“An obstacle is really just an opportunity.”  - Noah H Pines   “I do messy cases.  I do a lot of appellate work where people have been convicted and sentenced to prison for the rest of their life including projects for the Innocence Project.”  - Noah H Pines   How do you get through the tough times?  Noah has had adversity in his life but has not let it stop him.  Noah uses barriers to reset, restart and then does better.  Noah has learned more from the cases that he's lost than the cases that he's won.         One of the most rewarding things that Noah does is to push a wheelchair for the Kyle Pease Foundation.  Noah will be pushing an athlete with a disability in the Marine Corp Marathon this October.  The disabled athletes feel the same endorphin rush that the runners do.  The Kyle Pease Foundation's vision is to create opportunities of inclusion for every person with a disability.   Link to Noah's book:  https://a.co/d/1DYZbEc Kyle Pease Foundation: https://www.kylepeasefoundation.org/     You can follow the I Can Do Anything Podcast at: Email us at – icandoanythingpod@gmail.com Watch on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeI1EHGodsDgwYbvHuOxLQQ And then there is always my website - www.icandoanythingpod.com Like and subscribe on Facebook - https://bit.ly/3bG0Efk Follow on X (Twitter) - https://bit.ly/2yqZczb Find me on Instagram - https://bit.ly/2xDFIa4 Get your merch here - https://bit.ly/teespringicdapod Join me on Goodreads – ICDA

He's done races like the Pinellas Trail Challenge, the Toxic Trail, Colt 45, Long Play, Sweat Swat n' Swear, and the Monroe Cross Trail 50 Mile Ultra. This dude has also been a tremendous help with volunteering at so many races like the Skunk Ape Night Run and he has also been a huge help crewing at races like the Lake to Ocean 100k. Ty Aronson got it done with a time of 30:08:46! He's done races like the Daytona 100, the Long Haul 100, Tunnel Hill, and last year he ran at the Keys 100 with a time of 31:38:57!

She's done races like the Pinellas Trail Challenge, the Clearwater Distance Classic 50k, and she ran the 50k at last year's Keys 100... talk about coming back for more! Viviane crossed that finish line with a time 27:31:37 and!  At the end of her race, she was surprised by a huge proposal that you'll hear all about! what an amazing end so something already so special. She's done races like the Daytona 100 in the 50 Miler event and the Marine Corp Marathon in the 50k event! Such an iconic and legendary Florida race! From the Race Director Bob Becker to all the volunteers, the Course Marshalls, Mark Cudak, the runners, the crews, the county, and everyone else involved does an amazing job year after year!

4-16-2023 Update Well my friends.  Tomorrow is Patriots Day in Boston. And we all know what that means.  That's right, it's the Boston Marathon.  I've got a few friends running.  The weather looks pretty good. Sara Hall is running and Des Linden.  The fastest man in the world, Kipchoge is looking to complete his sweep of the majors.   Who knows?  Maybe we'll see a sub-2-hour finish from him!  That would be something.  I am running a bit again.  I have spent the last 2-3 month slowly trying to get myself back into shape.  The knee seems to be ok as long as I don't work it to hard.  I'm still trying to see where the edge is.  I worked with Rachel and took 15-20 pounds off.  And I got through the first 30 days of the Body Building for Beginners program.  I'm going to stop that right there.  I repeated weeks 3 and 4, but I'm not going to go deeper.  It gets very specific in the second two months and is probably more complex than I need.  And, the big news is that I have signed up for a race.  My friend Ann who we have talked to a couple times here on the podcast has a charity that she is heavily involved in called “Burgers and Bands” which is a teenage suicide prevention program.  She got 50 charity slots for the Marine Corp Marathon.  So, jokingly, I said, if you run it I'll run it.  And she called my bluff.  I am fund raising and I'm going to try to blog about the process of getting back into shape.  I'll put a link in the show notes, at the top so you can donate.  Then my coach, who was in the mix, said “Ok if you two run I'll train you.”  And the rest is, as they say is history.  I am going to toss in some audio from before my run today.  I am going to start podcasting more.  I have some interviews.  I'm trying to put less pressure on myself.  I've got a lot of ideas and a lot of content, but less time to execute. I have been plugging away at my other, After the Apocalypse podcast.  I'm just about to finish up season 3.  I'm getting somewhere around 22,000 downloads a month.  There's 20 episodes in a season, and I plan to make each season into a book.  As I creep ever closer to retirement I'm setting myself up to have a bunch of evergreen publishing content going.  At some point I'll circle back to all the posts on RunRunLive and try to consolidate them into some sort of order and edit them up into some books.  There are literally millions of words worth of content out there.  Anyhow, figured I'd check in let you know I'm still out here.  A little slower, gimpy-er and grey – but out here none the less.

