Fuelling the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race

My latest adventure is a vicarious one as I’m currently engaged as nutrition advisor to the Edinburgh Inspiring Capital yacht crew. As we speak the crew are taking part in the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race 2011-2012 which kicked off yesterday (31 July 2011).

My role is to give advice and practical suggestions about which foods should be part of the ration supply. Organising the food for a crew of 18 hungry people as they work hard to keep their yacht ahead in the race takes a lot of planning.

I’ll be keeping up with the crew as they sail and will keep you updated on their progress. In the meantime, here’s a post from the official website on the start of the race.
