When I looked into veganism more, the environmental argument against meat and dairy seemed so strong as to be irresistible. I kept reading that tons of triathletes and ironman champions were vegan, so at first that was my motivation. It was changing my addiction from booze and drugs to fitness that got me out of it, and through becoming an ultra-athlete I flipped the vegan switch.ĭirty Vegan puffed pears with chocolate and olive oil sauce January 3, 2020 Ten years of craziness ensued, and while I had the best time (a lot of which I can’t remember), the partying and rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle eventually caught up with me in the form of awful, awful depression. We released a video of our messing about and, to cut a long story short, MTV called us up and that’s where Dirty Sanchez began. Me and my mate Dainton started mixing skateboarding with pranks and dares, filming them as we went. I’d been obsessed with skateboarding since school and turned pro when I got spotted by a scout who’d seen me win a competition. It was in my early twenties that my life really changed. My eating routine went entirely out of the window… in fact – if I’m honest – eating happened very rarely due to the daily use of narcotics, alcohol and cigarettes and a general lack of sleep.įor those who don’t know my story, I grew up in Cardiff with my brothers and my mam and dad, and had a pretty normal childhood, although my eccentricity did surface now and then. From the moment we left home it was carnage until we got back a few weeks or months later. Dirty Sanchez’s Matt Pritchard went from living like a rock star to ultra athlete thanks to a vegan diet and a whole new attitudeĬomparing my behaviour during the height of my chaotic Dirty Sanchez touring days with how I look after myself now is mind-blowing. ![]()
