I have been a type 1 diabetic since 2015 and celiac since 2018, and even though I have had my struggles with it, I still strive to live a healthy life. Senior at Utah State University studying Health Science. Hoping to go into pharmaceuticals and focus on diabetic supplies and medicine, because I am quite passionate about helping those that have the same medical condition as I do. Favorite Blogs: |

| AM- 5.5 miles on the tready. So I have a bit of an update on my anemia/low iron. I just talked to my endocrinologist (type 1 diabetes doctor) yesterday, and she has a possible answer to my low iron and a way that I will be able to increase it. It turns out that I am gluten intolerant right. Even though I have been taking iron supplements for quite some time now, they are never going to help, because my gut needs to heal itself and the only way to do this is by consuming zero gluten for at least two-three months. I think that this has been a problem for me for quite some time now, because I have not felt like the same runner since the Las Vegas Marathon in 2018 when I ran 2:55. My running performance has slowly dwindled down to almost nothing, and it has been quite frustrating to not be able to feel like my normal self. Honestly, I am quite surprised that I have been able to run the marathons and others races in the last year, because of my hemoglobin being so low. Eating gluten free is not the easiest thing to do, because it is in so many different foods (anything that contains wheat, barley, rye, etc), but I am going to give it my best effort, because running and staying healthy mean a lot to me. Boston is only two months away, so I need to make sure that I can make improvements on my iron-deficiency anemia before then. Training will probably have its ups and downs for the next couple of months, but I am hoping I can make some good progress. Sorry for the long post, but with type 1 diabetes and gluten intolerance, I just needed to vent a bit. Anyways wish me luck!

| AM- 8.5 miles from Aggie, looping up to Maesar 7-11 then back to home. Strides and drills afterward. I have only been gluten free for a couple days, and I think that my body already is feeling better. I have mostly been eating fruits, vegetables, salads, sweet potatoes, with some certified gluten free snacks along with them. Hoping to see some improvements from inflammation and energy levels over the next few weeks.

| PM- 10k from Vernal Park. 8:02 average. Felt somewhat good today, would have been better with the cold breeze, but still glad I am trying to get back to my normal consistency of day to day running. One thing that I have noticed since I have gone gluten free over the last couple days, is that I am frequently much hungrier than when I wasn't gluten free.

| AM- Another 10k. 7:55 average. I have been gluten free for almost a week, and I think that I can already tell that I am feeling better. Stopping on some of my runs, for even just 10-15 seconds at a time, helps me to get a re-boost. The low iron might take some time, but progress will come for sure!
