Hiya there and welcome to it! In this episode, Archie Moyo discusses how the RBZ has had a busy few months. 21 more companies have been investigated for violating SI 127 with 27 getting fines and 12 getting warning letters. What's the reaction with regards to these companies that keep getting found breaching the SI, and why didn't we get a list this time around. Ecobank and the IMTT tax debacle, Ecobank sent a message to account holders to let them know they would be collecting over 6 months' worth of IMTT taxes for transactions they completed. It's a really tricky situation, especially if they choose to deduct all of it at once. All this information helps you continuously improve yourself. #kaizenYOU Speaking of improvement, help us improve the podcast by buying us a coffee on the link below.

It's hard to believe that it was just three years ago, at 50, that a friend convinced Cheryl to try a sprint triathlon. Having not swam since high school and with her wetsuit on backwards, she tackled the 300m in the water. And while the running particularly, and cycling, didn't stick, she keeps tackling one challenge after another in the water.It gave me goosebumps when Cheryl described the newly discovered sense of confidence she developed after completing her swim across the width of Lake Tahoe last year. She's ready to see how far she can swim. And there's no stopping her. In her own words: The first and most important role I have is a mom to my awesome teenage children Brianna and Garrett. Being their mom and trying to be a good role model is the greatest job I have. I am the chief operating officer at our family business. My teenage years and young adulthood was fraught with great challenges and adversity. I struggled, albeit successfully, as a high functioning alcoholic never giving thought to sport. In 2017, someone suggested I participate in a sprint triathlon. I didn’t enjoy the bike, I hated the run, and the 300 yard open water swim scared me to death. Right before the swim, my friend commented that I had my wetsuit on backwards! Something sparked inside me that day and I fell in love with open water swimming. I met my current swim coach, Bob Fernald, that summer at an open water swim event. The following year in 2018, I swam a 10K at the Kingdom Games and 10K in Barbados. I was part of a relay team at IMMT that August. Towing the start line with 2500 other participants in a mass start was not for me! I completed the 2 1/2 mile swim and swore to myself never again. My interest in open water swimming turned to solo marathon swimming. Since then, in 2019, I completed the 12 mile length of Lake Tahoe and I swam the 10k Around the Sound in Bermuda. In 2020, with all events cancelled due to COVID, my awesome crew and I pivoted to local swims. I completed the first documented 12.28 mile double crossing of Newfound Lake of the first documented 16 mile double crossing of Lake Sunapee, both here in New Hampshire. In marathon swimming, I find peace, serenity, and the calm within the storm. I don’t race against anyone, I don’t swim to beat another person‘s distance or time. I swim in complete gratitude for the confidence I have developed in myself through my marathon swimming accomplishments. We all fight our own demons. Swimming helps me quell the noise of negativity and empowers a positive mindset. I am grateful for the amazing people I have met and the friendships that have evolved in the open water swim community. I swim in gratitude of my sobriety for without it, I would never have set foot in the water. I have an amazing husband who supports me in all things swimming. I have a superb crew who, without them, my marathon swimming would never be possible. I swim alone but it takes a team to help me succeed.Questions, comments, feedback, or if you'd like to be a guest on Marathon Swim Stories, email me! mailto:shannon@intrepidwater.com Stay in touch by joining our email list at http://intrepidwater.comJoin a supportive group of limit pushers at The Marathon Swimming CollectiveMusic credit:Epic Inspiration by Rafael KruxLink: https://filmmusic.io/song/5447-epic-inspiration-License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Swimming sounds courtesy of swimmer Todd Lantry.

Today we have Coach David Tilbury Davis on the show to help us on Episode number 4 of the Road to Roth Training series! So for the first time listeners, a bit of a backstory here with the Road to Roth Series – at the beginning of August I announced that I’ll be doing my first full distance triathlon at Challenge Roth in 2020, and since then, I found that a lot of listeners were actually on a similar path; whether it was with Roth or another race; but they too were on their crazy journey to their first full distance triathlon and looking forward to hearing content specific to the full distance! Of course, never having actually done the distance before, I figured everyone could benefit the most in a series where I interview top professional triathletes and coaches that will be able to provide a ton of training tips specific to the full distance as well as give us the motivation and insight we need to help us maximize our performances come race day! Now to introduce David, he has been coaching both professional and age group triathletes since 1995 and has helped his athletes achieve 3 world titles, 11 national titles, multiple regional championship titles and has helped numerous age group triathletes get their qualifying slots for the IRONMAN 70.3 & 140.6 world Championships. David is also the Coach of Cody Beals who recently just smashed the IMMT course record which was set last year by Cody himself in his IRONMAN Debut. but this year not only did he crush it but he also set the first ever Sub 8 hour performance at IMMT. Cody will also be doing his KONA debut this October, so him and David have been hard at work fine tuning and getting ready for this race which you’ll hear about in this podcast! In today’s episode, David also talks to us about the pros and cons of age groupers self-coaching versus getting a coach, how to find a coach that best suits your goals and style, and goes over some great training tips and advice, so I hope you guys enjoy this podcast and be sure to take advantage of your long bike sessions by lining up a few episodes to play for constant workout motivation!

