Brendan is recognized as one of the world’s foremost authorities on plant-based nutrition. He is a guest lecturer at Cornell University and teaches an eCornell course called The Plant-Based Diet and Elite Athleticism.
It was really exciting meeting Brendan. He is a very humble guy for all that he has accomplished!
I was also able to meet the Vega Representative here in Utah-Tyler Hunt. Tyler did an excellent job overseeing the activity and making sure everyone had what they needed.
The group cycled to the Whole Foods Market Sugar House store to power up and meet even more riders in Salt Lake City.
The riders then met for the Wellness Seminar and Book Signing at 12pm, held at the NEW Whole Foods Market Trolley Square store- Salt Lake City. All the participants were given a Vega swag bag, at the end of the ride with samples, a water bottle & Vega T-Shirt!
The seminar was awesome! To learn more about Brendan and a plant-based diet follow his Thrive in 30-30 days to optimum health and vitality. After signing up you will receive a new message in your email every day for 30 days. I have been enjoying reading these messages.
This event was a lot of fun. I was able to hand out samples of the Vega bars, shakes and answer the bikers questions. My mountain bike is in St. George, Utah, so I wasn't able to actually ride with the bikers this time, but they looked like they had a lot of fun:)
Looks like you had fun! I would have totally joined in the fun if I wasn't preggy. :) I'm planning on ordering some Vega shakes. Morgan says they are a staple in her diet!
ReplyDeleteI love Brendan and LOVE Vega!!! So fun that you got to be a part of this!
ReplyDeleteLook at all those thin athletic people!
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie,
ReplyDeleteThis is Jessica from WholeFoodIdeas.blogspot.com.
I hope you are doing well. How exciting to get to meet Brendan Brazier. I have read his books and regularly use his Vega products. I love his recipes too. They are fantastic.
By the way, my mom made your vegan "meatballs" and spaghetti last week for me. She has been helping me out since I am in crutches due to a stress fracture in my right femur. The meal was delicious. Even my meat loving father enjoyed them, which is rare. He is usually quite skeptical when it comes to vegan food, even though he as no choice but to eat it at home because my mom will not cook animal products. I think he secretly likes vegan meals and does not want to admit how good these meals taste and how it's possible to have a delicious and nutritious meal without meat. Thanks again for the information in your blog. I need to get back on track with mine.
Take care,
Jessica
Heather, Morgan & Shen- thank you for your comments.
ReplyDeleteJessica, I loved reading your comments. It was so awesome to hear that your mom made my vegan "meatballs" and spaghetti last week and that your Dad like it too. That is really funny that he secretly likes Vegan food, but doesn't want to admit it-LOL. Love reading your blog and your recent post on Native Foods Cafe.
Hi Debbie,
ReplyDeleteLooks like everyone had a great time! I'm inspired to go buy a new bike!
