Description
Welcome!
And thanks for listening.
In this episode, I sit down with Scott Hoover, also known as No Carb Runner, an ultrarunner and race director of Ultra Ultras. Scott shares his journey from struggling with anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and weight gain to discovering keto and eventually a carnivore diet. We discuss how he went from barely running half a mile to completing ultramarathons, including 100-mile and 200-mile efforts, while experimenting with zero-carb endurance running.
We also explore traditional carbohydrate fueling, hitting the wall, recovery, and Scott’s experiments with ketones and continuous glucose monitoring. Beyond running, Scott shares his personal experiences with diet and mental health, his transition away from long-term benzodiazepine use, and the rewards of helping others through ultramarathon race directing. It’s a conversation about challenging conventional wisdom, learning from experience, and rethinking how we fuel our bodies.
Thanks as always for listening.
