Meet Anna: check out her Vegan Runner Meal Plan
"My overall strategy is to incorporate at least one serving of carbs, proteins, and fats into each of my meals. I also add in various fruits and veggies to ensure I hit all my nutritional needs throughout the day. Below is an example of what I eat in a typical day."Vegan Runner Meal Plan
