Vegan Testimonial – Jerry Armstrong aka @endurancejer

Early in 2012 I started reaching out to vegan friends on twitter to ask them to share their testimonials. My hope was that by getting vegans to share their stories we could educate and inspire others and give people first hand accounts to replace perceptions or stereotypes. I’m incredibly grateful to those that have participated. Their stories speak for themselves! If you enjoy the series please let us know!

Jerry Armstong

About 10 years ago, I started training for endurance sports. I started in triathlon and road racing. And, over the years, I came to realize my passion was for the ultra-endurance version of these competitions. I completed the Ironman triathlon and, at about the same time, I started running ultramarathons.  I invested a great deal of time to my physical preparation for these races, as well as most of my discretionary income and time.  I run trail races up to 100 miles every month and I often ran a marathon before my work day.
