Calories in can equal A LOT of time running

90-10-rule

Do you contributed to the30 million pounds of snacks consumed watching summer baseball games, Super Bowl, or Championship games?  Research by the Calorie Control Council and Snack Food Association estimates that Americans on the average may consume 1200 calories from snacking alone, calories from meals are additional!  In workout time – that is between 2-5 hours in the saddle or lacing up your shoes and going for a 2-2.5 hour run, depending on intensity and personal needs.  Practice the 90/10 rule – make healthy choices 90% of the time, allow yourself 10% misses. This allows you to maintain healthy habits and be realistic.  To stay the course, remove the indulgent snacks from the pantry to keep them from arm’s reach, and plan ahead.
