Is chocolate milk the best recovery drink after a run or workout? Talking to Running Coach Jason Karp about the study and what other drinks they tested. Plus the most random thing that’s happened to me at the grocery store! Follow @RunEatRepeat on Instagram for updates and go to RunEatRepeat.com for the notes.
Today I’m talking to Dr. Jason Karp – one of the authors of the original study on chocolate milk as a recovery drink. I’ve been wanting to cover this topic for a while and was all set to talk to an RD when it somehow came up that Jason – who I’ve known for a few years now, worked on the first trial. WHAT! So I asked him to break it down for us and explain the study, chocolate milk’s benefits and other options for fuel that can work.
I created Run Eat Repeat.com almost 10 years ago to document my marathon training and health journey. Since then… I’ve run over 30 marathons, 50 half marathons, lost 20 pounds and the site grew an amazing following and now it’s also a podcast!

Warm Up:
Okay… I know the warm ups are random – but this is going to be extra. It’s a lil story about how someone with red hair can in fact be Mexican and how that can be confusing to a random racist at the grocery store.
This true story may involve people with questionable mental health (both mine and the stranger). And I try to find the teachable moment for myself in it.
What would you do if someone who didn’t seem to be in a reasonable and rational state said something defamatory about your ethnicity?
Lessons from the interaction:
– I should learn to use my ‘inside voice’
– Maybe I need another grocery store?
– Mexicans can have red hair
