William Goodge is a British ultra-endurance athlete who just FKT'd his Australia crossing. In October, he runs 50 marathons in 50 states in 24 days. We get into the logistics, the strange polarity of a life spent between five-star hotels and the side of a trail, and what it's like to be doubted in public. Will is the most aura-farming, Goodge-coded ultra mog I could possibly imagine. Enjoy!

Entertainment and Thought Leaders Are Next.My playbook for human content creators / KOLs is:Focus on topics where being human matters:Taste and curation. What wine is better vs. what laptop is better.Irreversible and/or critical decisions. Situations where you can't do it over and judgement matters.There is an advancing frontier of knowledge. There is no existing online database of expertise. Think new AI tools, not history.Use a multi-format approach:Focus on building personal relationships. Such as in communities and events. Both online and offline.Make your content super authentic. Ideally videos instead of text or voice. Make it clear this is a human.Deploy an avatar army. Your solo content is not enough. You need an army creating content 24/7. This can be clones of yourself or similar personas.The mentioned photos are here. Disclosure.

"Running is just something that brings us all, it's a shared, it's something that's shared between all humans. And that's a beautiful thing" - Dean KarnazesListen to Dean's first appearance on Episode 26Step back with us to 2006 (20 years ago this month)Social media didn't exist. Ultrarunning was still a fringe obsession. And running one marathon was, for most people, the absolute edge of human endurance.This episode is sponsored by Thrive Protein | Canadian made supplements, nutrition, and hydration to fuel all your adventures. Check them out: Thrive Protein and use the code RUNEGADE to save 20% off your order.Comment your biggest takeaway from this conversation for a chance to win a special RUNEGADE prizeJust a few years earlier, on his 30th birthday, celebrating with friends, Dean Karnazes spontaneously left a San Fransisco bar and ran 30 miles through the night to Half Moon Bay - an experience that changed everything. Soon after, he quit his corporate job to fully chase his obsession with human potential. Into that world he stepped with a challenge that sounded impossible: 50 marathons in 50 days, in 50 different states.No one had done it. Many believed it couldn't be done. But over 50 straight days, from Missouri to New York City, Dean ran 1,310 miles, turned skepticism into awe, and helped spark the modern endurance movement.For longtime runners, this is a return to the moment the legend was born. For everyone discovering Dean for the first time - welcome. You're about to meet one of the most inspiring figures in running: a man fuelled by relentless curiosity, unbreakable discipline, and a deep belief in what's possible when you simply refuse to stop.We time travel and go back to 2006 to experience the energy, the doubt, and the magic of the Endurance 50 - straight from Dean himself.In this episode:What the running world felt like in 2006Dean's place as one of the first true endurance iconsThe story behind 50 marathons in 50 days across 50 statesWhy the feat felt almost impossible at the timeWhat motivated him to keep going when most people would have quitHow his story helped bring long-distance running into the mainstreamWhy new runners today still find inspiration in his journeyThe enduring power of grit, curiosity, and belief in the impossibleConnect and Find More Dean Here:Instagram: @ultramarathonFacebookDean's WebsiteUltramarathon Man: Confessions of an All Night Runner50 Marathons 50 DaysSave $$$ with RUNEGADE - friends of the podcast offering great savings to RUNEGADE listeners.Connect with Todd and Mark:Email: runegadepodcast@gmail.comTodd on Instagram: @altramarathonmanMark on Instagram: @runclemarkRUNEGADE on FacebookRUNEGADE on YouTube: @TheRUNEGADEPodcastTMPath Projects | our favourite running gear and apparel.

The other day, I was staring at my list of common Irregular Verbs, trying to think of a lesson I could create with 10 of them. Immediately, I saw some potential! Swing -> Swung, Fling -> Flung , Slide -> Slid. Somehow the clump of words I selected led me to one of the most bizarre stories I've ever heard about U.S. culture and history: Dance Marathons of the 1930s. Imagine people dancing for days on end, even sleeping while dancing, for the chance to win some cash. It's a crazy story, and I hope you enjoy it! In part one, you'll learn how to use the common expression “to keep someone on their toes,” you'll hear a joke, and you'll work on your American English pronunciation!

