About Jorge

I have been running marathons for 10 years, of which the last 3 years I began to take this sport much more seriously, with a scientific approach, in 11 months I managed to qualify for Boston and improve my marathon PR from 3:48 to 3:04
I studied Biology and a Master's and PhD in Biotechnology at Tec de Monterrey, where I focused a lot on nutraceuticals, food, analytical chemistry and the blue economy.
I currently work as a scientific advisor and consultant for different companies, I have a supplement company for endurance sports. I like to talk and share scientific information about running
