Get Primal

Greetings all! I've been posting here for a while and just realized I never put out an intro. Ultramarathon runner converted to primal just over a year ago. A bit different experience, have actually gained over 20 lbs since going primal and love every ounce of it. I was an ultrarunner that was very thin and had lost all my strength. A primal diet and high intensity exercise has put muscle back on faster than I ever imagined possible.
Diet is very heavy carnivore, very low carb. Exercise is the occasional run (primarily for social reasons) combined with Crossfit style workouts and sprints several times a week. Working out about 10 hours less per week than when I was running and am in much better shape, imagine that! Turning 40 soon and in best shape of my life, as others have said age is nothing more than a number.
We have a workout thread under 'Community Experiments' where I've invited people to view my blog. I track my workout results there and encourage others to give them a try and post their results too...come on over! www.getprimal.blogspot.com.
