This week's episode is a Q&A where I answer questions submitted by listeners. The questions I answer in this episode include:

• My hemoglobin A1C came back as high in my most recent blood test and my doctor suggested I cut back on carbs and sugar. As a long time runner, can you help put this advice into context? I want to ensure I'm fueled but not negatively impacting my blood sugar.
• I'm a high school runner currently dealing with a bone stress injury and also trying to get my period back. Do you have any advice for how to fuel and cross train for this?
• I'm a division 1 college athlete currently studying abroad and preparing food for myself for the first time. I'm noticing that I'm struggling more with my relationship with food since I have to think more about what I'm eating and preparing, and also have noticed my body shifting. It's also hard because I have non athlete roommates that I compare my food intake to. Do you have any advice on how to navigate this?
• As a high school cross country coach, what advice would you give to the parents of high school runners to help them stay healthy, have fun with the sport, and fuel themselves well?