In this episode, I sit down with fellow Rise Up Nutrition LLC dietitian Jenna Stranzl, our first repeat guest. Catch our previous conversation where Jenna shares her story on episode 30 of the Female Athlete Nutrition Podcast.   Today we discuss the most rewarding parts of helping our clients overcome their fueling concerns, seeing how mindset shifts have led to huge transformations across their whole lives. Jenna and I talk about the education and experience required to become a dietitian, some of the different dietetic careers paths, and how to find what suits you. Despite certainly practicing what we preach, Jenna and I are still evolving our own relationships with nutrition and our bodies. New chapters and different stages of life bring new and different challenges of their own, requiring us to constantly check in and evaluate our thought patterns and behavior. We touch on struggles in our own personal and professional lives, and how working with clients has improved our own body image: the tools that we equip our clients with we also use ourselves. Being fit, fast and fueled is not defined by the absence of struggle and disordered thoughts, the difference is in how we react to them. I speak on my personal mind and body changes throughout pregnancy, and how I've had to shift my view of exercise and weight gain during and post-partum: the pressure to get your pre-pregnancy body back is real but not realistic or healthy! Similarly Jenna reflects on her own journey with running and challenging some lingering "food rules" like having Splenda often! The way we invest in our clients is by investing in ourselves first. And Jenna and I share how we have started coaching each other through challenges in our own lives: even dietitians need dietitians sometimes! Stay tuned for regular progress updates on social media by following @female.athlete.nutrition! Jenna's Bio Jenna Stranzl has been a dietitian with Rise Up Nutrition since January 2021. Jenna is a marathon runner, doggie lover, registered dietitian and sports nutritionist. Notably, she has raced in the NYC Marathon and Marine Corp Marathon among many others. In addition to fueling female athletes here at Rise Up Nutrition, she is also the Sports Nutritionist for NY Islanders NHL and AHL Organization. She has worked with many collegiate and professional athletes including PGA tour, IMG Academy, Penn State and University of Pennsylvania athletics.  Follow Jenna on Instagram @_jennalee and continue to follow her journey through our Instagram page and stories @female.athlete.nutrition   This episode is brought to you by the Female Athlete System of Transformation: Click here to Book a Call & learn more Learn more about Lindsey's Services and the Team at Rise Up Nutrition: www.RiseUpNutritionRUN.com Worried that you have RED-S?

#143 - Sooner or later, most of us will be DFL in a race. So, what is DFL? In running, the term means Dead F**king Last. It used to be the worst thing in the world to be last, but connotations have changed over the years and it's not so bad anymore. In fact, with the rise of Backyard races, it's the best thing! This week, I talk about DFLs and why the Back of the Pack has the most fun and why you shouldn't stress so much over being slower than the elites. I also talk about the seemingly endless problems with this year's Marine Corp Marathon in Tales of the Trail and I go over what the show will be with my upcoming surgery. The future is bright! For all links and info, please go to the show website at: www.martharunstheworld.com to send your race reports, comments and well wishes, please email me at: martharunstheworld@gmail.com

His upbringing as an Army brat, as well as his own small stint in the military, prepared him well for a career full of leadership challenges and diverse geographic assignments. John’s post college journey began with six years of dynamic agency experience working for world-class companies, including Young and Rubicam and TracyLocke and supporting premier brands the likes of the U.S. Army, Miller Brewing Company, DuPont and PepsiCo. Among his many roles, John executed photo-shoots in the jungles of Honduras and Panama with the Army Reserve, wrote copy for DuPont car- covers in Wilmington, Delaware, drove sports marketing execution and strategy out of a Miller Genuine Draft van in support of Miller Sports in New England and developed packaging and promotions on-site at Pepsi North America’s headquarters in Somers, New York. John’s agency experiences provided him with invaluable consumer insights, lessons on brand loyalty and a strong creative spark that have helped guide him throughout his career on the client-side. Jumping the wall from agency (TracyLocke) to client (PepsiCo), John began a fourteen year stint with PepsiCo that would take him (and his growing family) from Purchase, New York to London, England back to Purchase to Boulder, Colorado and finally to Chicago, for various marketing and general management assignments. Under John’s leadership at PepsiCo, Pepsi increased experimentation with non-traditional media and acquired the sponsorship rights to the NFL for the first time (still holds), Mountain Dew, expanded its reach to new consumers, created a full-length movie with Universal Pictures and launched the Dew Tour with NBC, 7UP re-framed its marketing strategy, look and investment and  grew beverage share in Europe, IZZE was fully-integrated into the PepsiCo family and Gatorade rebounded from a momentary blip in its growth track. John then showcased his brand passion and traffic building skills within the hospitality trade at Hard Rock International, for what may be a record (eight years) in position as Chief Marketing Officer, where he oversaw marketing efforts across Cafes, Hotels and Casinos in 75 countries across the globe. He was a member of the executive leadership team responsible for delivering six straight years of record profit for the company. Under John’s direction, the brand step-changed digital efforts across the board dramatically increased owned and earned media through social and CRM efforts. He also launched the brand’s first-ever unified loyalty program, Hard Rock Rewards, the “largest global, multi-hospitality unit” program in world along with Hard Rock Rising, the brand’s omni-channel global battle of the bands. When not working on digital, loyalty or new openings, John kept busy driving brand relevance by signing key philanthropic partnerships with global icons including Imagine Dragons, Rihanna and Pitbull, negotiating concert deals with Live Nation and overseeing content plays with VICE Media. After leaving Hard Rock, John took up his current role overseeing Marketing and Innovation for Godiva International based in New York City. Today, he is kept busy working across multiple products, brand and channels as Godiva pursues an aggressive global growth agenda and a noble brand purpose (Open People’s Eyes To A More Wonderful World). His favorite chocolate is the Godiva Chocolate Lava Truffle. John is a long-suffering New York Jets fan, an ex-college lacrosse goalie at Manhattan College (still believes he can save any shot), a hack runner chasing an elusive under four hour marathon (personal best: Marine Corp Marathon, 2016 4:07), a proud husband to his college sweetheart and a, most-of-the-time, doting father of three to Julia (22), JJ (19) and Nicholas (12).

