Bad for kidneys

High protein diets are bad for your kidneys. They have to work extra hard to excrete the protein.

I'm no expert, but, being an endurance athlete, you NEED carbs. I am new to marathons, but have been a competetive xc ski racer (I raced Div. 1 in college). I couldn't ski well and NOT have carbs. Besides, the pasta parties in high school and college were so much fun.

Good luck with whichever "diet" you chose, and with your training. :-)
