Why Support The Marathon?

Why Plant-Based?
Eating a plant-based diet could be the “single biggest way” to reduce your environmental impact on earth. – Oxford University
Researchers at the University of Oxford found that cutting meat and dairy products from your diet could reduce an individual’s carbon footprint from food by up to 73 per cent.
What Is Plant-Based?
Plant-Based food is food that is made entirely from plants. Plant-based food is completely free of all animal products including dairy, egg, fish, meat, honey or any animal derived ingredients such as gelatine.
