This week we're joined by the brilliant Olly Brown, who opens up about his family's experience of miscarriage and the arrival of his daughter afterwards. Olly talks honestly about the devastation of loss, the ripple effect it has on partners, and why community support can make all the difference when you're navigating grief.As if that wasn't inspiring enough, Ollie's taking on a frankly bonkers challenge: 39 marathons in 39 weeks (yep, you read that right!) to raise awareness and vital funds for miscarriage support. Naturally, this led to Bex blurting out-on record-that she'll lace up her trainers and take on another marathon too. No backing out now, Bex… it's in the episode forever.We chat about why miscarriage is still such a taboo subject, how damaging the silence can be, and why acknowledging past losses matters even when you're holding new life in your arms.It's a moving, uplifting, and at times slightly chaotic conversation (thanks to the marathon madness) that reminds us just how much power there is in sharing stories.Takeaways:Miscarriage affects both parents, but partners are too often overlooked.Community support is everything when you're living with loss.Talking openly helps smash the stigma and myths that surround miscarriage.Acknowledging past babies doesn't take away from future ones—it honours them.Olly's 39 marathons are creating a space for stories, solidarity, and awareness.Oh, and apparently Bex is running a marathon now too (send snacks and supportive memes).We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation. We're all about bringing people together who are going through the tough stuff — baby loss, infertility, and everything in between — and making sure no one has to face it alone. Our community is full of honesty, compassion, and real talk, offering support, understanding, and hope when it's needed most.

In this episode of the Tough Girl Podcast, I'm joined by the incredible Julie Weiss — also known as The Marathon Goddess. Julie's story is one of resilience, healing, and purpose. After losing her father to pancreatic cancer, she set out on an extraordinary mission: to run 52 marathons in 52 weeks, raising awareness and funds for pancreatic cancer research along the way. Her journey captured hearts around the world — from the Today Show and O Magazine to countless finish lines across the US. But behind the medals and media attention is a woman who found strength, joy, and hope through running. Now in her fifties, Julie has completed over 118 marathons, raised more than $1 million for research, and continues to inspire others with her message that it's never too late to chase your dreams, honour your loved ones, and find purpose in every step. In this conversation, Julie opens up about:  How running helped her heal from grief and depression  The challenges and triumphs of running 52 marathons in 52 weeks  What it takes to stay motivated and injury-free through massive goals  Her empowering “7 C's to Defy Your Limits” — Create, Certainty, Connect, Commit, Consistent, Cause, and Courage Julie's story is a beautiful reminder that transformation begins with one small step — and that every mile can make a difference.  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

Justine, your host, is running for the entire podcast. But this isn't just a simple run—it's The Trivia Treadmill Torture, a chaotic game designed by one half of the podcast duo who also happen to be trivia hosts at various pubs around town.The rules are simple: Justine must start running at a 3 mph brisk walk pace. Every trivia question she gets wrong, she must increase her speed. Her only hope for survival is to answer the questions correctly!  Listen as Justine navigates four categories—Marathons, Miscellaneous, Music, and Twilight! Will knowing that a half marathon was once run backwards in under an hour and 40 minutes or correctly identifying a "negative split" save her from a grueling pace? Or will Kylie's questions about the original enemies of the ancient Greeks, or the unexpected alcoholic fuel of choice for Victorian runners force her to speed up?Tune in to find out if Justine survives this hilarious, pace-changing chaos, or if the final, random question about the top speed of a spider monkey pushes her past her breaking point right before the cooldown. This is high-stakes trivia where every wrong answer brings you closer to sprinting!Support the showRunningScaredMedia.comVisit our shop to purchase our jogcasts and other merchEmail us at: therunningscaredpodcast@gmail.comFollow us:Instagram @runningscaredmediaJoin our FB Running Group

From new driver's licenses to marathon training, we share family updates alongside deeper reflections on advocacy, trans rights, and why a simple message like “You Are Loved” matters more than ever.In this episode, we catch up on big life updates—from teenagers getting their driver's licenses to the final stretch of marathon training. But woven through these everyday milestones are deeper conversations about what it means to parent, advocate, and show up for transgender youth.We share the relief of seeing correct gender markers affirmed on official documents, the bittersweet transition of kids gaining independence, and the courage it takes to wear a message as simple—and as controversial—as “You Are Loved.”Along the way, we talk about the troubling rhetoric labeling transgender people and their advocates as dangerous, and why visibility and allyship matter now more than ever.If you're taking something away from our podcast, we'd appreciate it if you'd take a moment to provide us with a review; the more listeners and reviews, the more people we can reach and support.

