I started this blog because I am in love with reading other people's blogs and wanted to start posting myself. I love to research things about running, optimal sports nutrition, and improving your life, and I want to share all the things I have learned with YOU!
Just so you know, my favorite food to eat is peanut butter! It isn't my absolute favorite food, but I find myself reaching for it everyday. I mostly just like to eat it with apples, in a protein shake, in my oatmeal, or on a sandwich/manna bread.
I am super interested in healthy foods and finding out all the benefits foods give your body. I like to read books to find out what foods have what vitamins and how I can make sure I am getting enough of all the important stuff. I want to become a certified nutritionist someday, but just as a side job because what I really want to do is open my own cafe/maybe fitness place. (Or do something else with the body/fitness...possibly coaching on the side?)
I'm only a junior in high school right now, so I have a little while until a decide my college major, but I still find myself thinking about the subject a lot. I guess I just feel a little uneasy because I am not exactly sure what my direction will be in life...but hey, I like mysteries too(:
I started running when I was in 7th grade and ran on the cross country and track team that year. I got into it more that summer when I joined a middle school running club. Every since then running has been a huge part of my life, and I have been competed in 5 cross country and track seasons. (Well, I am in the middle of my 5th year of track). I love competition and am competitive in almost all aspects of my life - I like to challenge myself(:
I also love to read running books and plan on talking about some of the books I have read on the blog. Kara Goucher is probably my favorite female runner, I own her book too! This summer my family and I are planning to go to the London Olympics, so I will be able to see her running in the Olympic Marathon! I am super duper excited.
I'm also just going to throw out there that I have an obsession with Harry Potter. It isn't a ridiculous obsession or anything I have just read every book like 5 times and seen every movie about a trillion times.
This is a picture of me before the HP7 Part 2 premiere...yes I am a little strange, don't judge;)
I feel like I have so much more to say about myself, but I everything else will just have to reveal itself through my blog posts!
Hope you enjoy the blog!
