Nutritional Revolution PodcastAuthor: Kyla Channell, MSc Nutrition & Human Performance
Nutritional Revolution (NR) was created when owner Kyla Channell saw that there was a true disconnect between daily nutrition and nutrition for athletes. Specifically on when and how to use specific fueling methods to achieve optimal performance as well as health in their sport. NR believes that any one person no matter their age, weight, or current struggle can make healthy changes to improve their well being and get closer to their goals through education, motivation, support, encouragement, and the right guidance. In this podcast, we go beyond food & nutrition; we also explore the best practices for better living.

In this episode:How he conquered Leadville, twiceFueling strategies: carbs, hydration, gut trainingThe importance of PT exercises, injury management, and recovery routinesAdrian began running competitively as a sophomore in high school in Massachusetts in 2004 and quickly developed a love for all forms of the sport. After moving to Fort Collins, Colorado in the fall of 2016, he discovered a deep passion for running in the mountains. That passion fully took shape when the COVID-19 pandemic canceled the 2020 Boston Marathon, prompting a shift in his training toward mountain, trail, and ultrarunning.With a new focus, Adrian set his sights on the 2021 Leadville Trail 100. Years of experience and key moments along his running journey suggested success was possible, and those expectations were realized as he earned the 5th fastest time in the race’s history at that time. Training for Leadville marked one of the most meaningful periods of his life, deepening his love for the outdoors and the trail running community. Beyond personal competition, Adrian is committed to giving back to the running community, serving on the board of the Fort Collins Running Club, volunteering at local races, and coaching fellow athletes.