Got feedback about this episode? Send Carolyn a textWhen runners talk about “bucket-list marathons,” the conversation almost always begins — and ends — with the Abbott World Marathon Majors: Boston, New York, Chicago, Berlin, London, Tokyo, and Sydney. But here's the truth: some of the fastest, most historic, and most enjoyable marathons in the world aren't Majors at all.In this episode, I'm joined by my older brother, Kevin Beatty — a 2:21 marathoner & cross country coach at Loyalist College — to shine a light on excellent marathons beyond the Majors that deserve your attention.Kevin brings both historical perspective and recent experience, having run between 2:35–2:40 at races like Houston, CIM, and Grandma's in his late 40s. Together we cover:✨ How the World Marathon Majors came to be — and why “Major” doesn't always mean fastest or most prestigious✨ The hidden challenges of racing the Majors (logistics, late start times, athlete area waits)✨ International marathons worth traveling for — from historic courses like Athens and Fukuoka to PR factories like Valencia and Seville✨ U.S. “shadow majors” such as CIM, Grandma's, Houston, and Honolulu✨ Canadian favorites region by region, plus hidden gems like Petit Train and Georgina✨ Why boutique marathons like Erie, PA or Queen City can give runners double BQ opportunities✨ New models like The Marathon Project and McKirdy Micro MarathonIf you've ever felt like the World Majors were the only marathons that mattered, this conversation might just expand your horizons — and your race calendar.Kevin's previous episodes on Inspired Soles:Ep 3 | Treating Running Like a Sport Ep 78 | Pacer for Carolyn's Las Vegas 10k Win Ep 176 | US Olympic Marathon Trials RecapConnect with Carolyn & Inspired Soles:Instagram: @inspiredsolescast or @carolyn.c.coffinBrowse 250+ episodes in the archivesSubscribe, rate & review to support the showYou can help spread the running love!

So our journey this episode takes us to a recital, where Amos and Edda get a less than glowing review from a critic. They are SO BAD at taking any amount of criticism that they go onstage the next night to flip the critic off. Oh wait! Yeah. In this world, Amos and Edda have a multi-night engagement AND the critic comes to EVERY performance AND writes about every performance. Just like in real life! So Amos flips off the audience (as a way of showing the audience that he disapproves of the critic's take) and Edda joins him. Then there's a reaction to THAT reaction, which also rubs Amos and Edda the wrong way. Because why wouldn't they be anything but, as they admit, childish, vindictive and ridiculous? There's a brief Sunday strip sidebar about how a bunch of scientists ask Amos to ask Edda how she keeps her boobs in her dress. I wish we were kidding about this, but no, this is REALLY what the Sunday strip is about. Then we return to the critic storyline where the critic shows up for a THIRD STRAIGHT performance to explain himself to Edda. She takes it well, and by that I mean she threatens to make him strip naked and dance in front of the audience. But only for the first 100 attendees. Yeah. It made zero sense to us either.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITEvery Friday brings a chance to reflect on the week's most thought-provoking stories, and this episode doesn't disappoint. While driving to work with "Carol" by the Rolling Stones playing, I found myself wondering about other songs featuring women's names - a simple question that sparked the day's first contemplation.The news cycle delivered its usual mix of disturbing and absurd this week. We follow up on the investigation of a rapper whose Tesla contained the remains of a teenage runaway. Though not named as a suspect, he's reportedly vacated his $4 million Hollywood Hills rental after police searched the property. Meanwhile, Oklahoma's education department has announced a controversial plan to mandate Turning Point USA chapters in every high school statewide, threatening to revoke accreditation from schools that don't comply. This raises serious questions about the appropriate boundaries between education, politics, and activism in our school systems.Perhaps most bizarre was tennis star Serena Williams' social media post expressing discomfort over cotton plants used as hotel decor, visibly shuddering at the sight despite cotton's ubiquity in everyday products from clothing to bedding. It highlights how easily performative outrage can overshadow more meaningful conversations about substantive issues.As we head into the weekend, I'm looking forward to continuing our family movie marathon tradition with Batman films and catching some college football. These small pleasures provide balance in a world often dominated by troubling headlines. What songs with women's names do you love? And where do you stand on mandating political clubs in schools?

