    This week on Fuel for the Sole, we unpack the David Bars allegations and go off the rails a bit—you know how we do. Then we get into your questions: why does body mass matter for carb loading but not race-day fueling? What's behind those cold sweats? Can you actually overdo it on protein? Why are gels so hard to get down mid-race? And what's really causing those dreaded mid-race pit stops? Want to be featured on the show?
