MrBeast Burger Review

I decided to break plant-based protocol for the first time in a long time to try MrBeast Burger, a virtual dining experience crafted by the famous philanthropist himself, MrBeast.

Anyone Can Run – My First Marathon Experience (Pt. 2: Race Day)

Picking up where we left off during our previous installment, it’s time we jump directly into the actual race day experience of my first race, the 2016 Walt Disney World Marathon!

Recipe: Instant Pot/Pressure Cooker Chili

As a Texan I love chili-but I also VEHEMENTLY believe if chili has beans in it it isn’t chili…but I don’t know what else to call this dish so there you go. Perfect for appetizers, a quick and easy dinner, a topping for Fritos (you really should bake your Frito pie but we can save

Recipe: Easy skillet ground turkey/lean taco meat

Taco meat is something I prepare almost weekly here at the TwitchGym-it’s pretty healthy (since I use lean or extra lean ground meat and only a single packet of seasoning/sauce), relatively inexpensive can be consumed with tortillas, bread, by itself or just a big pile of veggies.

Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon/Marathon Packing List

A few weeks ago I flew to New Orleans for the Rock ‘n’ Roll Half Marathon and I’ll be flying to some additional races this year. Many runners I’ve spoken to struggle with packing for destination races you have to fly to, which I understand. On top of ensuring you’ve everything you need for race
