Nice article on a raw foodist, vegan athlete

On Pace: Can vegan diet fuel an athlete? He says yes
Opinion by Jennifer Duffy

Arizona Daily Star
Tucson, Arizona | Published: 05.16.2006

What did you eat yesterday? Bradley Saul, a former pro-cyclist and founder of Organic Athlete, stopped in Tucson last week to talk about his organization and told me what he had munched on that day: half of a case of strawberries, two heads of lettuce chopped into a salad, some oranges and about 50 small dates.

The tall and lean but strong-looking cyclist is a vegan, and a raw foodist. He promotes organic living for athletes to ensure personal and environmental health. (Being a raw foodist who eats only whole foods, he doesn't touch things like whole wheat bread or tofu, but will eat some brown rice in a pinch, he says.)

3. "Saul's minimalism is inspiring"
This is a mind boggling concept. I have only heard of this once or twice before, but it is an astounding and intriguing idea. If one trained in this concept you would survive under incredible odds and duress.

Amazing article. Thanks.
This is what I was mulling over this week.
