I am joined by Mark Sisson for the wonderful occasion of a new book coming out—Born To Walk. Tune in to hear us talk all about the book, from the title to what made Mark realize that this story had to be told, what the research about running has actually revealed, and why running is, in many cases, antithetical to good health for a lot of people. You'll hear us talk about the fascinating research we discovered that supports this idea that humans were born to walk, and while we are able to run (and can run occasionally as a result of walking a lot, sprinting once in a while, lifting heavy things, moving around and moving through space and time), we were not born to run metronomic eight-minute miles every day, day in and day out as some means to achieving some longevity goal or some health goal. As you will learn in this episode, the running boom of the last 50 years was built upon a House of Cards, and on the idea that humans are born to run. But, humans were not born to run—we were born to walk, and in this episode, you will find out why! TIMESTAMPS: We are looking at increasing your longevity through low level aerobic activity. {00:48] The idea that running was the best route to longevity has been downplayed. [05:56] Shoes have made big changes in the way people run. With the thick soled running shoes, there has been no decrease in running injuries. [08:03] Everybody assumes that running is the sort of gold standard of weight loss, of achieving good health, of mental fortitude, and being able to overcome discomfort. [14:32] What is so appealing about a marathon? [16:47] There are much kinder, gentler ways to achieve great health, not get injured and support the other things that you're doing as part of your longevity program. [21:10] Why doesn't running and burning calories work in pursuit of reducing excess body fat? [22:27] There are two kinds of fat. The subcutaneous fat which is simply unpleasant and the visceral fat which is terribly harmful for your health. [24:51] They promised better results with new cushioned shoes but these shoes have done nothing to decrease injury. [27:21] Understanding chronic cardio is so important in the endurance scene. You can take a good thing too far. [36:52] Mark had to change the way he pursued his athletic life. After retiring from elite competition, how did he learn to train at a lower level? [45:09] The Ordeal of the Obligate Runner is the title of one of the chapters. What does that mean? [48:31] What is the difference between being a sugar burner and a fat burner? [56:54] There is research showing that if you just have a lighter shoe, you save four minutes over a marathon. [01:02:36] We encourage you to walk but you need to learn the proper form. [01:07:06] What is the primal approach for getting more energy? You don't need to run to give yourself immortality [01:18:27] LINKS: Brad Kearns.com Brad's Shopping page B.rad Whey Protein Isolate Superfuel - The Best Protein on The Planet!

In this episode, we sit down with Tim Moffatt, a runner who took a unique path into the world of endurance running. Tim's story is inspiring, not just because of his achievements in running, but because of his journey growing up with two wheelchair-bound parents, which shaped his outlook on life and his approach to challenges. Tim shares how, as a kid, he hated sports but always found joy in walking everywhere, often pushing himself to cover long distances on foot. This love for walking eventually morphed into a passion for running, spurred by the encouragement of friends. His first run was an impulsive 12km race, and from there, his running journey took off. Tim talks about his experience in road marathons, and how he transitioned into trail running and ultra-endurance events. His story is filled with moments of resilience and determination, like completing the challenging UTA 100km race after never having run a trail race before! Tim's journey will inspire listeners to find joy in the challenge and push their limits, whether they're running their first 5k or tackling an ultra. Running Tips from Tim: 1.Walk Before You Run: Tim's early years of walking long distances helped build his endurance for running. 2.Start Small, Dream Big: You don't have to start with a marathon—take your time and build up your distance. 3.Be Inspired by Challenges: Don't shy away from tough runs; use them as a way to push your limits. 4.Find Your Own Pace: Running is personal, so listen to your body and find the pace that works for you. 5.Enjoy the Journey: Running is more than just racing—enjoy the adventure and the places it takes you. 6.Be Part of the Community: Running with others or joining a running group can give you extra motivation.

