Soooo you wanna be Cabot Fit? + #TrainingBites + Giveaway!

By Kristina LaRue, RDN 24 Comments

Many of ya’ll know I’m a big Cabot cheese fan/snob and a member of the Cabot Fit Team. Catch up on my past race recaps with the Cabot Fit Team if you’ve missed them: Vermont City Marathon and Beach to Beacon 10K.

Apples and Cheese-7354

We’ll I have some fun news, we’re taking our race VIRTUAL this fall and inviting you to join us for a good cause! 35% of your registration fee is donated to Feeding America and Cabot is donating $100 to my local food bank, Second Harvest.

Here are the deets:

  • Choose your distance: 5K, 10K, half marathon, full marathon
  • Sign up to run at CabotVirtualRace.com
  • You’ll receive a finishers medal
  • First 100 runners to register will receive a Cabot Fit running shirt!
  • Post race, Cabot will select 1 lucky runner to make a $1200 donation in their name to their local food bank
  • I’m raffling a Cabot Legacy Collection Gift Box on the blog so sign up below! Winner will be selected at end of the month (Oct 31st at 12PM EST).

Eric and I are running the 10K on October 25th. We’ll be in Auburn, AL that weekend and I’m already dreaming about how amazing that morning run is going to feel. Takes me back to where it all began.

Apples and Cheese-7360

It’s time for your Tuesday’s #TrainingBites! In honor of the virtual race, I’m serving up apples and cheese. You might think, apples and cheese is a weird combo… but don’t knock it till you try it. Eating this pair together, makes me feel so Vermont. Can you believe up there they put cheese on their apple pie? #mustrythisfall

Apples and Cheese-7359

You can’t use just any cheese or any apple, you’ve gotta pair tart honey crisp or gala apples with Cabot’s Alpine cheddar. This combo will rock your world. Eric and I gobble it up, smiling ear to ear.

Alpine Cheddar and Apples

As always, many thanks to my gorgeous hand model.

So will you be Cabot Fit with me??

Disclosure: As part of the Cabot Fit Team, Cabot has taken care of my registration fee for the virtual race ($25), provide one of my lucky peeps with a Cabot Legacy Collection Gift Box and donate $100 to my local food bank. I was not compensated to write this post, all opinions expressed here are my own.

    I have never tried apples and cheese in any combination. Apples with cream cheese, possibly.

    I’ve never tried apples and cheese together, but I think I would like it, since I like both of them separately.
