John Kelly holds a spot in the Guinness World Book of Records, is a Chief Technology Officer, and is the 15th person to finish the Barkley Marathons. John shares stories on how he trained for the Montane Spine Race, surviving the Barkley, and how he still has time for family at the end of the day. Who is John Kelly? John Kelly is an ultrarunning data scientist, father of three with a former triathlon habit. He is the Chief Technology Officer of Envelop Risk, and to support his ability to do that day job with a clear mind he runs, bikes, and hikes. He also used to be a pretty serious water skier and World of Warcraft player.John has been running most of his life. In high school he was a good, but not a great runner. During college and grad school, John essentially took a full decade off from the sport. After grad school, he rediscovered his love of the mountains on a road trip out west that included hiking the John Muir Trail with his incredible wife Jessi.John ended up running the 2013 Marine Corps Marathon, and it was an absolute disaster. It was his first race in 10 years, his longest race by 20 miles, and his training had been horribly insufficient. Of course, immediately after that, John said, “I think I can do better” and signed up for another.John has always been a math and computer person who enjoys finding patterns and automating complex processes. An opportunity at a startup, where there was less bureaucracy and John would have more influence over research and applications, was something he couldn’t walk away from. In the summer of 2015, around the same time that he got serious about ultrarunning and triathlons, as he made the jump to become the Director of Analytics at QxBranch, a data analytics startup in downtown DC. That startup partnered with a company in the UK to create another startup, Envelop Risk, that could better deliver that product to customers and insurance partners.Highlights[3:30] Setting a world record[7:30] The appeal of data science[9:55] Returning to running[15:44] Thriving at the Barkley Marathons [22:30] How ultra resilience transfers to everyday life[30:06] The biggest mistakes people make with marathons[36:15] John’s training regimen[43:50] Sleep optimization for performance endurance[49:45] Use data in the training[55:38] Maintaining work-life balanceResourcesThe Barkley Marathons DocumentaryBarkley MarathonsUpper Kelly CampDavid Roche -Training For Busy AthletesGarmin Forerunner 945The BibleSponsorsCAR.O.LYou don’t have time for that 45 minute jog.

The World's Toughest Ultra-Marathon * Simon Ward and Lazarus Lake

Simon Ward, The Triathlon Coach Podcast Channel

In all sports there are iconic characters and iconic events. In the world of ultra-running, Runner’s World compiled a list of the ‘hardest races in the world’. One of them was the Barkley Marathons and my guest today is the legendary figure who organised Barkley, and many other unique events. He is such an icon that he even has a pseudonym, “Lazarus Lake” (his real name is Gary Cantrell). If you haven’t yet heard of the Barkley Marathons then here are some facts that might get your attention. The race has only ever been completed 18 times. There are minimal directions. Competitors have 60 hours to complete 5 laps of approximately 20 miles. Each laps alternates direction. None of this stops hundreds of hopefuls submitting their entrance essay to Laz every year in the hope that he will pick them to be one of the lucky 40 competitors to try their hand at the event known to disciples as “the race that eats it’s young”. It took me 6 months to get Laz onto the show so I hope that you agree it was worth the wait! When getting an entry is almost as hard as the event itself Who is “Big”? Books with quirky titles and why book pages prove you have completed the full course The inspiration behind the first Barkley Marathons Problem solving and why most of the Barkley finishers have a PhD What makes the Barkley Marathons so tough The Great Virtual Race across Tennessee - The longest virtual event of lockdown? You can find a great documentary about the Barkley Marathons on Netflix Here you can find a link to the article about the Strolling Jim event and Laz’s formula for calculating gender differences for prize money Oustide magazine referred to Laz as a “sadist creature”.

There he runs the MA in Peace Studies, a programme that combines academic rigour with personal reflection and tough and transformative experiential learning.In this interview, we speak about his experiences in Central America as an evaluator of NGO programmes, and how this led him to believe that the trainer of peace workers needed to be changed fundamentally. We speak about the design of the MA, and about the notion of Transrational Peace, Prof Dietrich's theoretical approach that informs his pedagogy and that of a large network of partners worldwide. Finally, we speak about pedagogical innovation in large universities, the need for transdisciplinarity and opportunities to make education as a whole more peaceful. If you want to get more ideas for how to implement these ideas into your educational practice, Prof Dietrich has published a trilogy of books about Transrational Peace, including a volume on breath-oriented, voice-oriented and movement-oriented approaches to training peace workers, that can inspire other educators as well.If you have any comments or questions, I'd be happy to hear from you.

