One of my favorite ways to spend a Sunday afternoon is going to the farmer's market, loading up the basket, and then dreaming up healthy and tasty recipes for my athletes based on the ingredients I pick up. It can be a challenge trying to find new and exciting ways to grill chicken or prepare a salad, but when you try things you've never used before, every dish is a treat.

In the summer, everyone wants light, refreshing meals. As endurance athletes, we want to make sure our bodies are getting the nutrients they need to repair, rebuild, and recover. This month's edition of my monthly grocery list is all about things you'll find at the market in July and August.
