The Broncos have taken a lot of the pressure off their young quarter

Sarah Piampiano used to be a chain-smoking, hard-partying workaholic in charge of mergers and acquisitions at HSBC. But after a bet with a friend led to her first triathlon in 2009 and then the realization that she could be good at the sport, she left it all behind to become a professional triathlete. Now Piampiano is a multiple Ironman champion and one of the top Americans racing at the Ironman World Championships on Saturday.These days, she monitors her diet religiously to make sure shes getting enough nutrients to recover from her 40-hour training weeks. She has also had to deal with the fact that she has Hashimotos disease, which means her immune system essentially attacks her thyroid.While I knew I had Hashimotos [when I was working at HSBC], I didnt care enough to take the necessary steps from a diet standpoint, she said.She regularly skipped breakfast, snacked at her desk and ate out more often than not. Now she eats a strict, gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free diet to help manage the disease, and she cooks nearly every meal at home. Early in the season, she splurges on one pint of dairy-, gluten- and soy-free ice cream per week, but she cuts that out as she prepares for big races. The rest of the time, its healthy and filling meals such as this one she shared with us.Day and time: This is a key lunch for me after a big morning training session. I typically eat it two or three times per week.Place: At home in San Rafael, CaliforniaWhat Im eating: A baked sweet potato with coconut oil, three or four eggs over easy, topped with spinach, guacamole and salsaWhose recipe: My own!Why Im eating it: I love sweet potatoes. I love eggs. I love all things coconut. I pretty much put avocado in some form and salsa on top of everything. Combining it all makes this salty, sweet deliciousness with a little kick.Its also a perfect lunch for refueling. The sweet potato is full of antioxidants, as well as carbs to replace glycogen levels after intense intervals. The eggs have plenty of protein for recovery, and the coconut oil and avocado provide healthy fat.The recipe:Ingredients: 1 sweet potato 3-4 organic eggs 2 tablespoons guacamole (or 1/2 an avocado) 1-2 cups of spinach Salsa Coconut oil (could use olive oil instead)Preheat oven to 400 degrees. With a fork or knife, pierce the sweet potato skin around the potato to create holes for steam to escape. Bake for 45 minutes or until tender.Remove sweet potato from oven, cut down the center and put 1-2 tablespoons of coconut oil on the potato. Set aside, and let cool 4-5 minutes.In a large, nonstick pan, heat coconut oil. Crack 3-4 organic eggs into the pan. Add salt and pepper to taste.In a small pan, lightly sauté 1-2 cups of spinach until just wilted. Remove eggs from the pan and place over the potato. Put the sautéed spinach on top, and top off with avocado (or guacamole) and salsa. Enjoy! Danny Bautista Jersey .S. hockey team after paying his dues as an NHL general manager for more than three decades and giving up a lot of his free time to help USA Hockey. Joshua Rojas Jersey . It was hard for Luck to pull off another comeback, or even get into the end zone, while standing on the sideline. Rivers threw a 22-yard touchdown pass to rookie Keenan Allen and Nick Novak kicked four field goals to give the Chargers a 19-9 victory against the Colts on Monday night. https://www.cheapdiamondbacksjerseys.us/ . All of the scoring came in the final 20:04. Lucic scored on a power play at 15:46 of the third period, when he tipped a shot over Stars goalie Kari Lehtonen for a 3-1 lead. Kevin Cron Jersey . Irving scored 23 points, Tristan Thompson had 20 points and 10 rebounds and the Cavaliers beat the Denver Nuggets 117-109 on Friday night. Lyle Overbay Jersey . They had already blown a double-digit lead, fans were hitting the exits, and a long seven-game road trip waited at the end. CINCINNATI -- AJ McCarron will be watching from the sideline this time -- at least, thats what the Bengals hope -- when Von Miller and company go after the quarterback.Denver, too, will have a different signal caller from the one who led it to a pivotal win over the Bengals last Dec. 28.In most other ways, their rematch on Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium feels familiar. The Bengals (1-1) and Broncos (2-0) are doing the same things on offense and defense.They were so closely matched in December that the game went to overtime, with Denver pulling out a 20-17 win when McCarron -- filling in for the injured Andy Dalton -- fumbled a snap in overtime.That victory clinched a playoff spot for Denver, which went on to win the Super Bowl.It cost the Bengals a chance for a first-round bye, and they wound up hosting and losing to Pittsburgh at home -- their fifth straight year with a first-round flameout.The rematch could turn on the two biggest changes.Dalton is back after recovering from a broken right thumb that sidelined him for the last four games. He leads the NFL with 732 yards after two games -- a product partly of Cincinnatis inability to run effectively -- and has settled in after his breakout 2015 season.Its just a different team when Andys out there, Miller said. He has full hold of the offense. Hes able to make all the throws. Hes able to run the ball. Hes been there six years and when Andys in there, its just a different team. Theyve got No. 14 back this year and their passing is looking explosive.Theres a new face on the other side, too. Brock Osweiler led the Broncos comeback in Denver last December and was later replaced by Peyton Manning, who retired after winning the Super Bowl.Trevor Siemian has won his first two starts -- both in Denver -- and now gets his first start on the road. Siemian has completed 68 percent of his passes with one touchdown and three interceptions for a below-average passer rating of 74.4.His biggest problems have come when the Broncos are close to the goal line and everything is magnified.I think were doing some good things and were really, really close, Siemian said. Were knocking on the door to being a special grroup, finishing those drives.ddddddddddddWeve had a good bit of success, which is encouraging and Im excited to be a part of it.Some things to watch on Sunday:AGGIES HEAD-TO-HEAD: Bengals right tackle Cedric Ogbuehi makes his third NFL start. Hell be trying to block Miller, a former Texas A&M teammate who was the Super Bowl MVP and had three sacks last Sunday in a win over Indianapolis.I love him to death, and I feel like hes kind of the little brother, Miller said. I taught him everything I know pass-rush wise. I coached him up.ON THE RUN: The Broncos have taken a lot of the pressure off their young quarterback by running the ball very well. C.J. Anderson leads the NFL with seven runs of at least 10 yards. The Broncos are averaging 141 yards and 4.7 yards per carry, among the best in the league. And theyre going against a defense that has allowed the most yards rushing in the league.GOING NOWHERE: By contrast, Cincinnati has gotten next to nothing out of its run game. Jeremy Hill and Giovani Bernard have combined for a total of 95 yards in the first two games. Cincinnati ranks second-to-last in the league in rushing, with its longest run only 12 yards.Its a point of emphasis, Dalton said. Were not running the ball how we want to.FAST START: The Bengals opened that game in Denver last season with touchdown drives of 80 and 90 yards. McCarron went 9 of 12 for 84 yards with a touchdown and two scrambles for 22 yards during the drives, which lasted 15 and 13 plays. Nobody else did that against the NFLs top-ranked defense all season. Dalton will be looking to get ahead at the outset again.FINALLY HOME: The Bengals opened the season with consecutive road games for the fourth time in franchise history. They were only 6-3 at Paul Brown Stadium last season, losing a Monday night game against Houston and two games against the Steelers, including the 18-16 playoff meltdown.---AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Stapleton in Englewood, Colorado, contributed to this report.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
