One of the most beautiful things about our profession is not just the breadth and depth of how it exists but the sheer potential it holds.
Surround yourself with people who indulge your "What if..."

For the runners out there:
New VP candidate Tim Walz is a runner. And not too shabby.
Looks like he's run:
6:17 road mile at 52 years old.
21:43- 5k at 49
1:47 half marathon at 51

Good accurate explainer of the effects on the body of sprinting 400 meters. Understanding this process was key to me breaking the WR and consistently running 43 seconds.
Explainer video on science of why the 400m sprint is considered the most painful track & field event.
And why “no person on the planet can run the 400m all out from start to finish".
The race pushes the way the body creates energy to the limit:
▫️0-50 meters: ATP-CP (energy system for very short and explosive movements; used up after 5-10 seconds)
▫️50-200 meters: Anaerobic glycolysis (burns glucose without oxygen, leading to lactic acid buildup and muscle fatigue)
▫️200-300 meters: Aerobic energy (uses oxygen to break down glucose, but cannot keep up with the demand)
▫️300-400 meters: Anaerobic energy reserves tapped while aerobic energy is too slow to fill the gaps (lactic acid buildup is going HAM)
Track athletes can pace for longer distances and shorter ones are just over quicker (obvs).
The Olympic record is a blazing 43:03, set by South African runner Wayde van Niekerk in 2016 (and 2024 Final race is tomorrow).

🏋🏻♀️Strength training simultaneously
1️⃣ Reduces our risk of at least 14 different NCDs,
2️⃣Promotes health(span) in most of our organ systems,
3️⃣All without any unwanted side-effects…
…I haven’t heard of any pharmaceutical or medical device that can do all that with one intervention, twice per week🤩
