Recipe
We're trying a new thing here at Athlete Food. Laurel, Melissa and I are all taking a few hours on Sundays to be our own personal chefs. We're cooking a bunch of food in one day that can be used on those busy days when cooking takes a back seat to a fussy newborn or a 4 hour brick workout.

Athlete Food: Baked Apples

Bec
Breakfast, Recipe, Snack

Most of my bike routes around New Paltz involve riding through orchards. They are everywhere. And starting in September, they start to come alive with apples and out-of-town apple pickers. The extent of my picking is usually jumping off my bike mid-ride to grab an apple or a pear off the tree.

Dinner, Recipe
When I returned from my trip to Vegas and Branson last Sunday night, I was depleted. In a five day stretch, I had competed in three races, navigated five different airports and checked in and out of four hotels, all on a diet that revolved mostly** around a jar of peanut butter.

Athlete Food: Simple Tomato and Basil Salad

Bec
Dinner, Recipe, Snack

One of the best things about summer in New Paltz is that the produce is so fresh that little has to be done to turn fresh picked veggies into a meal. Take this simple tomato and basil salad, for example. All you have to do is slice a few heirloom tomatoes and toss a handful of sungold gold tomatoes and fresh basil leaves on a plate. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and you’ve got the perfect BBQ side dish.

Most pro triathletes spend the winter at training camp, putting in grueling hours of work in order to prepare for the upcoming season. Instead of spending my days trail running, going on group rides and smashing swim sets, I spent the winter recovering from a C-section and waking up at in the wee hours to feed my newborn daughter. For the first time in my career, I kicked off the racing season while easing into training—slowly and solo.