TRIGGER WARNINGThis episode contains a reference to suicidal thoughts, which you may find distressing, so please listen with care.In this powerful episode, we hear the remarkable story of a man who turned years of bullying into fuel for resilience and achievement.Ben shares how relentless bullying at school - much of it focused on the way he ran - left him feeling isolated, stripped of confidence, and battling despair. What started as taunts from a friend escalated into years of cruelty that shaped his teenage and early adult life. He opens up about the loneliness, the long shadow it cast on his identity, and the moments when he nearly lost hope.But this is not just a story of struggle; it's one of extraordinary transformation. Running, once the very thing he was mocked for, became the anchor that rebuilt his confidence, relationships, and sense of self. From completing his first marathon to conquering seven marathons in seven days across seven countries, Ben has shown that the very source of pain can be turned into strength.You'll learn from Ben:The long-term emotional impact bullying can have and how it can follow someone into adulthood.Why finding one source of confidence (however small) can be life-changing.How running gave Ben not just purpose, but a platform to inspire others and raise money for children's mental health services.What resilience looks like in practice: persistence, self-belief, and transforming ridicule into fuel.This is an inspiring, deeply human conversation about struggle, survival, and ultimately, the triumph of spirit.You can find out more about Jack's amazing achievement and the Sheffield Children's Hospital Charity, on his JustGiving page ‘7 Marathons in 7 Days for Bright Young Dream'.If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, there are organisations you can call now for example, in the UK, you can call the Samaritans on 116 123, and if you are in the US, you can call the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and in Australia call Lifeline on 13 11 14.As always, the advice is to speak to a GP or mental health professional.

What does it take to run around the entire world? In this episode, Richard sits down with Marie Leautey, a French ultra-endurance runner who became the fastest woman — and only the second woman in history — to complete a run around the Earth. Marie recently released her book Lootie's World Run, sharing her incredible 700+ marathon journey across continents. Marie's story is one of resilience, perseverance, and the pursuit of impossible goals. She explains how she broke down the monumental task into manageable steps, how running connected her to cultures and landscapes most tourists never see, and why the journey was as much about mindset as it was about mileage. This episode is a must-listen for anyone facing a challenge that feels out of reach — because if Marie can run around the world, what might be possible for you?

This week, we discussed a few different things happening in the endurance sporting world, and as usual, we offered our takes on them. We started by talking about the men's and women's marathons at the World Championship, both of which ended in sprint finishes! We went on to discuss the unfortunate recent doping positive of UTMB OCC winner Joyline Chepngeno, considering why and how it may have happened in light of what we have learned about doping culture in Kenya. We talked a bit about Kilan Jornet's latest adventure--a massive undertaking in which he's climbing all 67 14,000-foot peaks in the United States and cycling between them. And finally, we talked about Jeff Garmire's experience on the Appalachian Trail, where he is on the verge of setting a new FKT for a self-supported traverse.

