Athlete of the Month

Kayce Clodfelter

Say "hi" to Kayce!

You know her by her smile, laugh and infectious positive attitude. She joined the team last year, and when she is around you, she has something positive and uplifting to say. She has been doing triathlon for one year, and in that year, completed NC 70.3. Kayce is inspired by Ian and Owen Layton. They are twin brothers. Ian has Cerebral Palsy and together we run races with Ainsley’s Angels of America. She says that getting those brick workouts are key when training for a triathlon. Great advice Kayce!

If you see Kayce, be sure to congratulate her on being our AOM!

TURTLE RIDES ARE BACK

WHAT IS A TURTLE RIDE? This is a group ride for beginners or anyone that prefers a slower pace than most of the other local rides. Typically we ride 10-12 mph or at the pace of the slowest riders. We customize the length to participants. Faster riders are encouraged to go ahead at a faster pace.

Our next ride is Wednesday, 9/2 at 6:30 PM. We meet in the parking area near Spencer Love Tennis Courts. I will be in a small gray Toyota Tacoma.

Please RSVP on the Facebook post, if you plan to join us.

This is a social distance ride. So we won't be riding within 6 feet of each other or drafting.

RECIPE OF THE MONTH

From Chef Keith Gardiner

Asian Chicken Wraps: Serves 4

Sauce

1/3 cup creamy peanut butter

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons honey

1 tablespoon Sriracha

1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

Filling

2 Marinated grilled chicken breast (use a small amount of sauce from above as marinate)

1 tablespoon sesame oil

2 cups broccoli slaw

8 oz pkg shelled edamame

1/2 cup shredded carrots

1/2 cup finely chopped green onions

1/4 cup chopped dry roasted salted peanuts

2T Chopped fresh cilantro

4 whole wheat tortillas

Method:

1. Combine sauce ingredients together and keep at room temp.

2. Coat chicken with a small amount of sauce from above, let marinate at room temp for 1 hour, then sauté to 165. Do not cross contaminate sauce with raw chicken, only take a small amount out as marinate and keep the other separate to sauce the wraps.

3. In the same sauté pan add the remaining vegetables and give a quick stir fry for a couple of minutes.

4. Assemble the wraps and serve immediately. These are excellent, hot, room temp or even cold later….
