This my blood glucose graph from the day of my Rim to Rim hike in the Grand Canyon, 9/25/24. I worked really hard, hiking for over 16 hours. I followed my fueling and hydration plans very closely until the final push climbing up the North Kaibab Trail (6 pm to 9:45 pm). This was the point where my blood glucose dropped to ~ 60 mg/dl and where my pace dropped off enough that I needed my husband to pause and wait for me to catch up, several times. Why did I wear a continuous glucose biosensor ()? Because:
1) I am a curious dietitian nutritionist,
2) I am an athlete that loves eating carbs, 3) I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes earlier this year for first time, and 4) I have so many friends and clients dealing with blood sugar that is creeping higher with age! 😕 If you are in the pre-diabetes/abnormal blood sugar club, I can help. Comment the word Help or send me a DM and we can chat more.

Shakori 40 is happening this weekend! Had such a good run with our team out in the woods last year but can't make it this time. Sending lots of strong running energy to my many friends who are embracing their trail running "roots!" Try not to fall, my friends: Leah, Shana, Brenda, Laurie and Marylou and have fun!

Fun little study out of App State on eating almonds as a recovery food. Yes, it was funded by the Almond industry but the findings are legit. Now, let me go grab an ounce of almonds😊

New study finds eating almonds promotes muscle recovery and reduces fatigue from exercise
