About the Author

Alyssa Leib

I’m Alyssa, a trail runner and sports dietitian based in Golden, Colorado. By winter, I log about 15-20 miles per week while mixing in cross-training on (fat and skinny) skis. By summer, I’m taking advantage of all that Colorado has to offer, logging 30-50 miles per week, chasing mountain views and steep vert. For ramblings about running, photos of my border collies, and my favorite nutrition tips for runners, follow me on Instagram @alyssaoutside_rd or reach out to me at www.peaktopeaknutrition.com
