Why we love Turkey Frank Corn Dogs Recipe

Turkey Frank Corn Dogs are a healthy, yet still yummy, alternative to corn dogs! Your kids will never know the healthy little secret to them. :) I remember playing in the back yard at my grandma's house... being completely enveloped in the game we (the cousins and I) were all playing. Then all of the sudden grandma would yell, "Time for Lunch!" and we would all come running! Grandma always made the best lunches and those memories will forever be embedded in me. Turkey Frank Corn Dogs will help create wonderful childhood memories for your children with this scrumptious summer time lunch!

Fit Friday with Nichole!

 The sun is shining and the weather is gorgeous. During this time of year the trails start calling my name early in the morning. I hope that you can hear those trails calling for you too. For some that can be a bit daunting if the trails aren't familiar. So this week I am talking trail running for beginners. 

Some important side notes, you don't have to run the WHOLE time to call it trail running. Walk/hike the uphills! I promise it isn't cheating and you can still feel accomplished at the end.

Yes, there are some crazy trail runners out there that can go for miles. There are some that seek out the ultras and run through the dark. There  are others that keep their eyes on the peaks and bag a a new one each week. And yes, there are some that go out and find a trail along the benches and to enjoy an easy three miles. All of these people are trail runners, don't feel like you aren't just because you don't go to the extreme. 

Even if you are keeping it simple I would recommend looking into good trail shoes first and foremost. They make the trail so much more enjoyable.

Trail shoes; Trail shoes are designed to grip softer surfaces than road shoes, which is especially important when trail running in the rain. Manufacturers often use a stickier rubber for the outsole. Since this rubber is softer than the blown rubber used for road runners, it’s vulnerable to abrasion on the pavement. Trail runners won’t hold up as long if you wear them on the road. On the other hand, road runners don’t provide enough traction in rough terrain. But trail running shoes often have deep, wide lugs that give them better grip on multiple surfaces.
