Learn the importance of proper hydration and balanced nutrition for training and on the trail. Learn what role nutrition plays in recovery, and discover HOW to eat rather than WHAT to eat. If you wonder what to do about protein on a multi-day trip, when protein powders and shakes work or when whole foods are preferred, and what balance of carbs, protein, and fat is optimal for your unique needs for sustenance, join us. 

This seminar is designed for any pack-carrying athletes wanting guidance on nutrition choices to improve their health and well-being on and off the trail, but all are welcome.

Check out the Schurmans' other offering, Feel Good On & Off The Trail on 3/5. 

Meet at 6:30 p.m. at Seattle Program Center. 1.5 hours of classroom, 30 minutes of Questions and Answers.
