Yourfoodanalyst for Nike - The real girl [15-Nov-11] “The Real Girl – She is what she eats!” - Currently we are working on a new project with Nike Training Club supporting a 30 year old London Girl training for her first ever half-marathon in February 2012! She has never attempted much exercise and looked much at her diet but wanted to get some inputs in the way eating could help with her performance. Some other nice side-effects may be also to help with her skin and hormonal health. We have designed a three session programme over the coming months to support her with her training goals, and so far things are going well! To read her testimonial about our session and to follow the “The Real Girl” diary on Facebook, see here.
