Ciarla Fitness Trainer,
Stephanie Pezzullo, runner for the American Distance
Project, headed by coach Scott Simmons, has recently qualified to
compete in the 2010 National Track and Field Championships on June
24th in Des Moines Iowa.
http://www.usatf.org/events/2010/USAOutdoorTFChampionships/
On May 16th, she ran in the NC A&T
aggie classic, winning the 3k steeplechase with a time of 10:09. The
time was a significant improvement from the 10:22 she ran 2 weeks
earlier in the Payton Jordan Invitational at Stanford University. It
also serves as a qualifying “A” standard mark for the USA Track and
Field National Championships, securing her a spot in the meet and
giving her a current top 15 ranking among college, elite and
professional runners.
Stephanie will also head out to Nashville,
Tennessee on June 5th to attempt to run a qualifying mark
in the 1500m race. She will compete among a field of high caliber
professional runners, giving her the chance to beat her personal
record of 4 minutes and 21 seconds.
From Your Clients and All the
Staff at Ciarla Fitness, Congratulations Pezz!!

Healthy Food Selections
It’s all about portion control and selecting the right foods!
- Women today are eating 22 percent more calories than they
were 30 years ago - 335 more calories each and every day.
- Fast food take-outs and family restaurants were found by
researchers at New York University to have 195 percent to 700
percent larger portions than what is recommended by the USDA (US
Department of Agriculture).
Researchers found the biggest increase in:
- Steak - 224% larger
- Muffins - 333 % larger
- Pasta - 480% larger
- Cookies – 700% larger
Multiple Choice Food Selections
Olive Oil or Fat Free Salad Dressing? Olive Oil! A recent Harvard
Study found that women using oil-based dressing’s five or more
times a week had a 50 percent lower risk of fatal hearth attacks
than women who rarely use them.
Nutra Sweet or Sugar? Nutra Sweet! One can of regular soda
has about ten teaspoons of sugar, which contributes enormously to
weight gain and dental cavities!
Butter or Margarine? Neither! Put almond butter or peanut
butter on your toast and use olive oil for cooking!
Dark Chocolate or Milk Chocolate? Dark! A study in the
Journal of American Medical Association reports that antioxidants
called flavonoids in dark chocolate dilate arteries, increasing the
amount of blood able to flow through them and contributing to lower
blood pressure.
The worst of the worst – Cheese Fries with Ranch dressing!
The average restaurant serving contains 3000 calories and 91 grams
of saturated and trans fats – YIKES!
The best ice cream selection - EDY's Grand Light!