At age 55, Belgian runner Hilde Dosogne set out to break boundaries — and did just that.  In 2024, she ran 366 marathons in 366 days, earning her the title of Guinness World Record holder for most consecutive marathons in a year.  What makes Hilde's journey so extraordinary is not just the distance she covered, but the relentless dedication she showed while working part-time and managing her daily life with laser-focused discipline. Known as Marathon Woman 366, Hilde didn't grow up in a sporty family. In fact, she didn't seriously take up running until her 40s. But once she did, she never looked back — moving from her first marathon with her husband in 2013 to ultra events like the Marathon des Sables and the legendary Spartathlon in Greece. Inspired by endurance runner Candice Burt, who ran an ultra a day, Hilde set a goal that was bold yet (just) manageable alongside her career — a marathon every single day for an entire year.  From battling injuries and illness, to running through Belgian storms and even dislocating a finger mid-run, Hilde's story is one of mental toughness, resilience, and unwavering self-belief. In this episode, Hilde shares: Why she decided to take on this incredible challenge How she structured her days and managed recovery The highs and lows of running every single day The mental strategies that helped her keep going Her thoughts on aging, performance, and redefining what's possible at 55 The deep sense of joy and freedom she finds in running Hilde's story is a reminder that it's never too late to start something extraordinary — and that the only limits are the ones we place on ourselves.  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM UK time. Subscribe and be inspired by stories of women pushing their physical and mental limits across adventure, endurance, and exploration.  Support the mission to increase the visibility of female role models in adventure and sport: www.patreon.com/toughgirlpodcast Show notes Who is Hilde Living in Belgium 55 years old Married with 4 children aged between 18 and 26 years old Working in a chemical company and being passionate about running Being known as Marathon Woman 366 Not growing up in a sporty family and not being encouraged to do sports when she was younger Getting into running after her children were growing up  Being focused on building up her career and raising her children  Reaching 40 years old and wanting to lose some weight and deciding to run a marathon with her husband in 2013 How her running progressed and wanting to run more marathons and then wanting to run faster and then further Getting a lot of satisfaction from achieving her goals and pushing her limits Deciding to run the coastline of Belgium - 74km Wanting to know what else she could do  Deciding to run the Marathon des Sables in Morocco  Struggling with sleep in the open tent, and dealing with the sandstorm and the noisy people in the tent Running Spartathlon Ultra Race  Running from Athens to Sparta - having 36 hrs to complete the race  Needing to qualify for the Spartathlon Running 170km in 24 hrs in 2022 Running the race again in 2023 and running 1 hr faster than the year before Being inspired by Candice Burt running an ultra marathon everyday  Realising that running an ultra marathon a day would take up too much time everyday Deciding to run a marathon everyday and break a world record  Feeling that running a marathon everyday would be achievable while working at the same time Starting to plan for the event in summer 2024 - wanting to run with other people  Applying to Guinness World Records and figuring out the logistics for evidence  The time commitment involved and trying to run with other people  Being commitment to the hours she was running  The hard days, especially when she was feeling sick  Dealing with stomach pain and covid.  Falling while running and dislocating her finger  Dealing with bad weather especially at the start of the year  Struggling with her sleep and feeling too excited from the running both physically and emotionally  Sleeping during her lunch break Needing to have her days very strictly scheduled  The time commitment of running, social media and the info for Guinness World Records The mindset of taking on a daily challenge like this Her resilience coming from having a strict childhood and being very disciplined Seeing her running as a job  Feeling gratitude for while she was running  Raising funds for breast cancer patients  Being supported by the people who ran with her and also supported via social media  Daily recovery strategies - having a recovery shake, baths, stretching and a massage 1x per week Being supported by her husband in the house  Getting to the end of 366 marathons Running the last week in pain, due to a hamstring injury  Preparing an event for the last day Her body was telling her to stop running  Stopping running on the 1st January 2025  Feeling very happy that it was over! Getting back into running/walking 10 days later  Wanting to do the Spartathlon for the 3rd time Becoming the 24hrs running Belgium Champion  Listening to podcasts and music to pass the time Not experiencing many affects from perimenopause and menopause  Nutrition and fuelling while running a marathon everyday  Which is harder running a fast 5k or running a longer distance? Stretching, foam rolling, core stability exercises and bike riding The biggest lessons learned from taking on this challenge Why the human body can do much more than what we think Doing this challenge at 55 years old Running an average time of 4hrs 5 mins for each marathon Why you can start running at any age Training for the Spartathlon 2025 with a running coach  Running coach Benny Fisher   How to connect with Hilde on line Words of advice for runners The mind is stronger than the body If you think you can't anymore, you have to think you can do it. Even if you are at a low point in a race. You need to know that it can get better. Why the only reason to stop is if you have a serious injury. Believe that it can get better Think about how you will feel when you give up  Think about the people that support you and they will be very happy that you finish and disappointed if you don't Do it for a charity, so you know you are not only doing it for yourself.  You have to be strong psychically and mentally Prepare yourself for the difficult moments in the race and think through all the different scenarios that could happen   Social Media Website: www.hildedosogne.be/en  Instagram: @marathonwoman366/  Facebook: @marathonwoman.2024  Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/51029211

