Using their diverse musical backgrounds and tastes, Spunj believes in making their live shows not just a musical performance, but an experience. The band incorporates classic songwriting with sections of improvisation to seamlessly weave from genre to genre while keeping the energy high and always danceable.

How can we find meaning and purpose in our lives? And what does a meaningful life really look like? Woven through personal stories and the lens of science, this episode is a reflection of my own search for meaning - and an invitation for you to do the same. As I traverse the peaks and valleys of my own journey, racing through YakAttack, the highest mountain bike race on Earth in Nepal, and pursuing a Masters of Applied Positive Psychology, I unravel the threads of resilience, personal growth, and the transformative power of storytelling. Here are some key takeaways: Exploring meaning by investing in understanding our own experiences and storytelling. How to find purpose through proactive exploration, reactive experiences, and social learning from others. Choosing your attitude and associated actions is deeply meaningful for personal agency Pushing limits through challenges like endurance races can facilitate feelings of transcendence and connection. Why having a meaningful life is not the same as a happy life.

On today's episode of Salmon & Trout Fishing for Noobs, er we mean, Bass Fishing for Noobs, Susie and Sean welcome Michael Muniz, aka ChiCity Yaker to the show. Michael is a seasoned kayak angler, and salmon fishing angler at that. We begin with Michael talking about how he first started getting into kayak fishing 2013, and then how he transitioned into chasing after salmon/trout after learning from fellow anglers who had been fishing for salmon for many years. He first began in a paddle kayak on lake Michigan and the rush of the big water, big fish, and putting the pieces together to catch at 25+lb salmon set the hook for his passion for this species. He also began his Youtube channel which was mostly for knowledge and to look back and gain more insight from the experiences. Today he focuses on being a "coach" and/or guide for others who are interested in trying to fish for salmon/trout from a kayak for the first time. We talk about how someone can get started to go fishing for salmon with gear someone might already have, and what lures, gear, and other equipment are good to have to get started. The greatest benefit of fishing for salmon/trout is that they can be fished practically year round on Lake Michigan, and many other species could be caught as well. Michael goes into some more details about using torpedo weights, dodgers/flies, flashers, spoons, line, lead core, reels with line counters, and rods. Tune in for this informational and educational segment to get you on the water to catch your next salmon/trout from Lake Michigain!

Nirjala Tamrakar is from Nepal and from 2001 to 2012, she was known as the Mountain Queen, because she was the first female Nepalese Mountain Biking Champion. She was also the first Nepalese woman to take part in a UCI Mountain Bike World Cup race, in France in 2012 and she's done the World's highest endurance event, the Yak Attack. Now in her early 40s, she's a mum of two, she moved to the UK with her British husband Dan in the middle of lockdown in late 2020. And in 2021, she became the first Nepalese woman to complete an iron distance triathlon, when she did the UK Ultimate Triathlon, in Whitchurch. You'll hear: 10:10 Start of the interview with Nirjala, when we hear about her growing up in Kathmandu in Nepal ' I was a bookworm and there wasn't any physical activity to do so I didn't do any physical activity growing up. It was only study, study.' 13:00 Nirjala explains who she started to do yoga and how she heard about a bike race and then becoming Nepal Mountain Biking Champion. 16:00 The reaction of her friends and family as Nirjala got into Mountain Biking. 'why do you go in the muddy road, what do you get from it? You look insane, there is no logic in it. I wanted to follow my passion. I didn't want to do normal work in an office. I wanted to become something big, not normal and I wanted to leave my legacy. 19:34 Nirjala puts some of her success down to her childhood, which involved doing all of the house work. 'We had to do everything by hand. We had to carry water, we had a house made of mud and we had to clean the floor with cow dung. So I was stronger'. 25:00 We talk about changing attitudes for mothers in Nepal and how there is more encouragement for women to stay fit and healthy. 27:00 Nirjala talks about her 'mixed' feelings when she competed at a UCI World Cup in France ' my ranking was like 2,000+ in the World. Their preparation was huge. They had huge vans with every equipment. I was just their with my husband and I felt so small. But he said 'Be proud of yourself'. 33:00 We talk about cycling at high altitude and the side effects of altitude sickness 'even if you are very very fit, you can still struggle with altitude sickness. You get all sorts of symptoms and you can lose your mind. If you don't decide what to do at the right time, it can be life threatening.' 36:00 Nirjala explains why she didn't quit the 'Yak Attack' Race and the mental struggles she faced and how she kept going. 'when you have no other option, you have to be strong' 37:00 Nirjala on overcoming her fear of open water swimming to become the first Nepalese female to complete an iron distance triathlon. 'This was a big fantasy. I didn't know if I could do it or not. But I wanted to and it was a big motivating factor to be the first Nepalese female.' 44:00 Nirjala's message for the endurance community in Nepal and how the stereotypes have changed. 'All of the men used to say 'you can't do this, when are you quitting?' But they don't do it anymore, there is a huge MTB craze in Nepal and people are riding all of the time to ride and have the experience of Nepal. If you keep following your passion, you can reach it.'

