Welcome to the 75th episode of our Shattering the Yoyo series, which looks back at episode 103 from December 12th, 2018. The original title of this episode is, Am I Too Healthy? Spoiler alert: the answer was no. But as I listened to it, I was so impressed by all the positivity along with details…

I’m at the Running: A FEVER world headquarters and about to head down to the Lake Fayetteville trail. It’s cloudy, and I’m getting some drops, but do you know what? I’ve been wimpy about the weather for too long. I’m just going to go and fight through it. They say, ‘Are you a man or…

I’m warming up my lower extremities and stretching my back. My back is the part that gives me the most trouble when I’m walking. I don’t expect to get much trouble from it today, but I’m already sore. And the cat has gone upside-down. Welcome to Running: A FEVER. It’s a podcast about fitness, diet,…

I’m warming up, and Frankenstein (my cat) is very interested because she hasn’t seen me do this indoors for a while. Warmups are important, and with as many injuries I’ve had, I take this seriously. Even on an indoor bike or stationary bike, I know I can get injured because I had an Achilles tendon…

It’s a beautiful day at Lake Fayetteville. I got up at 0430 this morning, trying to get back into the routine that I’ve known and that has worked for me before. So, I don’t know how far I’ll get today, but regardless, it’s a good step toward forming a new habit. Being able to get…

Welcome to the 73rd in our series about ending the phenomenon of yo-yo dieting and weight loss and weight gain. We’re looking back at the banner year 2018 in hopes of gleaning some wisdom from our past success. The original title of this episode is “Running A FEVER 101”. I decided to make an episode…

Welcome to the 72nd in our series, Shattering the Yoyo. Episode 100 was a lot of fun to do. It’s a real milestone for a podcaster. Years ago, I heard that the average podcast lasted about seven episodes. It is probably even less than that now. So, there’s a sense of accomplishment that goes with…

Welcome to Running: A FEVER. My name is Michael Davis, and this is a podcast about fitness, diet, and medicine. My goal is to live a long, healthy, happy, active life right up to the very end. I love my life enough to make it last as long as possible. If you feel the same…

It’s a beautiful day at Lake Fayetteville. The car says 58 degrees. In the garage, it was 54, so it’s actually warmer out here. The phone says 61, so it’s probably 61 at the airport. That’s where most weather stations are. They have to know the weather so they can tell the pilots and calculate…

We’ve talked about stress in the past, and I was thinking today about all the things in the world that can give us stress. Big picture things. We’ve talked about the personal things. But big-picture macro things in the world? “2024” rhymes with “war,” and certainly, that is happening worldwide. The United States is in…
