Calling All Running Chefs!

Last month, I posted about a great new energy bar called 3BAR. 3BAR is the creation of Erin DeMarines a competitive triathlete, certified nutritional consultant, certified sports nutritional consultant, certified personal trainer, fitness model, and founder of E-Fit Foods, Inc. 3BAR has grown to become a leading energy bar of triathletes and people seeking a "clean, natural, low sugar, wheat and gluten free, and vegan energy bar. To check out my review of 3BAR [click here].

The recipe for 3BAR originated with a cookie recipe from Erin's grandmother. In honor of Erin and her grandmother's cookie recipe which evolved into today's 3BAR, I'm holding an all-call for your own special training recipes. I'm looking for those special dishes you have created while training. Could be a snack or a main entrée. Could be something you only eat while training or maybe it's a healthy dish you eat all year long that provides that extra fuel to sustain your active lifestyle. To get an idea of some previous recipes featured on the blog [click here].

Each recipe will be featured on the blog, so be sure to take photos of your creation as well as some photos of you and your family/friends making and/or eating the celebrated dish. Each submitter of a recipe will be entered into a contest drawing. Each recipe email will be assigned a number in the order that it's received. Those numbers will be entered at True Random Number Generator to select a winner. The winner will receive an assorted pack of 3BARS (15 bars total-a $30 value) provided by Erin and E-Fit Foods, Inc. (Thanks Erin!) and a $25 gift certificate to RoadRunnerSports.com! The winner will also be the first to have their recipe featured on the blog. All of the recipes will be featured (one a week) in the subsequent weeks.

To enter, simply send your recipe and photos (jpeg format) to runnerdudeblog@yahoo.com. Be sure to put "Recipe" in the subject line. Also, be sure to include your full name and a little bio about yourself along with your recipe. The deadline for submitting a recipe is October 3rd.

I look forward to reading and testing all the recipes!!
