Can I be vegan if I'm a distance runner?


Question:
I would like to be vegan for health as well as ethical reasons, but I run quite a bit, probably around 35-40 miles a week. Will I be able to run this much if I become a vegan? Will my performance decline? Any other athletes have experiences with experimenting with veganism?

Answers:
You can definitely do it! Make sure you get a lot of protein - I love eating chick patties or tofu, and maybe go to see a nutritionist. You have to be careful that you're getting all the right nutrients, but it's possible.

Vegans are stupid. Animals were put on earth for food.
