In this week's episode, I'm joined by therapist Cory Reese. Beyond being an author and ultra marathon runner, Cory has a wealth of knowledge from being trained in psychedelic assisted therapy. He offers his perspective on the transformative potential of psychedelic therapy as an alternative for addressing mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, and trauma. He outlines the structure of a typical session, explores the unique benefits of various psychedelics, and opens up about his personal journey of undergoing this treatment firsthand.  You can find more information on Ketamine-Assisted Therapy by visiting Cory Reese's website Mentioned in episode: How to Change Your Mind by Michael Pollan Want more content?

You can connect with him on his website https://www.coryreese.com/home and purchase his books here https://www.amazon.com/Stronger-Than-Dark-Relationship-Depression/dp/1736966405/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1623181555&sr=8-1Hi. My name is Cory. I am a…well…it's complicated. I am a husband. I am a dad to three teenagers. I am the owner of a Great Dane named Little Debbie who loves nothing more than to steal pizza off the kitchen counter. Wait. There is so much more to me. I am a Kia Sorento driver. A CPAP wearer. A Utah Jazz fan. A child of a father who took his life. An ally. An ex-Mormon. A terrible handyman. A recovering Twinkie addict. A snow hater and a sun lover. A composer of piano music. A believer that good things are coming. I am afraid of needles. Obsessed with Bruce Springsteen. Fierce in my distaste for seafood. Proud of myself for memorizing every line of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. I am an ultramarathon runner. I've run dozens of 100-mile races. Badwater. Western States. Wasatch. 100 miles around a high school track. 100 miles around the deck of a cruise ship. I've fallen in love with the sense of satisfaction that comes from seeing what I'm capable of, and realizing that it's usually more than I think. I am an author. I've written for a bunch of publications over the years, and am currently a columnist for UltraRunning Magazine. I've written a few books titled Nowhere Near First, and Into the Furnace. My new book is called Stronger Than the Dark, and explores the intimate relationship between running and depression. I want to be like David Sedaris when I grow up. I am a social worker. For two decades, my career has involved walking with people into the darkness, and talking about hard things. My occupation: aspiring beam of light. I know people all around me are fighting silent battles. I have been the one providing therapy, and the one receiving it. I am passionate about advocating for mental health. Wait. There is so much more to me. Those are the labels that define me. But I am more than a list of labels. I am enthusiasm. I am determination. I am broken. I am whole. I am light. I am adventure. I am creativity. I am love. I am enough.Warmly,Nico Barraza@ThatBarrazaBoywww.nicobarraza.com

Ari talks about growing up in the picture perfect Mormon family, and how it all crumbled when she was excommunicated from that family for speaking out against abuse. In this episode, we discuss how Ari lost her faith in the church when she realized that it, too was rooted in abuse and lies, and set on excommunicating those who spoke out against those things. In her discovery, she concluded that the church creates toxic family systems and even abuse cycles. Ari and Adam are parents to 9 kids, and are now cycle breakers.

#129 - Training coach and author Matt Schifferle has spent a lot of time creating efficient and effective workout routines. He doesn't believe in wasting time on exercises that don't matter and neither do I. That's why it was so educating and refreshing to have him on my show. None of us have an infinite amount of time in our days to add long strengthening routines. We already have miles to run, as well as everything else. Let's save some time and have some fun! In this week's Tales of the Trail, I talk about Cory Reese's latest book Stronger Than the Dark.For all links related to this episode, please visit the website at: www.martharunstheworld.com to send comments, questions or ideas for future show topics, please email me at: martharunstheworld@gmail.com 

TNCRadio.LIVE  https://www.coryreese.com/books In his gripping memoir, Cory Reese offers a compelling and vulnerable insight into the pervasive destruction of depression. Drawing on lessons learned over a decade of ultramarathon running, Stronger Than the Dark offers a powerful new approach in the battle against depression: the willingness to embrace suffering.  Bio: CORY REESE lives in southern Utah with his wife and children. He is the author of the books Nowhere Near First, Into the Furnace, and Stronger Than the Dark. He is also a columnist for UltraRunning Magazine. Cory is a licensed clinical social worker, speaker, and passionate mental health advocate.

This week I am honored to sit down and chat with ultrarunner and writer Cory Reese to talk about his experiences running Vol State and writing his new powerful book "Stronger Than the Dark: Exploring the Intimate Relationship Between Running and Depression". Cory has written a few books in the past but this one definitely is the most personal, raw story he has ever told. His own description of the book: "Stronger Than the Dark is a book that explores the intimate relationship between running and depression. It is the most raw, vulnerable writing I have ever done. I wrote the book: For people who use exercise, at least in part, to cope with stress, anxiety or depression. For people who feel alone. They know something is wrong, but don't know what it is, or how to fix it. For people who are desperate for an ounce of hope that things will get better, and that the sun will rise again. For people who use a smile to cover up their secret pain. For runners, the people who are willing to embrace the pain cave." This was a really enlightening conversation about mental health and the role exercise/adventure plays along with the necessity of opening up about our struggles. "Cory's beautifully broken path of healing speaks to anyone feeling lost in insecurity or despair, and gives hope that even in life's darkest moments, we can find the light." Hope you guys enjoy the episode! It is always a pleasure chatting with Cory!!

