So THIS Is Fitness | Health, Fitness, Running & Weight Loss
This is episode 108, I'm Coach Darrell, and today we're talking about why people have such a hard time changing their bodies, feeling better, and getting healthier - and how to finally succeed. And STAY succeeding.

Everyone's looking for the secret. We want results & we want them now - surely supplements will help! So what "Sports Nutrition" stuff is my Holy Grail, anyway?

It's time to talk facts. You've probably heard of the Ketogenic Diet. People LOVE Keto. But do you know how it actually works? Odds are... you're doing it wrong.

We do this dance every year. Maybe this year it's time to accept the hard truth about health and fitness New Year's Resolutions: what happens next is up to you.

Do you feel it? There's something in the air at the Millinocket Marathon & Half. It's electric. It's warm. It's truly special. And it's changing lives.

Holidays are hard. But what if they didn't have to be? What if it wasn't SO hard to succeed in our fitness & nutrition efforts during the holidays? It CAN happen.

What's it take to "go the distance"? Coach Darrell shares exactly that as he reviews the Ghost Train Rail Trail Race, and recaps his experience running 100 miles.

It's called a "destination race" for a reason. Some races are so special, and their course so beautiful, it's WORTH a long trip. MDI Marathon & Half is one of them.

We've been talking about "fitness" wrong. There's more to fitness than working out and eating "right". We need to look at a more complete picture, and adjust our understanding and approach.

Yes, I know. You were probably expecting this upload to be Episode 100, weren't you? Well - it's not. Instead, I'm here to tell you WHY, a hint of what's coming, and a special preview of our special something else.
info_outlineSometimes the best things happen by accident.
Sometimes an idea develops into something you weren't expecting. That's what happened with this podcast episode. It's also what happened with Orange Mud and their hydration products. In chatting with Josh Sprague (Founder & CEO of Orange Mud) I learned all about his adventures, hydration on the trail, and the culture of care that's developed at Orange Mud.
I love when I hear things like this.
I have a habit of setting myself up for success with interviews and product reviews. What I mean by that is, I usually only ever seek out or respond to opportunities that I have a feeling I'm going to like or that will go well. I suppose that's more or less how many people tend to operate, huh? Usually, it works out the way I figure it will. Every once in a while I'm proven wrong. Sometimes, though, it goes even better than I expected. Sometimes I learn things about a person, product, or company that make me fall in love. That's what happened with NOW Foods, and it seems to be happening with Orange Mud.
I have to say, after our chat, I'm all about Orange Mud. I love their gear (I'm testing out the Endurance Pack 2.0), I love their culture, and I love what they stand for. If you're looking for a new hydration pack, you should check them out. And you should DEFINITELY give a listen to episode 97 of the So THIS Is Fitness podcast so you can hear our whole chat. You'll probably dig it just as much as I did.
Oh, and we're giving away his best-selling product! (check out the rafflecopter widget at the bottom of the post linked below).
