Vegan Triathlete Blog I just decided to become a triathlete. It's going to be a little while before my first triathlon (and hopefully a very long time until my last one), and I plan on blogging about it the whole time. Check out the blog that I just launched today: http://vegantriathlete.info What do you think? Are you going to read it? I've also added some forums to bring the triathlon community together. Check them out too: http://forums.vegantriathlete.info P.S. I'm a vegan, that's the reason for the domain name.

Except, triathletes jump onto their bikes /after/ splashing around in the pool. Riding a bike in a wet Speedo can't be good for the nether regions. Might as well just sit on a big block of ice, and summon the guy with the Barron Ligator, to take care of the aftermath. > A swim in a > nice cool body of H2O can be mighty refreshing. But yeah, abandoning a > perfectly good bike to run seems sketchy to me. The triathlon format is all in the wrong order. It should be: run, ride, and (maybe) swim. And the running part, I find dubious. And, as Fabrizio has mentioned: triathlon kit is fugly. cheers, Tom -- Nothing is safe from me. Above address is just a spam midden.

You're 20 years old, you live with your brother-in-law and his wife and daughter, he's a swimming coach but has no swimming suit although he is thinking about buying one? No, I am not going to read any more of your blog. Ted.

It must be compicated getting enough nutrition especially protein. Do not listen to this obviously vegan hating bunch. I got shot down immediately for suggesting anything so senseless as olympians on veggie diets.

There have been plenty of athletes of all sorts who were vegan. There are even vegan bodybuilders. I suppose one can get enough protein without eating meat or dairy, but that's a LOT of soy.
