Chocolate Chia Seed Protein Balls

It’s the most wonderful time of the year… No, no, not Christmas – it’s marathon training time. Yippee! Well, not always maybe. There are a lot of miles to cover and sometimes it seems like not enough legs to run them on. That said, every cloud has a silver lining and these Chocolate Chia Seed…
