🔬 Data coming soon!
Our team from the Sports Nutrition & Performance Bioenergetics Lab just got back from an incredible weekend in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, collecting field data at the Run Rabbit Run 50-and 100-mile ultra!

Four of our incredible student researchers (3 grad students, Kaitlyn, Lincoln, and Grecia + 1 undergrad, Yasmine) put in countless hours with minimal sleep running participants through a massive testing battery: from cognitive testing and body composition to blood draws, and detailed dietary logs.

We’re diving into the data now to look at the effects of creatine monohydrate supplementation on performance, cognitive function, and recovery in 50-mile and 100-mile trail runners.

Huge thanks to the runners who gave their time (and blood!) right before and after tackling 50–100 miles, and to the race directors for letting us set up shop. Stay tuned for the results!
