Jason Suarez: Work for Your Own Dreams - R4R 380

Jason Suarez dreamt of going to the Olympics. He ran track in high school and college, but when he went to Tokyo in 2021, it wasn't as a runner, but as a photographer.

James Fell: The Sweary Historian - R4R 379

William Faulkner said, "The past is never dead. It's not even past." As James Fell recounts it, the past is alive, kicking, and throwing f-bombs. Volume I of his self-published, two-volume On This Day in History Sh!t Went Down has just been republished by Bantam Books. Before he became the "Sweary Historian" though, James was a fitness columnist for the Los Angeles Times and the Chicago Tribune, and authored two books on fitness and motivation. And as befits a fitness writer, he's a long-time runner. For complete show notes and links, visit our website at runningforreal.com/episode379.

Tim Tollefson on the Road to CIM Series: Celebrating Others Is a Beautiful Thing - R4R 378

From the outside, Tim Tollefson appeared to have everything as a runner. He was a collegiate steeplechase champion, a 2-time US Olympic Marathon Trials qualifier, and is one of the country's most accomplished ultra runners. He podiumed at UTMB in both his 100K and 100 mile debuts, and went on to win the Javelina Jundred, Lavaredo Ultra Trail 120K, and the Ultra Trail Australia 100K. But appearances can be deceiving, and a focus on appearances can be devastating. Tim suffered from body dysmorphia and its accompanying OCD for two decades. As he relates in "What Goes Unsaid," a film project he participated in last year for World Mental Health Day, "I've spent a lifetime hating myself for what I'm not, instead of being thankful for what I am." Now, largely through his involvement with the running community, he's come to appreciate running for the gift that it is. This episode is part of the Road to CIM podcast series, for runners participating in the race next weekend, there's extra advice for you! For complete show notes and links, visit our website at runningforreal.com/episode378. Thank you to Precision Fuel & Hydration, AG1, and Allbirds for sponsoring this episode.

NYC Marathon and the Today Show - R4R 377

Two weeks ago, Kayleigh Williamson became one of the first, and quite possibly the first, women with Down syndrome to complete the New York City Marathon. She crossed the finish line alongside her mother, Sandy, and their friend, Tina Muir, both of whom had been with her for the entire 26.2 miles. Kayleigh's finish went viral, and she, Sandy, and Tina were invited to appear on the "Today Show" with Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager. Breaking barriers comes at a cost, however; not only physical and emotional, but financial. Tina has created a GoFundMe fundraiser for Kayleigh and Sandy to help them recoup their expenses to go to the marathon, and maybe give them a little boost going into the holiday season. In this episode, Tina shares the details of the marathon, what it's like to be a guest on a hit TV show, and the rest of a whirlwind day!

Oren Jay Sofer: Water Your Healthy Seeds - R4R 376

With wars raging in Ukraine, Gaza, and Sudan; political polarization; the after effects of the COVID 19 pandemic; and the climate crisis, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by the state of the world. With his new book, Your Heart Was Made for This: Contemplative Practices to Meet a World in Crisis with Courage, Integrity, and Love, Oren Jay Sofer offers a practical guide to living a meaningful life in a time of great uncertainty and upheaval. "Every day we are practicing something with how we live, how we use our attention, the things we think, say, and do. And if we are intentional about that every day, we can grow stronger, more resilient, more kind, loving, and flexible. It is an incredibly, hopefully empowering message that we can shape our life and position ourselves to be as resilient as possible in the face of so much change and challenge and hardship."
