This is hands down the coldest winter we have experienced in the eleven years we have lived in Colorado. I grew up in the Region (Northwest Indiana) and spent many years in Upstate New York. Cold is certainly no stranger to me. However, that does not mean I am comfortable right now. And honestly, I would rather have the cold than the heat. BUT it does prompt me to make hot chocolate more often! Morgan is a huge fan and truth be told he would rather have Swiss Miss (gasp!) but I try to kick it up a notch. 1. Always use your fanciest mug 😁 2. We like dark chocolate, but obviously anything works 3. Use almond milk (make your own!) or any nut milk as it adds great protein for athletes 4. I always throw in one of GU’s amino acid caps and they melt right away 5.marshmallows are a must and you can easily find vegan marshmallows as well. We would make this for Tim, Krista, T$ and our sweet Kai Kai today if they were here. We love you and miss you. THE END 🙏🏼 #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #climbing #skimo #cycling #Boulder #ColoRADo #hotcocoa

This is what Morgan thought of today’s workout! Hahhaaha I am still laughing at the photo on the side of the canyon. Truth be told, the workout was pretty humbling. When we woke up this morning Morgan asked if I wanted to go to brunch. “I will go to brunch if we run there and hike back up the canyon” “Errr that sounds like a bad idea” “I think it sounds like a great idea! The way there is all down hill and the way home is just a long hike” So...that is what we did. And 1600+ feet of climbing later, we are home. Also, I suspect I will be running to brunch on my own in the future😂 #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #feedyoursoul #ultrarunning #enduranceathletes #cycling #climbing #skimo #Boulder #ColoRADo

Getting back to it, but that kill switch is still on. Honestly feeling the ick. Just down right like poop. My joints are stiff and uncomfortable. Painful. Did you know the original 21 Jumpstreet is on Prime right now?? I would much rather lay on the couch and watch that. THAT will do me no good. Dragged myself out the door for a hike because I CAN. Two weeks ago, that was not the case and I need to focus on that rather than the discomfort I feel today. Doing what is hard instead of what is easy. Just processing. #onward #letsdothis #doepicshit #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #Enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #climbing #cycling #skimo #Boulder #ColoRADo

Yahoooo! Received a most excellent “welcome to the Salty Squad” GU package this week!!! I am a fan of SO many nutrition brands and all they do. The key is finding one that works BEST for YOU. GU’s products have helped me stay upright through some pretty yucky days. Excited to stand next to Salty for as long as he’ll have me🙏🏼💙❄️ #guforit #saltyssquad2019 #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #cycling #climbing #skimo #Boulder #ColoRADo
Sometimes I still bake. Especially when I can’t do anything active. In between copious amounts of planks, pushups+situps, I made a cake. This one is for Morgan and our upcoming house guest...the one and only Billy Yang. Cake for breakfast! #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #cake #allthegluten #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #climbing #skimo #cycling #Boulder #ColoRADo

So this leg is healing well and I could not be more relieved. As I reflect back on the state of panic I was in once I lifted my pant leg up, I was more than aware of the severity of the wound AND that I was home alone on top of the mountain. Within ten minutes of falling I was able to get to the house. We keep a VERY well stocked emergency first aid kit at home. Two actually. One for humans and one for the pets. As I hobbled in the front door my pants were soaked in blood and it was still flowing. I feverishly grabbed a bag of saline and began pouring it over my leg. Our claw foot tub swirling with saline and blood. One hand texting and not so calmly trying to contact someone...anyone on my emergency list. The other hand ripping open gauze and Tegaderm. Thank you Jesus for Tegaderm and the forethought to have both it and saline on hand. Unbeknownst to me at the time, I also had pneumonia and felt terrible. Sobbing and trying to speak, I was quickly able to get a friend on the phone to get me to the ER. Big lesson here if you live and or play remotely: 1. Have an emergency contact list at your disposal. When you are in a state of panic, names don’t quickly come to mind. 2. PLEASE have a well stocked emergency first aid kit. You never know how long it will be for help. The first thing the doc said to me in the ER was “wow! This is an extraordinarily clean wound. Your flushing it out and covering so quickly was the best thing you could have done” #exhale #doepicshit #rad #radboulder #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #climbing #skimo #cycling #Boulder #ColoRADo

Starting this with a puppy photo and easing into it. The last photo is a doozy. Disclaimer: don’t look at the last photo if you aren’t into gnarly gashes. I’ve been really sick this past week. Finally feeling like I could make the 400m trek to the mailbox yesterday. Slipped on some slick snow and came down hard on a rock outcropping. Murphy’s law that Morgan is out of town. HUGE thank you to Ryan+Cat for getting me down the mountain and Suzanne for getting me back up. A zillion stitches later and a bit of Netflix in my future. The 1% of the time that I did NOT have Kahtoola’s on. Also, Great Danes are perfect for leg elevation. Well played 2019. Well played. #rad #lessonlearned #radboulder #doepicshit #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #cycling #skimo #climbing #Boulder #ColoRADo