What is it like to participate in the world’s toughest ski race? Would you be up for the challenge? Listen in as I tell you all about it and take you through the journey! Who knows? The Arctic Circle Race just might be the next extreme adventure you’re looking for! Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/podcasts-blog for the complete show notes of every podcast episode. Topics Discussed in this Episode: The Arctic Circle Race and why we did it How we prepared for the race My thoughts on the journey What the experience was like Key Takeaways: Both mental and physical endurance are very much needed to take on this kind of challenge. Incredibly powerful things happen when you push yourself into your discomfort zone. You don’t have to go as big as we’ve gone with The Arctic Circle Race, it might be learning an instrument, going online dating, learning a new language, or playing a sport. Taking on a challenge and achieving something is good for your confidence and your resilience. You get a bit more comfortable in very uncomfortable situations. You feel a little more comfortable with unpredictability, and life is unpredictable. A key part of resilience is not your toughness. It’s not what you can endure. It’s more around if you have the tools to cope with the various things that life throws at you and the emotional bandwidth to deal with them. Action Steps: If you are doing a fundraising event, set a really big target and don’t be afraid to ask people to support you. Do something that takes you into your discomfort zone. Have a think about what that thing might be and make sure it’s the appropriate level of challenge at the appropriate time. Leanne said: “[The Arctic Circle Race] is absolutely brutal. It’s the most extraordinary challenge. It’s more like the world’s toughest herring boning and walking race with bits of skiing.” “If you feel that life is pretty smooth and you want to test yourself in some way, then start to look at what you can do. Kick some ideas around.” Thanks for listening! If you want to ask any questions about this, give any feedback, or perhaps kick out some suggestions for future events that we could do or that you’re thinking of doing, we’d love to hear from you!

In our interview Cory shares some insights about his transition from marathons to ultramarathons and what makes him sign up for a new race.2.) How To Prepare For The Toughest Race In The WorldBadwater is usually referred to as 'the world's hardest ultramarathon'. It is a 135-mile long race that starts 279 feet below sea level in the Badwater Basin located in Death Valley, and ends 8360 feet above sea level at Whitney Portal. As you imagine it is a race that challenges even the toughest and most experienced runners and so it's essential to properly train your body for it. Press 'play' now for the best tips on preparing for a deathly race, like Badwater!3.) The Key To Pushing Through An Ultra RaceDuring an ultramarathon you're likely to face a number of challenges.

He ran 45 miles in 7:23, one minute behind the first place Tristan Steed. Lachlan Dansie finished first at Toughest Mudder Australia. He ran 45 miles in 8:18.

Between 20 and 33% of the world's plant species are currently at risk of global extinction. That's the estimation of recently published studies. So how much will climate change impact on the variety, availability and price of the food on our plates? Botanist James Wong investigates the links between global warming and the rate at which crops are able to adapt and evolve to rapidly changing conditions. Speaking to farmers, plant breeders and scientists at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and elsewhere he hears about the plant world's likely 'winners' and 'losers'. Having deeper roots and more efficient water-use strategies is a clear bonus, and one that's being addressed by British plant scientists who are developing more drought-resistant wheat varieties by breeding them with ancient antecedents of one of the world's most important crops. That's in the UK, but elsewhere around the world, James Wong learns that many plants are facing extinction before they have been recognised as being at risk, and perhaps in some cases even before they have been discovered.

[16:78] GOD brought you out of your mothers' bellies knowing nothing, and He gave you the hearing, the eyesight, and the brains, that you may be appreciative. [31:14] We enjoined the human being to honor his parents. His mother bore him, and the load got heavier and heavier. It takes two years (of intensive care) until weaning. You shall be appreciative of Me, and of your parents. To Me is the ultimate destiny. [17:23] Your Lord has decreed that you shall not worship except Him, and your parents shall be honored. As long as one or both of them live, you shall never say to them, "Uff" (the slightest gesture of annoyance), nor shall you shout at them; you shall treat them amicably. [46:15] We enjoined the human being to honor his parents. His mother bore him arduously, gave birth to him arduously, and took intimate care of him for thirty months. When he reaches maturity, and reaches the age of forty, he should say, "My Lord, direct me to appreciate the blessings You have bestowed upon me and upon my parents, and to do the righteous works that please You. Let my children be righteous as well. I have repented to You; I am a submitter."