Have you ever looked at someone who's done something so extraordinary that you thought, “I could never do that”? What if you could, and it simply meant changing the way you think?In this episode of the Visibly Fit Podcast, I sit down with Joe Gagnon, a man who has proven that what seems impossible is often just the beginning. At age 39, Joe was not an athlete. But he decided to make a change. That choice led him to run six marathons in six days on six continents, complete multiple Ironman races, and even finish the grueling Badwater 135 ultra-marathon across Death Valley.Joe shares how he reframed challenges, leaned into discomfort, and discovered the power of living with intention. His story is proof that it's never too late to start fresh, to rewrite your narrative, and to push past self-imposed limits.If you've ever felt stuck, too old to start, or overwhelmed by the thought of change, Joe's wisdom will encourage you to take one intentional step at a time toward the extraordinary life God designed for you.Chapters:[00:00] Podcast Preview[01:15] Topic and Guest Introduction[03:32] Introduction to Joe Gagnon and His Journey[06:36] The Breakout: From Average to Athlete[08:18] The Marathon Challenge: Six Marathons in Six Days[11:30] Why Self-Care Must Come First[14:24] The Power of Mindset in Pushing Limits[18:22] Finding Your Why: The Importance of Purpose[23:32] The Five Pillars of a High-Performance Life[27:58] Embracing Discomfort and Reframing Life's Challenges[28:40] The Journey to Plant-Based Living[31:47] Understanding Personal Choices and Their Impact[36:00] Taking the First Step Towards Change[38:03] Building a Success Plan and Celebrating Progress[41:17] Curiosity and Lifelong Learning[43:41] Where to Find Joe's Book Living Intentionally[45:17] Fun Family Traditions & Giving Back[47:08] Final Thoughts and ResourcesResources mentioned:Book: Living Intentionally by Joe GagnonEmail: jgagnon232@gmail.comDaily Blog: joecurious.substack.comWebsite: thehighperformancelife.netInstagram: @thehighperformancelifeLinkedIn: Joe Gagnon on LinkedInVisibly Fit 7-Week Accelerator ProgramConnect with today's guest:Joe Gagnon is a CEO, high-performance coach, endurance athlete, and author of Living Intentionally.

Have you ever been lucky enough to get into two major marathons in one season, like Sydney and Chicago or Berlin and New York? It's a great problem to have, but it presents a unique challenge: how do you train for and race both?On this episode, I'm joined by running coach Chris Knighton, who shares his expert advice on tackling this marathon double. We discuss the A-Race and B-Race strategy, the importance of prioritizing recovery, and the mental and physical considerations of running two marathons within just a few weeks of each other. Coach Knighton also gives his perspective on why dropping out of a race can sometimes be the smartest move and the best ways to deal with jet lag and recovery.Whether you're doubling up on races or just looking to improve your recovery game, this episode is packed with valuable insights you won't want to miss.Guest Info: ⁠https://www.instagram.com⁠/knightonruns If you enjoyed this type of information, please consider subscribing to our channel for more race recaps,  running news, running shoe reviews, and more! We are now on YOUTUBE: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Lettyruns⁠·  Our website: ⁠www.marathonmedia.us⁠ ·  Our Instagram: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/runningpodcast/⁠ ·  Our Amazon Storefront: ⁠⁠https://www.amazon.com/shop/runningpodcast⁠·  Join our Facebook group: ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/speedstriders/⁠ ·  Youtube ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@RunningPodcast⁠ Discount Codes for Runners: ⁠https://www.runswag.com⁠

