This summer I had the opportunity to meet Barb Downey. She is a really amazing lady, and it didn't hurt that she has a beautiful ranch in the Flint Hills of Kansas. She is a mother, rancher, business woman, agvocate and marathon runner. I am pretty sure that one day the first four nouns can be used to describe me, but I am not so sure on the fifth.
Barb used to be obese, and had major health problems, but you would never know from looking at her today. What went from taking walks to running a power pole length at a time, has turned into running full fledge marathons, the Boston Marathon to be exact. And to power her she uses to fuel her - beef. No better lean protein in my opinion.
Last night the third I am Angus show that I have worked on aired on RFD-TV. I have many favorite episodes but wanted to share Barb's story with you first. I love her line about how people are relieved to find out that beef is a healthy option, not something that has to be enjoyed as a treat every now and then.
We need more people out there telling the story of beef like Barb is.
