“Get people outside. Let them walk, let them move. And if they can't, do it in a wheelchair. Fresh air and movement—at any level—still have the power to bring joy, connection, and even a little bit of who they once were.”​In this episode of The Ageless Athlete Podcast, I sit down with ultra-endurance athlete, coach, and bestselling author Travis Macy to explore one of the most powerful and personal lessons from his life: how movement, the outdoors, and adventure are helping his father, Mark Macy, live well despite an Alzheimer's diagnosis.Travis has competed in some of the toughest endurance races on the planet, including The Eco-Challenge—where he and his father raced together in Fiji, pushing past limits that most would have thought impossible. But now, he's applying that same endurance mindset to something even more profound: keeping his father active, engaged, and thriving for as long as possible.Through this conversation, we uncover why exercise isn't just about performance—it's about healthspan, and how movement, human connection, and time spent outside can be game-changers for those facing cognitive decline.What You'll Learn in This Episode

I'm excited to share a special episode with you from The Travis Macy Show. Travis recently sat down with Kari Loya for a conversation that will leave you reflecting on your relationship with your father and children. Kari is the author of the book Conversations Across America which is about  a 73-day, 4,600-mile cross-country bike trip Kari took in 2015 with his 75-year-old dad, Merv, who had early-stage Alzheimer's. As I was editing this episode for Travis' show I found myself reflecting about my dad, some of the many adventures we have had together, and how fragile that all felt last summer when he was diagnosed with cancer againThere is a moment at the end of Kari and Travis' chat that just about killed me. I'm reminded how lucky I am to have the relationship with my dad (truly with both my parents) that I have, and if you are lucky enough to feel the same - I hope this conversation moves those same feelings in you. Please be sure to check out the Travis Macy Show for more inspiring conversations like this one - and also grab a copy of Kari's book!  Learn more about Kari LoyaBuy Conversations Across AmericaSupport the Show.

From his website, he is a "Finisher of over 120 ultra endurance events in 17 countries, Travis Macy is a speaker, author, coach, and professional endurance athlete.

Ever wondered how to navigate the complexities of dementia behaviors? Join us and our guest, Krista Montague, the brain behind Dementia Success Path, as we unravel this tangled issue. Krista, with her riches of experience in dementia care, shines a light on the intricacies of caring for dementia patients - from handling physically active patients to dealing with violence in caregiving. We delve into the importance of balancing physical and emotional needs and how fostering one-on-one relationships with recreation therapists or activity directors can revolutionize patient care. The emotional facets of dementia care can be challenging to comprehend. We've all heard of patients clinging to the emotion of an experience, even when the details are lost in the fog of their memory. In this episode, we delve deep into the emotional labyrinth of dementia. We discuss how feelings of loss of control can trigger anger and frustration and why it's crucial for caregivers to understand and empathize with their perspective. As we navigate these emotional waters, we also touch on the impact COVID-19 has had on caregiving facilities and care partners. We share some powerful stories of hope and resilience, too. Hear about Travis Macy and his father, who ran a 100-mile race while combating early-onset Alzheimer's. A testament to the power of compassion and understanding in caregiving, their story is both uplifting and inspiring. Whether you're a caregiver, a family member, or a friend, join us as we share insights and strategies to improve the lives of dementia patients. Armed with Krista's invaluable advice, we hope you will feel more equipped to handle the challenges and enjoy the rewards of caring for a loved one with dementia.

Gentlemen, we are privileged to have not one but TWO incredible human beings with us today. My guests are an inspirational father-son duo, Travis Macy, and his father, Mark "Mace" Macy. For those that don't know, Travis and Mark are legendary endurance athletes. Travis has finished more than 130 ultra-endurance events in 17 countries. And his Dad, Mace, spent thirty years competing in Colorado and around the world in ultra-endurance competitions and is one of the few who have finished all eight Eco-Challenge events. Their secret? The Ultra Mindset - a relentless determination that refuses to bow to any obstacle.  When Mark was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, Travis and his Dad decided to take on the challenge of Eco-Challenge Fiji together - a grueling seven-day, 400-mile marathon of trekking, climbing, biking, and paddling through the jungle - for one final race together, to prove that anything is possible with family by your side. In their new book, A Mile at a Time, Travis and Mace weave together excerpts from Mace's passionate personal journals alongside a first-person narrative by Travis, telling the story of their incredible journey and what they learned along the way. Their story is one of courage, determination, and above all, love. It's a reminder that in the face of adversity, the ties that bind us give us strength and much more. In our conversation, you'll learn: Strategies for fostering resilience and mental fortitude. How to cultivate a sense of unity and teamwork within your family. How the “Ultra Mindset” can help as you juggle between training, family, and mental health. Some of my favorite moments of the conversation: The deep bond between Travis and Mark and their shared love for endurance racing. Choosing love, happiness, and hope. How to fight for your family's future and enjoy quality time in the present.  The benefits of exercise and being in nature has on your mental health. Embracing adversity as a catalyst to greater resilience and self-assuredness. Mace's mantra, “It's all good training.” Insights for those dealing with Alzheimer's.  The comfort of having someone besides you who'll always have your back.

