#327 - David Amerland's dedication to fitness is evident as soon as we began talking. He switched careers midstream to follow what he loved rather than what he had studied for, chemical engineering. Through this, he wrote the book Built to Last: How to Get Stronger, Heathier and Happier at Every Stage of Life. He and his wife also founded the website Darebee.com I talk to him about all of this and how it can help you and your running! 

All of David's links can be found on the show website!

#326 - One of the greatest races in the world takes place in South Africa. The Comrades Marathon can take place north to south or south to north, depending on the year. It is over 50 miles on hot pavement with a tough time limit. In my attempt to talk about all the great world running races, this week is focus on the Comrades. If you're fast and you dream of traveling to Africa, this may be your race!

#325 - Over 500,000 hikers went missing in 2021. There are not numbers of runners who go missing, but they would be drastically reduced. I go over the reasons for the discrepancy. This week, I talk about a few missing runners and what might have happened to them. Some of them have been found, some of them have not. There are ways to help us prevent becoming a missing statistic, which I also give suggestions. Of course, we can't prevent every occurrence, we can help make our runs safer. I also give a review on my new running watch. All links are on the website.

#324 - We all have our favorite places to run. They may be the places we run every day, or they may be places we've only run once or a couple of times, but we remember them for being outrageously beautiful, or maybe standing out as one of the best runs we can remember. Today I'm talking about my favorite places to run and hike. Some of these are places I go to regularly while others are routes that I've only been to once. But they're all places I'd love to visit again. What are your favorite running routes? Email me if you like. I'll read your replies in the next episode.

#323 - Throughout life, we're told that as we get older, we should relax, take it easy, retire somewhere in the sun and then what...... we're supposed to just fade away? I am of the opinion that there's no reason to give up running or being fierce and strong as we age. Being older is not the time to take it easy. Aging takes strength and fierceness. Sure, it make take us longer and we may not be able to do the same races at the same times we once did, but there's no reason to give them up! Let's take on aging like a knight taking on a fire-breathing dragon! Everyone ages but that doesn't mean that we have to accept it without a good battle! 

Also, don't miss my two product reviews and a website recommendation!

#322 - "Take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints." We've heard this before, probably when visiting a national park, but we can relate to it every time we go out for a run. This week, I talk about how we can use the Leave No Trace philosophy in our running and help keep the trails and races as great each and every time we run!

#321 - It seems everywhere you turn today, all you hear about is AI. And in running, it's no exception. AI can help your running, but there are some downsides. Today, I go over what AI is and how it can help you, provided that you look out for the negatives. Links are on the shoe website.

Also, I close the book on a running shoe company I used to love. I feel like I've broken up with someone. It's sad when a running shoe company completely changes a shoe that we love. It's heartbreaking!

#320 - I experienced something no one should go through this past week. My Facebook page, as well as my podcast page and podcast Facebook group was suspended over an Instagram account that is not mine. I replied back disputing the suspension, but I'm not optimistic about getting any results. So, while I set up a new Facebook account, it got me thinking.... do we runners rely too heavily on social media? So many runners seem more concerned with getting that perfect photo or video or they get upset with themselves when they see other runners' better times in races, or a myriad of different things, that this episode was overdue. I hope to have the podcast page and group started new by next week. I'll let you all know on the show when I have them up and running.

#319 - There are important moments in history that we can remember. Depending on our age, it can include the first man on the moon, the first computer, the first electric car. There are also historic moments in running that should be remembered as turning points. I go over some of these this week. There are so many, I could not include all of them, so if this is of interest to you, I can do a Part 2, just let me know. I'll include links to the full episode if I covered the moment previously. 

Plus I review two Altra running shoes!

#318 - If you find yourself cutting your long runs short by a few miles every time you go out, or that you're getting DNFs more than you are finishes in your races, you may be suffering from Give-Up-Itis! But no worries! Many runners, including myself go through this, not realizing that it might be a sign of a bigger problem. This week, I'll talk about how it happens and what we can do to cure it! Fortunately, it has a 100% cure rate, if you're willing to put in the effort and if you're like me, and you love running, then you know that it's worth it! No worries, there's no prescription and no trip to the doctor's office!
