Still hurts. Where's the love? I just came back from a 12 miler which was supposed to be a 15. IT band just gave out. What a flaming drag.

I've been following 80/10/10 for about 4 weeks now. My energy levels improved immediately but it wasn't till the second week that my running and recovery between runs greatly improved. I run twice a day during the weekdays and average 80+ miles per week. I also noticed that the average pace on my runs were steadily improving. Looking forward to continuing with 80/10/10 and racing in 2009. Good luck to everyone!

I've been raw for 14 months......previous meat eater and detested running.....now 90% raw and running 5K daily...and up to 10 miles!....really want to run a marathon in the next 12 months. Particularly interested in raw food relative to recovery.......this looks like a great group!

Running wild and Ann Gunn can one of you explain 80/10/10 for me? Not sure what that is. I am 90% raw and am looking to become a hard core runner

When you do 100% raw 80-10-10 how do you get enough iron to keep your iron levels up? I'm vegan and mostly raw but I have trouble with keeping my iron levels up. Any advice? Also it seems like it would be hard to get enough protein on the 80-10-10 for a runner. Has any runner or athlete been on it for many years with good results?

Hey Tony, you should check out Tim VanOrden - he's not 811 but his diet is high in fruit. There's a very cool interview with him on Welikeitraw:

His website is: http://runningraw.com/ and his YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/runningraw

But perhaps you know of him already :)

Hi everyone. I have sugar metabolism issues and have tried 80/10/10. It doesn't suit me. The energy is great, but I feel spaced out, and my eyesight goes blurry. I should be eating Low GI due to a medical condition (which hopefully will be sorted out the longer I'm raw), yet when I run on Low GI I seem to hit a wall early on. I'm fine though when I've pushed through it. Any ideas?!

Hi everyone - I am a elite cyclist and wanna be marathoner who has just begun "going raw". I have lived a pretty much vegan life style for a few years so food wise no so much of a tansition. what I am curious about is energy levels and getting enough pre-event and post even carbs? I am already 14-15% bf so as you can immagine I am doing this for health reasons other then weight lose...thanks