Ellie White's 40s did not go gently. A pandemic upended her life in London and moved her to the Sussex countryside. She fell in love with the idea of becoming a mother for the first time at 43, found out she was pregnant, and very sadly lost her son at 22 weeks. Less than a year later, she had a miscarriage. She saw a photo of herself on a hiking holiday in Switzerland and didn't recognize the woman looking back at her and knew she needed a change. She started running. She ran the London Marathon. She trained as a health coach. And somewhere in the middle of all of that, at a birthday lunch when she was 47, she ordered a mocktail instead of champagne, just to see what would happen. She's been alcohol-free since. Ellie is now a 5x certified coach specializing in wellness and alcohol-free living for women in midlife, and this conversation shows that a relationship with alcohol rarely changes in isolation. It changes when everything else is changing, when life has pushed you far enough that you finally stop and ask what you actually want. We talk about grief, midlife hormonal changes and why alcohol makes every single one of them worse, what reinvention actually looks like for the women Ellie works with, and what it meant to lose her dog Maddie six months ago while alcohol-free, and to actually be present for all of it. IN THIS EPISODE: Losing a son at 22 weeks, then a miscarriage less than a year later, and what those losses set in motion How grief became the catalyst for a complete life overhaul, including retraining, running, and eventually eliminating alcohol The birthday lunch decision at 47 that changed her life, and why she describes it as her rebel side showing up How alcohol interacts with perimenopause hormones, progesterone, estrogen, cortisol, and sleep in ways most women don't realize What two months alcohol-free has looked like for one of Ellie's current clients The woman who went on a walk on the beach instead of a pub garden and accidentally joined a mermaid sea swimming group What it was like to lose her dog Maddie while alcohol-free, and why she's grateful she was sober to drive her to the vet that night Find Ellie at elliewhitewellness.com and on Instagram @byelliewhite Join over 20,000 souls who tune into weekly newsletters on the competitive advantage you get alcohol-free.

Thank you!Check out Mount to Coast here: https://mounttocoast.com/discount/DistanceIn this special edition of Distance to Empty, Kevin and Peter sit down with Jen Novobilski, one of the runners featured in The Cutoff, the new film from Dylan Harris and Aravaipa Running.Jen's path to a 250-mile buckle started on a rainy day in Alaska in 2007, when she and a friend bailed on a hike and signed up for a half marathon instead — one minute running, one minute walking. Marathons turned into a 50-states goal, the pandemic turned that into her first 50-miler, and the company she kept did the rest.She talks about finding out mid-race that she'd be in a film (filmmaker Bradford caught her hugging her crew at the start and tracked her down at Crown King), and about only learning last week — from our episode with Jamil and Dylan — that the movie was really about the cutoff all along. Her first reaction was ego. Her second was admiration for how the crew handled it.We get into her 2025 Cocodona 250: roughly five hours of sleep across the whole race, no real dirt nap until past mile 200, hallucinations, a full head-to-toe clothing change in the downpour before Fain Ranch, and snow on Mingus that felt like home. (She did not bring rain pants. Who brings rain pants to the desert?)Jen also breaks down the Skydive Ultra — where the skydive itself counts against your cutoff — and previews her next big swing: the Iditarod Trail Invitational 150, starting days after this recording, with a kid's sled her nieces and nephew decorated and her grandmother sewed the zipper into.At 51, with a regular job and a regular life, her message is simple: if she can do it, so can a lot of other people.In this episode:Accidental ultrarunner: from mountaineering to a rainy-day half marathonAlaska running, sled pulling, and the Susitna 100The Skydive Ultra 100 — bacon, hallucinations, and losing two hours to the jumpGetting recruited into The Cutoff at mile 37The "observer effect" of running with a camera on youSleep deprivation, weather, and why the 2025 Cocodona was the hardest year yetWhy crew and pacers made the finish possibleEscalation, "normalizing Norman" friends, and what's actually being chasedWhat Jen hopes people take away from the film about the back of the pack

