Chris' take
I used to think I had a solid command of fueling considerations as a lifelong (endurance) athlete and coach until I met Becca. She has an uncanny knowledge of nutrition that she seamlessly blends with her rich experience as a competitive athlete, mom, and professional who holistically approaches every athlete. Whenever I have a nutrition-related question or need to have an athlete consult a dietician, Becca is my go-to, and she always delivers. It's not by accident that I've been teaching continuing education courses with her over the past few years.
