What they say
Carl Lewis: "My best year of track competition was the first year I ate a
vegan diet. Moreover, by continuing to eat a vegan diet, my weight
is under control, I like the way I look...I enjoy eating more, and I
feel great."
[1]
Sally Eastall: "Since becoming vegan my running has improved considerably. Vegan
food is ideal - high carbohydrate, low fat and plenty of vitamins
and iron. I'm proud that I run without exploiting animals in any
way."[2]
