Hey NMA-ers! It's Christine, back with another healthy dessert recipe! For this Sweet-Tooth Friday I made a batch of vegan black bean brownies. I'm going to cut to the chase- for me this recipe is hands-down the best STF yet! They're even better than regular brownies! If you haven't tried any of my recipes yet, [...]

I Predict…3:07:00 and Wanting to Hurl
How to Predict Your Marathon Time
During a recent track workout, which had me running several 800's at about three minutes each, the coach of the group I run with told me it was similar to a popular marathon prediction workout called Yasso 800's. I did a little research on this, as well as several other [...]
Baked Penne with Roasted Vegetables
Lotsa Giada Pasta
Wow, it's been a few weeks since this blog has seen a completely "normal" meal! But that's just what this one is—nothing sprouted or soaked, no hemp oil, nothing raw, and real, actual, pasta (not "pasta"). And extra cheese, please!
In the spirit of taking a week off from running (I get back to [...]
New Stuff
Quick extra post to let you know about two new pages I've added to my site…
Yesterday I mentioned that shirts are for sale, hence the new Shirts page where I can hawk my wares. Half the first run of shirts has sold already—thanks everyone! Not much else to say about it; check it out if [...]
Grilled Onion and Eggplant Sandwiches with Sweet Potato Fries
As much as I've been loving my Thrive meals over the past few weeks, I have no intention of eating that way every day. Cooking new stuff is just too much fun, and there's only so much you can do with vegan ingredients and low-temperature cooking. I mean come on, no meat is enough of [...]
Blisters, "Pizza," Pie, and Shirts!
A Small Leak Sinks a Great Ship
Well, I'm a little bummed out today. I'm still sidelined, not by injury, but by that frickin' blister on my foot! I figured that four days off would take care of it, but when I went for an easy three-miler yesterday to test it out, it was still bothering [...]
Thrive Diet Review
Ever since I finished reading vegan professional Ironman triathlete Brendan Brazier's Thrive two weeks ago, I've been completely inspired to transform the way I think about food. I've made the meals and smoothies from it almost every day, posting many of them on this blog (with Brendan's permission, of course). But amidst all my excitement, [...]
Frozen Banana Truffles
Hello again, and Happy Sweet-Tooth Friday! It's Christine here, back with another healthy dessert. This week I made Frozen Banana Truffles, perfect for your summertime sweet-tooth! This dessert is vegan, gluten-free, and raw!
The idea to make a banana-themed dessert this week was obvious to me. Obvious, because I had SEVEN pounds of bananas sitting on [...]
Fun with Video and Plantains
Arg! More Running Frustrations
I gave myself the day off after that miserable 18-mile run on Monday, and by the time Wednesday evening rolled around, I figured everything would be good to go for my track workout. I was right—almost. No GI distress or fatigue spells, no pain left over from the chafing (or bleeding). The [...]
Best (Homemade) Pizza Ever
Thanks for all your help (and sympathy) about my terrible run and what might be to blame for it. It's hard to tell whether it was dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, low blood sugar, or this idea about the brain getting overstressed and shutting down its signals to the muscles. Luckily, I don't really need to pinpoint [...]
Hi there, I'm Matt. I went vegetarian last March, and almost immediately I became a much stronger runner. I recently qualified for the Boston Marathon; now it's on to my first 50-miler!
