    Pretty much every runner deals with injury setbacks. The silver lining is that the recovery process can teach many important lessons.

    This week’s show brought to you by:

    Ketone-IQ

    You may have read a lot the last few years about the benefits of ketones for endurance performance, such as mitochondrial efficiency and glycogen sparing.

    Your body uses ketones for energy typically during fasting, long periods of exercise, or when you don’t have as many carbohydrates.

    The problem is that you typically need to severely reduce your carbohydrate intake in order to take advantage of them, which is difficult to sustain, even for the most dedicated runner.

    But, thanks to Ketone-IQ you quickly deliver ketones to your bloodstream, putting you into ketosis within minutes without the need to fast, restrict calories or carbs, or exercise away your glycogen stores.

    And the academic literature on the effectiveness of ketones for running performance is overwhelming.

    For example, a 2021 study demonstrated that the ingestion of ketones improved mitochondrial efficiency by 7% and 2019 study concluded that using ketones significantly enhanced endurance performance while minimizing overtraining.

    MAS NAD+ for Runners

    Did you know that by Age 40, your NAD+ levels can be half of what they were at 20? And they only go downhill from there.

    This is important because lower NAD+ levels have been shown in research to impact some of the hallmarks of aging such as reduced muscle strength, lower mitochondrial performance and overall energy.

    But, just because NAD+ levels decline with age doesn’t mean you have to accept it.

    NAD+ from MAS Edge is a groundbreaking formula that can increase your NAD+ levels by 67%.

    Their unique formula enhances absorption by 71% and increases uptake and utilization in the body by 167% compared to generic NAD+ supplements.

    This means you can slow muscle loss, improve recovery, increase your energy levels, and fight aging at the cellular level.

    You can check out the results yourself at masedge.com/nad. Plus, runnersconnect fans will automatically save 20% on any purchase.

    If you’re ready to fight all the typical signs of aging and feel a decade younger, this is no-brainer.

This week’s show brought to you by: Kila Running When we first got connected with the team at Kila insoles, they explained that they can make high-performance insoles perfectly designed for your feet within days, just by using the Kila Running app. All you have to do is open the app and place the phone on the ground, then take a few photos of your feet using the FaceID camera. This allows them to create a full 3D scan within minutes. They don’t even need your shoe size! Once you get past the weirdness of taking photos of your feet, it's pretty cool to see the images for yourself and then get the notification that the scans are being sent to their North American orthotics lab. After that the insoles arrive as fast as that same week. Kila isn’t the first company to use an iPhone or iPad to scan your feet for orthotics—it’s actually becoming the standard method doctors and sports medicine clinics use to create a foot cast. But Kila is bringing that same technology to the direct-to-consumer space, at about one-quarter the cost. Most insoles feel bulky and rigid, but Kila custom insoles are more like having a layer of supershoe foam underfoot propelling you through your stride. All you have to do when they arrive is slip out your old insoles and put these in. It might take some getting used to the full-foot contact but it’s pretty amazing how great they feel and you won’t be disappointed. Just head to kilarun.com and you can get $70 off your first pair and with a 60-day money back guarantee. Creatine Gummies Designed for the Needs of Endurance Athletes You’ve undoubtedly heard about the benefits of creatine. It’s been heralded as the single most effective legal supplement on the market. But, if you’ve tried it before then you know creatine can also lead to stomach issues, bloating, cramping and can be hard to take consistently. Well, not any longer with the first creatine gummy formulated specifically for endurance athletes from MAS Edge. Unlike cheap powders, MAS Edge creatine gummies contain micronized creatine, which is a 100% soluble type of creatine with superior bioavailability. That means they are specifically formulated to be absorbed quickly so it’s gentle on the stomach, eliminates water retention, and doesn’t give you the bloated feeling you may have experienced with traditional creatine powders. Plus, the gummies are so delicious that you’ll look forward to taking them every day. If you’re ready to experience a pure, fast-acting creatine that fuels your muscles, enhances your performance and helps you recover every time you train then you have to check them out.