Welcome to the Purple Patch podcast. This week, we aim to inspire, instill hope, and create opportunities. Many people watch others doing amazing things and think, "That's not for me. I couldn't do that." But the truth is, you can do it if you apply a smart and patient approach that builds incrementally over time. Before you know it, you can look back and marvel at what you have accomplished, regardless of the challenge or goal, whether in sport or life. In this week's episode, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon focuses on marathon and half marathon races. Half marathons are a great starting point for many people and can serve as a bridge to longer distances. Whether you've struggled with injuries or don't consider yourself a runner, Matt offers insight and tips to help you break through those barriers. Drawing from two case studies, Matt explores the common challenges faced by athletes training for long-distance runs and offers simple solutions to maximize their potential. The first case study features an athlete who initially believed completing a race was impossible, but ultimately discovered untapped capabilities. The second case study showcases an athlete who overcame injuries by adjusting their approach and achieved significant success. We believe you'll find these stories informative, helpful, and inspiring and we hope they motivate you to take on your challenges. Matt also shares his five-point plan to help you refocus your approach and mindset, to get you started on your first or next long-distance race. Check out our free live webinar, Strategies to Nail Your Marathon & Half Marathon, where Matt offers a more in-depth analysis of these points.

In this episode of Run with Fitpage, we have none other than Jasmin Paris - the first ever woman finisher to the grueling Barkley Marathons. Jasmin discusses her running journey, how she finished the Barkley Marathons, her initiatives with the environment and alot more with our host, Vikas Singh. Jasmin Karina Paris, born in November 1983, is a British runner celebrated for her remarkable achievements in endurance sports. Raised amidst the stunning landscapes of the Peak District and educated at Manchester High School for Girls, Paris discovered her affinity for running after university.

Hebrews 12:1-2 The post Endurance Running appeared first on Christ Our Redeemer.
"We have to learn to bend before we break,"...What started out as a finish line conversation after a particularly gruelling marathon (in one of Durban's finest displays of humidity), resulted in what you'll hear today. With those words, Jordy nudged us towards a reality that few are prepared to acknowledge, and ultimately forced the question to be asked: what are the limits of endurance? Today is a deep dive and exploration into the human body and how it responds to endurance training with a special focus on HORMONES! Thanks to Jordy's personal experience in covering ultra-distances and his medical training as a doctor, he is able to break down and help us understand how to tread the fine line between exercise being a helpful tool in the pursuit of health and longevity and when we may be short changing ourself and pushing boundaries at the potential risk of, serious and irreparable damage...Today we learn about: What are hormones and why are humans ultimately "hormone puppets" governed by them.How hormones are created and how body fat, digestive health and nutrition are all intimately linked.The 'exercise paradox' and using exercise as a form of medicine/drug.The dark-side of training/or not being able to train and how it relates to our mental health.Training, ageing and longevity in the sport.Learning how to appreciate the plateaus and shifting the goal post when performance-based goals are no longer an option.As you'll hear, Jordy is a master of his craft, both on 'the field' and in the office, he is also a fantastic story teller and will have you rethinking your 'why' when it comes to running - which is always a great idea to revisit and realign with.We hope that today's conversation leaves you feeling both inspired and empowered about your running and your health.Let us know if you enjoyed this 2 part conversation and make sure to share with a running buddy so that we can ensure that we are all able to run stronger for longer.Enjoy!

Today, we're joined by an incredible guest, Peter Ryan, a remarkable athlete who has conquered adversity and shattered barriers.Growing up, rural Tipperary was home for Peter. That meant sports and plenty of them. He was very good at soccer and hurling but never pushed himself. In school he followed the crowd and stayed within his lane. He was a coasting through school happy in the knowledge a job in construction would see him through.Then at the age of 19 his eyesight began to fail and he was diagnosed with Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy, a rare genetic disorder that left him with between five and ten percent peripheral vision in both eyes. Basically, he was legally blind.In what felt like the blink of an eye what Peter knew as normal had disappeared, his identity was gone and he turned to alcohol to cope. He hit rock bottom before sport saved him and he unleashed the potential within… becoming a Paralympian!Human, brave, honest, funny, a world class athlete… This is Peter Ryan!WebsiteInstagram TwitterFacebook

