Veg Out 563: Interview with a Vegan Ironman Athlete

When you think of one of the most gruelling tests of endurance and fitness, the ironman triathlon is definitely one of them. On this episode, we talk with Todd Crandell about his incredible journey towards becoming a vegan endurance athlete, having completed over 100 of these events thus far. We chat about the positive impacts of veganism on his races as well as his nonprofit foundation, Racing for Recovery, which supports individuals recovering from substance abuse by promoting a lifestyle of health, fitness, and sobriety. We also discuss his recent book about veganism called Do No Harm: Discovering the truth and the power behind a compassionate lifestyle. Join us as we explore the inspiration behind the book and the significance of sharing such an important message with its readers.
