Meeting Tonight & Smoothie Ideas

Come to the Endure It Club Meeting tonight at Willowbrook at 7:00 p.m.  Coach Sara Fix will be speaking about training, recovering and doing it all over again.  There will also be a USANA Representative to speak about the benefits of supplementation for endurance athletes and free chair massages (first come first serve).  We hope to see you there!


 Smoothie Ideas

As athletes it's of the utmost importance that we fuel our bodies well before, during and after training.  One of the best ways to do this (especially for the time crunched athletes that we are) is to make a quick smoothie which we can grab quickly and take with us where ever we might need to go.  We have to send out a special thanks to Dan "Birdseed" Dzuibski for forwarding on these awesome concoction ideas!
