We all enjoyed another great evening in Park City! All of my clinic participants ROCKED at learning new skills or honing their current ones. It is so rewarding to watch the light switch turned on in someone's head and then watch them execute it on the bike. We worked on a few vision skills in the driveway then went to the school to work on cornering and curbs. Then it was up to Trailside Bike Park to bring it all together. A storm was working it's way closer to the bike park and we made it back to the house just before the rain fell.
Dallas, the co-author of "It Starts With Food" and co-founder of Whole9life gave another amazing presentation. Each time I hear him talk I become more inspired to eat a clean and paleo diet for the rest of my life. It makes sense for everyone, and especially for athletes, to eat a diet rich in vegetables, fruits and clean proteins. There simply isn't room for sugar, gluten or any of the other inflammatory foods in our diets. I'm not saying it's easy to cut those foods out, but the more I learn about them, I realize they aren't helping me become a better athlete in any way.
Amy from Knight's Kitchen, outdid herself again. She served the most delicious paleo meal I've ever eaten. Ever. Seriously. If I could eat this well everyday, I'd be the healthiest athlete on the planet. She served kale chips, asparagus, sweet potatoes, prociutto wrapped peaches, carrot ginger soup, salad with oranges, avocados and pecans, salmon, mixed nuts and coconut chocolate bark. There was not a lick of food left on anyones plate, I dare say that everyone loved it (even the vegetarian!).
Again for this clinic, each participant got their Stan's NoTubes sealant, injector, core remover and socks or a shirt. They also got a Tulbag from Backcountry Research, elete Electrolytes, and they chose which color of ESI grips they wanted! Additionally, they got discount codes for product from ALL of my sponsors! Lastly, I bribed them all to write a review of my clinic with a Kuhl hat or visor! Look for those reviews on the clinic tab next week!
