What have been a few highlights in your personal athletic journey? What role has community played in your running experience (and in life)? Are you part of any training groups? As an R.D., what are your favorite parts about your job? Any biggest challenges? Where do you see room to improve when it comes to our relationship with food as runners/athletes? RED-Sin sport and ultra-endurance nutrition is a major topic these days. Are there any common patternsyou see among people struggling with RED-S -- and best ways to address it? Do you have any tips for someone who is trying to improve their relationship with food and body as an athlete? What does life look like outside of career/running for you (family, career, hobbies, etc.)? What advice would you give to your younger self? What does being a Strong Runner Chick mean to you?
