So now we are seeing races for 2021 canceled - Big Sur Marathon canceled until at least 2022.

Once again an article that conflates Keto and LCHF. While Keto is LCHF, LCHF is not necessarily Keto. Also, this does not deal with the fact that most who race that are LCHF use carbs, to some extent, to race as the goal is metabolic flexibility.

Also, as is alluded to the move to LCHF is not only done as a boost to endurance performances but for ones overall health which should be the most important.
