I am incredibly excited to speak at this amazing summit on a few topics that I am passionate about. I look forward to passing on research, experience and tips to improve the health and performance of endurance athletes of all fitness levels and ages.
Nutrition and training tips
for the
female endurance athlete
Marni Sumbal, MS, RD, LD/N
Over the past two decades, more and more women are training for endurance events, such as marathon running and triathlons. Female endurance athletes continue to break down barriers such as racing post pregnancy, balancing careers and training and keeping the body in good health all while training for long-distance events.
However, even though women may be primed to tolerate the metabolic and mental demands of endurance training and racing, a female body is very unlike the male body and very limited research is conducted on the female athlete. Sadly, much of the training and fueling tips for endurance athletes is studied and applied to male athletes.
In addition to body size, there are many physiological differences between the female and male athlete. Because of the continued number of female athletes in endurance sports, it is important that female fitness enthusiasts understand their unique physiological and nutritional needs when it comes to training for events lasting more than 3 hours.
To ensure longevity as a female endurance athlete and to minimize immediate and long term health problems, the following objectives will be discussed during the presentation:
1) Body image: learn how to develop healthy relationship with the body
2) Nutritional needs: essential nutrients to consume to reduce the risk for stress fractures, anemia and amenorrhea
3) Training considerations: the importance of strength training in a cardio-focused training plan
4) Menstruation - are female athletes limited by menstruation and should training/diet be modified during the monthly cycle
5) Sport nutrition - understanding how to meet the demands of training by fueling properly before, during and after workouts
6) Mental toughness - destroy stereotypes, stay fierce and release your competitive side!
