On today’s episode of The Runna Podcast, we welcome Dr. Hazel Wallace, a doctor, nutritionist, author, and founder of The Food Medic platform (@thefoodmedic).

Hazel shares her inspiring story of how losing her father at age 14 sparked her interest in health and nutrition, eventually leading her to start The Food Medic blog while still a medical student.
She discusses the challenges of juggling her work as a doctor during the Covid-19 pandemic with running her rapidly growing social media platform.
Hazel opens up about her newfound love of running, which began with struggling through her first 5K during lockdown. She shares how she's progressed to running marathons like New York, despite having asthma as a child.
Hazel touches on the importance of listening to your body and taking your cycle into consideration when training and fuelling as a runner
