but this didn't say anything about lowering their carbohydrate intake, it just said upping their fat intake. All these "studies" are so random anyway - I mean, I could provide "studies" that go against the low-carb theories, but I know they're messed up or tweaked or whatever. I just want real proof, and all runners I know who are successful have a higher carbohydrate diet. True, adding fat may help, but lowering carb intake and upping fat intake is unheard of among all high-caliber runners I know and they are successful. Same with the Kenyans and other elite runners. They don't sit around eating meat all day and under 30 carbs a day.
