Vegans

How do vegetarians compete? How do they manage to get enough protein in their diets?

I don't know the answer about competing and have wondered this myself...I know you can get protein through lots of non-meat sources but when I think about how clean a prep diet is I couldn't imagine getting protein in without the help of at least egg whites!

I believe Spice Williams is a vegan. I don't know if she was already a vegan when she competed in the 80's before she got into tv and movies.

I'm not a vegan but there are some good Vegan protein supplements. Sequel makes a great line called Vega which has a plant based all natural organic wheat free, gluten free and dairy free protein powder. Brendan Brazier formulated it and he is a Vegan and ironman triathlete.
