Saint Paul/Minneapolis Marathon 2026

Training 4+ Times a Week Matters More Than Calories

When you train four or more times a week, what matters most is not hitting a precise calorie number, but maintaining energy availability, protein consistency, smart carb timing, and solid sleep and hydration so performance and recovery can keep up.

HOW TO FUEL A HYBRID TRAINING WEEK WITHOUT COUNTING CALORIES

Hybrid training weeks work best when your food flexes with your training load, eating more on heavy, high-output days and less on lighter days, so you can perform hard, recover faster, and stay consistent without counting calories.

WEEKLY NUTRITION RESET (WITHOUT DETOXES OR CLEANSES)

A 3-day, dietitian-designed normalization reset that replaces detoxes and cleanses with consistent meals, enough carbs, and training-aligned fueling so you regain stable energy, better digestion, and more enjoyable workouts without restriction.
