It changed my life and my health. A year and a half ago, at the now ‘masters’ age of 59, I was out taking a brisk walk as part of my daily exercise and I realized I suddenly wanted to run again. Run like I did when I was a child. It had been so long since I had just taken off and been spontaneous with my physical activity. So I decided then in there ‘I wanna run again.’ I could barely go half a mile without stopping and I had no idea what I was doing. I downloaded a couple of things and finally set a goal; I wanted to run a 5K. Three months later, I finished my 5K and I was hooked on running. I wanted to improve so I went and started looking for podcasts and books. That’s when I found ‘The Planted Runner.’ It spoke to my lifestyle, the way I see the world and gave me instructions that I could follow implement in my day-to-day life. It inspired me at a time of of life when it’s hard to sometimes become inspired. I just recently finished my first 10k at the age of 60 and now I’m training to see if I could possibly do a half marathon. Your podcast in addition to the techniques, recipes, and science-based motivation, has been a game changer. Thank you!” aborders@film180 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great content “Super informative and educational. Really enjoy the content.” Sara75001 Music Credits: Music from Uppbeat

  • Does a Plant-Based Diet Give You A Performance Edge? Maybe
    May 30 2024
    There has never been more evidence that a diet rich in whole plant-foods, high in fiber, and low in saturated fats and animal products is the clear path to human health and longevity. But does that mean everyone should immediately go vegan? And what does this all mean for athletic performance? As much as I’d love this to be inarguably true because it works for me, it’s more complicated than that. And I’m not here to preach my opinions to anyone, but I do love some good science. Can a plant-based diet really help you and your running? Let’s find out. On today’s show, I’m going to go over the benefits that a plant-based diet provides runners the potential downsides to going plant-based, and I’ll give you a day in the life of a plant-based runner with meal examples that you can try today If you’re curious about going plant-based or if you already are, but could use some inspiration, I’ve got you covered.

I’ll be training for the Chicago Marathon so that means training through the summer. Right now I live in Oregon so not a bad place to train.
