Both martial arts and yoga are awesome! I really recommend yoga as a complement to running, because it stretches out the muscles that running bunches up, and improves posture and core strength.
Yeah, I think doing the Peak Condition thing might be challenging as a vegan -- but it might be a challenge they would rise to, if one were to inquire. Patrick is based in Japan so must be familiar with people who don't eat a lot of animal products. Potato chips (and anything else that comes in a factory-made package) would be right out, though, except for the three "indulgences" that are built into the program (one per month). I think the program is a good fit for me because I *like* cooking everything from scratch and already use a lot less salt than most people I know. My biggest challenge will be giving up butter.... and chocolate of course.
Oh, it costs $495 altogether (including all the blog hosting/setup, etc.) I'm giving up my gym membership at the end of Sept. which will offset it quite a bit -- one reason I want to do it is to become a fit, yet gym-free (and thus slightly richer) individual.
