - that was fuelling at 120g of carbohydrate per hour on the bike. CRAZY for a 60kg athlete!

Tune in to hear how she landed on that fuelling strategy, what products she used and her overall philosophy on nutrition for triathlon as a female athlete.
