Friday 5/29 Weighing in: Nutrition, body image, and finding balance as a female athlete https://cyclingtips.com/2018/04/weighing-in-nutrition-body-image-and-finding-balance-as-a-female-athlete/ As a Mom of Girls I have seen two healthy girls with healthy outlooks on body image struggle with body image occasionally. I also struggled with this as an athlete in High School and College. I kept a food diary and exercise log. Both excellent ways to tune into your wellness.  This is good on Balance. Food is Fuel. I never weighed myself during high school and tried to maintain a diet very similar to before I became a serious cyclist. I stayed pretty healthy, but as I continued to make progress in my cycling career, I knew I wasn’t optimizing my diet for what I was asking my body to do. Becoming more engaged with my nutrition was initially driven by a desire to train harder. As my training load steadily increased, my diet hadn’t changed dramatically. I was still eating simil...

Corona Virus and the shift in Education from the classroom to the Homefront

Hi, Looking for ways to transition learning to Home? I have comprised list of all the educational offerings showing up in my mailbox over the past weeks as our educational systems have ground to a halt and each person collectively has reorganized their lives to accommodate for the shift from normal to a new normal. Change is inevitable. We weren't prepared for this. How do I start to educate my kids when I am also reorganizing my life? This is something we are all trying to be resilient through. I am consistently awed by the way people are coming together to help each other right now. I have been waiting for my moment to contribute. Today I am starting this blog to bring what I know to the table, share, and ask you to share your triumphs along the way. I will load content that I come across that applies to anyone wishing to use these readily available tools online. I will organize them here, along with activities and places to view, engage, or otherwise educate yours...

Design Competition and wishes for sustainability by Starbucks, McDonalds and others.  steps in the direction of back to the 70's and Wax paper cups would benefit our Planet Dixie Cups still do the trick, or ceramic and high heat dishwashers make sense. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/sustainable-alternatives-to-plastic-bags_n_5a732a7de4b0bf6e6e225ee0 “We prominently display them in the store, and we have cashiers offer them,” McLaughlin says. “We had a 42% increase in sales of reusable bags last year, which is great on one hand, but how much are people using them? Have they really solved the problem? I’m not sure.” She also points out that all of these reusable totes come with their own problematic lifecycle—a reusable plastic bag needs to be used 37 times to match the footprint of a disposable plastic bag, and a cotton bag needs to be used anywhere from 100 to more than 1,000 times, depending on the study you cite.
