About me

Hi, my name is Chris Walker and I am a junior Neuroscience major at Duke University. I picked up triathlon a little over a year ago and I have totally fallen in love with it. God has blessed me with some talent and potential to develop in the sport very quickly.
I love to train. I love to race. I am also planning on going into medicine. Then I want to go pro in triathlon.

Go Duke!
S.D.G.

check out China Study to understand the issues with protein in the diet. I eat wheat and do not avoid gluten. but high amounts of protein can be hard on your stomach....

of interest genetically designed vegetables such as corn are designed to not have protein as the starchy stuff grows better. If we ate Indian corn it would be so much healthier for us. the corn we grow now is not very healthy stuff and is a reflection of philosophy in the 50's about trying to feed the world. we have so much corn now that much of it is fed to animals resulting in a disruption of a healthy food supply... it makes cows so fat and unhealthy that they are all pretty sick before they go to slaughter. (check out the movie King Corn... great animation too)
