Peter K and Serafina Restaurant Group show YOU how to eat like a marathon champion with their MARATHON WEEK MENU.

Want the energy of a marathoner whether you are running the race or not? Who doesn’t want more energy in this time of multitasking and trying to be and do everything at once? The great news is we can all get more energy very quickly and easily. HOW?

I recently designed a Marathon menu with Serafina Restaurant Group in NYC and wanted to share some great energy tips with you. Listen to the The Peter K Show to hear all about how to get more energy, strength and endurance.

Let’s start with where energy comes from. Keeping it simple, energy comes from what we eat and drink. PERIOD. Forget claims from questionable sources that energy comes from “magic pills”. The nutrients from the foods we eat and what we drink provide us with the energy to fuel our daily lives - and right on through a marathon!
Here is a list of the foods you should include in your diet for sustained energy and overall HEALTH:

COMPLEX CARBS:

• Whole wheat breads, pasta and other whole grain products (oats, rye, etc)
• Brown rice
• Sweet and white potatoes
• Starchy vegetables (legumes and root vegetables)

WHOLE FRUITS AND VEGETABLES:

• Green leafy (lettuces, spinach, kale)
• Brightly colored veggies (red/yellow/green peppers, tomatoes)
• Fiber rich fruits of all colors (apples, oranges, pineapple)

Here’s a sample of an energizing menu:

Breakfast: Oatmeal or whole grain cereal with skim milk or soy milk and fresh fruit. Another option would be a whole grain bagel or English muffin with all natural fruit preserves

Lunch: Serafina whole wheat pasta with organic vegetables. Whole wheat is a healthier pasta choice with more fiber that will help slow the release of sugar to your bloodstream. With choice of:
Grilled organic chicken breast paillard, served w lentils, spinach and sweet potatoes or steamed vegetable platter

Dinner: Serafina whole wheat pasta with organic vegetables. Grilled Filet mignon (4 oz.) served w extra virgin olive oil mashed sweet potatoes

For a snack and before training choose an apple, banana or kiwi

Hello all Blogtalkradio hosts and soon to be hosts. We are all here to share something with the world. What we have to say is important to us and we want to get our message to as many people as possible. One way to do that is to be the type of host who consecutively delivers what the listeners want.

Now I know that on Blogtalkradio that could be anything. What I want to share with you are 5 keys that will help you deliver that great show full of energy, effectiveness and focus. Join me and Blogtalkradio CEO Alan Levy tonight at 8pm on The Peter K Show. Join the conversation and let us know what you think makes for a great show.

I remember not too long ago sitting with Blogtalkradio’s creator Alan Levy as he started to tell us about his new venture. His eyes widened and his voice became passionate. I knew at that moment I must become part of anything this man gets so passionate about.
6 Months later I started my own show, excited, apprehensive (ok scared). It’s been the most exciting 6 months of my career.

I am proud to say that I am Blogtalkradio’s Fitness Expert. My name is Peter K and I have been fortunate enough to share with all of you the world that Alan created.

Every once in a while you experience something in life that makes you sit back and smile. That happened to me several months when I accidentally met (nothing happens by accident by the way) a man and quite casually asked him to be a guest on my show. He agreed, impressed, and last month it happened. That man was John St Augustine, executive producer of Oprah and Friends Radio.

That’s the power of Blogtalkradio my friends! You can be sure when I am a guest on Dr Mehmet Oz’s show (Oprah’s new sweetheart) soon I will invite him to experience Blogtalkradio for himself.

As for me, I am looking forward to sharing great and fun tips on eating, exercising and mind/body success with all of you. Want to be a guest on my show? Need a guest for your show. Lets connect and have some fun.
