About me

Location Pittsburgh, PA - Pennsylvania, United States
Introduction I lost 100 lbs between 2002-04 following the Atkins program. After discovering triathlon I gave it up, thinking that endurance athletes had to eat carbs to survive. Now, almost 10 years later, there is a growing body of evidence to the contrary that has peaked my curiosity. This blog is to document my n=1 experiment with a high-fat ketogenic diet and endurance sports. I love the way I feel when eating low carb, but can I make it through more than 10k of swimming or a full ironman? We shall see.
