A healthy diet is essential to aspiring runners. Runner’s World Philippines gives its readers inside information on discovering this ideal diet with its Special Nutrition Issue, which tackles the perils of losing weight and finding the best food for runners.

The July-September issue of the quarterly magazine steps in as a guide to get readers to eat, exercise, and live well in order to optimize endurance and strength before pacing in front of that starting line. Food blogger and triathlete Erwan Heussaff graces the issue and shares some tips on losing those extra pounds and finishing a 21-K run. The formerly hefty and now celebrated triathlete and food blogger boasts of how he disciplined himself with a balanced diet and a developed passion for running. He tells Runner’s World, “Running is a good introspective sport. That’s what I like about it. It makes me think a lot.”

On eating clean, the issue covers special topics on grocery runs for healthy food with a comprehensive list of what and what not to buy from the thousands of choices in your local supermarket. Runners are taught to turn sinful chocolate cravings to their favor with a fuel feature that cites the perks of eating this sweet antioxidant-filled food in the right amount with a complementary nutrient booster. Healthy eating will get runners from the starting point to the end of that finish line in no time. 

Runner’s World realizes the importance of beginning and ending a run in the best way possible, which is why the latest issue emphasizes at-home workouts, the benefits of walking, and energy boosters. Managing editor, Angel Constantino, notes that the goal of this issue is to make readers “get off the couch or go longer and faster.”
