About this episode

The episode discusses the perceived failure of the Enhanced Games, explores hyper carb fueling strategies, and highlights record performances at the Comrades Marathon.

On paper, the Enhanced Games was a massive failure, but was success the real goal or something bigger? Hyper carb fueling strategies are all the rage right now, but is there more to this approach than gut training on race day? The Comrades Marathon produced course records on both the men's and women's side of the event.
