What is up, fellas? Welcome back to Convos Over Colbro, with me, your host, Emma Abrahamson.

Today I had an awesome discussion with Maddie Alm, who is a registered dietician, and has her own practice called Fuelling Forward.

She is also a professional runner for a team boss in Boulder, Colorado, and she ran for the University of Colorado as well and was an all-American there.

She has a lot of good insights.

She works with a bunch of pro-runners and I thought I would bring her on

just to kind of answer your guys' questions about nutrition kind of disprove some

myths out there about nutrition and yeah this episode is basically a Q&A with all of

your questions that you guys asked on the convos over Cool Brew Pod,

Instagram. So I'm excited to answer all of your guys's questions and let's get

straight into the episode. Maddie, welcome to the podcast. I'm excited to have you on. Can we get a little bit of a rundown of who you are and what you're about?

Yeah, thanks so much for having me.

My name's Maddie. I am from Colorado.

I ran for the University of Colorado Boulder

and was all American in the 1500 there and then I went on to pursue a

career in nutrition so I got my master's at San Diego State and finished my

supervised practice in Nashville and then moved back to Boulder last year

where I'm training with team boss and started my own nutrition consulting business

called Feeling forward.

Awesome and how long did the like whole process take you to be you're a registered

dietician right? Yes I am. How long did that whole process take you?

Oh gosh, so I was in school for a total of eight years, but I took five years in undergrad to continue running.

So yeah, about eight years.
