Rise and grind y'all. I'm up early today. All you go-getters are going to love this post. Last Friday, my work team had a High Speed Potluck. It was an idea that Heather Maxham-Burke came up with. A few weeks ago, she sent an email out to our team introducing the idea:
“Bring in your favorite healthy dish and we can all sample and recipe swap. Now it doesn’t have to be over the top healthy, since we know most things are fine in moderation.”
It was as simple as that and turned out to be a huge success. Here’s a picture of the end result.....

Here's the team and what they contributed to the above photo:
Todd – Baby spinach salads w/ mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, parmesan cheese, shredded taco cheese, and turkey pepperoni. Choice of dressing was either (a) olive oil and seasoned rice vinegar or (b) fresh lime juice.
Katy – Strawberries, apples, pineapple, grapes, and a low fat yogurt dip
Sarah – Mojito Lime Grilled Chicken
Renee – Shrimp, Roasted Cauliflower
Heather Max – Fresh drinks from her juicer (aka Juicies). The three different flavors included (#1) apple + pear + cherries (#2) mango + strawberries + blueberries, and finally (#3) kale + green apple + green grapes + cucumber.
Heath – Carrots, whole wheat pita bread, hummus
Jen M. – Cucumbers and tomatoes (grown from her own garden) in a light balsamic vinaigrette (not pictured)

Our team is going to shoot for a High Speed Potluck every 3rd Friday or so. All you go-getters, forward this post out to your team/workplace/friends/family/etc and have a HS Potluck of your own. Then take a picture and send it to me at tbowen@highspeedhealth.com. If my high speed decision committee approves (Max and Katy), I’ll post it on a future blog.
HSH Athletes of the Week
This week’s awards go to Heather Maxham-Burke (pictured on the left) and Katy Graham (center). “Max” had the HS Potluck idea and Katy was a huge facilitator. They also provide occasional fashion advice to their single guy friend when he’s in a bind (yours truly).