Hey folks! In this episode of the Ancap Barber Shop, we are joined by the yak farming, pig chasing, well digging wonder himself… Nick Hazelton! Nick is back to join us for the first time in years and we couldn’t be more excited to let you tune in to our conversation! Yak attack! I really wanted to put that in the introduction but I feel like it’s not professional enough. Like it might degrade our podcasting integrity in some way. So I’ll be saying it intermittently throughout the show notes that nobody reads. Google reads them, that’s why we right them. Yak attack! Anyways, we start by discussing a scene from the movie “the Phantom” or “Phantom” I can’t remember but the bad guy played by Treet Williams I think, has a microscope contraption that’s really an eye-piercing booby trap. He tells the other dude to look at a slide he’s been inspecting. The guy says he can’t see anything so the villain instructs him to adjust the focus… BLAMO! Razor blades to the eyeballs! Pretty sick stuff. It was probably a bit much for a movie that kids would see and it’s certainly burned into my memory. Yak attack! Adam refers to Shure sm57s at “6-year-old technology”. what a disappointing cohost. Nick praises the Ancap Barber Shop as his favorite libertarian podcast. I’m sure he says that to everyone, but it made us feel good. We talk about gardening. I’m bad at it, Adam’s better. I’m pretty sure Nick is the authority between the three of us. We learn that yaks get frightened if you throw a bunch of sticks up in the air. Yaks aren’t very aggressive but if you’re in a tight spot this yak tidbit might be helpful. Talking about music and musicians, Nick hosts a local music venue. Nick refuses to disrobe because of the high number of windows in his vicinity. Bell peppers suck if you have a strong opinion about bell peppers pound off in the comments. We talking wells, well water, digging wells, well depth. We learn that Oregon borders the ocean on the WEST SIDE. “Van nomad-ism” sounds a lot cooler than “van life”. We talk about the coronavirus for a while. A good bit of talk about work boots. Kratom is federally legal but illegal in Alabama. what kind of bullshit is that? Some good Cracker Barrel discussion. Adam pulls his butt out to show off a wheely boarding injury. We pontificate the ins and out of restaurant work. Yak Attack! Well, I think that about wraps her up.

This is an episode of Crush It Mondays. Each week, I'll bring to you an inspiring message, habit, or contemplation to get your week off to a powerful start. In this week's episode, I want to talk about imposter syndrome. I'm sure most of you have heard this term before, but let's define it. It's characterized by internally refusing to believe you are as good, accomplished, competent, or capable as others perceive you to be. Basically, you feel like you're a fraud or that you just got lucky to get to be where you're at. You won by accident or you were promoted by luck. People with imposter syndrome tend to overwork themselves to ensure they are keeping up and have feelings of inferiority, even when others consider them experts. What is dangerous about this way of thinking is that you are afraid to step off the hectic treadmill of hard work because you're afraid everything will fall apart. People with imposter syndrome have a difficult time celebrating their success or accepting their achievements. If you recognize some of this behavior in yourself, how do you start improving on it? First is to know that there are a ton of people that you look up to who also feel imposter syndrome- it's more common than you'd think! In fact, it was reported that 70% of people experience Imposter Syndrome! Show vulnerability. Something that has been really helpful for me is showing vulnerability. It's scary at first because you're putting it out there that you aren't as perfect as people think you are, that you make mistakes, that sometimes you don't know exactly what you're doing... but instead of others thinking - "oh! I knew that person as a phony!" Chances are, they'll respect you even more. It humanizes you, but that doesn't make you less than. It also will help you practice more self-compassion when you feel like you can be yourself and show all parts of what you're doing, not just the highlight reel of your successes. People want to share in the ups and downs of your journey and the downs don't make you an imposter. An example of a time I showed vulnerability when it truly scared me to do it was when I took a video of myself crying uncontrollably in the hardest race I had ever done to that date- the Yak Attack in Nepal. I did a TED Talk about it and how to define success in your life. Putting a video online and later, in a TED Talk of me crying like this still makes my chest tighten. Crying publicly and even in front of friends or family is something I do not do. I've never wanted to share that side of me, but as terrifying as it was to share have this video live on the internet, it was amazing how powerful and impactful it was. You gain strength and can positively impact others through vulnerability. If self-critical thoughts pop up and your imposter brain starts taking over, don't fight the thought. Use the meditation technique of RAIN- Recognize, Allow, Investigate, Non-Identification. Recognize it, take a moment to accept it and allow it to be there, ask yourself if it's really true and where you might feel it in your body, and last - say something to yourself like "this is just a thought, it is not me. I'm separate from this thought. I'm okay. It's okay." Be aware of when you are comparing yourself and it brings up feelings of inferiority. Personally, this happens when I'm looking at social media. I see people who seem to be racing more, training harder, better at promoting their podcast, or who seem to have it together more than me. It feels icky when I look at it from an "I feel like I'm not enough because of this other person's post." I don't always feel that way, but there are vulnerable moments throughout our day where a photo or video can impact us in different ways. If I find myself looking at social media with my comparison lens, I make myself close the app. Delete it for the day if you have to. Use social media for inspiration and connection, not to measure your self-worth. As Sharon Salzberg says, "Comparison is dangerous when you try to reference who you are compared to someone else's status or achievements." Do you really