Cushla is a New Zealand Registered and Accredited Sports Dietitian (SDA) and the founder of her private practice, specialising in nutrition for endurance athletes. Her primary focus is on runners of all abilities, up to elite levels, with a strong interest in addressing issues such as RED-S and disordered eating. Drawing from her experience in diabetes from Te Whatu Ora, Cushla not only maintains a keen interest in diabetes but also in women's health and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Her approach to nutrition involves translating scientific knowledge into pragmatic solutions, crafting realistic and sustainable strategies to empower individuals to nourish their potential.
Cushla has recently released an online 'Runners Nutrition Course' enabling more people to attain nutrition guidance any place, any time, at their own pace. This course is best suited to adult runners partaking in events from their first ever 5km right up to elite marathon or trail running events. You can finish the course with confidence and tools to integrate into your own training and then work on your weaknesses before deciding if you still require 1:1 dietitian support.
The course contains nearly TWO hours of content broken down into 33 bite-sized videos. In each module there are resources and downloadable guides relevant to that topic. At the end of each section and/or module there are quizzes followed by a larger quiz at the very end of the course.
Cushla is offering Race Tekapo athletes a one-time 15% discount! Please email her at holdaway.nutrition@gmail.com to get your unique access code. You can read more about the course and sign up below.
