The Two Fit Crazies and Loyalty - Episode 332

Episode 332 - The Two Fit Crazies and Loyalty

There are 3 types of people that come into your life. There are those who are like the leaves on trees that show up for a season, but when the weather (or things) gets tough, they fall off and disappear. Then, there are the types of people that are like branches. These people can be strong and stay around for longer than the “leaves,” but they may not last forever; They may not be able to hold you up if you need support, and they may even break. However, the third type of person is the “root.” This person may not always be visible to others or out in the spotlight, but they are always there. They support you, hold you up, and help to keep you from falling no matter what you may encounter. The roots are YOUR people! 

So why are you telling me this story? 

Today’s episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast take a deep dive into the power of being a “root” in life, as well as the importance of surrounding yourself with strong “roots.” In addition, Christine and Brian cannot wait to tell you about all their latest travels, racing, and chaos! Who is breaking records? Who stole Christine’s medal from the C & O Canal 100-mile race? Where are these two fit crazies headed next! Listen up for more!

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. This may just be the motivation you need to unleash your inner athlete and make huge changes in your life! 

Stay Fit! Stay Crazie!
