10 Veg Athletes

The Daily Meal publishes a story on 10 vegetarian athletes.

A Heisman Trophy-winning running back, an Olympic track star, and a first baseman for the Milwaukee Brewers are among 10 vegetarian athletes featured in an article on thedailymeal.com. From legendary baseball player Hank Aaron to former tennis superstars Billie Jean King and Martina Navratilova, the athletes use plant-based diets to fuel their workouts and keep themselves healthy. Included in the article is former professional boxer Mike Tyson, a recent convert to veganism who has teamed up with Animal Planet for his show Taking on Tyson, all about his love of pigeons.