need to work that hard and are you addicted to validation? This was a new concept I learned after reading upcoming podcast guest David Roche's article on TrailRunnerMag.com. He talked about how imposter syndrome affects athletes. He used examples of how overworking is due to insecurities- like overtraining in athletic endeavors or if you win, you think you just got lucky. I also interpreted this article to imposter syndrome manifesting itself as workaholism in other areas. It really resonated with me because I'm prone to overworking because I'm afraid I'll fall behind, I feel like I'm not doing enough and if I stop I'll fall way behind, and then it'll just be proof to everyone around me that I'm actually not good enough. It's been interesting to recognize in myself because I will confidently take on new roles (I did a career transition from having my Master's in Electrical Engineering to taking on a large marketing role with no experience). Same goes when people ask me how I became a speaker or a writer, or even an athlete- I just did it and didn't worry about the label, but imposter syndrome rears its head in the form of "I must work harder and continue to do more and more." I truly worry about falling behind and even though this year, I've been really good at creating time to "do nothing," it still makes me feel anxious. In David's article, he had two great reminders- "Growth happens in empty spaces" and " remember that there is no light at the end of the tunnel, just more tunnel." There will be no endpoint... you can be world champion of your discipline, have accomplished more than you had ever dreamed, but it still won't feel like enough. You can't outrun those feelings of not-enoughness by working hard or achieving more. Take it from me... hard life lesson I have to remind myself always. So if you feel sucked into the "I must achieve more or work harder to prove I'm good..." PAUSE. Remind yourself that it won't help. Ask yourself what is really important or introduce relationships or hobbies into your life that you don't use to validate yourself. Recognize a fixed mindset and perfectionist tendencies. Remember that you aren't born with a set amount of talent- that you can change. Also realize that it's okay to ask for help, even if you're viewed as an expert. It's okay to say "I don't know." It's not proof that you aren't good at something- in fact, it shows the opposite. You're good at it because you are always willing to learn more. Some people will avoid tasks all together because they're afraid it'll be proof they aren't good enough. This goes back to vulnerability- it doesn't mean you're a fraud if you don't know all the answers or need help. It makes you even more real. Remember that you are not your career label, you are not your accomplishments, you are not defined by how fast you are. You are awesome, loveable and amazing for the human being that you are, not for what you have achieved. Achieving more will not make people love you more (something I struggle to remind myself!) It's okay to have feelings of imposter syndrome, but by recognizing them, it'll help accept and move past it in the moment so you can internally remember that you are great no matter what.

Episode 34: Tyler McMahon is an entrepreneur based in Colorado, USA and Kathmandu, Nepal. He graduated in 2007 from Colorado College with a degree in Economics focused on Environmental and Water Resource Economics. During this, in 2006 he studied abroad on the School for International Training (SIT) Nepal program and developed a proposal for a Fulbright Scholarship on the Economics of Urban Rainwater Harvesting in the Kathmandu Valley, which he won and went back to Nepal in 2007-2008. After this he worked for the UN World Food Progamme in Nepal on monitoring and evaluation and sustainability, which included the largest urban solar system in Kathmandu which set a trend for urban solar. In 2011, wanting to pursue the research from his Fulbright more and the fact that there was a market, need and few suppliers for rainwater harvesting, he started pitching people on the concept. Tyler McMahon, Suman Shakya, and Hem Narayan Shrestha and two others started SmartPaani in September 2011. On the side he races mountain bikes and trail runs, including competing the world's highest and one of the hardest mountain bike stage races, The Yak Attack, 6 times. This episode's motto: "Cheap in the short run is expensive in the long run." Tyler's description of Smartpaani: "SmartPaani (http://smartpaani.com) started in Nepal in 2011, a direct result of my Fulbright (07-08) research on the economics of urban rainwater harvesting and subsequent efforts to get US properties to adopt it as well, along with my work at the UN World Food Programme on sustainability. The company provides a complete set of sustainable water management solutions: rainwater harvesting, water filtration, and wastewater treatment and recycling. These are primarily designed and built in Nepal, with a few products imported to complete the service offering. To date the company has reached over 2000 clients. These include rainwater harvesting systems that collect 50 million liters and recharge 150 million liters back into the ground regularly. Our clean water systems at schools cover more than 35,000 students and our wastewater treatment systems treat and recycle more than 20,000 liters daily. Finally our water filtration system for businesses, resorts and outdoor event management have eliminated the need for more than 40,000 plastic water bottles. Our clients range from households, schools, and larger companies and industries including being the primary urban partner for Coca Cola's water neutrality project. SmartPaani's systems have also been instrumental in one of the most eco-friendly resorts in Asia, Pavilions Himalaya and recently in the new Green School for Blink Now Foundation/Kopila Valley where they both water 3 times before it leaves the premises. The company's ability to address SDG #6 through sustainable water supply access, clean/safe drinking water, and wastewater treatment is unique and has won it recognition through Case Western University's Aim2Flourish award in 2017 and University of Michigan's Positive Business Award in 2018." (The company pitch is a bit long, but trying to work out a pitch that captures our array of services and unique ability to attack the urban and even rural clean water issue with a multi-pronged approach)."
