We are replaying a very special episode this week on the Run Eat Drink Podcast as we flash back to a celebration of Jeff Galloway's 80th birthday.  Jeff means so much to us.  He is not just an Olympian; he is founder of the run-walk-run method.  He is also a friend and family member to so many of us in the run-walk-run community.  Words cannot express the inspiration, love, guidance, and support he has given so many of us.

As many of you may know from a recent Facebook post, Jeff is in recovery from emergency neurosurgery and is now in the care of a great medical team in the ICU.

We also want to spread the word that if Jeff has impacted your life and you would like to leave him a special message during his recovery, please do here:

RED Episode 320

SHOUTOUTS 

Thanks to Alison Bourey who shared her story with us of a struggle turned into triumph.  Here is the link to the story of the students and faculty who saved her: irstalert4.com/2025/11/03/parkway-north-teachers-revive-woman-who-collapsed-while-running-high-school-track/.

Thanks to Dawn Broussard who shared:  “There are definitely lots of days that I don’t want to get out there so I just say I’ll give it 10 minutes and most of the time it’s enough time to start wanting to move more. Now eating junk is another story.  I’m not sure I can ever give up my sweets and snacks.

Springtime Surprise in 2024 was so difficult.  I didn’t want to leave the hotel room after I found out my sister had died, but my family didn’t want me to give up on things I enjoy doing and now usually do all my miles with those who can’t in mind.”

RUN, EAT, DRINK, and Celebrate Jeff Galloway’s 80th birthday with us!

Jeff Galloway, famously known as "America's Coach" and Olympic athlete, is about to achieve something remarkable that no one else has done before – running marathons across eight decades of life. Now approaching his 80th birthday, Jeff shares his journey toward completing this historic milestone at the Honolulu Marathon this December.

Behind this extraordinary achievement lies a deeply personal story of resilience. Jeff candidly discusses his recovery from heart failure and a heart attack, revealing how he adapted his renowned Run-Walk-Run method to accommodate his new cardiac reality. Starting with just three seconds of running at a time post-heart attack, he's now able to complete 13-mile training runs by carefully balancing short running segments with strategic walking breaks. His approach isn't just about survival – it's about thriving within new limitations while maintaining the mental benefits that made him fall in love with running decades ago.

The Honolulu Marathon holds profound significance for Jeff beyond just being his eighth-decade marathon attempt. It's where he proposed to his wife Barbara nearly 50 years ago, where he stationed during his Navy service, and where he achieved one of his most memorable victories in 1974, defeating Olympic medalists Frank Shorter and Kenny Moore. Now, he's returning with a different goal – simply crossing the finish line while potentially setting a world record.

Throughout our conversation, Jeff shares fascinating insights about running's evolutionary importance, explaining how movement shaped human brain development and continues to activate neural circuits that improve our attitude, energy levels, and problem-solving abilities. "Running is what enabled our species to survive," he explains. "When we run, we grow more brain cells and activate the parts of the brain that give us a better attitude, more energy, and the ability to overcome challenges."

For those inspired by Jeff's journey, he's created an opportunity to join him in Hawaii through a special travel package that includes accommodations, pre and post-race celebrations, and his personal coaching. Whether you're a seasoned marathoner or curious beginner, Jeff's story reminds us all that the true power of running lies not in speed or distance, but in "staying in the game" through every decade of life.

RED Episode 312- ARGH  You Ready for a Pirate 5K and The Dock at Crayton Cove  in Naples, Florida

SHOUTOUTS 

If you want a shoutout for you or someone else you love on the show,  email us at [email protected] or call us and leave a message at 941-677-2733

RUN 

How to train when you are on the comeback trail?  Motivate yourself with excuses to dress up and wear a cute pirate running outfit… then walk a 5K and get a great pirate-themed medal at the Pirate 1M, 5K, 10K, 15K, & Half Marathon at North Collier Regional Park, Naples, FL.

Pirate 1M, 5K, 10K, 15K, & Half Marathon is also available on April 26, 2025, for our local Runcation Nation crew!

https://runsignup.com/Race/FL/Naples/NorthCollier42625 

EAT

It is almost time for Stone Crab season to come to an end.  So, we reached out to our friends at @just.take,a.dip for a Florida hidden gem we may not have known about, and voila…  The Dock at Crayton Cove in Naples a mere 15 minutes from the 5K.    Crab can be rubbery and tough to crack, or it can be a seamless experience…. And this was a seamless experience.  Shout out to Kelly, who took care of me so well, and her recommendations were spot-on in every section of the menu.

This is where they get their Key Lime Pie and Layer Chocolate Cake… just order one or the two and share at the table… you won’t be sorry!

Mikkelsen’s Pastry Shop in Bonita Springs, a few minutes north of Naples and the Dock

DRINK 

A traditional Cosmopolitan is a drink that many in our Runcation Nation are fans of… but I saw Passionfruit Cosmo and thought… let’s try this twist!  Their entire cocktail menu looks excellent; they have local brews on tap, mocktails for the designated drivers in your dining party, and fountain drinks for the kids, too!
