Unbroken Podcast 008: Mekenzie Riley

Sorry for the sound quality of this episode. I know it was bad. I had the privilege to drive to Peoria, IL to meet Mekenzie Riley at CrossFit 309 and hangout and talk fitness. I met Mekenzie a year ago at a competition hosted in Ozark, Missouri called Ozark Mountain Shredfest, and she was awesome. She added me as a friend on Facebook and offered to help me with my quest to lose weight. We have stayed friends ever since. Mekenzie is a lifestyle coach and registered dietitian. She has her own business as well, Real Results Nutrition Consulting. Not only does she talk the talk, but she walks the walk. She is an amazing CrossFit athlete and competes with the best. She placed 3rd in her district in the last CrossFit Games Open. We talk about how she started CrossFit and how it helped her change the way she approached her own nutrition. Now, she wants to share that knowledge with others. Her team has some big plans for this next Games season. We talk training and what it is like to work together as a team. Episode was first released Dec 2015. Since the recording, she has been back to the games two times. Once again with a team and then 2017 as an individual.