With few races being held it takes creativity to create your own challenge. In this episode we talk to a few runners that did just that. Mike Foote and Rob Krar set an amazing FKT on a Grand Canyon R2R2R crossing in the frigid temps of December 31, which included a naked swim across the Colorado River TWICE! You can see their video HERE. You can find out more about Rob's camp and coaching HERE. You can check out Mike's mountain races at The Rut or at The Runner's Edge. But you don't have to be so elaborate in your planning to have an adventure. Cory Reese shows us that it just takes a simple idea. His challenge was a 23-mile route connecting all eight Mavericks (convenience store) around his town with the added challenge of eating something unhealthy at each! You can find Cory each month in Ultrarunning Magazine as a columnist and check out his book, Nowhere Near First:Ultramarathon Adventures From The Back of the Pack

Cory Reese is an ultra runner and author of "Nowhere Near First" and co-author of "Into the Furnace." In this episode Cory shares about his prep and experience at Yeti 100. He also shares advice on blister prevention. Hear Cory's Top 10 hardest list for races in his experience and about his 100 finishes and DNFs. Also, get a sneak peek of his next book. "Writing a book is like running an ultra." 

We had a lot of fun sharing our favorite running (and other) related book we read in 2019.  Note, these are just a sampling of the books but some of our favorites.  You'll want to listen in on the details and what we loved about them.  If you see my running pic and wonder why it's the episode photo, it's because I'm wearing my Aftershokz headphones as I read the rest of my next book; I would share which one I was listening to, but since this pic is from 2020 you'll have to wait until next year to get that list. :) I'm not sure if you can tell, but reading is a huge deal in our home.  We had to cut out so many books shared in this episode and even shared below.  If you want a more full list, I encourage you to contact me and I can fill you in on more either from myself or Audrey. Before I share that full list, you'll want to check out our sponsor, Audible, where you can get a trial membership for 30 days and then jump into the Audible Challenge 2020 (for new and current members) where if you read (listen to) 3 books of 3 hours or more by March 3rd (get it - 3/3 by 3/3?!) you can get a free $20 Amazon gift card!  I'm already halfway there and my books are much longer than 3 hours. :)  I love listening to audiobooks and find that Audible gives me immediate access to the books I want to listen to.  When I'm done with my "book from the month" I just jump back over and listen to podcasts the rest of the month.  Funny thing is I never run out of things to listen to. In the meantime, here's just a short sample of some of the books you heard about in our episode: Anyone else listen to audiobooks when you run? Any favorites I should read? Have you read any of these? Running Related: Can't Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds by David Goggins Although not exactly a running book (he is an ultra runner and discussed experiences at multiple races including the 135-mile Badwater through Death Valley) this is hugely life changing (including your training). Please note the explicit language you might expect from a Navy Seal.   Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand A MUST! I'm not sure if a book has emotionally affected me as much as this. After finishing, it took me a while to recover to talk without breaking into tears. Seriously.   80/20 Running: Run Stronger and Race Faster by Training Slower by Matt Fitzgerald, Robert Johnson Although I already had this mindset going into the book (I just need to more consistently apply it) this was a nice expansion to my understanding of Train Slow Race Fast! Highly encouraged to read it!   A Race Like No Other: 26.2 Miles Through the Streets of New York by Liz Robbins A MUST if you ever plan to run the New York City Marathon!   The Rise of the Ultra Runners by Adharanand Finn Full of anecdotal stories by one aspiring ultra runner. I wasn't in love with this book but a good introduction into races in Europe that I might have not otherwise heard.   Training for Ultra: Ultra Running Stories from the Middle of the Pack by Rob Steger I had no idea that Rob's podcast was by the same author but loved his stories and recaps of some amazing races. Also love hearing from runners "like the rest of us" instead of the elite runners we hear about in books every day.   Nowhere Near First: Ultramarathon Adventures from the Back of the Pack by Cory Reese After a heart-wrenching start to his ultra running career, this guy knows how to suffer. The book is motivating and entertaining throughout his descriptions of how he transformed into the runner he is today.   Into the Furnace: How a 135 Mile Run Across Death Valley Set My Soul on Fire by Cory Reese, Luke Thoreson Great followup to his first book. Enjoyed hearing so many details on a race that intrigues me on so many different levels.   The Pursuit of Endurance: Harnessing the Record-Breaking Power of Strength and Resilience by Jennifer Pharr David Not originally a trail runner, she held the FKT on the Appalachian Trail. Her stories of the trail and her experiences make it a fun listen.   North by Scott Jurek and Jenny Jurek Have been a Scott Jurek fan for years so had to listen to this book. Enjoyed the experiences added by his wife, Jenny, possibly more so. Great listen!   Two Hours by Ed Caesar A must-read for those that have read dozens of running books but nothing to write home about. I would put most of the other books in front of this one but still a worthy read.   Not Running Related: Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card It's been years since I last heard this book. I think I caught more subtleties on the characters and their interactions as a more experienced adult.   The Learning Brain by The Great Courses Truly educational and eye opening! Enjoyed the tips throughout on how to increase my own learning and memory potential.   Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury Not the book I was expecting. Asked to read by my daughter, this gripping novel surprised me by its message and relevance for everyone to listen to today.   1984 by George Orwell Another book as requested by my daughter. This book was so gripping I had to find chores around the house for a weekend to finish it. I could not walk away from this one!   The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri Another requested by my daughter. I found this one intriguing and listened through all three lands (most just read Inferno). Reading cliff notes after each chapter helped solidify what I heard.   Hamlet by William Shakespeare As I prepared to introduce Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead (amazing movie - check it out!) I realized I had never really read Hamlet. There are so many cultural references that I didn't realize came from this book. The stage presentation was enjoyable and made it easier to listen to. And yes, the movie made even more sense after reading this as well! :)   The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells Yes another recommended by my daughter - can you tell she's well read? Her writing reflects it! I expected this to be a "dated" book but loved the narrative, the story, and found myself a bit emotional at parts.   The Peloponnesian War by Thucydides I have to admit I only got through about 15 hours of this book. Spurred to read this by my daughter (read along as she read it for class) I plowed through the book, watching YouTube videos for context. Although a classic, I gave up towards the end as she finished the book way faster than me. :)   Measure What Matters: How Google, Bono, and the Gates Foundation Rock the World with OKRs by John Doerr Likely not for everyone, but a gem! I can see this being helpful for your life no matter your vocation as it can literally apply to all! I invite you to send any book recommendations to me so I can add them to my list for 2020.