Follow and share - https://www.instagram.com/ultrauncoveredpodcast/In this episode of Ultra Uncovered, we go deep on one of the most iconic—and punishing—mountain races in the world: the Pikes Peak Marathon and Ascent. We're joined by Colorado Springs local and multi-time champion Kristina Mascarenas, whose deep love for this mountain (and her decent record) makes her the perfect co-host to help us break it all down. From the relentless W's to the infamous Golden Stairs, we dissect every section of the course and share practical advice for tackling the climb, prepping for high-altitude conditions, handling the mental grind, and navigating gear and etiquette on race day. Kristina also shares her unique journey into the sport—how a challenge from her brother pulled her off the couch and onto the mountain, and how she's rebounded from not one, but two major ankle injuries to keep chasing her best performances.We also dive into the history and legends of America's Mountain, from Matt Carpenter's still-unbreakable 1993 record to the rise of Remi Bonnet, Maude Mathys, and other international stars. Kristina gives us insider tips on how to race the decent (pro tip: don't step on anything that might roll), what to expect in terms of trail conditions and weather, and why emotional readiness is just as important as physical training. Whether you're gunning for a golden hour finish or just hoping to cross that line, this one's packed with insight, lore, and plenty of laughs—including a few “Uncle Rick” gems and a call for Jim Walmsley to please come race Pikes.

Round two with speaker/author Luke Kennedy gets raw on fatherhood, faith, leadership, and testing yourself. Luke opens up about a whirlwind two years—marriage, 50-acre homestead, and the birth of his daughter—plus the moment he stepped out of new-age spirituality and into Christianity. We unpack building a values-first marriage (no intimacy before the wedding), witnessing the power of birth, and why “you're only as good as your last nappy change.” Luke breaks down his Running for Eternity campaign: a marathon a day for 21 days from Coolangatta to Cronulla to save a small-town church. We jam on identity shifts, ego vs intention, leading your family, and why men need rites of passage like boxing. I also share my own season—breakup, faith, getting back in the ring—and the commitment to live for your family, not just die for them.Timestamps00:00 – Introductions & life update: Round two, fatherhood, name meaning (Annaya), whirlwind two years.01:20 – Values-first dating to marriage: No intimacy before wedding; building on faith and aligned vision.06:58 – Becoming parents: Home birth, resilience, awe for his wife, lessons from labour.08:52 – Faith journey: From new age/psychedelics to Christianity; encounters, spiritual warfare, reading the Bible.16:11 – Prayer, patience & changed desires: Trusting God, family-first focus.17:03 – Early dad lessons: Protection instincts, overthinking, presence at home.19:01 – “Only as good as your last nappy change”: Complacency checks & doing hard things.22:09 – Finding the next challenge: Goggin(s), Haynes, Brockman inspiration; hip replacement excuses.24:32 – Running for Eternity: Marathon-a-day plan to fund a local church; coaching, mobility, training.25:06 – Identity shift: Moving beyond the “old story” into father, leader, community man.29:03 – Coach's lesson: “My job is to get you to the start line” — managing injury risk.30:42 – Head noise & purpose: Guilt, ego, Christmas miles, keeping the cause bigger than self.36:05 – Nick's marathon & first boxing fight: Process, mindset, camaraderie.40:23 – Nick's rebuild: Breakup, journaling, childhood roots, integrity, voice, boundaries.47:02 – Masculine leadership at home: Order, protection, one-flesh vows, communication with your wife.53:09 – Faith coming back & homestead dreams: God–father–mother–kids.54:08 – Commitments: I'll join a leg of the run; iron sharpens iron.55:49 – Are you “ready” for fatherhood?: Presence over perfection, priorities at home.59:22 – Live for your family: Not just die for them—lead by example.Follow Luke: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lukeskennedy/FOLLOW ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nickbetarofficial/Sponsors: Betar Media: https://www.instagram.com/betarmedia/

So you don't cannibalize products by bundling.Bundling can complicate the customer experience and buying journey.Bundling works best when all customers have similar total willingness to pay. But different tastes.Unlimited bundles (subscriptions) can have problems if there are non-zero product costs.Unlimited bundles (subscriptions) do limit revenue per user. This is a problem when willingness to pay is positively correlated with demand for variety.Subscription models do not reward superstar creators very well. ----------I am a consultant and keynote speaker on how to accelerate growth with improving customer experiences (CX) and digital moats.I am a partner at TechMoat Consulting, a consulting firm specialized in how to increase growth with improved customer experiences (CX), personalization and other types of customer value.

