Is it possible that the simple act of mindful breathing can help you go the extra mile?In this episode, I sit down with Danny Dreyer, the acclaimed author of ChiRunning and ChiWalking to explore the profound impact of mindful breath on your life. Beyond the realms of running, Dreyer's wisdom extends to the very essence of being, offering invaluable insights on how conscious breathing can revolutionize your physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.Danny has played a key role in my own personal journey. I picked up his book, ChiRunning, around the time when I was training for my first marathon. And one tiny passage in this book around the power of presence while running set course for countless things that have unfolded in my own life. (Including finishing that marathon – with a smile on my face!)Danny Dreyer takes us on an exploration of the intersection between mindful breath and life's most profound experiences. ChiRunning, inspired by the principles of Tai Chi, goes far beyond running. It serves as a gateway to a life where balance, harmony, and presence are at the forefront.In this episode, you'll uncover:How mindful breath, as a central component of ChiRunning, can transcend the act of running and become a transformative tool for everyday life.Techniques for harnessing the power of conscious breath to manage stress, anxiety, and cultivate emotional resilience.Practical insights into the synergy between body and breath, creating an experience of flow and balance.Tips for embracing a more mindful, purposeful existence Personal stories and experiences that illustrate the profound impact of mindful breath on one's life.Whether you're an avid runner seeking to enhance your performance or an individual simply seeking greater peace and presence, Danny Dreyer's wisdom will guide you towards a more conscious, empowered, and balanced life.----This Thursday Thread episode is part of Brilliance of Breathwork Month, an initiative bringing greater awareness to this transformative healing modality.----Meet Danny DreyerDanny Dreyer is the creator of ChiRunning® and ChiWalking®. His work is based on his study of tai chi with masters Zhu Xilin and George Xu, and he is an esteemed walking and running coach with 33 years of experience running, racing ultramarathons, and coaching thousands of people in intelligent movement.

 In this episode I speak with Danny Dreyer, walking and running coach, ultramarathon runner, lecturer and co-founder of Chi Living. He is the coauthor, with Katherine Dreyer, of, "ChiRunning: A Revolutionary Approach to Effortless," "Injury-Free Running," "ChiWalking: Fitness Walking for Lifelong Health and Energy," and "Chi Marathon: The Breakthrough Natural Running Program for a Pain-Free Half Marathon and Marathon." His wakeup call was feeling intellectually challenged by a lack of parenting, dropping out of college, but then discovering a series of talents and careers culminating in marathon running and discovering how Chi could increase his and other people's mastery of it and many other things. https://chiliving.com/company/about-us/

Professional explorer Ray Zahab has crossed some of the most unforgiving environments on Earth. He ran across the Sahara in 111 days and traversed Baffin Island nine times, most of them at the height of winter. In conversation with Medcan CEO Shaun Francis, Zahab argues for the age-defying and stress-busting benefits of adventure travel. Like Shaun, Zahab is an advocate for the Japanese practice of “forest bathing” and argues that we can access similar perks by just getting outside and exploring nature. It’s an inspiring conversation with a 52-year-old explorer who is not letting the pandemic keep him down. In fact, he’s vowed to exit lockdown restrictions in the best shape of his life.  INSIGHTS It is one of Zahab’s most foundational beliefs that people underrate themselves. He argues that most anyone has the capacity to accomplish so-called impossible tasks. Zahab’s experience conforms to that edict. After all, he won the first ultramarathon he ever entered. “Many of us underestimate ourselves physically, mentally [and] emotionally at some point in our lives. And we're capable of so much more,” he says. (12:34 - 12:48)  Someone recently messaged Zahab asking how to start running: “I’m not a runner, but I would really love to do a run someday. I don't even own running shoes. What do I do?” Zahab said, “you get off the couch on day one, and you walk to your front door, and you put on whatever shoes you have any kind of shoe, you lace them up, then you take them off and you walk back to the couch. That's the end of day one. Day two, you put the shoes on, you walk down to the end of your laneway or the end of your block, turn around, you walk home. Day three, you walk to the running shoe store — you get what I'm saying? A marathon starts with the first step.”  (14:05) Running gets a bad rap. Everything’s all about how to avoid getting injured while running. But if you follow a proper mobility and running program — running is exceptionally good for you. “It’s a hell of a lot better for you than not doing it,” Zahab says. (18:08) Doubt has afflicted Zahab, same as anyone. At the start of his Sahara expedition, Zahab left the west coast of Senegal and passed the first days of the 100-day-plus journey mired in low self-confidence. “I thought, all right, there's no way I'm making that,” Zahab recalls. “There's just no way. These guys will make it and I will not. But I'll go as far as I can. And that's all I can do.” But somehow, he did it. (23:03 - 23:35) On ultramarathons, desert crossings or Arctic expeditions, Zahab does what the Fleetwood Mac song says: “Don’t stop thinking about tomorrow.” In other words, take it one day at a time. “You get on day 60 [and you’ve] got 50 more days to go. 50. Like, forget it. The mind doesn't go there,” he says. “It's like, ‘okay, I'm going to get through tomorrow. And then tomorrow when we get in, we're gonna have something to eat.’ That's all I'm thinking about.” (27:03 - 27:36) Zahab believes in the Japanese concept of forest bathing – surrounding yourself with trees to reap the wellness benefits. “I've always felt [a close connection to nature when I’m running], to everything that's around me — that we are one connection,” he says. “We're one piece … and when I'm running, that is like a meditation for me.” (27:50 - 29:12, 29:34 - 30:44) Humans are capable of much more than they think they can achieve. Need proof? Think the COVID-19 vaccine. A shot that should have taken scientists 10 years to develop ended up getting into human arms in less than one. Ray believes in the human capacity for achievement. “I'm a big believer that you define what your goal is and work backward from there. There's always a plan. There's always a way.” Amen. (32:34 - 32:33) LINKS In the 2014 documentary film Running the Sahara, Zahab and two fellow ultramarathoners traversed Africa’s Sahara Desert on foot in 111 days.  Known as one of the “Goose People”, Zahab is a frequent product tester and representative for Canada Goose.  Testing endurance and will, the Marathon Des Sables is just one of the footraces Zahab has completed. Twice. Learn more about Zahab's adventures around the world by visiting his website.  Zahab is the founder of the non-profit organization Impossible2Possible that aims to push people to surpass their limits, and encourage youth to use adventurous experiences as a learning tool. He also creates once-in-a-lifetime expeditions and adventures through his company Kapik 1. Zahab recommends the book The Hidden Life of Trees, in which author Peter Wohlleben argues that the forest is a social network. It is available on Indigo and Amazon. Another one of Zahab's favourite reads is Chi Running: A Revolutionary Approach to Effortless, Injury-Free Running, available on Amazon and Indigo.   Zahab documents his journey on the Trans Namibia Expedition in a compelling video. There, he and his team ran 60 kilometres a day in extreme heat.   To learn about the Japanese practice of forest bathing, go here.  Connect with Zahab on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram @rayzahab.

