Stephanie Hnatiuk, RD, PTS, Running Coach
I’m Stephanie Hnatiuk, Registered Dietitian (RD), Personal Trainer (PTS), and Certified Running Coach- but most runners know me as Steph, The Runner’s Dietitian. I’ve spent over a decade helping runners fuel with confidence and get more from their training. As both a coach and a runner myself, I know firsthand how frustrating it is to feel stuck, underfueled, or unsure what to eat. That’s why I created Fuel Smarter, Run Stronger. To take the guesswork out of nutrition and give you simple, science-backed strategies you can start using right away. When I’m not coaching or working with athletes, you can find me out on the roads training for my next race (with plenty of snacks in hand, of course!)