You can listen to this podcast here, which has the slides and graphics mentioned. Also available at iTunes and Google Podcasts.Here is the link to TechMoat Consulting.Here is the link to our Tech Tours.Here are my 5 questions (thus far) for assessing the viability of a specialty ecommerce company.Is the company sufficiently differentiated in the user experience?Can the company compete and/or differentiate in logistics or infrastructure without ongoing spending?Does the company have a strong competitive advantage in a circumscribed market? NoIs there a clear path to significant operational cash flow?Has the company avoided markets and situations that are attractive or strategic for the major ecommerce companies?I spoke about this in a past podcast. Early Etsy Was a Great Example of Specialty Ecommerce. But Things Are Changing. (1 of 3) (Tech Strategy)The future of Shein depends on what business you think Shein is in:Connecting China manufacturers with foreign consumers. China manufacturing gets you low cost and big variety. Ultra fast fashion.This is about speed and flexible production. Test, learn, restock.Digital-first fashion.

This week, I'm back in my own space after a whirlwind of travel, and I'm reflecting on what it means to find stability when everything seems to change at lightning speed. From airport delays to marathon mountain climbs, this episode dives deep into the unexpected twists that life throws our way, and how a steady, guiding presence can make all the difference.At the center of our conversation is Elder Holmes' talk, “Jesus Christ Is the Way.” I share a personal story about my friend CJ, who is blind, and the remarkable systems and support (including a sighted guide) that allow him to navigate life's challenges. But what if Christ isn't just the guide—what if He's actually the path itself? This idea has me asking how we lean into His support and access the comfort and assurance only He can offer, especially when plans fall apart. I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences—how do you hold onto your Guide when life takes an unexpected turn?Join me as we unpack these questions, and let's keep moving forward, holding on to the Savior who's more than a guide—He's the very way through every mountain and marathon we face.Please share this episode with someone who needs to hear it.