If you're an endurance athlete, you've probably thought about altitude. I grew up in Albuquerque, NM and lived in Colorado for my 20s. I never thought about altitude training until I did the highest mountain bike race in the world in 2011. The race was a 10 day race in Nepal called the Yak Attack that topped out at 17,769'. I admit I still wasn't fully acquainted with the data of training at altitude. I knew how dangerous the symptoms of acute mountain sickness or altitude sickness could be. In fact, it was my primary fear for tackling this race and wanting to be the first woman to ever finish. You can watch my TED Talk about it. I started spending a lot of time in BC in 2013 and eventually moved in 2014. That also meant I moved from living at altitude my entire life to 1,000' where I still live. Racing in Colorado became a problem- I could only race in third gear. It was frustrating. I took it upon myself to learn as much as I could about potentially prepping for altitude and used myself as a guinea pig in some hypoxic experiments. They were only moderately successful. It still didn't really answer my question, "Can you train for altitude?" If you're an avid listener of this podcast, then you might have heard my heat training series with Dr. Stephen Cheung in one episode and Luke Way and Stacey Shand in a second follow-up episode. Today, I sat down with Dr. Cheung for a second time. This time, we talked about altitude. Dr. Cheung is not only one of the world's top authorities on environmental physiology, but he is an avid cyclist himself. If you want to really geek out, get his textbook "Advanced Environmental Physiology." Dr. Cheung is a professor at Brock University in the Department of Kinesiology. He also is an author of a few other books: Cutting-Edge Cycling, and Cycling Science. If that doesn't keep him busy enough, he is the Sport Science & Training editor for www.pezcyclingnews.com. In this episode, you'll learn what happens to your body at altitude, if there is an ideal time to get to an event beforehand, the efficacy of altitude tents, if there is any data behind hypoxic training, and what the best configuration for ideal training is in terms of sleeping high and training low. Topics Discussed in the Podcast what happens to your body at altitude variability between individuals is there an ideal time to get to an event at altitude beforehand? train low, sleep high or train high, sleep high? do altitude tents work? can you use hypoxic respiratory training for altitude?

And hang around for the end of the show, where we bring back a Veteran's Day GEM from the "Brooklyn GOP Radio" days that involves our own "Yak Attack" and some horrible singing of a beautiful patriotic standard (Russ made us do it.)

YakAttack has sponsored Extreme Kayak Fishing Tournament since 2013 and has seen first hand the growth of the series year after year. Our second guest is the Pier King of South Florida. He will go over everything about Pier fishing in Florida. When the weather sucks and anglers cant get offshore this could be a option.
Alberto makes Steve mad because he has plans on a weekend that Steve wants to go to Vegas. Steve wants to be dominated by a woman. Eddie enjoyed the night time parade at Disneyland. Plus we talk to singer/songwriter Erica McKenzie and have another Yak Attack segment.
Alberto almost makes Steve spit up his drink. Steve makes Alberto uncomfortable with his new Facebook page. Eddie skips out on the show at the last minute. Will tries to debate Steve on Donald Trump's border wall. Plus we have another Yak Attack segment and talk about Will's love affair with Leo DiCaprio.
Jeff, Dave, Charles, Sean, Bryan AND Rachel join me for this explicit Yak Attack episode since I need more time to get the second Monster Music Mania episode done. I can’t remember the last time we had a group this big on the show and, I’ll be honest, it was more difficult to rein in the conversation […]

RunRunLive 4.0 Episode 4-301, Dave McGillivray and Heart Disease in Runners (Audio: link) [audio:http://www.RunRunLive.com/PodcastEpisodes/epi4301.mp3] Link epi4301.mp3 Intro Bumper: Intro: Prelude: When I started the RunRunLive Podcast in July of 1857 it was a different world. I know it hasn’t been 150 years but it does seem like a long time ago. Now here we are at the sharp and dangerous blade edge of another season or edition or chapter – whatever you want to call it. I chose the meme of running plus living not to show the dichotomy or separation of the two but to highlight the synergy and union of them. When you combine endurance sports into your life one plus one equals 3. Running has opened up worlds for me. I like to say it has transformed me, but that isn’t quite the right way to put it. I wasn’t a 300 pound diabetic asthmatic on the edge of physical extinction. I was a normal, family guy stuck instead in the corporate grindwheel of modern existence. Maybe that’s a form of existential extinction. Running didn’t so much transform me as it enabled me to realize my own potential. It snapped the strictures that tied me down and allowed me to transcend. It broke my frame of reference and allowed my light to leak out into the world in a new way. And that, my friends is what I still want to do. I want you to come see the light. We live in a time of great epidemic. I don’t mean Ebola or Aids. I mean the epidemic of people not believing in themselves, not believing in positive change and not trying because they are constantly being told that they can’t make a difference. You can make a difference. You can make a difference in your own life and in the lives of others by what you do, what you say and how you approach life. I can make a difference too, for you, for me and for those tiny humans that I brought into this world. Frankly, I don’t care if you run or jog or walk or wriggle like a snake to Elvis love songs. What concerns me is that you do nothing. That you think small. That you feel like you have nothing to give. That it has all been done. That you’re not smart enough, not fast enough, not rich enough or not talented enough to make a difference in this world of ours. What scares me is that you are afraid to try. If all you can offer is a smile or a hug then please for God’s sake give it today, give it now, because that is a tremendous gift that is in short supply. 