Chix Rule

This past weekend I attended the Luna Chix Summit in Mill Valley, Calif. I met some amazing women who were doing extraordinary things, ran with some great athletes (special thanks to Nancy Williams, who not only provided the photo, but was nice enough to run with the pokey from Florida who was not used to California’s “rolling hills”) and got to taste some of Luna’s newest products. If you haven’t tried the Vanilla Macadamia Tea Cakes or Blueberry Moons, you are missing out on some tasty fuel.

But I think what struck me most about the Luna Chix Summit is how deceptively young all of the women looked. I would be sitting in on a clinic, thinking I was surrounded by 20-somethings, and a woman would stand up and announce she was turning 40 this year.

Is it the lifestyle? These women are runners and cyclists who appreciate the outdoors as much as anyone I’ve met. Is it the exercise? Wherever I went, I would see a Luna Chix ambassador returning from a run, heading out for a bike or finishing a swim. Or is it the camaraderie that keeps them young? Each group had such a special bond and were so supportive of each other, I actually felt a little jealous that I didn’t have my own group of Luna Chix to return to. Whatever it was, these ladies were full of life and energy, and none of them looked like they would slow down any time soon.

So what keeps you feeling young? Is it exercise? Friends? Family? I’d love to hear your secrets to eternal youth. And thanks again to the Luna Chix for a wonderful weekend.
