Who’s looking to run a beautiful, scenic marathon with a super awesome race director?!? Who’s also curious about the nutrition side of running?!

Let me know and I can help!

A registered dietitian (RD) is a licensed medical professional that can work alongside physicians, physical therapists, strength and conditioning coaches, athletic trainers, and coaches. A sport’s dietitian will consider your unique needs by diving into health history, food preferences, dietary needs and your specific training goals so you can perform optimally. Whether your goal is an ultra-marathon, BQ, achieving another PR, or to simply finish your first race, a sports RD can help! Meet Errin, our favorite sports RD J. She is a local South Dakota runner that is on a mission to debunk nutrition myths and help runners fuel their body correctly. Here are a few of the key points she can help with:

Pre/Post race fueling
Runner’s gut (GI upset)
Fueling strategies
Hydration strategies
Tailored nutrition programs to training programs and schedules
Chronic disease management through nutrition
Weight management

“If you are struggling with poor nutrition and want to improve your overall health I highly recommend Errin! She helped me immensely during the height of COVID. Errin has ran Sundance to Spearfish and knows what your body needs for those 26.2 miles! Start now with her, so when race day comes you are a fine tuned machine!” Mike Albin

Love this! It’s easy to get caught up in our busy lifestyle but I encourage anyone and everyone to volunteer your time with Feeding South Dakota! You can sign up individually or get a group/company together and help fight hunger during these tough times.

Feeding South Dakota has continued to see an increase in food security needs across the state. One volunteer shows up 4 days a week after retiring as a teacher and seeing food security issues firsthand.

Instagram saw it first!This homemade tomato soup hit the spot for a chilly, snowy Sunday.

Ingredients:
7 large tomatoes
1 white onion
5 tsp of minced garlic
Drizzle of EVOO
2 Tbsp of balsamic vinegar
1 carton of vegetable broth
1 tsp of dried oregano
1/4 cup of milk or milk alternative (I used unsweetened coconut milk)
1 cup of fresh basil
1 Tbsp salt
1 tsp of pepper

Directions:
Cut tomatoes into quarters and sprinkle chopped garlic and sea salt. Roast in the oven at 425 for 45 minutes roughly. Then, sauté the diced onion and add the balsamic vinegar. Add vegetable broth and milk and let simmer. Once the tomatoes are done roasting, transfer to a blender and blend with fresh basil. Transfer the blended tomatoes to the stock and lightly mix together. Garnish with chopped, fresh basil.

Fun fact: grilled cheese sandwiches have always been one of my favs since I was a kid. 😂 A little tip when making grilled cheese, lightly sprinkle garlic powder on top of the butter before placing on the pan. If you want to take it to the next level X2, double up with Gouda cheese 🤤

Hi everyone! Welcome to Errin's Eats! I'm so glad you're here. I am a registered dietitian working at Physio Performance in Rapid City, SD. I have a wide variety of clients including athletes of all ages, patients struggling with weight loss, and individuals seeking medical nutrition therapy. When I'm not working at Physio, I am teaching several different college courses at Black Hills State University.

I created this page as an outlet that you can turn to for reliable nutrition related information. Nutrition isn't always glamorous but it is SCIENCE. I've seen a lot of false information circulating out there that is not backed by science and instead only promotes diet culture and the diet industry. Nutrition is extremely individualized and your nutritional needs are not the same as the person next to you. There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to your specific nutrition needs.

I will be sharing plenty of recipes, healthy eating tips, and other nutrition related information. Feel free to DM me with any questions you have! Hope you enjoy!

-Errin :)