This week I had the privilege of sitting down with sub 3 hour marathoner and one of the founding fathers of OPR, Ralph Toussie. In this episode, you'll hear how Ralph had extreme leg speed from a very young age, but that it wasn't until his wife gifted him a Garmin that he shifted from workaholic-lawyer, to the man on a mission to break the three hour barrier. Ralph and I discuss his origin story in the sport, speak about the importance of goal setting, mentorship and role models, dive into his eight year marathon journey, and talk about the details of the run-commute. Outside of running, Ralph is a family man and takes it to heart to be well rounded in his career and other hobbies (ask him about his latest endeavors on the piano). Ralph is a well of running knowledge and is always glad to provide guidance, advice or mentorship. You can reach him on Instagram @ralphtoussie Below are a few of the resources Ralph and I discuss: 1. ChiRunning: A Revolutionary Approach to Effortless, Injury-Free Running by Danny Dreyer  2.

Why studies have associated NSAIDS with thromboembolic phenomena such as "heart attacks",kidney damage,and GI bleeds accounting for around 16,500 deaths each year... How NSAIDS actually impede cartilage repair and can cause cartilage loss... What about for athletes who are sore, or who want to be able to run while sore... would it be OK for them? After an injury, should an individual take a NSAID? If NSAID's are not advised, what are alternatives, and how do they work? During our interview, Dr. Roby Mitchell, mentions that one alternative for pain from inflammation  is Phenocane. Phenocane is a natural anti-inflammatory and COX2 inhibitor that relieves pain and eliminates inflammation without inhibiting COX1 development like aspirin does or causing many of the liver and stomach problems that ibuprofen and Advil do. In other words, it prevents the production of an enzyme which is bad for you without inhibiting the growth of one that is good for you. COX2 enzymes have long been thought to be one of the causes of cancer in the body and they are known to help sustain PGE1 (Prostaglandin) which is the secretion that causes inflammation and the pain that results from it. COX2 is an enzyme that protects the lining of the digestive tract and bloodstream.