90% of my days go by without either! What can I give? What can RunRunLive give? What small stone can we toss into the shimmering pool of humanity? What ripples can we make? For this version of the Podcast we will continue in mostly the same vein as version 3. I’ll structure it to fit in to a less-than-one-hour envelope. I’ll retain the 20+ minute interview with someone who can show us the achievement of honest synergy. I’m going to move the running tips segment to the front half of the show and try to make it useful to you. Likewise I’ll retain the life skills segment that I think many people like and move that to the back half. I’ll keep up the intro and the outro comments. Not that you care so much about what is going in on my life, but just some context and frame and storytelling to glue it all together. I’m not going to drop in any more music, even though I can’t for the life of me understand why some of you apparently hate punk rock and ska… That’s it, no big changes, just a little shuffling. Then why would I pause and take this time to ponder a new format? This is topic that deserves more ink, but in short, because I believe in the power of introspection. At some point as we draw into the New Year you should pause for introspection on your life and goals and direction too. It can ignite an epiphany. I reserve the right to change my mind. I reserve the right to change your mind as well. Are you ready to get out there? Intro: Hello, my friends and welcome to the RunRunLive 4.0 podcast. My name, is Chris, actually Christopher, which, if you want to talk about morphemes, is Greek for Christ Carrier and I’ve missed you. Seems like ages since we have chatted. What have I been up to? There is so much that It’s hard to summarize. On the life front I quit my job, left my family and moved to a 50 acre ranch in Pioneer Kansas to raise yaks full time. It’s a peaceful plot of land amongst the industrial farms straddling Spring Creek. I got myself 50 head of good breeding yaks. The running is good too and I’ve constructed some interesting trails but there aren’t a whole lot of hills. The professional hit man business was fairly frantic throughout the fall so I spent a lot of time on the road. Unfortunately, while I was gone the yaks went feral and now I have to be careful because they’ve organized and plot attacks against me when I leave the house. It can be startling when you’re lost in the peaceful reverie of a long run and one of those crazed, shaggy-headed beasts comes crashing out of the alfalfa at you. ‘Yak Attack’ would be a good name for a band. But – that’s all personal fluff and stuff – you don’t care about that. On the running side I’ve just been working on maintaining my base and staying healthy since my 15 minutes of fame at the New York City Marathon. I tried an experiment a couple weeks ago to see if I could run or more than an hour every day for 7 days straight. Just to see if I could take the load. The runs felt pretty good but my old and angry nemesis the plantar fasciitis flared up by day five and I aborted that flight of fancy. Kudos to me to be able to set that quest aside and not hurt myself. I’ve been logging most of my runs in the woods with Buddy the old Wonder Dog. Including a nice nighttime headlamp run for 1:30 the day after the Thanksgiving snow storm. I’ve got a good base and I’m not injured. We’re going to talk a bit about running in the snow in the first bit of today’s episode. Poor Buddy was pretty beat up by that run. He’s definitely slowing down. He was standing at the top of the stairs looking at them the way I look at them the day after a hard marathon. He still gets pissed if I don’t take him. I won’t take him on the road anymore, only the trails, off lease so he can pace himself. If the hikers want to yell at me for having him off leash they can bite me. That dog is 80 years old and still gets after it like a pro. They should be so lucky when they’re his age. The other big adventure I’ve had this fall is around my own advancing decrepitude. I know, it’s all relative, you’re rolling your eyes, here’s this running geek who does back to back marathons in October complaining about fitness and performance. Truth is I haven’t been able to muster a qualifying race since, I think, Boston 2011. That’s a long time ago. I’m still; looking for race fitness since taking the 18 months or so off with the plantar fasciitis. This fall I’ve taken the time to schedule all my general maintenance and upkeep appointments. I got a physical, had my bloodwork done and got my eyes checked. Basically checking the tire pressure and the oil. Since I’m past the half-century mark my doctor scheduled me for a colonoscopy. Which is a funny story. Meanwhile, I’ve been bugged by my heart rate wigging out on me in long hard efforts so I asked him to set me up with a cardio appointment as well. Not because anything is overtly wrong, just to make sure. I don’t want to go out for a run and not come back. I owe to the yaks. If the answer is “you’re old” I’m ok with that, I just want to be safe. Which plays into our interview of Dave McGilivary today about his adventures with heart disease. I spent a week ‘prepping’ for the colonoscopy, which is fairly miserable and involves a diet that is antithetical to what I’m used to, then slamming a variety of laxatives in large doses. They want your colon to be squeaky clean when they go in there with their camera on a stick. In the hospital, lying naked on a gurney, waiting for the anesthesiologist, I’m a bit nervous. My resting heart rate, as you know is normally around 40 beats per minute. Since I’m nervous I start doing some breathing meditation and it drops to 34-35. Alarms are going off from the leads they have stuck on me. The anesthesiologist does an EKG to make sure I’m not dying. My heart, they tell me, stops beating for up to 2.5 seconds at a time. I’m like, ‘yeah, so?’ What do you want it to be? I can control it by thinking about it. The colon guy wants to go ahead but the cardiologist on call says ‘no’. 