Volunterring in Branson at the 70.3 Iornman.



Volunteering in Branson at the 70.3 Iornman.

For those of you who don't know much about Triathlons it is were you do three sports in a row. The typical and most common is to swim, bike, and run.

The 70.3 Iornman it is  1.2 mile swim / 56 mile bike / 13.1 mile run (1/2 marathon.)
70.3 is half the distance of a Full Iornman.
A full Iornman is 2.4-mile swim/ 112-mile bike / 26.2 miles (a marathon) 140.6 total miles.

We have done sprint triathlons 400 meter swim/12 mile bike / 5K run. It might not sound like much next to Ironman but let me assure you it is hard. We were planning on doing an 70.3 Iornman this past race season but due to injuries we were not able to. Lord willing we will be doing an Iornman this up coming year 2012.

We wanted to volunteer for the one in Branson for so many reasons.
The three main reasons were we wanted to see how they were run, what to expect, and to show our support for the sport. It was such a wonderful experience and an awesome event. So many walks of life and so many different ages, sizes, colors, ethnicity, regions, and countries were represented.

Our experience volunteering was

3rd Annual NO Halloween Candy CHALLENGE



3rd Annual  NO Halloween Candy CHALLENGE



My commitment is to not eat Halloween Candy 
from today 
until 2 week after Halloween.

I will allow myself to have 2 pieces after that. 

I will have none until then.








I do this challenge because I would find myself eating candy and not even thinking about it. 
I would think it's only once little piece but it adds up and it's BAD thinking!

I have been very successful every year.  I began to challenge others. 
Most of the time I don't even eat the candy at the end of my challenge. I worked so hard not to have it.
It was more of a reward NOT to eat it at the end! 

Who's in it with me? 
What will your commitment be? Make it personal to you. 
Some people allow them self one piece of candy a week or only one kind or candy. 
Make this Challenge yours. 

Here is the calorie count for those little candies. 
Dove Milk Chocolate Promises or wrapped square

Hi Tia,
Just have a question about the amount of protein per day I should be having. Seventy seven grams is about 2.7 oz. That can't be per day? Per meal maybe? I'm confused....or may my conversion is wrong?

QUESTION:
Hi Tia,

ANSWER:

You can't look 77 grams as a weighted measurement   It is 77 grams of  protein


Example: Chicken breast, 3.5 oz has 30 grams protein

How I calculated how much protein needed:
Your weight in lbs divided by 2.2 = your weight in kilograms

take your weight in kilograms x 1 = for protein requirements

I explain how to get protein in on my blog.

How Much Protein is in Food?




How Much Protein is in Vegetables and Fruit?