Little did I know that through the training, it was going help me understand how to care for my knees and my entire body.  Your knees, hips and shoulders are probably the most easily injured parts of your body besides spinal injuries.

Our Body Epiphanies & Resilient Mindset Co-Host: Brandon Trean was homeschooled most of his entire life by two awesome parents. He had wild health issues from mercury intoxication, to 8 lung collapses (one he almost died from laughing to death and had his life flash before his eyes). A year of throwing up nearly every day and coming down to intense malnutrition states at a young age, to now dealing with a gut issue that was deemed as sepsis back on March 15th, 2014. Needless to say, Brandon has been deeply educated by this inner teacher to this day. Nose bleeds that required cauterization multiple times, sleep paralysis, unique meditation experiences, etc. I started my practice (massage/bodywork & nutritional studio) when I was 24 years old with $15K in debt even at the counter advice of other business comrades. I've only ever had one job prior to this which was a fun management position with a movie store. A lot of auspiciousness throughout my life, meeting the right people at the right times leading to more accumulating evidence that living by intuition has served me well. I think if I have something to offer to your groovy podcast series, it is simply resilience of mind in the face of seemingly insurmountable physical & mental disease states. Essentially mindset and how I have forged an optimism that is my north star in multiple circumstances that ought to have killed me (some 14 close calls with death). I have other projects I want to offer to the world (Dappurr Cat, Immortal Inquiry, etc.) but the current health circumstance I am facing (some 220+ experiments over 3 years to attempt to correct and understand said pathology(s) has been a constant reminder that I must keep my health as my chief focus at this current time. I have interesting business marketing ideas that I have implemented over the years that have worked well in attracting my peoples as it were. I recently began a (what I call Ninja Fundraiser) opportunity for organizations that I think would do best in receiving more monetary gain. So I donate my services to raise money for select groups in this Ninja Fundraiser style which goes beyond my Body Epiphanies branding project.

[spp-timestamp time="05:35"] Standing Desks. [spp-timestamp time="06:10"] MD's relating to DC's. Mentioning how Vinnie Tortorich isn't a supporter of Doctor's of Chiropractic. Jack helps us clarify what "real doctors" can truly do in different situations. [spp-timestamp time="08:20"] Scott finds his trust of chiropractic care in 2008 training for the Marine Corp Marathon in Washington DC. [spp-timestamp time="11:15"] The average MD, a medical doctor is not taught anything about nutrition. [spp-timestamp time="12:50"] Taking issue with the 300 MD's and Ph.D.'s that wrote the references he includes at the end of his book, The Paleo Cardiologist. [spp-timestamp time="15:45"] We're talking about who lives the best, who lives the longest, who has the lowest risk of heart attack and stroke. [spp-timestamp time="19:20"] Referencing the NSNG lifestyle, Vinnie Tortorich and how he's surviving Leukemia Cancer by reducing sugar consumption. [spp-timestamp time="20:00"] Whatever the diet book, everyone is going to be anti-sugar these days. It's hard to get people off the sugar, all we can do is give them the information. What people do with the information is their choice. They're not hearing the truth in the typical medical establishment. Doctors are not spending the time to speak to people, they're not educated to speak to people, they're kind of down on the whole process of nutrition. [spp-timestamp time="23:10"] Sharing our mutual love of mountain biking. Even as a Cardiologist, all he can do is call 911 in the case of an emergency.

[spp-timestamp time="34:07"] Referencing Dr. Jack Kruse and mitochondrial health. Both Jack's actually spoke together at an event in June 2016 in Vermont. [spp-timestamp time="36:00"] Jack Kruse brings heavy science to the Paleo lifestyle. Dr. Jack Wolfson tests people's cellular levels of Omega 3', Vegans are extremely deficient in Omega 3's. Clearly, this is linked to all disease as well. [spp-timestamp time="37:20"] Follow the wisdom of our ancestors. [spp-timestamp time="37:37"] Mentioning Dr. Joe Dispenza and my recent event attendance learning about the quantum law. [spp-timestamp time="38:00"] The Quantlet device from Dr. Jack Kruse. [spp-timestamp time="40:00"] Our bodies natural response to problems is inflammation. We need to put the fire out by finding what the caused the fire. It's all about causation....

