Endurance Fueling For A Keto Athlete [2:00]   Cassandra says: Dear Robb + Nicki, First off...thanks for the great job you two do in making complicated nutrition and fitness information easy to access and understand (even for uneducated gym rats like myself).  I&#39;ve been listening to the podcast for years, reading the blog and the books (just got Wired to Eat) and I still find myself learning something new almost weekly. Bottom line up front - how do you guys recommend tackling post-workout nutrition for endurance / high-intensity sports while on the keto train? I&#39;m 35, 5&#39;8&#39;&#39;, 155 lbs with a fairly muscular build.  I&#39;ve been doing the Crossfit + weightlifting thing for 5-6 years now (4-6 times a week).  I&#39;ve got 10 strict pull ups, a 250 lb 1 RM back squat, a 285 1RM DL and can hold an L-sit for a minute....so I think I&#39;m pretty strong(?) - in some aspects anyway ...  Strict bedtimes at 8:30 every night with 8 hours of sleep, no injuries, no severe reactions to any type of food (except tequila) - BUT I perform and look a lot better when I&#39;m strict about paleo.  I&#39;ve been eating that way and it has been keeping me fueled really well in the aforementioned training situations.  Due to the nature of my job - active duty Marine, I am required to run a 5k every year for time...so I do incorporate running into my weekly routine - usually no more than 15-20 miles a week...long-ish runs mixed with hill sprints or pushing sleds so I don&#39;t die of cardio boredom. Within the past year - - due to losing a bet or being shamed into them (I can&#39;t quite remember), I&#39;ve also been running a few half marathons and one marathon.  I plan do to one more full later this year, the Rock n Roll in Las Vegas - mostly because its an excuse to travel to Vegas with some girlfriends of mine. The low-carb/paleo diet has been awesome for my health  on the weightlifting/crossfit/sprinting side of things... but I&#39;m struggling with the endurace side of my fitness. For my runs more than 90 minutes, I&#39;ve been fueling with some organic stinger chewies/gels near the end of my run and then other, whole-food-type carbs at the end....bananas, berries, coconut water...sometimes gatorade, (an occasional beer :)), etc.  My recovery has been OK...not awesome though (and when I take out the mid-run or end carbs, my energy tanks and my joints hurt for days)..... it takes me about me 1-2 days to get through my soreness for half marathons and almost 5 days for a run more than 22 miles WITH the intra and post-carbs. I&#39;ve recently jumped on the keto train in January...did your masterclass, read Mark Sisson&#39;s book, started listening to a lot of low-carb / keto b