4 days of prep, 3 hours of lying around naked in the hospital with leads stuck on me, and they send me home. The irony here is that I was by far the healthiest person in that place. They’re wheeling in a parade of sick people, but I’m too fucking healthy to get a camera stuck quip my ass. The world is a crazy place. Since then I’ve been to the cardio and had the stress test and echo cardiogram that show there’s nothing wrong with my heart. I think I have a bit of an arrhythmia in one of my valve when I surge after 40 minutes of running. That’s what my data shows but they don’t want to see my data. Their 20 minute stress test was a nice hill workout but hardly long enough to stimulate the symptoms I’m seeing. We’ll see what the clowns in this circus think when I go back for my consult before Christmas. Until that point I’m just going to keep doing what I do. Every day above ground is sacred. Every footfall crunching the snow, clutching the ground and driving me forward is a sacred act that I savor. On with the show! (feels good to say that again my friends) Section one - Running tips Cold and snow running - http://runrunlive.com/snow-ho-ho Voices of reason – the interviews Dave McGillivray Dave McGillivray is a U.S.-based race director, philanthropist, author and athlete. In 1978, he ran across the U.S. to benefit the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.[1] Presently he is race director of the B.A.A. Boston Marathon and his team at DMSE, Inc. have organized numerous mass participatory fundraising endurance events since he founded it in 1981. Here are a few of his many career highlights: In 1978, McGillivray ran across the U.S. from Medford, Oregon to his hometown of Medford, Mass., covering a total distance of 3,452 miles and ending to a standing ovation in Fenway Park. His effort raised thousands of dollars for the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Two years later, he ran 1,520 miles from Winter Haven, Fla., to Boston to raise money for the Jimmy Fund, even meeting with President Jimmy Carter at the White House during the run. In 1982, McGillivray ran the Boston Marathon in 3:14 while blindfolded and being escorted by two guides to raise more than $10,000 for the Carroll Center for the Blind in Newton, Mass. McGillivray’s many endurance events for charity are legendary, including running 120 miles in 24 hours thru 31 Mass. cities; an 86-story, 1,575-step run up Empire State Building in 13 minutes and 27 seconds; and running, cycling and swimming 1,522 miles thru six New England states while raising $55,000 for the Jimmy Fund. In 2003, McGillivray created the DMSE Children’s Fitness Foundation to support non-profit organizations that use running to promote physical fitness in children and help solve the epidemic of childhood obesity. In 2004, McGillivray and a team of veteran marathon runners journeyed across the country following the same path he took in 1978, raising more than $300,000 for five charities benefiting children. Each year he runs his birthday age in miles, starting when he was 12, and has not missed one yet. He was born on Aug. 22, 1954 – you can do the math. The race director of the Boston Marathon as well as an accomplished runner, McGillivray has run the marathon each year since 1973. For 16 years he ran it with all the other runners and since he began working with the race in 1988 he has run the course afterwards. His 2006 book, “The Last Pick”, which he co-wrote with Linda Glass Fechter, chronicles his childhood and career as the last pick for team sports because of his small stature, motivating readers to never underestimate their own ability to set and achieve goals. Order here on Amazon. A skilled motivational speaker, McGillivray has displayed his signature ability to engage and inspire listeners to more than 1,600 audiences from corporate executives to high school students. McGillivray has received numerous awards – valedictorian at both his high school and college, 2005 Running USA Hall of Champions, 2007 Runner’s World Heroes of Running Award, the 2010 Fleet Feet Lifetime Commitment to Running Award, 2010 Ron Burton Community Service Award, the 2011 Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center's 2011 100 list, and inducted into the USA Triathlon Hall of Fame in 2011 and the prestigious "Jimmy Award" by the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute for 30 years of contributing time and expertise to help raise millions for cancer research and treatment. McGillivray has logged more than 150,000 miles, most for charity, raising millions for worthy causes. He’s completed 126 marathons and competed in eight Hawaii Ironman Triathlons. His personal bests? Marathon: 2:29:58 and for the Ironman: 10:36:42 Section two – Life Skills Working on the important stuff - http://runrunlive.com/the-efficiency-trap Outro And so it goes. It’s a momentum thing, isn’t it my friends? If you can start you can keep going and soon repetition becomes habit and habit becomes a body of work. I have to admit it was hard to get this jump started again – but now that we have it should get easier. Just finished the book “Running with the Buffaloes”. It documents a season of the Colorado University cross country team. It is the year that Adam Goucher won the NCAA meet beating out Abdi Abdirahman and Bernard Lagat. What I found interesting was the training they went through. These are 20 year old kids, mind you. They were running 100+ mile weeks, in singles all through the summer leading into the season and held that volume in the 80’s and 90’s right through the season. As they came into the racing season they layered on a bunch of high quality anaerobic work as well. Really shows you what you can get out of your machine if you do the work. On the flip side most of these guys were injured. Adam made the Olympic trials but ended up having to retire early. Abdi is still out there and ran the Olympic marathon with Meb in London 2012 – he DNF’ed. Adam’s wife Kara is still out there too. She came in 11th to Shalane’s 10th in London. It was a good book if you’re a running geek and readable in the sense that it has a real narrative vs just