Training for Chicago and NYC Marathons, discussion about the Marine Corp Marathon and Action for Healthy Kids with Runner of the Week, Tom Kreider, and Serena and I talk about marathon training and what is the ideal choice when eating bread is what is in store for today.  If you want to make sure you don't miss a single update from The Running Lifestyle Show, please head over to www.therunninglifestyle.com/join and find out the 11 Strategies to Create a Running Lifestyle. Jeff calms me down when I am freaking out “on air” about running a 20 mile run, having pain in my right hip, updating The Running Lifestyle website and trying to balance family and work while training for two marathons.  Jeff shares how you can never go too slow in a long run. In fact, you can even walk the whole way which enables you to keep up your endurance going in to a race.  The longer you run, the more time there is for aches and pains to appear, so Jeff recommends running for as little as 10-15 seconds and then walking 30 seconds. Tips Jeff shares to battle the heat is to run in the dark (safety first), and dumping cold water over your head every 20 minutes. Some of Jeff's running groups stat their long runs from 2-3:00 AM to avoid the sun. Wow! We discuss how the ElliptiGo is an amazing piece of machinery that allows someone to train with out the impact. Turns out that I went out too hard on the Go in the beginning with one hour rides including hills.  Ideally, when starting out with the Go, its recommended to start with 15-30 minute gentle rides.  Jeff has recommended that I replace one of my easy 30 minute Tuesday/Thursday runs with an easy 30 minute ElliptiGo session. Yay! I LOVE the Go so that was magic to my ears.  The ElliptiGo is a fantastic tool for hip strengthening. Speaking of magic, we discussed how to determine what a Magic Mile is. The Magic Mile gives you an indication of your race pace.  To determine a Magic Mile, run a mile, then multiply it by 1.30 because people generally slow down by 30% when running a marathon.  When running a long run, because you can never go too slow, add two minutes to race pace.  I ran a 10:30 Magic Mile recently, so that means I would run a 13:39 marathon race pace, which means when I go out for a long run now, I should run it around a 15:30 race pace.  As time goes on, and it cools down, it will be interesting to see how my time is affected. Jeff has helped over 10,000 runners and receiving videotaping of people running just doesn't give enough information. Many people attend his running schools and seminars across the world to work on their form.  Jeff recommended I go back to my physical therapist who knows my body best to see “what is going” with the pain in my right hip. Serena and I are going to have our virtual race where people can run 2.62 miles by November 1st (the day of the NYC Marathon), and receive a special certificate.  The cost of the virtual race is $26.20 and all of the money raised will go to Team Kari and Serena Run NYC and Chicago.  Friendly reminder, Jeff has the Jeff Galloway 13.1 on December 13, 2015 in Atlanta.  There is a chance I may be going down there to join in on the fun. We then transition over to our Runner of the Week, Tom Kreider. You may recognize Tom as he has been on the show before.  The person who donates the most money to Team Kari and Serena in a month, comes back on the show to share their running story.  Tom is running the Marine Corp Marathon in October, which is his second marathon (Disney World was his first and he had a great time) and is really looking forward to it. Tom surprises Serena and me and challenges you, the listener of the Running Lifestyle Show, to donate to Action for Healthy Kids by Saturday, August 22nd. If you donate (and the kids and us really hope you do because they need healthy food and fitness equipment in their schools), Tom will match up to $300.  If you are going to donate, can you PLEASE donate now?  HERE is the link. Just click and donate. The kids and Serena and I thank you. :-) Friendly reminder, we're having a raffle on Sunday, September 26th where for every $25 you donate, you receive a raffle ticket. What's included in the raffle are Jeff Galloway books and times, Sleep Soundly Every Night, Feel Fantastic Every Day books from Dr. Robert Rosenberg, Oofos footwear, BANDIwear products, and much more! Serena can't help herself but to share her love and knowledge of all things food.  We discuss how our training is coming along and Serena answers a question from our private Facebook Group about what type of bread to eat is best. Serena recommends sprouted bread as it has a lower gliadin count.   Gliadin increases appetites, so a lower gliadin count is ideal.  Serena eats spelt bread on occasion as it is sprouted and had a lower gliadin count. Have an awesome week and we'll “see you” next week with the Race Director of the Chicago Marathon, Carey Pinkowski.

