Subject: RE: Any Vegetarian or Vegan triathletes? There is a great book - and also a website "No Meat Athlete": http://www.nomeatathlete.com/
This guy is a runner (I believe he is ultra-runner ), he did plenty of research, has a lot of resources, and interesting articles, tips, advices, podcasts, etc.
My diet is about 90% vegetarian (I eat chicken when I cook for my kids and I cannot resist well prepared hamburgers and anything on grill... ). I agree on the calories intake. I was concerned about it, so I signed up for the My Fitness pal to kind of track what I was eating and to make sure I am getting enough calories (I tried in excel, but it was too much work to search for all the nutrition information, and the myfitnesspal has all the database ). I use it as a tool and just to have an idea.
