As a non-vegan I am interested in how he fuels his body to be able to compete at this level.
I love your curiosity! You can start here: https://www.pcrm.org/good-nutrition/nutrition-for-athletes or this: https://runningonrealfood.com/nutrition-tips-for-vegan-athletes/
Thank you. I am in the process of revising my diet and whilst probably won’t be going full vegan or even vegetarian, I do want to significantly cut down on meat and eat better.
Good for you! You're welcome to share your progress here or directly to me!
Give full vegan a try, it's not as hard as you imagine.
