Episode 319 - Hilary Topper - Author - From Couch Potato to Endurance Athlete: A Portrait of a Non-Athletic Triathlete


“I really changed my life a lot…I was doing all the bad things…drinking, smoking cigarettes…I felt if I could do it, anyone could do it! You are never too old, too overweight…” 

-Hilary Topper, Author of From Couch Potato to Endurance Athlete: A Portrait of a Non-Athletic Triathlete.

What does it mean to be an athlete? For author Hilary Topper who never considered herself an athlete, turning 48 was the beginning of an adventure she never could have predicted. Today we welcome Hilary to the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast from her home in Long Island to share her journey from “couch potato” to endurance athlete. After realizing she had to make a change in her unhealthy lifestyle, Hilary is here to discuss how she went about hiring a trainer, finding some accountability partners, joining some training groups, and embracing her new life. Hilary also dispels the myths surrounding the ability to be an “endurance athlete,” even if you have never competed in sports before. Now, she is using her experiences to inspire others that “anyone can do it” through her book, From Couch Potato to Endurance Athlete: A Portrait of a Non-Athletic Triathlete. Learn more about Hilary, grab the book, or read her very witty and inspiring blogs by heading to her Instagram page and Linktree @hilarytopper.

Episode 275 - Chrissy Horan - Freelance Writer and Running Enthusiast 

“For me, running became a kind of game…I ran to the next bridge….then the next…” “My favorite part of the Boston Marathon…it sends the tingle up your spine.” 

“...I first started writing a blog…but I love writing human interest stories…” Chrissy Horan  

 

In today’s episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, let’s welcome running enthusiast and freelance writer, Chrissy Horan. Chrissy, a Long Island native, who also happens to be Christine’s childhood volleyball teammate, is here to share how her unexpected love for running led her to become an experienced marathon runner, volunteer, fundraiser and freelance writer. Chrissy, a former obesity researcher, claims to have always “dreaded running” until she moved to Boston in 2000 and began running along the historic Charles River. For Chrissy, her competitive nature enabled her to turn her running into “a kind of game,” running just a little farther each run. Fast forward, Chrissy Horan has established herself as a runner who not only takes pride in raising funds and awareness for charities such as the Alzheimer’s Association, but also writing about current research and human interest stories related to the sport. Chrissy’s articles have been featured in Runner’s World, the Boston Globe, Women’s Running and Boston.com. In fact, she even wrote an amazing evidence-based article shedding light on the benefits of running to fight Rheumatoid Arthritis that featured a cameo by one of the “Fit

Crazies.” Learn more about Chrissy Horan and read her latest blogs and articles at www.ChrissyHoran.com.

“Are you a fighter jet or a crop duster?”

wonder that Bedros is also the CEO of Fit Body Boot Camp, the creator of the Modern Day Knight Project, and has been featured on television and in newspapers and magazines around the world.

Christine Runs 100 Miles! - Episode 231

Episode 231 - Christine Runs 100 Miles!

“To finish a 100 mile race, it’s not about physical toughness…it’s about mental toughness and

mindset.”

“There was never a doubt in my mind that I would not finish…the key was to find a wolfpack and stick together…we promised each other we would all finish.” - Christine

 

What must it be like to run 100 miles? In this episode, the Two Fit Crazies bring you the long-awaited recap of the C and O Canal 100 Mile Race! Sit back and take in all the craziness as Brian asks Christine how she got her hands on one of the most coveted prizes in the ultra-endurance world, a finishers belt buckle. Listen up as Christine dishes out the wild details of what goes into completing an ultra-endurance race. From gathering a loyal crew, eating a pound of bacon, climbing muddy cliffs in pitch black pouring rain, to spotting black bear cubs and dealing with hallucinations, you will want to run out and sign up for the next ultra-event near you. That may be a bit of a lie after you hear about the toenail casualties and the fact that over half of the athletes that showed up at the starting line never finished. Also, hear a huge shout out to Angel Bob, Dr. Mindy, Shannon, and Marley the Puppy for being the best crew in the world, and of course Mike Conti! Wait until you hear about how Christine’s husband stepped up in the middle of a cold rainy night to pace her in for the last 30 miles. That goodness for old school rap music!

 

If you forgot why this podcast is called the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone, prepare to be reminded! Now go out and do something fit crazie!

The Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast welcomes a true fitness professional and fitness legend by the name of Carol Scott. On today’s episode, Carol joins the Fit Crazies from her home in the Hamptons to shed some light on how she was able to climb the ranks in the fitness industry and found ECA, the East Coast Alliance, later known as ECA World Fitness Alliance. Carol also talks about how she created the East Coach Instructor Training School based on the growing need to train, certify, and place fitness professionals in positions where they could best serve others. In addition, Carol discusses the impact that athletics and strong mentors like former Olympian, WNBA star and now professional coach, Nancy Lieberman, had on developing her resilient mindset at an early age. Carol, who is not shy about being inspired by STAR TREK’s Captain Kirk and his ability to “boldly go where no one has gone before” has no plans on slowing down. Seeing fitness as “a conduit to spiritual awakenings, unity, diversity, acceptance, tolerance, citizenship,” Carol’s predictions for the future of the fitness industry and her plans to build the Fitness Instructor Guild are unparalleled.

Welcome to the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, a show that Brian now feels he can cut the recording on Christine if he does not like her introductory remarks. Aside from a small on-air tiff between the two crazies, today’s episode is “off the hook!” Joining the show from Long Island, Gail Bannister-Munn, Long Island fitness legend, educator, creator of the Bannister Method and the Long Island Fitness Network Group, and flexibility specialist for professional athletes, talks about how she was able to build a strong network and reputation in the fitness industry. Gail also discusses what it was like to be raised by an Indian mother and English father who believed that paying it forward was a way of life. And if you were wondering, Gail was an exceptionally talented runner in her day who just happens to hail from a some very decorated Bannisters, including distant uncle Sir Roger, the first man to run a mile in under 4 minutes and one super-fast nephew, Olympic Gold medalist Matthew Centrowitz Jr.

 

From training the JETS to being flown around-the-country to work with top NBA players, Gail has made quite a name for herself as a flexibility specialist. I guarantee you will have a few laughs listening to Gail share some of her crazy stories of working with pro-athletes and beyond!

 

Stay Healthy and Stay Crazie!

In Episode 204 of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, the Two Fit Crazies are joined by a 7x World Champion and 6x World Record holder by the name of Aaron Yoder. Joining the show from Lindsborg, Kansas, where he current serves as the head track coach for Bethany College, Aaron is moving forward in life by going backwards. Aaron shares his story of what it was like to be a decorated runner in high school and college, only to be sidelined in his early twenties by what should have been a career-ending injury. Saying that Aaron made lemonade, or as I say, Lemon Martinis, out of lemons, is an understatement. After experimenting with backwards running on his home treadmill as a teenager, Aaron realized that this was “his calling” and HE WAS GOOD! In fact, Aaron reveals his secrets to “retro” running and what inspired him to set Guinness World Records and compete at 7 World Championships. You are bound to be impressed with Aaron not only for his incredible work ethic and ability to run 5-minute miles in reverse, but also for his desire to serve and inspire others as a collegiate coach. In fact, on Sunday, you can even find Aaron delivering sermons at his local church. Does this sound too good to be true? If, so, do yourself a favor and Google Aaron Yoder and watch him in action! He will not disappoint!

 

Stay Crazie!
