2016 Recap

Jumping on the 2016 recap bandwagon….

In summary, I met a lot of great people! Oiselle Volée  and November Project people are some real inspiring people. I mean, who wakes up early to run, do pushups, and have fun? November Project! And who has an adult running camp- Oiselle Volée sure does!

Random things that I learned throughout 2016

Running- I learned I loved running the Chicago Lakefront path. There was lots of good running and races (see shadow photo?).

Yoga- It sure does help my running, but it also balances me overall. It helps me deal with daily stress, so I don’t stress.

Strength training/  bodyweight exercises- Don’t quite strength training to train for a marathon, you’ll possibly end up injured like me.

Nutrition – Yes, it’s important. Then again I guess I knew that, after 6 years of nutrition/ dietetics education. Although to be fair, I notice when I slack in eating healthy foods, my training and overall health suffer.

Work- Who knew I’d come up with Hangover Hacks?  Other highlights include connecting with other RDs, writing blog posts, nutrition facts panel updates, lots of emails, much more.

Sleep- Gotta get that in. I like a solid 8-10 hours depending on my training.

Trucker Hats- Is it just me or do I look good in hats, especially Trucker hats? (see Bend photo below).

Travel- It’s a toss up. I love Bend and Boston. Great People and food makes for  great places.
