Raw Training Blog

I passed the fire agility test! Proving to myself I can get stronger and faster on a 100% raw diet, even in the first 2 weeks.

I had a sub 7 minute time even taking it a little easy so there would be no mistakes.

The below is from yesterday. I ended up working until after 9PM so no training, and lame eating.

FOOD:
vitamineral greens
3 apples
10 leaves italian kale
2 young coconuts
mixed greens with avocado, vinegar
huge super salad from Proper Eats (nuts, seaweed, greens, you name it)
raw carrot cake (ouch)
sprouted crackers and hummus

TRAINING:
None

Fantastic, thank you! When I found out I thought "Now I wish I had a million MySpace friends"

I guess a few friends who have a million MySpace friends is even better!
