The Endurance Planet Hour
This week on the Endurance Planet Hour, we talk to Dr. Mark Klion who fields questions about your aches and pains, we check in with runner and missions worker Tara Porter-Livesay who is headed back to Haiti, and we hear about a young man desperately trying to follow in his running father’s footsteps.
Marathon and Beyond Monday: Running for My Life
Jeff Hardisty’s father had died of heart disease at the age of 46, so when Hardisty himself toed the line of the Seattle Marathon at 46, he had a lot on his mind. Jeff had undergone heart surgery just months prior, but had his doctor’s ok to attempt 26.2. This week’s Marathon & Beyond Monday is Hardisty’s account of that day.
My Story: From Kidney Failure to Competition
Age group runner and duathlete Eric Otte of Olathe, Kansas is enjoying his athletic pursuits more than ever. That’s because he was unable to pursue training and racing for an extended period of time due to kidney failure. In this “My Story” edition — done in conjunction with USA Triathlon — we hear Otte’s story and what he learned from the challenging time in his life.
Marathon & Beyond Monday: The Infection Connection
You’ve probably heard it said that exercise can strengthen the immune system. You’ve also probably heard it said that exercise can dampen the immune system. So what are we to make of the seemingly conflicting information? Today on Endurance Planet—a Marathon & Beyond Monday edition—we hear Sara Latta’s story entitled The Infection Connection.
The Doctor Takes Your Questions
Every couple of weeks on Endurance Planet, Dr. Mark Klion takes questions from endurance athletes about their aches and pains. Klion is an endurance athlete himself, an orthopedic surgeon, and creator of the Bodyworks MD DVD Series. This time around he addresses questions about barefoot running, end-of-marathon cramping, plantar fasciitis, and micro-fracture surgery.
My Story: Excelling in Spite of it All
It’s hard to believe that the 22-year-old who recently blazed to a 1.14.39 win at the Bearathon Half-Marathon at Baylor University was—not so long ago—recovering from major abdominal surgery. Now Matt Ison, a cancer survivor from Waco, Texas, is set to compete in the USA Triathlon Collegiate Nationals. Today on Endurance Planet—a My Story edition done in conjunction with USAT—we hear from the tough and determined athlete.
The Road to Western States 2010: Dr. Marty Hoffman
The Western States Endurance Run is one of the oldest ultra trail events in the world and certainly one of the most challenging. But the 100-miler scheduled for June 26th is also, essentially, a research lab. Dr. Marty Hoffman is the medical director for Western States. He’s a multiple-time finisher who has completed studies on endurance sports and its effects on the human body. Today on Endurance Planet, Marty tackles questions such as: “Aren’t you doing permanent damage to your body running 100 miles?”
The Endurance Planet Hour
People have been butchering Matt Chrabot’s last name for years. He’s been called everything from “Shar-bow” to “Crabpot.” But after his win at the Miami International Triathlon, Chrabot (pronounced shär-bòt) will be a recognizable name to professional triathletes everywhere. Today on the Endurance Planet Hour, we talk to the 26-year-old up-and-comer. We also hear from our latest “Trail Nerd of the Month”, Beth Simpson-Hall, and we talk to Dr. Mark Klion of Bodyworks MD about your aches and pains.
Checking in with the Doctor
Every couple of weeks we like to check in with the doctor who not only knows medicine, but also knows endurance sports—Dr. Mark Klion. Dr. Klion is a Manhattan-based certified orthopedic surgeon, Ironman, ultra-runner and creator of the Bodyworks MD DVD series. Endurance Planet listeners post their questions for Dr. Klion on our Facebook Fans page and he answers them here in podcast form. This time around we get Dr. Klion’s take on P90X, and his recommendations on combating neck, back, and knee injuries.
