In a world that believes being Vegan means not getting all the nutrients one needs to be healthy, I’m here to prove the opposite. A Vegan diet not only can allow for optimal health, but it also can allow for optimal workouts at the most intense athletic level. If you are active regularly, training for a race, triathalon or competition; or if you just plain love working out, living Vegan can work for you too!

The start of an experiment
We'll call this day 1. The start of my first month Vegan. I'm setting out to explore a few misconceptions people have about being Vegan and achieving optimal health and fitness levels. Now, already you may be asking yourself, "how do YOU qualify to tell me that someone can be Vegan and also be a healthy well rounded athlete?". I don't. In fact I don't even qualify a little bit. I'm just a girl who LOVES working out and trying new activities, I've been a vegetarian only three years, and I've never tried a Vegan diet before. This just so happens to make me the perfect experiment - together we can learn tips and tricks for Vegan athletes, learn from the professionals and discover the benefits of a full on Vegan lifestyle. Let the games begin.