Et si courir des milliers de kilomètres dans des déserts brûlants ou sur des étendues de glace n'était pas tant une quête de dépassement de soi qu'une façon de retisser du lien avec soi, avec les autres, avec le monde ?Dans cet épisode, j'ai eu la joie de recevoir Malek Boukerchi, ultra-marathonien de l'extrême, mais aussi “tisseur de rêves”, anthropologue du lien et fondateur des 42, une association qui emmène des jeunes des quartiers, souvent éloignés du sport ou de l'emploi, sur la ligne de départ de marathons mythiques pour retrouver confiance en eux et dans la vie. Dans un échange dense, intense et poétique, Malek déploie une vision magistrale : et si nous étions libre de rêver notre avenir, quelque soit nos origines et nos déterminismes ? Et si le rêve se conquierait par la volonté et l'effort ? Et si la rencontre était au coeur de toutes les bifurcations ? Et si les jeunes avaient surtout besoin qu'on les aide à croire en eux ? C'est un épisode magistral, qui nous portera tout l'été. Dans cet extrait, Malek nous parle du pouvoir des rêves. Lui qui a grandi dans les quartiers de Mulhouse, a osé rêver grand et croire dans ses capacités. Qui aurait pu imaginer qu'il traverserait tant de déserts et rencontrerait tant de peuples autochtones ? Il nous partage un adage berbère qui dit : "un homme ou une femme sans rêve, c'est comme un oiseau sans ailes. Il tombe."Il nous appelle à ne pas nous laisser définir par les circonstances de la vie et à ne jamais nous résigner. A nous ouvrir à d'autres possibles et à laisser nos rêves prendre forme. A nous entourer d'hommes et de femmes qui nous aident à croire dans nos possibles. A faire les choix nécessaires."Si tu as la tête adaptable, l'esprit droit, le cœur généreux et l'âme passionnée, tu as tout pour réussir et croire en tes rêves. Il suffit juste d'un peu de persévérance. Voilà la clé de la réussite. La persévérance."Un épisode qui inspire, bouscule et réenchante. Dire qu'il va vous falloir attendre jusqu'à demain pour l'épisode complet ! Je vous souhaite une belle écoute avec MalekDemain N'attend Pas est un podcast indépendant créé et animé par Delphine Darmon.Toutes les 2 semaines, j'échange avec des personnalités inspirantes pour questionner les récits qui façonnent notre monde, et ouvrir des pistes concrètes de futurs plus désirables.
Lantz sits down with longtime friend Lyle Wells, president of Integris Leadership and a veteran executive coach who spends his days serving senior pastors, global nonprofit leaders, and CEOs. Lyle has been fired twice, coached college basketball, trained for ministry without the Greek and Hebrew, and been married to his wife Rhonda for nearly 37 years — and he brings all of it into a conversation about why leadership was never meant to be a marathon.The conversation moves from date nights and daily diversions to burnout, identity, and what it really means to hold your purpose tightly while holding your position loosely. Lyle unpacks the four roles he plays in every coaching relationship, why 80% of the leaders who call him are "stuck" rather than "struggling," and how uniqueness and eliteness can restore a leader's sense of aliveness. It's a conversation about rhythm — going out and coming in — and why ending well matters as much as starting well.Key Quotes"Life is a series of sprints, not marathons.""My tank is my responsibility. It's not my wife's job to fill it, and it's not my elders' job either.""Hold your purpose tightly. Choke the heck out of that thing. But hold your positions loosely.""We're really good at starting things. We're usually really bad at ending them — and ending well is just as important as starting well.""Struggling means we're wrestling. Stuck means hope is being lost.""Leadership is never meant to be harvested. It's only meant to be multiplied.""If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you."--Coach Lantz Howard www.lantzhoward.comDownload Champion Husband Playbook: How to have More Peace, Passion, and Power in Your Marriage www.championhusband.com

Mit 34 ließ ich meinen Testosteronwert messen – mein damals 69-jähriger Vater gleich mit. Sein Ergebnis: dreimal so hoch wie meins. Ich: 16 Jahre Krafttraining, 17 Marathons. Er: Rentner ohne Leistungssport. Acht Wochen später hatte sich mein Wert fast versechsfacht – ohne Medikamente, ohne Wundermittel. Der Hebel, den ich jahrelang ignoriert hatte: Schlaf. Gemerkt habe ich davon lange nichts – mein „Passt schon“ war ein mieser Ratgeber.In der neuen Folge erfährst Du die ganze Geschichte. Ungeschönt, und inklusive der Einordnung, warum mein Fall kein Naturgesetz ist. Du bekommst außerdem sechs Fragen an die Hand, mit denen Du Deinen Schlaf innerhalb von 14 Tagen verbesserst, ohne dass Du Geräte oder sonstigen Hokuspokus anschaffen musst.____________*WERBUNG: Infos zum Werbepartner dieser Folge und allen weiteren Werbepartnern findest Du hier.____________ERWÄHNT IN DIESER FOLGE (Werbung)

Everything except chips.Founded and run by Huawei executives. Moving very fast.A good strategy. It appears similar to Huawei.AgiBot's strategy is to flood the market with affordable humanoids while growing the entire ecosystem with open datasets and open models. They are scaling fast in manufacturing, usage and training.They mass-produce the hardware at scale so thousands of identical robots can collect real-world data in homes and factories.At the same time they open-source the entire stack: the million-trajectory AgiBot World dataset, the GO-1 foundation model, the training tools, and the GenieSim simulation twin—so researchers and developers can build skills and applications on top without paying anything.AgiBot's affordable humanoid platform as infrastructure. Hardware sales and ecosystem services become the revenue, not software licensing.Now in the top 1-2 in humanoid sales.AgiBot shipped approximately 5168 humanoid units in 2025. ---------I am a consultant & keynote speaker on how to increase digital growth and strengthen digital AI moats.I am the founder of TechMoat Consulting, a consulting firm specialized in increasing digital growth and strengthening digital AI moats.

