Namrita O´Dea

You are what you eat

Namrita has an academic degree in chemistry and nutritional science. Initially she took up work in a software company, which turned out to simply be way too boring for her! In 2006 she decided to combine her knowledge of healthy nutrition with her interest in endurance sports and chose to pursue a new career.

She founded 55nine Performance working with triathletes, runners and bikers to help them accomplish their sporting goals with perfectly tailored nutrition plans and training schedules. To prove her concept she took part in eight endurance races in 2008, finishing seven of them within the top three! Food for thought.
