Ultrarunning Race Partnership with Bush Babes & Bro's Trail Running Clinic
We have exciting news to share, and you may have heard about this on social media first! Please welcome Dawna Jodoin, who has joined us as Nomad Nutrition's athlete and ambassador!
About Dawna
With 20+ years of experience in ultra running and trail running, Dawna is also a certified trainer and running coach with the Bush Babes and Bro's Trail Running Clinics in Vernon, British Columbia.
The Health Scare
The health scare was unexpected and was nothing like she had experienced before. Since then, it was a wake-up call to no longer compromise with the gluten options available at races, especially as an athlete with celiac disease.
Search for Quality Nutrition and Finding Nomad
"This had me searching, I couldn't do another large event without proper GF nutrition."
Four months after the health scare in Europe, Dawna was prepared to take on the next challenge, a 100 mile self-supported race in Patagonia mountain ranges of Argentina. This time, Dawna packed and brought along Nomad Nutrition for her race.
"Not only did your food fuel my body, I felt great and finished the event [as the] 4th woman, felt great, no sickness, no autoimmune flare up."
How amazing is that?
