All meals will be provided for the weekend! We will be using all local produce and whole foods to provide the most wholesome nutrition possible. For those interested in plant based eating, we will be doing a unique focus on those options throughout the weekend. All meals will be prepared in a demonstration setting by Lauren, our Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, for you to learn the preparation and cooking techniques if interested.
Our fall 2022 RYHO retreat will be one of the best yet to come! We'll be planning this retreat about the Blue Ridge Relay. This is a 208 mile relay along the Blue Ridge Parkway, from Grayson Highlands to Asheville, NC. We'll have a team of 12 female runners who will have three segments a piece, totaling around 16 miles per person. As you run along the parkway, the rest of the team will be cheering you along from the support vans! This will be an unbelieve experience, making lasting memories and friendships as you push yourself along the miles.
Our retreat house is located at the north end of the line. It's a beautiful mountain cabin with a cozy fireplace, mountain styled bedrooms, and additional space for outdoor camping for those adventure lovers and those on a budget! We'll be feeding you all the delicious and nutrition meals and snacks, at the house and along the road during the relay. You'll just need to pack your running gear and go get'em attitude!