The RunRunLive 4.0 Podcast Episode 4-305 – SheriAnne's Adventures (Audio: link) [audio:http://www.RunRunLive.com/PodcastEpisodes/epi4305.mp3] Link epi4305.mp3 Intro Bumper: https://www.crowdrise.com/TeamHoytBoston2015/fundraiser/christopherrussell Buenas Dias! Mi Amigos. I told you that early in my career I did a couple projects in Chihuahua Mexico, right? That was before it got a bit dicey with the los drugos down there. More innocent times. So we made it to February! Old Man Winter has shown up with a vengeance up here in New England. It's ok, I like winter. Or at least I can deal with it when it's really only a couple months out of the year. That's one of the joys of living here is that you get 4 real seasons, but not enough of each to make them annoying. Makes us flexible and tough. Since we last talked it's been snowing almost every other day. Last weekend we got a cool 2-day blizzard that dumped 3 feet of snow. Since it was cold too, zero degrees Fahrenheit, it was that fluffy snow that is great for winter sports and fairly easy to move, but we got a lot of it. It's over Buddy's head and he's confined to a short path in the front yard. He's got cabin fever and is quite bothersome. I took him for a walk during the blizzard but it was over his head and up to my thighs so we could only break trail for a couple hundred feet before we had to turn around. I've been having to get most of my runs in on the treadmill which is not optimal. After we last talked I ran the Derry 16 miler and felt pretty good. The weather was good at just around freezing. I took it super easy and ran/walked the big hills then closed it nicely in the last 5k. I ended up running around 2:17 and felt pretty strong. That capped a 53 mile week for me on 4 runs. The following weekend I went out for a 3 hour easy run. I took it super easy and did loops around my house. I felt like I could keep going at the end so my base is good and strong. It's a bit dismal with the snow and cold and darkness but you know how it is; the only way out is forward. Besides, the cold weather slows the zombies down. Thanks to those of you who threw me some donations for my Team Hoyt campaign for Running the Boston Marathon this year – I appreciate it. Those of you who haven't, now's a good time. I still need your help. I'm only ¼ way to my goal. Come on now, I don't ask you folks to buy t-shirts, I don't give a rat's ass if you give me a review on iTunes or vote for me in whatever podcast awards are the thing of the day. This isn't a commercial venture for me, it's a creative hobby. So, cough up the cabbage and we'll call it even…quid pro quo Clarice…quid pro quo. Today we have a most excellent show for you. I interview SherAnne Nelson who is the captain of a team that is going to take on the Patagonia Expedition Race next year which is a super hairy race in South America. It's a run-bike-paddle-mountain climbing survival type thing. Hard core. I feel like I could have done a better job with SheriAnne. I feel like I should have asked, “Are you nuts? Leavingyoru comfy life and family for this misadventure? How do you feel about that?“ but I didn't. Even with my love of a good adventure, I'd be terrified. I haven't been traveling and that always makes me a little itchy. But I'm getting a lot done, in between angsty episodes of over eating and over sleeping...But the days are getting longer and I'm hitting the road next week. In section one I wrote a bit of a tongue in cheek piece about some of the myths surrounding marathon running that we have to watch out for. In section two we'll talk about the philosophy of time. So, keep on shoveling, but don't shovel straight lines because as we all know evil spirits love straight lines and will follow them right to your door. Shovel crooked lines. It will confuse the walking dead too. On with the Show!

I am a Fitness and Nutrition Coach that believes in helping people realized their untapped potential. I believe too many people go through life wondering if, and wishing they could do something magnificent. Everyone's "magnificent something" is different, mine just happens to be epic adventures. Everything I do, I think about my children and the example I am setting for them. Setting goals is critical to being successful in life and I love to set big goals that make my heart beat a little faster and make me wonder if it is possible because I love nothing more than busting past that mental barrier. Anything is possible. What I bring to the 2016 Patagonia Expedition Race Team is the desire to succeed. Once I set a goal I will do whatever it takes to accomplish it. The hope and inspiration that I bring to others when sticking through the thick and thin of an event brings me great pleasure. Not only do I want to accomplish my goals for me but for everyone else watching me. I want to be the name that comes off of people's lips when they say, "I didn't quit because of you." The other attribute I will bring to the team is the ability to solve problems under pressure. I deal best when there is pressure, I have the ability to compartmentalize the situation and accomplish what needs to happen in order to move on. I have the ability to keep people calm and focused on the situation at hand.

