FOR EMELIE FORSBERG, THE SECRET TO SUCCESS IS BALANCE

Allison Pattillo
Eat To Win

Winning mountain, ultra and trail runner Emelie Forsberg approaches every race with grit, grace and a smile. Considering her race results, including wins at The Rut 50K, Kendall Mountain Run, Transvulcania, Mount Marathon Race, Hamperokken Skyrace and Matterhorn Ultra to name a few, as well as setting impressive FKTs, including her recent on the Kungsleden Trail in Sweden, the approach seems to be working.

Farm to Table

Forsberg is a creature of the seasons. Her sports are clearly delineated, with skiing her sport of choice during the winter months and running as a go-to from spring into the autumn.

A hobbyist farmer, her cooking and eating habits are governed by the available daylight hours as well. She gravitates toward salads, fresh soups and lighter breads in the spring, while in the darker and colder months she craves potatoes (last year she grew enough to last for the year) and her homemade bean-and-lentil burgers.

Carbohydrate Confusion

When it comes to food and nutrition, we tend to overcomplicate things. Eat this, not that. Run fasted, restrict sugar. Unfortunately, much of the controversy stems from observations and sensationalized media headlines vs. actual data, leaving the consumer more confused from their Google search than they were before.
