Episode 2 - The Zero Calorie Ultra

YDS is supported by ⁠⁠Microcosm Coaching. ⁠

Would you run 100 miles with zero calories? Should you?

In episode two, we break down the history - and the science - of fasting. We dive into why athletes seem drawn to a mentality of doing more with less fuel and the potential benefits of fasting compared with the downsides.
