Typical day of eating for a world class triathlete

I have been sharing various people's daily meal plans.  I thought it might be helpful to see how other's fuel their bodies.  Also, it is interesting to see how someone that trains for several hours a day is still eating about the same as many people who do not exercise at all. 

Pip Taylor is not only a talented chef and nutritionist but also a world-class triathlete. The Australian’s career highlights include a World Cup triathlon victory, Australia and Oceana Long-Course Triathlon Championship title, and a 3rd-place finish in the Wildflower Triathlon.
