Vegan and vegetarian diets are getting a lot of buzz, but does a plant-based diet support runners in achieving new personal bests or will it hinder performance? Certified Health Coach and 10-time marathoner Lauren Shafer will review the potential benefits and pitfalls of adapting a vegan diet, including a discussion of supplements and an answer to that often heard question, "Where will you get your protein?"
There will also be a Q&A period after the talk so come prepared with any additional questions you have about running on plants!
