Fuelling Success – FAST Running’s Commitment to Healthy Eating Canberra Sprint Coach, November 7, 2024November 7, 2024 At FAST Running, we believe that Running Excellence is built not just on the track but also at the table. Proper nutrition fuels both performance and recovery, and we’re dedicated to supporting our athletes in making healthy, balanced meals part of their everyday lives. That’s why we’ve developed a strong culture of sharing recipes, meal ideas, and even hosting team dinners, fostering a community that values both health and camaraderie. Recipe Sharing: Inspiring Each Other in the Kitchen Among our members, meal ideas and recipes are constantly exchanged—from pre-race breakfasts to post-training recovery meals. We share photos and recipe inspiration, sparking conversation and providing each other with fresh, healthy options. It’s a reminder that fueling our bodies for performance doesn’t have to be complicated; it can be as enjoyable and creative as any workout. Nourishing Dinner Nights: Bringing the Team Together We host regular Fuel Nights, where athletes come to the coach’s home for a nutritious, well-balanced dinner. These nights are more than just about good food—they’re an opportunity to connect, relax, and share laughter in a supportive environment. It’s a chance for our team to unwind, building the bonds that keep our community strong and motivated. Running Excellence from Kitchen to Track These gatherings, along with our emphasis on healthy home cooking, align with FAST Running’s core philosophy: that excellence is a 24/7 commitment. By prioritizing nutrition and supporting each other in these choices, we’re not just building better athletes but a community that values health, well-being, and the joy of running together. Through initiatives like our Fuel Nights and recipe sharing, FAST Running remains dedicated to empowering every athlete to live and perform at their best, both on and off the track.
