I'm eating carnivore (meat, eggs, some dairy, seafood), and have been doing that for about 3 months. My plan now is to keep it up. There's just far too many benefits to ignore. See some my other posts on the topic:
If you're interested in specifically in how low-carb works for endurance sports, look into what Tim Noakes has to say. He's a scientist from South Africa, known for being the person that invented "carb-loading", and has now done a 180 on it, and advocates a low-carb diet. He was actually persecuted by the health board in South Africa for offering non-mainstream advice.

I've heard of Tim Noakes, but haven't read that. I'll have a look. For a time while I was racing I would do an early morning session with no food intake since the previous evening. Three weeks of that wrecked me and I had to stop. Hard to implement for endurance sport, but I know some do.
