Life after 60 – Adventure

Courtney Benefiel Drinks Blu Frog & Ribbits

by on Dec.06, 2009, under Good Causes

I think this video speaks for itself. Blu Frog is a tasty and healthy energy drink. Tested and tasted by Courtney Benefiel. She is one of the most energetic people I have ever met. If one could bottle Courtney, they would be a billionare! We got to  know each other face to face this year at in Orlando at Izeafest which was one of the wildest and craziest conferences I have ever attened. Can’t wait for next year. I first made contact with Courtney, who is RideToRemedy, while wandering about Twitter.

Courtney is a strong competitor in the bicycle field. Lance Armstrong better look out. Her web site Ride to Remedy is chalk full of info about racing. It is also about breaking the chains of diabetes, which she has. Courtney describes her mission on her website like this, “A year ago (May 2006), I decided that I was going to take care of my diabetes because I wanted to go skydiving and couldn’t do so without proper care of this hideous disease. With that goal obtained, my next goal was getting on the insulin pump, I had to show that I was capable of 7-10 blood checks a day, that I was going to watch my carb intake, that I was going to take insulin when I was supposed to (I have a history of not doing so). Being on the insulin pump gave me the power to be athletic and with that power I set out to prove that I have control.

When I completed my first ride in Southern, CA I was immediately craving my next ride. I had proven my point; I could control my diabetes and within that control, be athletic. What I spent the better part of 15 years missing out on, I wanted others not to miss. There’s no reason why diabetes should restrict anyone at anytime and while controlling it is an answer, it isn’t the answer. And that is why I ride and want to ride. I ride to find the cure, the answer to diabetes.” There is a ton of information about diabetes on her website.

We got together when I visited her home town and I brought her a six pack of Blu Frog. It’s healthy energy drink with no artificial sweenters or sugar other than that provided by the fruit.

    To build credibility simply be proof of your own hype and give people value over and over again. Help others to achieve what they want to, and you become credible in their eyes.

    I discovered your website through google, i was browsing and ended up here, i love what i read, you got skill. For that I can treasure you much more then you could think.

    I’m not an expert at many things.I don’t know about politics,I’m no medic, I have no clue about animals, in fact there are many things that i do not know about…BUT..I’m an expert at cooking, I’m a chef and my business is to make customers feel like in heaven whenever they eat what i cook. Maybe a wedding or a birthday party or whatever and whenever the reason might be. So how hard can be at times to make people feel better at times. That’s why i like you!

    There is also something that i enjoy, people blogs that educate other people on diffrent topics.
    You’re great! Thank You!

    hi excellent little web-site ya have here 🙂 I use the matching theme on my own blog although for whatever nutty issue it appears to stream quicker on this blog despite the fact that this site provides a little more material. Are you currently operating any sort of plug ins or widgets that will quicken it up? If you might be able to show the widgets so maybe I could use them in my resource site so twilight breaking dawn supporters could watch twilight eclipse online trailers and clips more rapidly I’d personally be ever so grateful – regards in advance 🙂

    im in general jumping about the online world most of the morning hence I possess a tendency to browse substantially, which is not typically a good factor as nearly all of the internet sites I see are composed of pointless rubbish copied from similar web pages a million times, however I gotta say this website is honestly half decent and boasts a lot of original information, so thanks for breaking up the fad of simply just copying other individual’s blogs and forums, if you ever want to play a few hands of myspace poker together just shout out – you have my email 🙂

    Hey, Great blog you have here. I wanted to let you all know that I think Twitter is going to be one of the stronger networks because of the fact that it is supported by so many industries. I also think when Twitter introduces some of it’s new functions, returning traffic will increase to show the real growth of the network.

    Anyway, I created a blog that offers great resources for Twitter that are 100% free, so come and visit and don’t be a stranger.

    Keep up the good work!

    Hi – I want to say thanks for an interesting site about a subject I have had an interest in for a while now. I have been lurking and reading the comments avidly so just wanted to express my gratitude for providing me with some very good reading material. I look forward to more, and taking a more active part in the discussions here, whilst picking up some knowledge too!!

  • Judi Melen

    I was so full of giggles that night 🙂 It was great to see you. Thanks for bringing me some Blu Frog, the flavor is growing on me 🙂

    • MarDeck

      You must be the giggliest person I know. It was fun and I can’t wait to come back to Abluquerque to give you the giggles once again. That is unless Izeafest comes first!!

    • MarDeck

      This is still one of my favorite videos when I need a good chuckle. You were a super sport. Hope all is well with you.
