The runner with "VEGAN" socks on the cover of Runner's World.

As the level of awareness and education continues to boom around plant-based health, Runner's World recently helped kick it into gear even further - in the form of knee-high "VEGAN" socks right on the cover.  Also, you will notice another reference to vegan in reference to the smoothies.  

When Runner’s World redesigned their magazine starting with this month’s issue, their stated goal was to have the magazine fit better into every runner’s world.  And they definitely did this!

The cover model, Micah Risk is a 3:18 marathoner and a nutritionist at Lighter, a company she co-founded in Boston to help women take control of their diets, with a focus on real, plant-based food.   

If you are looking to purchase a pair for yourself, they are available for $10 here.
