Podcast appearances and mentions of meghann featherstun

" I just needed to do all of those things for myself before I really talked about it publicly. Plus, I was not in a great head space about it at first, as most people aren't with a big injury," says well-known sports dietitian Meghann Featherstun, RDN MS CSSD, in regards to the post where she shared her sacral stress fracture injury at the end of 2024.  Meghann Featherstun, aka "Feathers" (if you're a "Fuel for the Sole" listener), and maybe best known by her private practice's name and Instagram handle, Featherstone Nutrition, joined Lane 9 to talk about her running experiences—including her first marathon, the 6 World Marathon Majors in 18 months, her recent injury, and more. Featherstun is a 2:51 marathoner, breaking the 3-hour mark for the first time in 2019 and getting faster from there. And she's on Instagram weekly sharing accessible and easy-applicable sports nutrition information for the everyday runner.  (Think you can't fuel before your run? Her graham-crackers say otherwise!) This episode also covers:  the real reason Meghann signed up for her very first marathon in 2009 the lessons she had to learn for herself before specializing in sports nutrition how everything came together for her to complete the 6-star World Marathon Majors goal in only 18 months the process of coming to terms with her sacral stress fracture and then sharing with widely, which isn't easy to do how she's been recovering from that injury and of course, sports nutrition! Trends, carbs (not a trend!), sodium (also not a trend, but kind of is!), and eating adequately for performance.  Follow Meghann on Instagram @FeatherstoneNutrition.  Follow Lane 9 on Instagram @Lane9project.  To find a clinician to work with, go to Lane9project.org/Directory and match with a dietitian, therapist, physical therapist, and/or coach from our network.  And hey, if you like this episode, let us know!

This episode of the Female Athlete Nutrition podcast is with  sports dietitian, runner, and mom of two, Meghann Featherstun. As well as helping other athletes with their fueling, Meghann is a rockstar athlete in her own right with multiple marathon finishes. We talk about how she uses her professional knowledge to help her own performance, leading to her best races aged 40 after having kids. We dive deep into marathon and endurance nutrition, focusing on pre-race nutrition. Meghann gives listeners great travel nutrition tips, as well as advice for dealing with gastrointestinal (GI) issues. Meghann and I talk all about carbohydrate loading: the what, why, when, and how. We then focus on understanding your hydration needs by measuring your sweat rate, and the importance of replacing sodium losses, avoiding over- and under-hydrating. We bust some myths around sodium fears, weight gain during a carb load, and emphasize the reality that athletes likely need more carbohydrates than they think. To better understand your unique carbohydrate and hydration needs, Meghann has some amazing resources: Meghann's quick carb calculator and sweat rate/ hydration calculator.

On this week's episode of the pod, Jess chats with Meghann Featherstun about the Netflix docuseries, "You Are What You Eat." The pair kick things off with a summary of the premise of the docuseries (which centers around the purported benefits of a vegan diet) and the study upon which it was based, the "Stanford Twin Study". They dig deeper into the specifics of the study design, study findings, strengths, and limitations. The two discuss certain clinical markers used in the study to piece together the impacts of a vegan diet (compared to an omnivorous diet). They more generally discuss ways to improve your health through nutrition and debunk some common myths and misconceptions. You do not want to miss this!

"Whenever we do something that we really invest in and that's hard — and that we're not sure we can do — it's a reminder of the ‘we can do hard things' aspect. And I'll always get to say that I did this." Emily Oster is an economist, a professor at Brown University, and a best-selling author of books including Expecting Better, Cribsheet, and The Family Firm. And she just made her marathon debut at the California International Marathon (CIM), where she finished in 3 hours 17 minutes and 39 seconds. In this conversation, Emily talks about her decision to run 26.2 miles (which she twice swore she would never do, during her first and second appearances on the Ali on the Run Show), about working with coach Kaitlin Goodman and sports dietitian Meghann Featherstun, and about her race-day experience.

Welcome to Episode 76 of the Eat for Endurance Podcast, featuring fellow sports dietitian and runner Meghann Featherstun (MS RD CSSD) of Featherstone Nutrition. I've had carb loading on my list of topics for awhile now, and I couldn't think of a better dietitian to tackle this one with me than Meghann. She is known for her love of graham crackers, and she literally sells a shirt hat says “carb monster” on it, so I knew she would be down to chat about carbs with me!We touch on Meghann's background as a clinical turned sports dietitian, as well as her journey to becoming a 2:49 marathoner (we recorded the week after she clocked her PR in Berlin!). Then we dive into ALL things carb loading. This episode will teach you WHY carb loading is beneficial, WHEN carb loading is appropriate (SPOILER - for any race over 90 minutes!), and HOW to do it properly. We will also address many of the common issues that we see as Sports RDs and questions that we frequently get from our athletes. I hope you enjoy this one and find it useful as you prep for the NYC Marathon, or any other endurance events you have coming up in the future!Links & Resources:Meghann's Website (including her carb loading calculator): https://www.featherstonenutrition.comFollow Meghann on Instagram (@featherstonenutrition)Announcements:Have nutrition questions, a guest or topic request, or any other feedback?

