My favorite breakfast

Due to followers asking for my nutrition I want to post what I usually eat/snack after getting up:

Mostly I just mix soymilk with juice (grapewinejuice is awesome, others work, too) and wheatgerms plus a pinch of maca.

 Gives me enough energy until ten. Then I usually eat wholegrain bread with vegan spreads and a little later I eat loads of fruits. In the winter time I buy a shitload of bloodoranges and eat these every day.
Not long ago by coincidence I have discovered this:

baby "porridge"

 It basically is babyfood. But it is organically grown, very easy to digest and therefore not bad before workouts and rich in carbohydrates and nutrient dense. I normally add agave nectar, oatflakes and wheat germs.

agave nectar

Oatflakes

wheat germs

Right before running today I had this spelt "porridge" (but it is softer then porridge) with agave nectar and a banana. I guess apples are also nice to add.


Found this interesting link for spanish and english speaking vegans that want to visit germany: vegan-tourist-guide-to-germany

Here's a link to a fellow vegan runner called Jan-Albert Veenema from the netherlands. Personal best for a marathon under 3 hours!

Starting the week

After the saturday and sunday runs/cycling I didn't do much on monday but 40 minutes of toning and stretch Yoga. Finally I could lift my whole body on my two hands in 2 different positions again! Yeah!


Since my Vitamin B12 level was very low last month my doctor advised me to inject B12 and then supplement it more regularly as nugget or liquid. I would suggest anyone who lives vegan for some more years to check your B12 level and supplement if necessary. Higher Iron and B12 levels are helpful for endurance sports, so to increase power you need to do something about it. In the evening I had to do the procedure of injecting myself again and it is not a problem at all anymore, opposingly to the first time I ever did it myself. I had to lay down in bed for a few minutes and kept on sweating. haha!?!

Today I swam 2.3km in the morning from 7 to 7.50 before heading to school. Sports in the morning is pretty refreshing. Too bad I am only able to do it once a week.
Bought some different tasty vegan icecream at Kaufland. If you live in Germany, check Kaufland!
I might be going to do a run for about an hour in a few minutes. 15 min warm up, 15 min marathon pace, 15-30min cooling down. Good night!

Starting this blog

Why do I finally start writing a blog?
Because I think that communication can inspire. I might be able to spread my ideas and outlook on life to persons totally unknown. They might have a similar mindset or I might just show my totally different way I am living life.
I do live vegan for 15 years now and I am feeling stronger than ever before. I want you to feel and get healthy and strong, too. Everybody can get healthier and more vital with just a few improvements on life.
First off: Base your nutrition on plants, eat more foods raw, workout at least 3 times a week.
Plan the 3 workouts and write them down in your agenda!