Make a wish. Anything you want. Everything you want. Do you have it? Good. Now put it in a box and place it in your heart. Believe it can come true. You never know where the next miracle is going to come from. The next smile. The next wish come true. But if you believe that it’s right around the corner and you open your heart and mind to the possibility of it, to the certainty of it, you just might get one thing you are wishing for. The world is full of magic. You just have to believe in it. So make your wish. Do you have it? Good. Now believe it with all your heart. 💙 #rad #radboulder #feedyoursoul #doepicshit #magic #heart #believe #wish #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #cycling #climbing #skimo #running #NewYear #2019 #Boulder #ColoRADo #happynewyear #milagros

Of all the cool things we have on the books for 2019, there are a handful of people and things we have not yet solidified or connected with. Perhaps they might be xtra special important for specific reasons OR we simply have not worked with them yet and we super dig them🙏🏼 A few we just want to do something bigger with. Last night we sat down and wrote a list of a few things we did not want to miss out on. This is the start of that list💙 #herewego #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #climbing #skimo #cycling #Boulder #ColoRADo

If I had a dollar for every time someone asked “what type of diet do you follow?” I’d have a whole lot more dollars. Here’s the deal, neither Morgan or I follow a specific diet. We eat animal protein, just not very often. We might go days inadvertently following something resembling a vegan diet, but we’re not shouting veganism from the rooftops. Your diet is your own, just as the way we eat is our own. I eat slightly different than Morgan for very specific reasons. We are not the same person. The premise of RAD has always been that we are a catering company that focuses on feeding endurance athletes and meeting the needs of said athletes. This is a peek into a normal day for me. I have blood work quarterly and am low on nothing🙏🏼 Disclaimer: this is what works for me. I am me...NOT you👈🏼 #getyourmudchecked #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #cycling #skimo #climbing #Boulder #ColoRADo

“Do not let your fire go out. Do not let the hero in your soul parish” Working on staying pinned to this. Day by day, minute by minute and out of nowhere this week, I look to my side and standing next to me once again was a long lost friend. Obsession. Obsession in the process, the run, the mind. Nice to have you back. Let’s do this. #canthurtme #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #climbing #skimo #cycling #Boulder #ColoRADo

Three cheers for old school cookie cutters! A few of our most coveted possessions. These have been curated from all across the globe over the years. Each one tells it’s own story. When we make cookies for someone special, we spread out all of the cutters and strategically choose which to use. If the house was on fire, I’d surely run back in for these💙 #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #cookies #Christmascookies #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #cycling #climbing #skimo #Boulder #ColoRADo

Veggie risotto on a camp stove. Our oven at home has died. Until we pick our new oven up, we’re mixing things up a bit as far as heat sources are concerned. We also have 60+ mph winds outside right now and I would rather not stand on the deck and grill. Oh, AND a neighborhood mountain lion making frequent appearances as of late. The end result? Vegetable risotto on a camp stove inside. Add a little turmeric and lots of fresh veggies, vegetable stock and zest from this really cool zebra lemon. We’ll save the leftovers for risotto cakes tomorrow🙏🏼 #rad #radboulder #feedyoursoul #glutenfree #vegan #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #cycling #climbing #skimo #Boulder #ColoRADo

Greens greens and more greens. If you are freaking out about the lettuce scare as of late, go with the heartier winter greens available locally. Chards, arugula, kale+spinach. This salad has a couple of eggs, brussels sprouts, hummus and is dressed with tomatillo salsa and coconut yoghurt. Annnd some hot sauce from our friend Adam. Because all eggs should have hot sauce, unless you are in Europe. Then you’re just a silly American. #feedyoursoul #doepicshit #rad #radboulder #enduranceathletes #salad #ultrarunning #cycling #skimo ##Boulder #ColoRADo

And so it begins. 2019. I won’t call it a “RACE” calendar/schedule/plan. I will call it a “GOAL calendar”. Thinking outside the box and filling this instead with races, trails, routes, mountains and dreams not yet fulfilled. All centered around emotional attachment. Thanks for filling my head and heart back up Sarah Lavender Smith💙 #yougottawanna #doepicshit #rad #radboulder #feedyoursoul #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #Boulder #ColoRADo

This year we spent Thanksgiving in the Medford/Ashland, OR area visiting Morgan’s family. Super stoked to find the time to shop local and visit Rogue Valley Runners. One of our favorite things about the sport of ultra running is surely the community and family. If you were to ask folks “Who are the nicest guys in ultra running?” The list would be darn long! That’s a pretty great problem to have. We’d surely put Hal Koerner high up on that list. Thanks so much Hal for taking some time with us today on a busy Black Friday. I’ll be sleeping with that P2P race shirt under my pillow til September🙏🏼 #rad #radboulder #endurancesports #ultrarunning #Boulder #ColoRADo

Classic sugar cookies have been and will always be my favorite cookies. If you’ve ever been on a team in a kitchen with me, you undoubtedly already have this sugar cookie recipe. You might also have nightmares of making literally thousands if teeny tiny gingerbread men 1 inch by 1 inch. This recipe is pretty fantastic and super easy. Unlike most of our recipes for RAD, this one is full of fat, gluten, sugar and eggs. Feel free to substitute as you need, but whatever you do keep the zest and extracts in. They are magic🙏🏼 Big shout out to my pastry ride or die forever Amanda Reed for our decade of kitchen blood shed. #respect #feedyoursoul #rad #radboulder #doepicshit #Boulder #ColoRADo #Christmascookies #enduranceathletes #ultrarunning #skimo #cycling #climbing