Expisode 300 – Coach Andrew Kastor and much frivolity… (Audio: link) [audio:http://www.RunRunLive.com/PodcastEpisodes/epi4300.mp3] Link epi4300.mp3 Intro: Hello my friends and welcome to episode 300 of the RunRunLive podcast.  For those of you who have been friends for a bit you'll realize that this is a necessary departure from our standard format to celebrate our Tri-centennial.  For those of you who may be new to our little endurance sports journal, well you'll just have to figure it out by listening to some of the other shows.   Thanks you to Tony for the marathon prayer intro.  Tony does a regular segment called Tony's Trials on the Marathon Talk UK Podcast (link).  One of our executive editors, Alex form the UK got permission from them for us to use it.  Marathon Talk UK -> All about running. A weekly podcast dedicated to keeping you on the inside track to successful running. Presented by Martin Yelling and Tom Williams Tony Audenshaw - Tony's Trials I'm guessing we are going to go long today, so you'd better schedule a long run or ride or whatever for this one.  I've invited some of my friends to submit audios and I'm going to be completely frivolous and indiscrete with too many musical interludes.  Just sit back and let it wash over you like a wave of warm molasses.  Chill out.  No rules for this one.  It's going to be a long show and the format is going to be different than usual, but you want to hang around until the end because the ASICS team has asked me to give some shoes away and I'll set up the contest in the show outro.  Everybody likes free shoes.   It's been a long run, huh?  We've seen births and deaths and marriages and divorces.  The cycle of life.  For everything there is a season and you've certainly ornamented my life for the better through these many seasons.   In today's 300th official episode I'm going to talk about community at some point and this strange and wonderful long distance relationship we all share wrapped around our sports.  I may tell a zombie story, for the Halloween season, just for fun.   I've gathered up some guest commentary for you to enjoy, if for no other reason than to quiet the voices in your head.  But, Fear not! We are going to wrap all the frivolity around a great interview with coach Andrew Kastor who I met through the ASICS NYC marathon Editor's Choice boondoggle, I mean ‘program'.  I really enjoyed talking to Andrew about altitude training and geeking out on training topics in general.   It's a great running-content-rich interview and I feel I'm doing it a disservice by sandwiching it into all this 300th episode frooforal.  Nothing significantly new in my training.  I'm feeling fairly strong.  I got a nice 2:30 long run in over the weekend that was significant in that I was able to maintain my HR and pace consistently throughout without power failure.  Too many of my long runs over the summer ended with a death march – so I think that's progress.   I'm still trying to find my racing speed.  Maybe it's gone for good.  I appear to be healthy, so maybe I'm just entering a new phase of slowness.  It really doesn't matter because either way I'm going to get up every day and throw myself at my workouts as part of my balance.   With the MCM and NYC coming up in couple weeks on back to back weekends my plan is not to race them but instead try to walk away healthy.  Then we can throw in a targeted cycle for either a mid-winter race or a spring race.  I'm looking at some shorter stuff too to fill the gaps.   Looking forward to some grand adventures with new and old friends alike.  So…my friends, bear with me as we take off our shirts and dance on the tables today, throwing all rigor and caution to the wind, because, hey, we're among friends, and friends take the time to celebrate their accomplishments.   On with the show!  Steve Runner What can you say about Steve that hasn't been said?  He's the five-star General of running podcasts – a landmark – a fixture – a guiding light for all of us.  And, even though I know he doesn't listen to my show he caught on to the zombie theme and submitted a slickly produced mini-episode.  Brilliant as always.  Katy Thereux It always warms my heart when I hear from women who listen to the show and get something out of it.  Katy sent me this very nice missive.  Apparently we resonate in some way through the universal mastermind.  That's one of the dynamics of the digital world – your ideas can slip free of the physical and resonate with like minds in the ether.  Section One The Sleepless in Seattle Effect - http://runrunlive.com/sleepless-in-seattle-effect Music -> Bombskare –“I'm so Happy!” Carlos I've been listening to Carlos and watching him run through his beloved Pacific Northwest Mountains and forest for many years.  I would have never had the opportunity to know Carlos if it wasn't for being part of the online running community.  He's always got the Grateful Dead playing in the background.  It seems like an idyllic life to me, running in the forest and listening to the dead.  How could it get any better?  Ann Brennan So sometimes in the digital world you get to meet actual crazy people.  I've had the great pleasure of meeting Ann and her husband and kids and I've learned a lot from her trials and resiliency and openness.   If everything goes right I'll get to eat dinner at her place with the Miles to end Prostate cancer team before the Marine Corp Marathon.  The world is a better place with Ann's life force.   Steve Chopper Steve was one of the original running podcasters with his high quality show “A mile with me” I always aspired to be as professional as Steve.  His first shows were works of art, like BBC documentaries.  I've met Steve in the flesh and broken bread with him.  When we met we immediately bonded and of course we ran and raced each other like kids in the schoolyard.  