Trevor Giampa doesn't call himself the best hybrid athlete — he says there's no such competition. He just refuses to accept the idea that chasing a goal in the gym has to cost him a goal on the course.In this episode of The Running Effect Podcast, Dominic sits down with Trevor to unpack six years of all-out hybrid training and the results that have people convinced he must be cheating: a 2:28 Boston Marathon and a 315-pound bench in the same week, treadmill marathons followed by 15+ reps at 225, and 100-mile weeks paired with powerlifter-style strength work.Trevor makes the case that "hybrid athlete = mediocre at both" is a myth, that antagonistic goals aren't really antagonistic if you build for them, and that your genetics improve the harder and longer you work. He's done it all as a natural athlete who has never had a sip of coffee, a drink of alcohol, or a single PED — and he explains why the constant doping accusations only fuel his mission to show people what a natural body is capable of.They also get into his diet (max protein, max carbs, ground beef and rice, venison, kiwis for vitamin C), his recovery philosophy (build a bigger capacity, skip the gadgets), his gym split, the caffeine debate, his move into ultras, and how his Catholic faith became the center of his content and his goals. 00:00 — Welcome & the late-night recording sacrifice00:36 — How Trevor defines a "hybrid athlete"01:05 — Real hybrid athlete vs. chasing social media clout02:11 — Nick Bear, the BPN community, and breaking the "mediocre at both" stereotype04:28 — His most impressive feat: 2:28 Boston Marathon + 315 bench in the same week05:13 — What's harder, running or lifting?

Recording from Beijing International Airport during a delayed Air China flight, I share a short, single-topic episode exploring the "speed gap" and why pure speed can be a major limiter for marathon and half-marathon performance. Using examples such as breaking three hours in the marathon and my own goal of running 2:19, I explain why runners need enough speed at shorter distances to make marathon pace feel sustainable. I also discuss why many runners and coaches place too much emphasis on mileage and threshold training while neglecting speed development. I finish the episode by sharing three practical ways to improve speed without dramatically changing your training: short max-effort hill sprints, regular strides after easy runs, and strength training focused on squats, hamstrings and calves.

It's a collective pacing strategy dictated by physiology, not just tactics. Plus VAR is amplifying the chaos rather than ending it (Argentina's late smash-and-grab over Egypt, a sensor in the ball denying Croatia), and six African teams knocked out in the dying minutes.(00:28:00) Tour de France: our first read on the opening stages, and why the new team time trial format, where the rider's individual time counted, added genuine tactical intrigue.(00:31:00) The story that troubled us most: riders starting stages very sick in 40°C heat. After De Lie and Uijtdebroeks pushed on while ill, we discuss the incentives in elite high performance sport that put team doctors is unenviable and often compromised positions, and whether, as with concussion in rugby, sports governing bodies should step in to alleviate the conflicts faced by medics?(00:39:00) The science of pre-cooling: why INEOS sat in a row with their forearms in cold water. Ross explains the AVAs, the skin's heat-dumping shortcut, and why the water mustn't be too cold or you shut the whole thing down.(00:53:00) Record watch: Josh Kerr's unusual race-free build-up and his 3:42 fixation, Keely Hodgkinson's choppy season, and Faith Kipyegon's first 1500m/mile defeat in five years.(00:58:00) A cracking paper spotted by listener Steve O'Hale: 870,000 Berlin finishers show men are twice as likely to hit the wall as women. And, counter-intuitively, the faster the men, the more likely they are to blow up, relative to women. Ego or physiology? We dig in.(01:08:00) And finally: a 10-year-old tennis prodigy, homeschooled and training seven days a week. A feel-good story, or early specialisation and survivorship bias dressed up as one?
