Shout Outs:

Shout outs to the world. That way no one is left behind. Except for the folks aren’t listening to the podcast. So it is doubly important that you spread the word and share this podcast. As Cameo said “Tell your brother, your sister and your mamma too, cause we’re about to go down and you know just what to do. Wave your hands in the air like you don’t care. Glide by the people as they start to look and stare. Do your dance, do your dance, do your dance quick mamma. Come on baby tell me what’s the word”…aand I digress. “Well it’s all right, riding around in the breeze. Well it’s all right, if you live the life you please.” sang the Traveling Wilburys.

Run Update:

Not much running lately. Am getting antsy and have missed a few days planned for runs. Time has been spent strength training and on a periodized plan towards an October 50 mile run.

Running News:

Anybody else following Scott Jurek’s AT FKT attempt? In case you don’t know.  Scott is attempting an Appalachian Trail (AT) speed record. This dude is a beast. As of this writing, he’s on Day 46.

Health & Food:

The topic of compulsive eating came up on the Vinnie Tortorich No Sugar No Grains closed group on Facebook. It got me thinking about emotional eating.  I’ve found myself time to time eating at odd times, usually late in the evening. Sometimes on not the most optimal of foods. On my journey, I’ve learned to be kinder to myself and less strict. It’s much easier to be self-forgiving and relaxed after about three years on the NSNG (no sugar no grains) lifestyle and seeing my health improve and body composition change and improve slowly and steadily. Allow me to repeat. Now it’s been three years and I’ve slowly and steadily improved health and body composition at over 40 years of age. So committing to a lifestyle and not a diet is what it is all about for me. Back to emotional eating. There are times when I eat a crap ton of food. I guess I get really hungry. However it does cross my mind as I stuff my face, whether or not I am emotionally eating or have a problem. They way I see it is…No. Now if I stuff my face this way regularly… yes. It did get me wondering about the topic of emotional eating though. It also made me wonder if humans are the only animals that have this condition? If it has always been something humans dealt with? Or just in recent history?

Fitness:

As I attempt to periodize my training somewhat. I’m looking to build strength first. Most my time will be experimenting with the Front Squat where I work on it once or twice a week for several weeks. I’m new to it so I’m learning as much as I can to do it properly and safely. One resource I’ve found useful in getting familiar with the movement is this video from Mark Rippetoe titled “The Front Squat with Mark Rippetoe”

Family & Play:

In podcast episode 52, i talk a bit in the areas of family and play as well. I get into potty training, watching Magic Mike XXL with my wife, Memorial Day weekend fireworks, pushing cars, and canceling cable service.
