Hello! My name is Clara Peterson. I am a professional 5k and 10k runner and before that ran for Duke University where I was a five time All-American. From my picture you may notice that I am on maternity leave however. In the beginning my running career I suffered from something called Athletic Energy Deficit (AED). What this means was that I was not providing enough fuel for the amount my body was exercising and as a result I suffered some serious bone loss. Since I became educated on how to fuel my sport, I have built my bone density back and feel stronger than ever. I am here today to help other young athletes like myself become strong young women who do a good job eating for their sport so their bones done suffer the way mine did. Enjoy!
