Age: 30

Reason for becoming vegan:

Athletic performance. Most think I continue to improve as an athlete at a fast rate in spite of being vegan — that's not the case. A highly alkaline, easily digestible, mostly raw diet is without a doubt the best diet for performance. Then of course there are all the other reasons; environmental, ethical, political. Those can't be ignored once you start to learn more.

Favorite thing about being vegan?

Better athletic performance. Nutritionally, therefore physically, of course that's clear, but also mentally. Just knowing that I'm not contributing to so many things that I dislike makes living easier.

Favorite foods to eat?

Apples, hemp, chlorella, spinach, mangos.

Brief training history?

Started running in 1989, cycling in 1990 and swimming in 1992.

Brief contest result history?

2003 Canadian 50km Ultra Marathon Champion 2002 8th Ironman Utah 2001 3rd in Canadian Long course triathlon Championship 2001 11th Ironman Canada 1999 3

I wish Vega was the same formula that you created I miss it dearly and haven’t found anything that is like what it was. The pea protein makes my stomach sick and that’s alll it is now. It’s so disappointing. Can you help?
