Welcome

FOOD FOR THOUGHT 2026 includes eight 60-minute virtual group sessions starting July 12th through October, leading you right into NYC Marathon Race Week. We'll cover a specific topic each session with time to share insights, dig into questions, and learn from each other.

Learn strategies to fuel your runs, conquer GI issues, optimize hydration, and build the mental strength to cover all 5 boroughs on race day.

As a registered dietitian and RRCA Level 1 running coach, I'll lead the weekly discussions. You'll also learn a great deal from the shared experiences and questions of others in the group. Each year brings a unique mix of voices — and that's what makes it special.

Whether it’s your first 26.2 or your fifteenth, this program is for runners who want to:


🍌 Fuel long runs without bonking


😰 Navigate nervous stomachs


🌡️ Handle summer heat + hydration


🍽️ Recover smarter


🧠 Prepare mentally + physically for race day
…and feel more in control of their training.

You’ll walk away with:


✅ Science-backed strategies


✅ Practical tips you can actually use


✅ A deeper understanding of your needs


✅ The confidence to fuel your journey through all 5 boroughs
