    In this episode, Brady shares how gut issues, 75 Hard, and the influence of David Goggins helped shift his mindset and eventually led him to quit his trade career and study nutrition. He talks about spending six months travelling through Europe, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia, continuing to run while overseas, and deciding to post on Instagram every day despite fear of judgment and Australia's tall poppy syndrome.

    Matt and Brady also dive into endurance nutrition, including GI issues, low fibre intake, artificial sweeteners, gut training, carb loading, race fueling, liquid carbohydrates, sugar water, maple syrup pouches, Maurten, caffeine, cadence, injury, HYROX, and Brady's goal of returning to finish the London Marathon.
