Biography
Sisson was born in Maine and is the oldest of four siblings. He attended Williams College, where he was a pre-med candidate and earned a biology degree.
Sisson and his wife, Carrie, have two children. He is a follower of the paleo diet and markets his own version of it, called the "Primal Blueprint" diet. As part of this initiative, he started a food blog, "Mark's Daily Apple," in 2006 and has also written a number of diet and exercise books, including the bestselling book, The Keto Reset Diet: Reboot Your Metabolism in 21 Days and Burn Fat Forever.

Sisson served for 15 years as chairman of the International Triathlon Union (ITU) Anti-Doping Commission and as the ITU's liaison to the International Olympic Committee.
