Olympians criticize village food as 'not great' — except for this one dish they can't get enough of

Simple Recipes / Molly Adams

Olympic fever has recently taken hold of our house. My seven-year-old is fascinated by every event and dresses exclusively in red white and blue every day to make sure everyone at camp knows he’s USA. His infectious spirit reminded me of a recipe I fell in love with years ago by Shalane Flanagan and Elyse Kopecky: Superhero Muffins. The recipe is from the book Run Fast. Eat Slow: Nourishing Recipes for Athletes: A Cookbook.

The two authors know a thing or two about running and nutrition. Flanagan is a decorated distance runner. Her impressive running career has earned her a silver medal in four Olympic appearances and a first-place finish at the 2017 NYC Marathon. Kopecky is a marathon runner trail runner nutrition coach and talented recipe developer. The dynamic duo has written two more books full of nutritious recipes geared toward athletes: Run Fast. Cook Fast. and Rise & Run.
