Picky Bars, the bar company founded by professional runners Jesse Thomas, Lauren Fleshman, and Steph Bruce, entered a collaboration with chef, speaker, nutrition coach and bestselling author Elyse Kopecky.
Kopecky, an avid trail runner herself, brings a wealth of experience as a graduate of the Natural Gourmet Institute, and as New York Times Bestselling author of Run Fast, Eat Slow.
Together they will create more “Picky Foods” made for athletes from real-ingredients.
“I knew Elyse from my early Nike days, almost ten years ago,” said Lauren Fleshman, co-founder, Picky Bars. “When Elyse moved to Bend we got to catch up. Hearing her passion for changing the culture around nourishment for athletes, I knew she’d be a great fit for us.”
Picky Bars’ partnership with Kopecky is the first step in expanding their product line outside of the real food energy bars they’ve become known for.