Just call 1-877-209-9439 and leave a voicemail, leave a Skype voicemail to username "pacificfit", or e-mail ben@bengreenfieldfitness.com. Listener Tina asks: "I'm training for my second Ironman.  The run holds the most challenge for me with my lack of experience and GI issues.  I plan to use the Galloway method. My question is, what distance length vs.. walk time should I use.  Presently I've been training with run 1 mile / walk 2 minutes.  Is that reasonable? Should I always train the same distance vs. time on my long runs or should I change it?" Listener Autumn asks: "My partner and I are considering doing the hcg diet.  We have a great naturopath here in Oregon who will work with us.  However, she does not work with athletes very often, and we had a few fitness related questions.  We will be doing Reach the Beach (a century ride) on May 15th.  We are both very active, exercise regularly and eat very healthy foods.  This will be the third time we've done the ride.  We are worried about being able to train for it while doing hcg, and wonder if we should wait till after the ride to start the hcg protocol.  Also, how much exercise is ok to do while on the protocol?" Listener Corey asks, "I have a question regarding general nutrition, i am male, 36 and train for olympic distance triathlon around 15hrs per week, i don't eat fast food or heavily processed food and eat meat rarely,lots of beans and lentils hardly any vegetables, i eat a lot of bread (4x loaves a week) and cereal, i choose grain bread and a wheat based cereal with skim milk, i will have a protein shake with flaxseed oil daily and snack on pistachios and fruit, i always have lots of energy, sleep well and have no health issues and keep very low body fat percentages without trying and can lean down to my race weight in a week easily,my question is should i try and cut down carbohydrate intake and eat more veges and meat even though i have always eaten this way and doesn't seem to give me any problems and as mentioned energy levels, sleep etc are great." Listener Amy asks: "I am fairly new to Triathlons and I am looking to make a wetsuit purchase.  Do you recommend specific brands?  I recently tried on an Aquaman Cell Gold wetsuit that boasts of the #40 neoprene throughout the entire suit.  It is a higher priced wetsuit and I wanted to know if you felt it would be a good purchase.  Being new to the sport, I am not sure if it really matters if I have a top of the line suit and if it would make that much of a difference in my swim time." Listener Bret asks: "What exactly would you suggest using to fuel during my IM. I have been training with PowerGels, Perpetuem and ShotBloks. I noticed that your 2007 IM Kona, you used Perpetuem but then in 2008 you didn't…what changed? Also, the PowerGels by Powerbar have added sodium in them with the idea that you don't have to take salt tabs…do I need more sodium than is in a PowerGel?" Listener Casey asks: "I just read your article in Triathlete magazine on nutrition.  Good stuff!  I have heard a few times now that Omega 6 oils are a culprit for inflammation.  I often take the Udo's oil 3-6-9 blend.  I was wondering if the anti-inflammation properties of the 6 are somehow counteracted with the omega 3s.  Would I be better off simply taking a straight up flax oil or the like instead?  Incidentally Udo's 3-6-9 blend was also advertised in the same publication as your article.  Thanks in advance for the assistance. " During my response, I recommend Casey listens to Podcast #86... Listener Deb asks: "I know very little about bike power meters - except that they are ridiculously expensive. I've also recently heard of a power meter called an iBike - which is supposed to be very accurate and affordable. Because I know so little about power based training though, I'd love your opinion on the subject as well as your thoughts on the various products out there including the iBike." Lorenzo asks: "I was just talking to a buddy of mine that is an Ironman Triathlete and he suggested that I find a shoe that allows me to not wear any socks, what do you think?" Listener Katharine asks: "I  have a question about dates.  During half-marathons, I have eaten organic dates with tremendous results in energy and endurance.  I am training for my first ironman, and would love to use dates as a main source of food for the race, and they seem ideal to me - delicious, high in natural sugar, etc.  However, my coach is worried about their fiber content leading to gastric issues. I am wondering what your thoughts are on this, and if you have any advice on the topic. Also, do you advise eating sweet potatoes, etc., on the bike in some way?  If so, how would you go about that? (I totally never thought of doing that!)" Listener Cindy asks: "I have been trying to your Holistic Fueling plan. My problem is that I have extreme evening hunger. I have always been a big carb eater and my dinners would always be protein (chicken, fish or tofu), with a portion of veg (usually only 1/2 cup) and either rice, pasta or potatoes. Then I would have fruit about 1 hour later and sometimes a few crackers. Now for dinner I have protein (fish chicken or tofu) and lots of veg and/or salad. I just never seem to get full without the carbs. Tonight I had a good size piece of grilled salmon, about 1 cup of asparagus and a large salad (lettuce, cucumbers and carrots). One hour later, my stomach is growling and I feel like I haven't eaten a thing. I feel like I ate enough food through out the day: 6am - 1/2 cup applesauce and green tea followed by a 40 minute hard swim 7:30 - protein smoothie (vegan protein powder, 1 cup fruit and almond milk) and 1 egg 9:00 -  1 sprouted grain toast with peanut butter and coffee 12:00 - 1 sprouted grain toast with slice of turkey and cheese, carrots and celery with pb, 1/2 cup watermelon 3:00 - 1 apple, handful of almonds 6:00 - grilled salmon, 1 cup asparagus, large salad 7:30 - absolutely starving!!!!! I drink water throughout the day, take 1 acidopholus tablet in the morning on an empty stomach, 1 calcium and 1 magnesium and a fish oil supplement in the morning and at supper time. Is my body just in carb withdrawal? It's been about 2 weeks since I cut back on the evening carbs. I do feel better and have been sleeping better but I hate this evening hunger." In my response to Cindy, I recommend Mt. Capra Double Bonded Whey Protein or LivingProtein as two late night snack options...
