Hi, I'm Ashley!
and this is my blog about food, fitness and all things related (and possibly unrelated). I live in Bloomington, Indiana with my husband Wil- we were recently married in October of 2011.
Wil and I both enjoy cooking, going out to eat and working out- each are a part of our daily lives. We are blessed to live in a town that is full of restaurants, stores and markets that offer locally grown and sustained produce and meat along with other delicious dishes. If you're in the area, make sure to check out the BIRA website before visiting- most of our favorite restaurants are listed!
Meet my husband, Wil!
Wil owns a fitness facility here in town called Force Fitness and Performance. Wil was a collegiate Track and Field athlete at Indiana University and likes to Olympic Lift (he was a national champion). His facility focuses on athlete training, personal training, bootcamps and includes the use of kettlebells, TRX suspension trainers, Olympic Lifting techniques, medicine balls and more. This is where I do my strength training and bootcamp workouts, but I also enjoy hot yoga, running, swimming, cycling and pretty much any other outdoor activity.
I graduated from Hawaii Pacific University in 2007 with a degree in Public Relations and currently work in marketing at a medical device company. I'm also the co-owner of a wedding planning and design business in Bloomington called The Bird & The Bee Wedding Planning and Design.
So, you might be wondering where the name "Fitness is Delicious" came from. I enjoy fitness. I enjoy things that are delicious. Plain and simple, fitness is delicious to me and so is great food.
The goal of my blog is to share. To share fitness, workout and training tips, recipes and food I have tried, products I love (and hate) and other sport and food related subjects.
Some fun facts about me are that I am the oldest of four, I am a three-time National Champion in Cheerleading, I love lululemon although I only own a hoodie, workout bag and a scarf, my favorite activity is running outside, my favorite sweet treat to snack on at work is dark chocolate with sea salt and my favorite place to be is near the beach.
I hope you enjoy reading my blog and please leave a comment- I'd love to hear from you!
