0:00.0	Welcome to the Running Explain podcast. I'm your host, Elizabeth. I'm a marathoner, coach, and answer seeker.
0:07.3	When I first started running at the age of 29, I had so many questions and what felt like nowhere to turn to for answers.
0:14.1	And now I'm here to answer all your running questions about anything that you might want to know.
0:18.6	If you're a new runner or you or even doing this for a long time,
0:21.1	there's always something more to learn about running. So let's get started. Hey everyone, welcome to
0:27.1	episode four of season three of The Running Explained podcast. I am super excited to have you here.
0:32.2	Shockingly, it is already February. This year is just absolutely starting to fly by probably a little faster than some
0:39.3	of us would like. But before I introduced my guest for this week, I just wanted to give you an update
0:43.4	about all of the awesome ongoing offerings that we have at running explained. Since we're deep into
0:50.1	the new year already, let's not even call it a new year thing. Let's just call it like, hey, you're training for something and you want some support. So as a reminder,

1:08.7	If you're running, I don't know, a 10K and a half marathon in two
1:12.2	consecutive days in one of the happiest places on earth. Those types of plans might be
1:16.4	appropriate for you. Group training is also open and please note that the price for group
1:23.1	training is rising this month. So please lock in the current pricing for group training
1:29.7	if you're interested in joining us for half or full marathon group training. And then of course,
1:34.5	we do have one-on-one coaching available. I would say four of my six coaches who are all awesome
1:41.2	are currently accepting new clients. So if you were looking for truly individualized
1:45.2	support, feedback, personalized training, a coach in your corner for your training, one-on-one
1:51.6	coaching is the offer for you. All right. Let's get to it. My guest this week is sports
1:57.6	dietitian Kirsten's screen of screen nutrition. If you listen to the podcast,