For those who are new to running, the training requirements for a marathon or other running events may seem intimidating or overwhelming. Alternatively, even experienced runners may face challenges with injuries related to race preparation. No matter where you are in your performance journey, there is an effective way to approach training for an endurance running event without overloading on hours and intensity, and risking your health and performance. In today's episode of the Purple Patch Podcast, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon aims to evolve your approach to running training using his innovative method designed to help you improve your speed, prevent injuries, and enhance overall performance in all aspects of your life, regardless of your level or experience. In his analysis of the typical training methods used by runners, Matt highlights the reasons why they often fail to meet their race goals. He proposes an alternative approach to marathon training that uses a prescriptive combination of strength training, running, and supporting multi-sport workouts to enhance overall fitness, endurance, and durability. Matt provides examples of this innovative and proven strategy that has helped countless Purple Patch runners and athletes optimize their training and racing.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith... Hebrews 12:1-2a
This week we sit down to chat with Scott Traer, Race Director for the Desert Runner Trail Series, to preview the upcoming McDowell Mountain Frenzy, which takes place on December 3rd and is the second race in the DRT Series. We also chat about the JFK 50 Mile, Spartan Golden Gate Classic as well as the upcoming Fat Ox Endurance Runs and the Ultra-Trail Cape Town 100K. Quick takes include Camille Herron's goals at Desert Solstice, the pitfalls of live-streaming races, the (possibly real?) bear suit cross country run attempt, and 3 of the all-time ugliest running shoes.
Hello Beautiful People!CONNECT WITH JENNAH-LOUISEWork With Me - Mindset Coaching| https://www.jennahlouise.com.auInstagram | https://www.instagram.com/jennah_louiseCONNECT WITH ZACHInstagram | https://www.instagram.com/zachbitterOn today's podcast we have Zach Bitter. Zach is an ultramarathon athlete, coach and host of the Human Performance Outliers podcast. He has broken both the World and American Records in running 100 miles, that's 160km, in 11 hours, 19 minutes and 13 seconds! What I love about this conversation is the difference between Zach and I, and how much I learned from him. As many of you know, I absolutely love endurance running. I love it for the experience, the adventure, the uncertainty and the unknown. And yes, Zach certainly runs for the experience, but to be a world record holder in running 100 miles on the track, it is necessary to remove as much as you can in relation to this uncertainty and the unknown. There is a lot of great advice right down to specificity in the conversation that will help with increasing your performance, and there is a lot we can learn from Zach in terms of commitment. It took Zach 6 years of dedication to achieve the world record, and we go deep on what supported him in staying on the path of greatness during those years. Please enjoy this conversation with Zach.#jennahlouise #tobehumanpodcast
Dr Richard Blagrove is a strength and conditioning coach, exercise physiologist, researcher and author of Strength and Conditioning for Endurance Running. In 2017 Richard and his research team published a landmark systematic review which explored the effects of strength training on the physiological determinants of middle and long-distance running performance. Richard's research interests lie in the use of strength-based exercise as a tool to improve the metabolic cost of running. Recently Richard has begun to investigate the consequences of low energy availability on physical performance and health biomarkers in endurance athletes. In this episode we re-learn and revise around the how, what and scientific whys behind ‘why runners and endurance athletes need and will benefit from strength training'.

Human beings are distinctly weird. We live for a very long time after we stop reproducing, move completely differently than all of our closest relatives, lack the power of chimpanzees and other primates but completely outdo most other terrestrial mammals in a contest of endurance. If we think about bodies as hypotheses about the stable features of their ancestral environments, what do the features of our unusual physiology say about what humans ARE, where we come from, the details of our origin story as a profoundly successful species? And what can we learn by telescoping that story forward to explain some of the most persistent puzzles and paradoxes about our health, the way we age, our need for physical exercise, and our nearly ubiquitous aversion to habits that are good for us?Welcome to COMPLEXITY, the official podcast of the Santa Fe Institute. I'm your host, Michael Garfield, and every other week we'll bring you with us for far-ranging conversations with our worldwide network of rigorous researchers developing new frameworks to explain the deepest mysteries of the universe.This week, we sprint into the paleoanthropology, biomechanics, and physiology of exercise with Harvard evolutionary biologist Daniel Lieberman, author of several books including Exercised, The Story of the Human Body, and The Evolution of the Human Head. In our rapid-fire discussion we explore how millions of years as hunter-gatherers equipped hominids with a unique package of adaptations for endurance running, why exercise is so good for us but so generally undesirable, and how physical activity in old age helped shape us into the strongly intergenerational social apes we are today.Be sure to check out our extensive show notes with links to all our references at complexity.simplecast.com.