When we think about health, we don't always think about brain health. We don't always fully understand how what we're doing is affecting it. It's sort of out of sight, out of mind... But in this week's podcast, hosted by Travis Macy, we talked to Dr. Edward Park, founder of NeuroReserve about the things we can do proactively to improve brain health and potentially delay cognitive decline. Dr. Park is the Founder and President of NeuroReserve with over 15 years of experience in the research and development (R&D) of biopharmaceuticals, medical devices, and nutritional therapeutics. He has been inspired by his experiences with his father's struggles with Parkinson's disease and dementia for almost two decades before passing away. Before NeuroReserve, Dr. Park led development of nutrition-enabling therapeutics for people with severe under-nourishment caused by cystic fibrosis, short bowel syndrome, pancreatic cancer, and preterm birth. At Alcresta Therapeutics, he successfully directed the end-to-end R&D, testing, regulatory approval (U.S. F.D.A. and E.U.), and launch of RELiZORB, the first-of its-kind combination-enzyme-cartridge to support absorption of critical long-chain polyunsaturated fats for the most malnourished populations. He also worked with major pharmaceutical and health care companies as an R&D advisor with Pricewaterhouse Coopers (PwC) Health Industries Advisory, charting development paths for vaccines, cancer therapeutics, clinical genomics operations, and in vitro diagnostics. Before PwC, Dr. Park worked at Altus Pharmaceuticals (later Alnara Pharmaceuticals) in its commercial and development teams, where he led evaluation of early-and clinical-stage therapeutics for rare diseases, pediatric growth failure, hyperoxaluria and kidney stones, and chronic pancreatitis. Ed started his therapeutics career as an R&D associate at Bristol Myers Squibb. Dr. Park holds a Ph.D. in chemical-biomolecular engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology, where he was awarded a U.S. Department of Defense–National Defense Science and Engineering Graduate (NDSEG) Fellowship, sponsored by the Office of Naval Research.He also holds a M.S. and M.B.A. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Travis is a 2x author, world-class endurance champion across many disciplines including Adventure Racing, 100-mile trail running races like Leadville and Leadman, Snowshoe champion, ski mountaineering, and even Burro racing. He is the host of The Travis Macy Show Podcast and a sought-after speaker including being a TEDx speaker. Travis is also an endurance sports coach and a dad to 2 children. Today's topic also hits close to home for Travis, as his father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.

A Mile at a Time: A Father and Son's Inspiring Alzheimer's Journey of Love, Adventure and Hope by Travis and Mace Macy with Patrick Regan goes on shelves in hardcover and audiobook tomorrow.Mark “Mace” Macy, a thirty-year veteran of ultraendurance competitions, was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's disease in 2018 at age sixty-four. Whatever fears he had of losing his strength, endurance, and independence, Mace moved beyond them and began planning to participate with his son Travis—also a professional endurance athlete—in World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji, a grueling seven-day, 400-mile marathon of trekking, climbing, biking, and paddling through the jungle in 2020. A Mile at a Time tells not just the story of how father and son tackled that epic race but the broader narrative of how the Macy family, led by Mace's relentless optimism and remarkable inner strength, rose to the challenge of dealing with a confounding disease to become closer and stronger in the face of adversity and the unknown.

WATCH THE FILM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0ddwnZ5CEM What compels a person to run 150 miles through the desert at the height of summer? Is it the need for achievement, the competitive instinct, or something more profound—a spiritual need for hardship, for catharsis, and from it, healing?

This episode is brought to you by InsideTracker, one of the most reputable blood testing companies in the world. They were founded in 2009 by aging, genetics, and biometrics scientists to help you analyze your body's data and get a firm idea of how well you're responding to training. Understanding your body's biomarkers, from stress hormones to testosterone to Vitamin D, can help you figure out if you're over-training, under-training, optimally training, or if you have a health issue that might be affecting your running. But the best part is that they give you personalized optimal ranges for each of these biomarkers and a host of ways to improve these markers through diet, lifestyle, or exercise changes. I've gotten several Ultimate tests from them and the process is simple, easy, and very eye-opening if you haven't done a deep dive on your biomarkers yet.  Of all the investments you can make in your running, this one is like getting a detailed checkup or regularly scheduled maintenance for your internal physiology. I scheduled another Ultimate test for myself soon and it'll be interesting to compare with the test I got in February. Get yours today! Thank You Athletic Greens!
