Maple Culinary Ambassador
Portrait
Brady shares his world of running, nutrition coaching, and ultra-marathon racing, from Ocean Grove, Victoria, blending performance fuelling with practical, no-nonsense advice. Coaching has always been his way of helping athletes find food that supports both training and life, without overcomplicating it.
His love for maple syrup, a staple in his own race nutrition for years, makes his role as a maple ambassador especially meaningful. He’s drawn to its natural energy, clean ingredients, and versatility, using it as a go-to alternative to processed gels and refined sugar in training, racing, and everyday meals.
Brady is excited to share how he fuels everything from marathons to multi-day ultras with maple syrup, hoping to show athletes that natural, simple ingredients can perform at the highest level.
