Though wheatgrass, sprouts, and cheese made of cashews might not be everyone's idea of a feast, the raw food movement seems to be alive and thriving.

Reporter Jude Joffe-Block sat down with Cafe Gratitude owner, Matthew Engelhart, to find out more about the movement to consume un-cooked food.

She runs 10 hours every weekend, and competes regularly in 50 or 100-mile ultramarathons. During her most recent race on Saturday, April 4, King tried to run 50 miles in 11 hours. Did she make it?
