before I was going to step foot into the summit conference room I needed one thing – Dunkin Donuts iced coffee. This is one of the things I miss a lot of about Maryland, I am still obsessed!

Then, I got breakfast – oatmeal topped with the sweetest berries I’ve had in a while and granola. I also put some brown sugar in it because I’m on holiday that’s why.
plus a lot more fruit –
After breakfast the keynote speaker spoke and then we broke off into groups for the sessions.
For my first session I chose Fueling for fitness – I loved this! considering that I’m training for a marathon it is incredibly crucial and relevant to my life ideal now. It was presented by Rebecca (Elite Nutrition) and Heather (Dietician on the Run).
They broke down carbohydrates, protein and fats and the value of each in your diet.
Carbohydrates are the “Energy Nutrient”. They have 4 calories per gram, which indicates 15 grams of carbs equal about 60 calories.
Protein is the “Body tissue Nutrient” and also have 4 calories per gram.
Fats were called the “Energy Reserve Nutrient”. They have 9 calories per gram of fat.
One of the crucial things to remember is the goal as an athlete. In the past my primary goal was weight loss. now that I am training for a race that is not the case. This presentation provided what must be the goals for athletes trying to fuel well:
Energy for workout
Prevent dehydration
Optimizing recovery
Prevent injury
Ultimately lots of aspects influence what we eat, including
1. frequency of exercise
2. intensity of work outs
3. Duration
And then you can use your taste preference to make food choices that work for you ?
After that presentation it was time for lunch! The spread was beautiful Camiseta Vissel Kobe and of course all the food bloggers went to town on taking pictures.
I got a little bit of everything – salad, chickpea salad, quinoa, fruit and a tofu sandwich (it was “build your own”).
I loved that they had tofu for the sandwiches! It was good tofu too ? I recently was talking about how I like sandwiches, Camiseta Selección de fútbol de Irán but the lack of vegetarian options make me reach for something else.
If I had this tofu on hand I’d happily eat a sandwich everyday!
dessert – We also dung into dessert. I didn’t take a pic, so imagine it was this cheesecake bar ?
