Tell us about yourself.

Hey guys, yes, I am training currently as a USA Bobsled Developing Pilot for women’s Bobsled. The sport chose me after a pretty successful track and field Career at the University of Oregon.

I have always been a goal setter and the dreams of being an Olympian or professional athlete is something I have always strived for. I am the daughter of Brian and Sherry D’Arpino and sister to Kerissa and Cory D’Arpino, and I am just a small-town girl, with big-time dreams.

When and why did you become interested in a healthy lifestyle?

My health has always been a priority. Proper nutrition helps me perform better in my daily life, as well as in sports.

Besides running and Bobsled training, what is your favorite fitness activity?

I would say my favorite past time fitness activities are lifting weights of course, but also, I love hiking and swimming!

What is your go-to healthy meal?

A go-to healthy meal for me would be chicken and rice, with a salad. But I also love making smoothie bowls! I top them with all sorts of delicious toppings and they are full of different nutrients.

What E3Live superfoods do you take and how/when/for what?

I take BrainON and Blue Majik, as well as E3 Total Body Blend.

What is the difference in your overall athletic performance since you started incorporating E3Live superfoods? What did you notice first/overall and the most?

I have noticed improvement in my focus, as well as energy. I enjoy that feeling and that started right away. Overall, it has become a habit to take E3 superfoods and I feel odd without it.
