Other Athlete Zoners

Zone Products Used in Training: Zone Bars, Zone Shakes, EicoPro.

Benefits Seen With Zone: Stabilized blood sugar that helps me keep up more consistent / high endurance output without energy swings. I'm on my bike for hours and hours every day, and it's tough to train hard and consistently when you load up on high carb / high glycemic load foods all of the time. When I'm on the Zone I feel more energy and less inflamed.

Best Athletic Accomplishment To Date: Beating my sister on a run to the top of Green Mountain (she is tough).

Favorite Thing About Training: Eating. Dr. Sears says The Zone is not a diet, it's a way of life. I'm definitely not on a diet.

Least Favorite Thing About Training: Not eating.

Biggest Challenge Overcome: My back has given me problems for years and now I have a grasp on the situation.

Competition Rituals: Depends on the day and race. Everything from reading the paper in the village to pacing the team bus getting angry.

Favorite Race: Tour de France.

Hobbies: Being lazy.

One Fact No One Knows About You: I love trucks.

If You Weren't An Athlete, You would Be: A truck driver.

Average Day Consists Of: Eating, riding and sleeping.

Favorite Charity: American Liver Foundation (www.liverfoundation.org)

Favorite Zone Food / Flavor: EicoPro Fish Oil. I love shakes and bars, but Zone Labs EicoPro is awesome.
