Hi.! I have just come across this discussion and was excited.! I too am an athlete, have competed in triathlon for years and recently started getting into adventure racing - completed my first 24hr race a few weeks ago. Glad to see there's people out there like me, who understand that a raw/vegan diet doesn't restrict capabilities/abilities out there in the sporting world. -- on that note.. does anyone know of a good nutritionist who deals with vegan athletes.? i have been having trouble locating one here in perth..noon.
