About Charlotte MacNaughton

Title: Orienteering Athlete

I’m an outdoor endurance sport junkie. My favourite sport is orienteering where I love the physical and mental challenge of navigating as I’m running through the forest. I also love trail running and cross-country skiing. I’m a late blooming athlete and didn’t get serious about fitness until my mid 30s. Since then I’ve been a member of the Canadian Orienteering Team and competed at three World Championships.

Being fit and eating well are so empowering. It’s taken me to my forties to truly understand that I am what I eat. I like Vega products because of the great feeling of knowing that I am putting natural plant-based, whole foods into my body. The recipes in the Thrive Diet are a staple in my food repertoire. I travel frequently and I take Vega products with me so that I don’t compromise my nutrition when I’m on the road.

Orienteering is a sport that requires both fitness and unwavering mental focus, and great nutrition goes a long way to help me in competition. During multi-day races Vega products are ideal recovery foods so that I can get going again the next day, and the next day and the next day…
