About Raw Aussie Athlete...
Outside of most people's imagination, Grant not only regularly runs ultra distance marathons of up to 170km, but does them on a 100% raw food, plant-based diet.
Raised on the Central Coast, NSW, Australia, Grant is father to two teenage boys, a musician, and surf lifesaver who, in recent years, received a pretigious bravery award for saving the lives of a family of 4 by swimming them away from rocks and back to shore in 12 foot surf at Soldiers Beach.
Freeing himself from the corporate world in 2009, after 15 years with IBM, Grant now studies lifestyle coaching full time with Dr Doug Graham which also includes researching, writing, website development, information design, and teaching anatomy, physiology and nutrition.
Grant has been eating a 100% plant-based diet since 1999 and a raw food, plant-based diet since 2005. Grant has been running raw food retreats since 2007 and is a passionate and knowledgable speaker on healthful living, nutrition and fitness.
