\u201cI love your no-pressure, non-sanctimonious approach. I\u2019m finding so much amazing useful content on NMA, I can\u2019t even begin to tell you how much you are helping me.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n-Maureen O\u2019Donnell<\/strong><\/p>\n\u201cI had no idea where to start my vegetarian journey, and your site has been so incredibly helpful. Being an endurance athlete, fueling and eating properly are so important not only to my overall health, but to my athletic performance as well, and I have learned so much from you site already in the two short months that I\u2019ve been reading. Thanks for all your help!\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n-Courtney, Neenah, WI<\/strong><\/p>\n\u201cYour website is an IMMENSE source of assurance and hardcore info. It truly helped ease any fear and doubt as to being able to first, get all the nutrients I needed as a vegan and athlete.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n-Ricky Ferdon, Georgetown, SC<\/strong><\/p>\n\u201cI had been seriously debating giving up vegetarianism because I thought and felt that it was detrimental to my training. How wrong I was! No Meat Athlete\u2019s advice and practical information educated me on not only how to be a better healthier vegetarian but also a better, faster athlete, runner, triathlete. I am now considering going not only pro but also vegan with Matt\u2019s help.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n-Chris, Sewanee, TN<\/strong><\/p>\n\u201cYour insight into training meat-free has been a true inspiration. I was vegetarian for 10 years and then became a meat-eater to train because I thought it was the only way. Boy was I wrong. I\u2019m so happy to know that I can train, run, be healthy and still be a vegetarian. THANK YOU for being my cyber coach in all of this!\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n-Jess, Burbank, CA<\/strong><\/p>\n\u201cI came across your blog shortly after making the decision to go veg and can\u2019t even begin to tell you what an awesome resource it\u2019s been for me. I look forward to every email and can\u2019t wait to get your Half Marathon Roadmap! I don\u2019t consider myself a runner, but hey \u2014 until recently I didn\u2019t think I could be a vegetarian either and now it\u2019s been 5 months and I feel better than ever.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n-Nicole, Chattanooga, TN<\/strong><\/p>\n\u201cI have been plagued by running injuries for years, but last Sunday I ran my first marathon in 3:44 and it felt great! No Meat Athlete was my number one source of information during my training, and I couldn\u2019t have done it without your information on nutrition, form, gear, training, and motivation.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n-Cait, Worcester, MA<\/strong><\/p>\nmeet the team<\/h1>\n<\/span><\/div>
