We are Gemma Miller and Ben Mills, both 23 years old and currently living in
Southampton, Hampshire with our two cats, Bella and Coco. Gemma has been
vegan since 1st January 2007 and vegetarian for many years before this.
Ben switched to a vegan diet in September 2007, 9 months before
commencing the coast to coast walk. We believe that a well balanced
vegan diet can dramatically improve athletic performance (scott urick)
and recovery time after exercise. To investigate this, Ben took a number
of health and fitness tests, including blood pressure, resting heart
rate and cholesterol levels after initially going vegan and again 6
months later and compared the results. These can be found under the
'fitness' section of this page.