A conversation with Dean Karnazes, ultra-marathon runner, and author. Among many accomplishmentes he holds the record for the longest continuous run of 350 miles in 80 hours and 44 minutes without sleep, and winner of the Badwater 135 milre run in Death Valley California. His first book, Ultramarathon Man: Confessions of an All-Night Runner, details his ultra endurance running origins and accomplishments. He's since written 4 more books including 50/50 which details the secrets he's learned in running 50 marathons in 50 states, in 50 days.We talk about his origin story and the books he's written about running. We discuss his running accomplishments including the 350 mile consecutive run, Badwater and the 50 marathons in 50 states in 50 days.We have an exhange about the boom we've seen in marathon running over the last 5-10 years and I get Dean's perspective on what's fueling it.We talk about the often oversold adverse effects of running and whether or not he's experienced any of them in the 30 years of running long distance.We talk about what he's doing now, what he's doing next, and what he's doing with Greek Running Tours.Finally I ask Dean about his legacy and whether or not he thinks about his place in the annals of ultra marathon running.About Dean Karnazes https://ultramarathonman.com/Dean Karnazes Books:Ultra-Marathon Manhttps://a.co/d/cPlCxAaRun!https://a.co/d/4CCSguMRunners Highhttps://a.co/d/gsb1Elz50/50https://a.co/d/5lUa0arThe Road to Spartahttps://a.co/d/aOfOZhgGreek Running Tourshttps://www.greekrunningtours.com/Dean on Instagramhttps://instagram.com/ultramarathonUltraMarathon Man: 50 Marathons • 50 States • 50 Days Documentaryhttps://youtu.be/bpjRFkqTIkY?si=_R5lAQ5teaCk0kNN

In this episode:In the MMB we take a look at the science behind the popular homeopathic remedy arnica. Is there any merit to this topically applied plant derivative for treating delayed onset muscle soreness? Plus, our guest, Stephanie Van Bebber, brings her expertise in clinical research to the table as we navigate through the headlines that have left many in the running community feeling a bit queasy (and not just from the gels). The study in question reveals that ultra runners might be at an increased risk for advanced adenomas, those pesky precursors to cancer. But before you toss those running shoes into the nearest donation bin, let's unpack what this really means.

In this episode of the Power Producers Podcast, David Carothers joined by Jon Bassford, author of the insightful book, "The Curious Leader," to discuss the transformative power of curiosity in leadership, sales, and personal growth. We explore how an inquisitive mindset fuels innovation, the crucial distinction between a salesperson and a true consultant, and the flaws within the insurance industry's compensation models. The conversation also touches on the parallels between endurance challenges like running marathons and the journey of leadership, emphasizing the importance of vulnerability, building diverse teams, and fostering psychological safety. Key Highlights: The Power of the Curious Leader Jon Bassford shares the core message from his book, explaining how fostering an inquisitive mindset is the engine for genuine innovation. We discuss the importance of educated risk-taking and creating an environment where acknowledging mistakes is seen as a vital part of individual and organizational development, not a failure. Salesperson vs. Consultant in the Insurance Industry The conversation shifts to the insurance sector, where we critique flawed compensation models that incentivize policy-pushing over problem-solving. Using real-world examples like the Fisker Auto bankruptcy, we highlight how true value comes from objective audits and a consultative approach that enhances a client's risk profile, drawing a clear line between surface-level sales and deep operational consulting. Leadership Lessons from Marathons and Writing We explore the powerful metaphors of running a marathon and writing a book. Jon and I discuss how these challenging, introspective journeys teach profound lessons in vulnerability, perseverance, and self-discovery, mirroring the trials and tribulations faced by any effective leader. Building Psychologically Safe & Diverse Teams This segment focuses on common leadership pitfalls and the critical need for psychological safety. Jon Bassford offers compelling insights on how leaders can empower their teams by building diverse groups where every individual feels safe to contribute, challenge ideas, and innovate without fear of reprisal.