Featured Interview Coach Andrew Kastor http://www.coachkastor.com/about/ About The Coach Andrew started his running career in the early 1990's, at the young age of 14, when he competed in cross county, track and road racing while attending Fountain Valley High School in Southern California. He then went on to pursue a degree in Exercise Physiology (B.S. 2000) from Adams State University in Alamosa, Colorado. While in college, Andrew's commitment to the sport of running continued to grow, as he competed in cross-country and track, specializing in the middle-distance events. Post-graduation, Andrew moved to Mammoth Lakes, California, where he created and coached a non-profit running club called the High Sierra Striders. He is now the head coach for the ASICS Mammoth Track Club and the LA Road Runners. Andrew currently resides in Mammoth Lakes with his wife Deena (Olympic Marathon bronze medalist and American Record holder in the marathon and half-marathon) and their daughter, Piper Bloom. Music Big D and the Kid's Table – “Myself” Duane Hespell Comment:  Obviously I caught Duane on a good day.  I think he was just waiting for a chance to bust out with some creative audio.  He went all extra-mile on me.  That's another fun thing about our community – you discover people's hidden talents! Thanks Duane.   Maryro Mendez comment I've been having conversations with this young lady for a long time but I seldom hear her voice!  Wow! What an amazing voice!  I can die happy now.  We made a bet one time when we both had marathons on the same weekend. I happened to have a decent race so I won!  I don't care so much about the lobster dinner but I am happy to have made a friend that I'm grateful for.   Section Two:  Zombie Apocalypse - http://runrunlive.com/zombie-apocalypse-300-act-one Peter Herridge I first got to know Peter through Phedipidations as he and Steve traded philosophical arguments.  Peter is a thoughtful man and I enjoy listening to him turn big thoughts over in his head and look at them in a fresh, learned and interesting way.  I'd never get that chance if it wasn't for joining this community and my life would be poorer for it.  Eddie and Adam: What does it sound like when two long lost friends get together after a long absence and start drinking craft beer?  I guess this bit from Eddie and Adam answers that question.  I've spent time with both these guys and can confirm that when they're not addled on homebrew they're both way smarter than I am.  I'm hoping someday my association with them rubs off and I graduate to a better person because of it.  Outro:  Drag your tired body out of the mud.  Push back the ravenous hoards.  Celebrate! We've come to a milestone.  We've survived.  We've grown. We've run, we've run some more and maybe we've even lived a little.  I hope to keep that streak alive.  Frankly, I'm not sure what the show format is going to be going forward but I will do what I can to fill the void, to light a candle, to shine my feeble light into the dark and murky corners and find forgotten or unnoticed treasures, to weave into the tapestry of our mutual, digital experience.   ASICS Gel Kayano 21 NYC Shoe Give Away! Go here & post a comment to win some shoes -> http://runrunlive.com/asics-gel-kayano-21-nyc-shoe-give-away My friends at ASICS America want me to give away a pair of NYC GEL-Kayano 21.  These are $160 shoes.   I've never run in them (although I'm up to 5 different pairs of shoes that I'm testing to run NYC in ).  They are decribed on the ASICS website as follow.  The new GEL-Kayano® 21 NYC special edition was made for the 2014 TCS New York City Marathon and is updated with nothing but the best in ASICS technical innovation, featuring the next generation of FluidRide™ and an Ortholite X-40 sockliner for the lightest and most luxuriously stable ride yet. Mild to moderate overpronators will run the streets of New York City in secure comfort, thanks to the new uniquely designed FluidFit™ upper and Heel Clutching System™. So, it sounds like a light stability shoe.  If that sounds like something you want I've set up a post on my website at RunRunLive.com and all you have to do is go register.   We'll pick a winner on NYC race weekend.  Just make sure you give a real email address when you're posting or we won't be able to find you!  So my friends, as hard as it is to find the time to slap a show together every couple weeks, I really do enjoy it.  If it wasn't for the RunRunLive Podcast to keep me occupied I clearly would have written a best-selling novel by now, and then I would have sold the rights to Hollywood, gone out there, hooked up with the drugs, the alcohol and starlets with questionable morals. I would have gotten divorced, and I'd be sleeping in my own filth in a West Hollywood gutter right now...so you've saved me from all that.  I am almost done with my MarathonBQ book.  15 chapters in.  I had a couple people raise their hands for editing and I sent them drafts, but never heard from them again…  It took longer than a month but I wouldn't have gotten it done at all if I hadn't challenged myself.  I'll edit and polish it up and do a launch in the next couple months.   Here's an actual value added tip that I heard a couple weeks ago.  When you work on a creative process the emotional energy and momentum is shaped like a ‘U'.  When you first start you are all excited and full of energy and you make progress quickly, like the straight side of the ‘U'.   Then when you get part way through you start to realize all the things that need to be worked out and you get mired down.  You start going sideways into distracting offshoot.  You lose your momentum and your excitement for the project.  This is the bent part at the bottom of the ‘U'.   It is here that many people give up on their creative projects.  It becomes work and the light at the end of the tunnel seems so far away.  This is where experience helps.  You might say this phase of the creative project is similar to ‘the dark place' that I talk about in training cycles.   You have to put your head down, soldier on and push through.   