I'm Elyse. I’ve spent 10 years inspiring athletes to eat more butter*
*And other healthy fats 😉
My life goal is to teach women that healthy eating doesn’t have to be mind-consuming and stressful. My three New York Times Bestselling books co-authored with Shalane Flanagan have inspired a real food movement in the running community. We wrote the first fitness cookbooks to not preach weight loss, calorie counts, or measuring macros. As a busy, working mom with a big appetite, I know how challenging it can be to keep yourself and your family fueled with wholesome food.

The single greatest thing you can do for longevity in your sport (and life!) is to cook more.