the technical bits. I raced the Mill Cities Relay last Sunday with my club and had a great race. I did a warm up of 2.5 miles at around an 8:05 pace then raced the 9.5 mile leg at a sub 7:30 – which I felt pretty good about. I don’t race that much anymore so it’s hard to gauge my fitness. Next weekend, Dec. 21st Brian and I are putting on the 2nd annual Groton Marathon. This is a self-supported 26.2 mile run around my home town of Groton Mass. No big thing just a bunch of us out having a long run and having fun. You folks are more than welcome to come and run all or part of it with us. Shoot me note if you’re interested. I was going to go down to Atlanta for the Jeff Galloway ½ this weekend but my life is just too busy to pull it off and I’ve been spending too many weekends on the road this fall. I’m a bit fried. I have, believe it or not a cruise coming up in January. We’ll see how I can navigate that and my training. I’m going to have to miss my favorite New Year’s Day race – the hangover classic up in Salisbury with its ocean plunge in the Atlantic. The ‘How to qualify for the Boston Marathon in 12 weeks’ is in editing. Thanks for all the inquiries. I’m shooting to get a promotional copy out by the end of the calendar year and you all can help me promote it and then a launch in February. It’s been fun writing all this down, but challenging as well, because I really don’t have room for more projects in my life! But, I have to follow my own advice and get something done. The Groton Marathon will be my 48th marathon. Currently I’d love to find another race in January or February to be my 49th marathon so I can run Boston this year as my 50th. It’s got a nice symmetry to it, right? As for Boston I got a charity number again and I’ll be running for the Hoyts even though Dick has retired from Boston. I’m not sure if someone else is going to be pushing Ricky this year or not. Those are my plans, as nebulous as they are, for now. Remember celebrate every day and live in the now because this could very well be as good as it gets. And I’ll see you out there.

Not because anything is overtly wrong, just to make sure. I don't want to go out for a run and not come back. I owe to the yaks. If the answer is “you're old” I'm ok with that, I just want to be safe. Which plays into our interview of Dave McGilivary today about his adventures with heart disease. I spent a week ‘prepping' for the colonoscopy, which is fairly miserable and involves a diet that is antithetical to what I'm used to, then slamming a variety of laxatives in large doses. They want your colon to be squeaky clean when they go in there with their camera on a stick. In the hospital, lying naked on a gurney, waiting for the anesthesiologist, I'm a bit nervous. My resting heart rate, as you know is normally around 40 beats per minute. Since I'm nervous I start doing some breathing meditation and it drops to 34-35. Alarms are going off from the leads they have stuck on me. The anesthesiologist does an EKG to make sure I'm not dying. My heart, they tell me, stops beating for up to 2.5 seconds at a time. I'm like, ‘yeah, so?' What do you want it to be? I can control it by thinking about it. The colon guy wants to go ahead but the cardiologist on call says ‘no'. 4 days of prep, 3 hours of lying around naked in the hospital with leads stuck on me, and they send me home. The irony here is that I was by far the healthiest person in that place. They're wheeling in a parade of sick people, but I'm too fucking healthy to get a camera stuck quip my ass. The world is a crazy place. Since then I've been to the cardio and had the stress test and echo cardiogram that show there's nothing wrong with my heart. I think I have a bit of an arrhythmia in one of my valve when I surge after 40 minutes of running. That's what my data shows but they don't want to see my data. Their 20 minute stress test was a nice hill workout but hardly long enough to stimulate the symptoms I'm seeing. We'll see what the clowns in this circus think when I go back for my consult before Christmas. Until that point I'm just going to keep doing what I do. Every day above ground is sacred. Every footfall crunching the snow, clutching the ground and driving me forward is a sacred act that I savor. On with the show! (feels good to say that again my friends) Section one - Running tips Cold and snow running - http://runrunlive.com/snow-ho-ho Voices of reason – the interviews Dave McGillivray Dave McGillivray is a U.S.-based race director, philanthropist, author and athlete. In 1978, he ran across the U.S. to benefit the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.[1] Presently he is race director of the B.A.A. Boston Marathon and his team at DMSE, Inc. have organized numerous mass participatory fundraising endurance events since he founded it in 1981. Here are a few of his many career highlights: In 1978, McGillivray ran across the U.S. from Medford, Oregon to his hometown of Medford, Mass., covering a total distance of 3,452 miles and ending to a standing ovation in Fenway Park. His effort raised thousands of dollars for the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. Two years later, he ran 1,520 miles from Winter Haven, Fla., to Boston to raise money for the Jimmy Fund, even meeting with President Jimmy Carter at the White House during the run. In 1982, McGillivray ran the Boston Marathon in 3:14 while blindfolded and being escorted by two guides to raise more than $10,000 for the Carroll Center for the Blind in Newton, Mass. McGillivray's many endurance events for charity are legendary, including running 120 miles in 24 hours thru 31 Mass. cities; an 86-story, 1,575-step run up Empire State Building in 13 minutes and 27 seconds; and running, cycling and swimming 1,522 miles thru six New England states while raising $55,000 for the Jimmy Fund. In 2003, McGillivray created the DMSE Children's Fitness Foundation to support non-profit organizations that use running to promote physical fitness in children and help solve the epidemic of childhood obesity. In 2004, McGillivray and a team of veteran marathon runners journeyed across the country following the same path he took