Then as you approach the end of the creative project everything start to coalesce.  It all starts coming together.  Everything becomes clear and it is joyous again as you wrap things up and birth the finished product.  This is the other straight side of the ‘U'.   Remember the ‘U' process and it will help you stick to your path when things get hard.  It's been close to 2 years since we rolled out version 3.0 of the RunRunLive podcast.  As always you can find me on Gmail or most social networks as CYKTRussell.  All of my slightly bent U-shaped projects are available at my website RunRunLive.com.   And you know what?   I'll see you out there.  Music: Tim Armstrong – “Hold on”  Music in this show (All from Music Alley and Podsafe!)  The High Fidelics – “Spy_Smasher” The High Fidelics – “Mondo Rondo” The Vibro-tones – “Nova Express” The Vanes – “Bad Mea or Good Cheese” Benuts – Turn off your radio” The Fighting Cocks – “No Candy” The Fashionistas – Keep it underground” Big D and the Kid's Table – “Myself” 20 Riverside – “Throwin it down beside the sea” Unsteady – “Tokyo” Bombskare –“I'm so Happy!” Tim Armstrong – “Hold on”

We are going to wrap all the frivolity around a great interview with coach Andrew Kastor who I met through the ASICS NYC marathon Editor’s Choice boondoggle, I mean ‘program’.  I really enjoyed talking to Andrew about altitude training and geeking out on training topics in general.   It’s a great running-content-rich interview and I feel I’m doing it a disservice by sandwiching it into all this 300th episode frooforal.  Nothing significantly new in my training.  I’m feeling fairly strong.  I got a nice 2:30 long run in over the weekend that was significant in that I was able to maintain my HR and pace consistently throughout without power failure.  Too many of my long runs over the summer ended with a death march – so I think that’s progress.   I’m still trying to find my racing speed.  Maybe it’s gone for good.  I appear to be healthy, so maybe I’m just entering a new phase of slowness.  It really doesn’t matter because either way I’m going to get up every day and throw myself at my workouts as part of my balance.   With the MCM and NYC coming up in couple weeks on back to back weekends my plan is not to race them but instead try to walk away healthy.  Then we can throw in a targeted cycle for either a mid-winter race or a spring race.  I’m looking at some shorter stuff too to fill the gaps.   Looking forward to some grand adventures with new and old friends alike.  So…my friends, bear with me as we take off our shirts and dance on the tables today, throwing all rigor and caution to the wind, because, hey, we’re among friends, and friends take the time to celebrate their accomplishments.   On with the show!  Steve Runner What can you say about Steve that hasn’t been said?  He’s the five-star General of running podcasts – a landmark – a fixture – a guiding light for all of us.  And, even though I know he doesn’t listen to my show he caught on to the zombie theme and submitted a slickly produced mini-episode.  Brilliant as always.  Katy Thereux It always warms my heart when I hear from women who listen to the show and get something out of it.  Katy sent me this very nice missive.  Apparently we resonate in some way through the universal mastermind.  That’s one of the dynamics of the digital world – your ideas can slip free of the physical and resonate with like minds in the ether.  Section One The Sleepless in Seattle Effect - http://runrunlive.com/sleepless-in-seattle-effect Music -> Bombskare –“I’m so Happy!” Carlos I’ve been listening to Carlos and watching him run through his beloved Pacific Northwest Mountains and forest for many years.  I would have never had the opportunity to know Carlos if it wasn’t for being part of the online running community.  He’s always got the Grateful Dead playing in the background.  It seems like an idyllic life to me, running in the forest and listening to the dead.  How could it get any better?  Ann Brennan So sometimes in the digital world you get to meet actual crazy people.  I’ve had the great pleasure of meeting Ann and her husband and kids and I’ve learned a lot from her trials and resiliency and openness.   If everything goes right I’ll get to eat dinner at her place with the Miles to end Prostate cancer team before the Marine Corp Marathon.  The world is a better place with Ann’s life force.   Steve Chopper Steve was one of the original running podcasters with his high quality show “A mile with me” I always aspired to be as professional as Steve.  His first shows were works of art, like BBC documentaries.  I’ve met Steve in the flesh and broken bread with him.  When we met we immediately bonded and of course we ran and raced each other like kids in the schoolyard.  Featured Interview Coach Andrew Kastor http://www.coachkastor.com/about/ About The Coach Andrew started his running career in the early 1990’s, at the young age of 14, when he competed in cross county, track and road racing while attending Fountain Valley High School in Southern California. He then went on to pursue a degree in Exercise Physiology (B.S. 2000) from Adams State University in Alamosa, Colorado. While in college, Andrew’s commitment to the sport of running continued to grow, as he competed in cross-country and track, specializing in the middle-distance events. Post-graduation, Andrew moved to Mammoth Lakes, California, where he created and coached a non-profit running club called the High Sierra Striders. He is now the head coach for the ASICS Mammoth Track Club and the LA Road Runners. Andrew currently resides in Mammoth Lakes with his wife Deena (Olympic Marathon bronze medalist and American Record holder in the marathon and half-marathon) and their daughter, Piper Bloom. Music Big D and the Kid’s Table – “Myself” Duane Hespell Comment:  Obviously I caught Duane on a good day.  I think he was just waiting for a chance to bust out with some creative audio.  He went all extra-mile on me.  