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…

I’m recording on my phone today, actually holding the phone up to my face, because I like recording podcasts. And I brought the recorder that I normally use, but I forgot the memory card. This doesn’t sound too bad being recorded on my phone, and hopefully, I don’t get tired of holding it up to…

Alright. Welcome to Running: A FEVER. My name is Michael Davis. 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. And I love my life enough to make it last as long as possible. If that’s what you…

Welcome to the 70th installment in our series, Shattering the Yoyo. In this episode, we review episode 98, which was published on November 23, 2018, with the original title Biometrics Results. I recorded it driving to and from the location at my employer, where I had my biometric screening, and got the preliminary results, which…