On this episode of 20 Minute Fitness we sit down with Cory Reese, an ultrarunner and author of the book 'Into The Furness'. Cory, who lives in Southern Utah with his wife and three kids, started off his running career with simple half-marathons and ended up racing in one of the hottest places in the world, Death Valley. Listen to this week's episode to find out how to train for and push through the world's toughest ultramarathon!Three Things You Will Learn 1.) What Motivates An Ultrarunner To Sign Up For A RaceUltramarathons can be anywhere between 26.219 miles to 3100 miles. Which, to most of us, seem scary even by looking at these numbers. Hence, signing up for an ultra race is definitely something that needs courage and a big bucket of motivation. In our interview Cory shares some insights about his transition from marathons to ultramarathons and what makes him sign up for a new race.2.) How To Prepare For The Toughest Race In The WorldBadwater is usually referred to as 'the world's hardest ultramarathon'. It is a 135-mile long race that starts 279 feet below sea level in the Badwater Basin located in Death Valley, and ends 8360 feet above sea level at Whitney Portal. As you imagine it is a race that challenges even the toughest and most experienced runners and so it's essential to properly train your body for it. Press 'play' now for the best tips on preparing for a deathly race, like Badwater!3.) The Key To Pushing Through An Ultra RaceDuring an ultramarathon you're likely to face a number of challenges. When your body is giving up but you still have a long road ahead, you need to find a way to keep yourself going. Listen to this week's episode to find out how Cory managed to overcome his struggles, like sleep deprivation, during the Badwater Ultramarathon!

Ben and Jerry's is famous for their creative and unique ice cream flavors.  Today we try to make a correlation between these flavors and Ultrarunning. Cory Reese, aka FastCory, joins 33 Shake co-founder and resident TRN European Corospondent, Warren Pole to either use real Ben and Jerry's ice cream flavors or a made up flavor to discuss interesting facts about trail and ultra running.

Join Scotty, Adam, Tony, Rachel and the triumphant return of the Marathon Whisperer Denise Sauriol to discuss her travels all over the world running marathons, fresh of the Boston and London Marathons.  They also discuss the first half of Cory Reese's book "Nowhere Near First," marathon coaching, the deadpool, strava shoutouts, and much much more!    

This week I'm very excited to welcome ultra runner and writer Cory Reese to the podcast. First of all, Cory recently finished running a 100 miler on the deck of a cruse ship! That's 16 laps per mile- 1,600 laps around and around and around the same teeny tiny track, fueling on an endless supply from the ice cream machine as he took on some self-imposed suffering. All the while overlooking people lounging around at the pool. Just had to get that out there! I cannot even begin to wrap my head around a 100 miler, let alone one on a cruise ship.... Insanity! Cory is one of my favorite writers in the sport of ultrarunning. His first book "Nowhere Near First" is one of the absolute best views of this crazy sport from a "regular", non-elite, perspective. Most of us are not elite athletes and Cory fully represents the spirit of why an everyday person participates in something so seemingly bizarre as running for hours and hours through the woods (or on a cruise ship). He comes across as a "regular" dude, but his mindset is anything but. Regular people don't step up to the challenge of Badwater, a 135 mile run through Death Valley in July. Cory did. We get into why and how he took this on a bit in the show. He recently wrote about his experience and all the craziness of Badwater in his upcoming book "Into the Furnace" which you can (and should) pre-order now by checking out his Kickstarter campaign linked below. Cory also has a hilarious blog fastcory.com (which my computer annoyingly wants to correct to "factory") and can be found running on his hometown trails of Zion National Park. Enjoy the show!