That’s another fun thing about our community – you discover people’s hidden talents! Thanks Duane.   Maryro Mendez comment I’ve been having conversations with this young lady for a long time but I seldom hear her voice!  Wow! What an amazing voice!  I can die happy now.  We made a bet one time when we both had marathons on the same weekend. I happened to have a decent race so I won!  I don’t care so much about the lobster dinner but I am happy to have made a friend that I’m grateful for.   Section Two:  Zombie Apocalypse - http://runrunlive.com/zombie-apocalypse-300-act-one Peter Herridge I first got to know Peter through Phedipidations as he and Steve traded philosophical arguments.  Peter is a thoughtful man and I enjoy listening to him turn big thoughts over in his head and look at them in a fresh, learned and interesting way.  I’d never get that chance if it wasn’t for joining this community and my life would be poorer for it.  Eddie and Adam: What does it sound like when two long lost friends get together after a long absence and start drinking craft beer?  I guess this bit from Eddie and Adam answers that question.  I’ve spent time with both these guys and can confirm that when they’re not addled on homebrew they’re both way smarter than I am.  I’m hoping someday my association with them rubs off and I graduate to a better person because of it.  Outro:  Drag your tired body out of the mud.  Push back the ravenous hoards.  Celebrate! We’ve come to a milestone.  We’ve survived.  We’ve grown. We’ve run, we’ve run some more and maybe we’ve even lived a little.  I hope to keep that streak alive.  Frankly, I’m not sure what the show format is going to be going forward but I will do what I can to fill the void, to light a candle, to shine my feeble light into the dark and murky corners and find forgotten or unnoticed treasures, to weave into the tapestry of our mutual, digital experience.   ASICS Gel Kayano 21 NYC Shoe Give Away! Go here & post a comment to win some shoes -> http://runrunlive.com/asics-gel-kayano-21-nyc-shoe-give-away My friends at ASICS America want me to give away a pair of NYC GEL-Kayano 21.  These are $160 shoes.   I’ve never run in them (although I’m up to 5 different pairs of shoes that I’m testing to run NYC in ).  They are decribed on the ASICS website as follow.  The new GEL-Kayano® 21 NYC special edition was made for the 2014 TCS New York City Marathon and is updated with nothing but the best in ASICS technical innovation, featuring the next generation of FluidRide™ and an Ortholite X-40 sockliner for the lightest and most luxuriously stable ride yet. Mild to moderate overpronators will run the streets of New York City in secure comfort, thanks to the new uniquely designed FluidFit™ upper and Heel Clutching System™. So, it sounds like a light stability shoe.  If that sounds like something you want I’ve set up a post on my website at RunRunLive.com and all you have to do is go register.   We’ll pick a winner on NYC race weekend.  Just make sure you give a real email address when you’re posting or we won’t be able to find you!  So my friends, as hard as it is to find the time to slap a show together every couple weeks, I really do enjoy it.  If it wasn’t for the RunRunLive Podcast to keep me occupied I clearly would have written a best-selling novel by now, and then I would have sold the rights to Hollywood, gone out there, hooked up with the drugs, the alcohol and starlets with questionable morals. I would have gotten divorced, and I’d be sleeping in my own filth in a West Hollywood gutter right now...so you’ve saved me from all that.  I am almost done with my MarathonBQ book.  15 chapters in.  I had a couple people raise their hands for editing and I sent them drafts, but never heard from them again…  It took longer than a month but I wouldn’t have gotten it done at all if I hadn’t challenged myself.  I’ll edit and polish it up and do a launch in the next couple months.   Here’s an actual value added tip that I heard a couple weeks ago.  When you work on a creative process the emotional energy and momentum is shaped like a ‘U’.  When you first start you are all excited and full of energy and you make progress quickly, like the straight side of the ‘U’.   Then when you get part way through you start to realize all the things that need to be worked out and you get mired down.  You start going sideways into distracting offshoot.  You lose your momentum and your excitement for the project.  This is the bent part at the bottom of the ‘U’.   It is here that many people give up on their creative projects.  It becomes work and the light at the end of the tunnel seems so far away.  This is where experience helps.  You might say this phase of the creative project is similar to ‘the dark place’ that I talk about in training cycles.   You have to put your head down, soldier on and push through.   Then as you approach the end of the creative project everything start to coalesce.  It all starts coming together.  Everything becomes clear and it is joyous again as you wrap things up and birth the finished product.  This is the other straight side of the ‘U’.   Remember the ‘U’ process and it will help you stick to your path when things get hard.  It’s been close to 2 years since we rolled out version 3.0 of the RunRunLive podcast.  As always you can find me on Gmail or most social networks as CYKTRussell.  All of my slightly bent U-shaped projects are available at my website RunRunLive.com.   And you know what?   I’ll see you out there.  Music: Tim Armstrong – “Hold on”  Music in this show (All from Music Alley and Podsafe!)  The High Fidelics – “Spy_Smasher” The High Fidelics – “Mondo Rondo” The Vibro-tones – “Nova Express” The Vanes – “Bad Mea or Good Cheese” Benuts – Turn off your radio” The Fighting Cocks – “No Candy” The Fashionistas – Keep it underground” Big D and the Kid’s Table – “Myself” 20 Riverside – “Throwin it down beside the sea” Unsteady – “Tokyo” Bombskare –“I’m so Happy!” Tim Armstrong – “Hold on”
