I'm not vegan, but wanted to make sure you'd heard of Scott Jurek and knew he wrote a book called Eat and Run. He is a vegan ultra runner, and in the book he discusses some of his challenges and includes a recipe each chapter.

Not vegan either. But, I am seriously contemplating making a move in that direction. I have cut out all red meat, pork, and dairy (expect cheese, that's a hard one for me). The next logical step is getting rid of poultry and fish. But baby steps I guess. I am currently training for a 50K in a couple of months and then a full marathon in the fall. and pretty much always have a race on the schedule. You can add me on here if you want. I'm also on Strava if you use that service.

By the way I loved Scott Jurek's book as well as Rich Roll's Finding Ultra.

I was vegan for several years before adding in some eggs. (I have my own hens.) I had no difficulty with the diet and running big miles.

For what it's worth, I actually spoke to Scott Jurek about suggestions for eating on trail runs, a decade or so ago. He was vague, but pleasant. We were both running trails near Foresthill California. Not only was he faster, he was taller than me and had better hair.

Hi! Just joined this group, but I'm a vegan runner! I'll add you
