About Mary
Hi there! I’m originally from Ireland but settled in beautiful Colorado for the past decade. With over 25 years in healthcare, starting as a nurse and evolving through various roles in healthcare corporations. My passion in sports and wellness inspired me to earn an MSc in Sports & Exercise Nutrition.​
​
I’ve completed numerous Ironmans, triathlons, marathons, ultras, and bike rides worldwide. My experiences, driven by my training and race nutrition plans, sparked my curiosity about how nutrition, hydration, and race environment preparation impact performance.
Through trial and error, I learned the importance of nutrition knowledge and preparation. My goal is to help others achieve their goals. Combining my sports experience with my education, I offer practical advice on fueling before, during, and after training and racing.