"This is just fun to me. We put so much pressure on the outcome of these races. We want to prove ourselves, prove we can run a certain time, and I understand all those feelings. But I just think if you truly love running and love to train, the goal race is a celebration of that." Everyone's favorite graham cracker-loving sports dietitian returns to the Ali on the Run Show today — this time, as a 2:49 marathoner! In this conversation, Meghann Featherstun, owner of Featherstone Nutrition, talks about running a personal best at the Berlin Marathon, just days after her 40th birthday. She talks about the big feelings she was feeling around that 40th birthday, about her approach to training and racing (she's coached by former Ali on the Run Show guest Meaghan Murray), and about "giving it everything she has and hoping it's enough."

Food is fuel, right? But what kind of fuel is best for our lives as runners? And perhaps most importantly, how do we integrate great nutritional choices into our busy lives? It doesn't seem like there are many simple answers in the world of nutrition… at least not until you hear from today's guest! Meghann Featherstun is a Sports Nutritionist, entrepreneur, athlete, mom, and so much more.  In this week's episode, she joins the podcast to discuss why nutrition is such a crucial component to lasting enjoyment and success in running, and how to maximize every opportunity to fuel well for performance and recovery. Meghann shares insight into:  Why all carbs aren't created equal, and how to fuel appropriately with both simple and complex carbohydrates. Carb loading tips for athletes to maximize race day performance. Why caloric and carbohydrate intake recommendations aren't dependent on ability-level, and how to use intensity as a key measuring stick for your fueling strategy. How protein supports the body's ability to perform and recover, plus why you should establish a goal amount of protein to consume with each meal. Why hydration is a 'make or break' aspect of your performance, along with key signs of dehydration in your training and daily life. Thank you so much to Meghann for joining the podcast.

"You really have to want it. It takes the discipline of the training, the discipline of honing in on your nutrition and hydration, and understanding what that means. And the day to day practice of really, really wanting to make this thing happen. It's all the little pieces that you have to tie together perfectly. And then you have to have a great day! Everything has to come together on the day. It's a lot." Meaghan Murray-Neuberger is a 2:47 marathoner. But before you think, "Whoa, 2:47 marathoner — I can't relate to that," consider the possibility that you can, in fact, relate. Meaghan wasn't born a 2:47 marathoner. She spent more than five years and ran more than 10 marathons in her attempts to break three hours. Once she did that, things started to click. She dialed in her nutrition (shout-out to Meghann Featherstun!), learned about hydration, and started doing all of the "little things" that make a big difference. In this conversation, Meaghan talks about the major mental unlock that happened when she broke 3:00 for the first time. She talks about racing under pressure, and about learning to run her own race. Plus, all about what it's like being the managing partner of Believe in the Run. This weekend, Meaghan will make her 10K debut at the B.A.A. 10K! (Still time to sign up!

In Episode #54 of the More Than Miles Podcast, physical therapists Dr. Kate Mihevc Edwards and Dr. Kacy Seynders interview sports dietician, mom, and runner, Meghann Featherstun, MS, RD, CSSD. Meghann has been a dietician for 15 years and started out as a dietician in a hospital setting before transitioning and becoming certified as a sports dietician to focus her efforts on working with endurance athletes and runners! She first took up running after graduate school and since has completed 12 marathons with a marathon PR of 2:50 in 2022 and a recent Boston Marathon PR of 2:52:14 in 2023. Meghann loves the work she does and has helped over a thousand runners and endurance athletes in the last four years to trouble shoot and maximize their nutrition to support their health and sports performance. During the interview, Dr. Kate and Kacy talk to Meghann about her transition to being a small business owner in owning her own nutrition consulting business, Featherstone Nutrition. As part of her services, she offers one-on-one and group nutrition coaching and regularly posts recipes and fueling tips on her blog and social media channels like Instagram @featherstonenutrition. They also talk about some of her fueling strategies for runners and the timing of this nutrition before, during, and after workouts and races. Meghann regularly tests out fueling strategies within her own training and has been known to put together some interesting combinations of “toast” breakfasts including a recent Instagram post of peanut butter, pickles, veggie sausage, and sriracha hot sauce on toast! She also has a self-professed love of bagels and graham crackers, both to fuel workouts and as carb loading strategies going into a marathon race (checkout her website for a free Carb Load Guide). Meghann also talks about some “myth busting” that she regularly does in educating clients how to deal with issues such as GI issues, hydration, and timing of nutrition (HINT: not all gels are created equal!). She also talks about some of the misconceptions that arise from some nutrition tactics that are often passed around (but ineffective) in endurance athlete culture. She also talks about some of the research on coffee and caffeine's influence on performance including the pros and cons of caffeinated energy gels. We know you will love the nutrition tips and tricks that Meghann talks about in this episode, so give it a listen!

Runner's are obsessed with food. Whether it's wondering what to eat when or simply dreaming about our next meal while we're on a run, our brains seem to have a one track mind and it's headed straight for the kitchen. On today's episode, I'm sharing my conversation with running dietician, Meghann Featherstun. She is a runner, fueling expert, and a must follow on instagram! But you probably already know that! Listen in as we cover the what and when of eating and hydrating as well as tummy trouble and how you may be able to leak less if you struggle to retain your fluids.

Many people choose plant-based alternatives to cow's milk for themselves or their children because they want or need to avoid dairy. Others believe these non-dairy drinks are healthier than cow's milk. But a close look at the nutrition profile of these beverages, which include milks made from almonds, soybeans or oats, shows that plant-based milks may not be as healthful as they seem. UH registered dietitian Meghann Featherstun, MS, RD, CSSD, LD, walks us through the most popular non-dairy milks, how they stack up against cow's milk -- and the potential impact on children's nutrition.