in 1978, raising more than $300,000 for five charities benefiting children. Each year he runs his birthday age in miles, starting when he was 12, and has not missed one yet. He was born on Aug. 22, 1954 – you can do the math. The race director of the Boston Marathon as well as an accomplished runner, McGillivray has run the marathon each year since 1973. For 16 years he ran it with all the other runners and since he began working with the race in 1988 he has run the course afterwards. His 2006 book, “The Last Pick”, which he co-wrote with Linda Glass Fechter, chronicles his childhood and career as the last pick for team sports because of his small stature, motivating readers to never underestimate their own ability to set and achieve goals. Order here on Amazon. A skilled motivational speaker, McGillivray has displayed his signature ability to engage and inspire listeners to more than 1,600 audiences from corporate executives to high school students. McGillivray has received numerous awards – valedictorian at both his high school and college, 2005 Running USA Hall of Champions, 2007 Runner's World Heroes of Running Award, the 2010 Fleet Feet Lifetime Commitment to Running Award, 2010 Ron Burton Community Service Award, the 2011 Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center's 2011 100 list, and inducted into the USA Triathlon Hall of Fame in 2011 and the prestigious "Jimmy Award" by the Jimmy Fund and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute for 30 years of contributing time and expertise to help raise millions for cancer research and treatment. McGillivray has logged more than 150,000 miles, most for charity, raising millions for worthy causes. He's completed 126 marathons and competed in eight Hawaii Ironman Triathlons. His personal bests? Marathon: 2:29:58 and for the Ironman: 10:36:42 Section two – Life Skills Working on the important stuff - http://runrunlive.com/the-efficiency-trap Outro And so it goes. It's a momentum thing, isn't it my friends? If you can start you can keep going and soon repetition becomes habit and habit becomes a body of work. I have to admit it was hard to get this jump started again – but now that we have it should get easier. Just finished the book “Running with the Buffaloes”. It documents a season of the Colorado University cross country team. It is the year that Adam Goucher won the NCAA meet beating out Abdi Abdirahman and Bernard Lagat. What I found interesting was the training they went through. These are 20 year old kids, mind you. They were running 100+ mile weeks, in singles all through the summer leading into the season and held that volume in the 80's and 90's right through the season. As they came into the racing season they layered on a bunch of high quality anaerobic work as well. Really shows you what you can get out of your machine if you do the work. On the flip side most of these guys were injured. Adam made the Olympic trials but ended up having to retire early. Abdi is still out there and ran the Olympic marathon with Meb in London 2012 – he DNF'ed. Adam's wife Kara is still out there too. She came in 11th to Shalane's 10th in London. It was a good book if you're a running geek and readable in the sense that it has a real narrative vs just the technical bits. I raced the Mill Cities Relay last Sunday with my club and had a great race. I did a warm up of 2.5 miles at around an 8:05 pace then raced the 9.5 mile leg at a sub 7:30 – which I felt pretty good about. I don't race that much anymore so it's hard to gauge my fitness. Next weekend, Dec. 21st Brian and I are putting on the 2nd annual Groton Marathon. This is a self-supported 26.2 mile run around my home town of Groton Mass. No big thing just a bunch of us out having a long run and having fun. You folks are more than welcome to come and run all or part of it with us. Shoot me note if you're interested. I was going to go down to Atlanta for the Jeff Galloway ½ this weekend but my life is just too busy to pull it off and I've been spending too many weekends on the road this fall. I'm a bit fried. I have, believe it or not a cruise coming up in January. We'll see how I can navigate that and my training. I'm going to have to miss my favorite New Year's Day race – the hangover classic up in Salisbury with its ocean plunge in the Atlantic. The ‘How to qualify for the Boston Marathon in 12 weeks' is in editing. Thanks for all the inquiries. I'm shooting to get a promotional copy out by the end of the calendar year and you all can help me promote it and then a launch in February. It's been fun writing all this down, but challenging as well, because I really don't have room for more projects in my life! But, I have to follow my own advice and get something done. The Groton Marathon will be my 48th marathon. Currently I'd love to find another race in January or February to be my 49th marathon so I can run Boston this year as my 50th. It's got a nice symmetry to it, right? As for Boston I got a charity number again and I'll be running for the Hoyts even though Dick has retired from Boston. I'm not sure if someone else is going to be pushing Ricky this year or not. Those are my plans, as nebulous as they are, for now. Remember celebrate every day and live in the now because this could very well be as good as it gets. And I'll see you out there.

Johan Lilja beskriver sig själv som en ganska vanlig motionär, men när man börjar prata med honom framgår det att han minst sagt sticker ut över genomsnittet. Johan jobbar mer än heltid med sitt företag Yniq som startades av bland annat Jon Olsson, samtidigt har han i snart ett år förberett sig för att som en av 33 deltagare köra den åtta dagar långa MTB-tävlingen Yak Attack i Nepal som går över Himalaya. I samband med denna satsning blir Johan även lagkapten för Team Crescent Adventure - ett multisportlag som satsar stort inför kommande tävlingssäsonger. Vi pratar om likheterna mellan entreprenörskap och att söka äventyr och fysisk ansträngning. Om att lägga ned 30 till 40 timmars träning i veckan trots att man är gift med tre barn, och drömmen att jobba på en plåtpress i... See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