SheriAnne Nelson Fitness and Nutrition Coach KonaMom.com CoachSheriAnne.com Section two – Life Skills “Time” http://runrunlive.com/time Outro Hey folks we have shoveled a crooked path to the conclusion of yet another RunRunLive Podcast. Episode 4-305 in the can! I think we're short on time so I'll keep it brief. When it gets really cold out I like to wear a balaclava. Unfortunately a couple years ago I lost my balaclava. Maybe one of you could knit me one? I hate to buy one because I we only need it 2 or 3 days a year and I know as soon as I get another one I'll find the old one. My wife in her Yogi Berra moments, (not the picnic basket bear – the catcher with a proclivity for malapropisms) always asks me if I'm wearing my baklava – which gives me a hilarious visual of having my head wrapped in Greek pastry. The new book is getting typeset into a beautiful e-book by a nice gentleman in Pakistan – should be able to ship some promo copies next week. I have to get it converted to Kindle too so I can post it up on Amazon. And remember If you haven't donated a couple bucks to my Hoyt cause – now's a good time! https://www.crowdrise.com/TeamHoytBoston2015/fundraiser/christopherrussell We've got the Groton Road Race coming together for April 26th this year. I'm working to set up a virtual race category so folks can run it remotely. We'll send you one of the super sweet tech shirts that we're putting our ‘wearable art' on this year. http://www.grotonroadrace.com/ I was talking with my daughter last week. She had started a new job and was complaining that she didn't sleep well because she had too many things going on in her head. This is another version of the Tetris problem. You lie awake at night going over all the things you have to worry about and trying to fit them together in a way that makes sense. Your brain is working on that puzzle and can't sleep until it gets resolution. The way to address this problem is to get out a piece of paper or the equivalent handful of electrons, and write down all the things that are on your mind. You purpose here is not to solve the Tetris problem. Your purpose here is to capture all the bits so your subconscious knows that they are in safe keeping. You do this before you go to bed and it allows your brain to take a break and sleep. So sleep tight, and I'll see you out there. Closing comments http://runrunlive.com/my-books

SheriAnne Nelson Fitness and Nutrition Coach KonaMom.com CoachSheriAnne.com Section two – Life Skills “Time” http://runrunlive.com/time Outro Hey folks we have shoveled a crooked path to the conclusion of yet another RunRunLive Podcast. Episode 4-305 in the can! I think we’re short on time so I’ll keep it brief. When it gets really cold out I like to wear a balaclava. Unfortunately a couple years ago I lost my balaclava. Maybe one of you could knit me one? I hate to buy one because I we only need it 2 or 3 days a year and I know as soon as I get another one I’ll find the old one. My wife in her Yogi Berra moments, (not the picnic basket bear – the catcher with a proclivity for malapropisms) always asks me if I’m wearing my baklava – which gives me a hilarious visual of having my head wrapped in Greek pastry. The new book is getting typeset into a beautiful e-book by a nice gentleman in Pakistan – should be able to ship some promo copies next week. I have to get it converted to Kindle too so I can post it up on Amazon. And remember If you haven’t donated a couple bucks to my Hoyt cause – now’s a good time! https://www.crowdrise.com/TeamHoytBoston2015/fundraiser/christopherrussell We’ve got the Groton Road Race coming together for April 26th this year. I’m working to set up a virtual race category so folks can run it remotely. We’ll send you one of the super sweet tech shirts that we’re putting our ‘wearable art’ on this year. http://www.grotonroadrace.com/ I was talking with my daughter last week. She had started a new job and was complaining that she didn’t sleep well because she had too many things going on in her head. This is another version of the Tetris problem. You lie awake at night going over all the things you have to worry about and trying to fit them together in a way that makes sense. Your brain is working on that puzzle and can’t sleep until it gets resolution. The way to address this problem is to get out a piece of paper or the equivalent handful of electrons, and write down all the things that are on your mind. You purpose here is not to solve the Tetris problem. Your purpose here is to capture all the bits so your subconscious knows that they are in safe keeping. You do this before you go to bed and it allows your brain to take a break and sleep. So sleep tight, and I’ll see you out there. Closing comments http://runrunlive.com/my-books
