Get Fit!
One of the first things many people ask when they hear we're WFPB is where do you get your energy, protein, etc. In addition to our own endurance achievements as ultra marathoners - 100 miles in under 24 hours - I point them to these guys.

Us - John & Emma
John is a filmmaker and Emma is a pediatric nurse. In addition to our day jobs we're ultra endurance athletes, and passionate animal advocates. Our dream is to one day have a farm animal sanctuary - Peacefield. We're the oldest we've ever been (obviously) but feel the healthiest and have more energy than any other time in our lives since going WFPB. From ultra marathons to our daily workouts we're setting PR's and our recovery time has nearly disappeared - and we're always looking for the next challenge.
