My Day In Chicago // Media Training

By

I started my day in Chicago with a nice lake-side run! This isn’t the first time I have run along Lake Michigan — when I was in Chicago for a visit in 2009 I ran in frigid temps early in the morning. And then I did another (much-warmer) run during the Healthy Living Summit in 2010! Yesterday’s run was about 3.5 miles and it was beautiful!

Afterwards, I popped into Whole Foods for coffee and a smoothie because it was right next to my hotel. This smoothie was kale, coconut, almond butter, dates, and cinnamon, and it rocked!!

After showering and packing up, I headed over to the Zeno Group office for my workday in this skyscraper!

Their office was super swanky, modern, and cool. And just look at the view!!

When Swanson Health Products asked me to come on board as their media spokeswoman, I knew I would be doing some interviews on healthy living and introducing their new line of probiotics, similar to the media tour I did with Quaker last year in NYC. But what I didn’t quite realize was that I’m going to be doing interviews on LIVE TV next week. Eeeekkkk!! In preparation for this, they flew me to Chicago to do a day of media training. I am so glad I was able to do this to prepare because I can’t imagine going into it without the rehearsals and recordings we did throughout the day. Please send me good vibes for next week!

For our lunch break, we had Mediterranean food from Roti. Wraps, salad, pitas, hummus, sauces. It was a great spread!

The rest of my day went like this:

1 hour + ride to the airport + 1 hour at the airport + 1.5 hour flight + 40 minutes racing across Philly airport + 1 hour flight to Cville + 20 minutes to wait on the bag they made me check on full flight + 20 minute ride home + shower. Exhausting!

Mazen and I are making pancakes together <3 And I am unpacking and re-packing for another short overnight trip later this afternoon! When it rains, it pours, but in a good way!

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
