One thing that really cracks me up about the Paleo diet:
How many of our Paleolithic ancestors did Ironman triathlon (or endurance sports in general)?
In other words, the Paleo diet can't match up the fact that you're trying to fuel a completely unnatural, nonsensical (from an evolutionary standpoint) sport with a natural, logical diet. The two just don't jive.
I've experimented with Paleo, and to go TRUE Paleo, you'd have to pick a sport other than triathlon - such as farming, or hunting lions.
