Episode 60: The latest on how recovery can be affected by your menstrual cycle
In this episode, Keely, Corrine, and Hillary discuss the latest UTMB scandal and races like Javelina 100 and Big’s Backyard. Then they dive into some research that has been published lately around menstruating and performance, the relationship between menstrual cycle phase to metabolism and sleep.
