Mike McKnight is one of the most accomplished and respected ultra runners in the sport to date. He has placed first in multiple 200+ mile races, including all of the races within the Triple Crown of 200’s. He’s also the FKT holder for the Colorado Trail, and has completed two 100+ mile runs with zero calories. One of his biggest keys to success (besides his incredible mindset)? A low carb nutrition strategy. He’s become one of the biggest examples of how powerful a low carb lifestyle can be to running; so much so, that he’s known as the Low Carb Runner. In this episode, Michael and I talk about his inspiring story of how he became an ultra runner, why he decided to go low carb, the science behind it, and a recap of his most recent 24 hour run done without consuming any calories.
