What do you eat?

I get asked all the time, “What do you eat?” I'm about to let you in on a shocking secret, the answer is "Not what I should!" Luckily for you though, I’ve been spending the past few months changing that.

It's no secret that when we eat better, we feel better. When I'm eating high quality, nutritionally dense food my energy is up I easily power through 3 days of lifting, 5 Spin classes and 15+ miles of running per week. When I’m eating right I also do not stress about those 15 running miles becoming 30 or more during marathon training (which is starting soon!).

As I continue planning for my increased mileage, I’ll be sharing some of my “fueling for performance tips,” and nutrition log. Eventually I’ll write these principles into a full, three week 'eat this' guide, to share in my Fall Running Clinic. Today, this post will give you a good idea of what direction I’m moving in with my nutrition.
