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.

Episode 274 - Rachel Lavin - Author of The Doughnut Diaries/Personal Trainer/Certified Life Coach 

“I turned 40…I was so tired of being unfulfilled…Whatever the “new thing” was, I tried it…Any diet is a repackaged restriction…” 

“It’s never too late to be happy. 

What is a “doughnut diary?” In today’s episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, Rachel Lavin explains exactly what led her to write, The Doughnut Diaries: A Personal Trainer’s Tale of Being Every Size from 12 Through 0! After over twenty years as a fitness professional, Rachel is finally breaking her silence about how her love-hate relationship with doughnuts led to a life-changing epiphany. While Rachel does NOT promote the overindulgence of the sweet treat, she does promote the power of loving yourself in order to stop the “madness of dieting, restricting foods, or using exercise to make yourself smaller.” Get ready for a glimpse into what your life could look like once you stop hating your body and realizing that you are not alone.

“In life, you don’t have control. You have influence…”

In this episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, Brian and Christine are headed to New Zealand! Get ready for an amazing conversation with an accomplished triathlete, marathon swimmer and author, Rob Hutchinson! After growing up in Newfoundland with an alcoholic father, Rob discusses how swimming and triathlon shaped his adult life and enabled him to live the life he deserved. Listen up as Rob describes his passion for marathon swimming and why he just can’t get enough of planning and executing some of the most challenging swim adventures in the world. You will not believe some of the feats Rob has completed! From swimming the length of New Zealand’s longest river, which happens to be 210 miles, to swimming 9 ½ hours straight in Lake Tekapo, Rob is just getting started. He also shares some unexpected swim stories, like when he lost a fight to a sea turtle, as detailed in his recent book, The Downriver Nomad: A Triathlete’s Adventures and Adversities into the Rapids. If you are ready to be inspired, or if you are ready to be amazed by the ability of the human body and mind, you will love this episode! …. And be sure to order his book!

Episode 247 - Stephen P. Smith, CEO/Creator of HOTWORX

“You learn what you need to know when you need to know it.”

“HOTWORX is a recovery workout…actively recovering as you workout.”

-Stephen Smith

In this episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, Brian and Christine welcome the CEO and creator of HOTWORX, Stephen P. Smith! Joining the show from southern Louisiana, Stephen takes us on a deep dive into the fascinating world of 3 dimensional training. What is that you may ask? HOTWORX is a virtually instructed program that combines heat, infrared and exercise to create a one of a kind fitness experience. Listen up as Stephen describes the benefits of exercising as “infrared heat penetrates your body causing you to sweat…isometric postures further accelerate detoxification by physically removing the toxins from your organs through muscle contraction.” Currently, HOTWORX has over 230 HOTWORX locations and 850 more are in development. It is no surprise that HOTWORX is quickly emerging as one of the fastest growing franchises in the United States and beyond! If you have yet to experience the benefits of infrared training, what are you waiting for? Stephen explains how in as little as 15-30 minutes you can “yoga, hot cycle, hot warrior, HIIT or row” your way fit! Check out www.HOTWORX.net to learn more, find a location near you, or invest in your own HOTWORX location.

Healthy Rants with The Two Fit Crazies - Episode 245

The Two Fit Crazies And A Microphone Podcast

Episode 245 - Healthy Rants with The Two Fit Crazies

“Today we are going to work on our mental health….sometimes you need to vent or rant to get things off your chest…like how many times each day are you solicited by strangers on social media can solve all of your problems if you simply give them tons of money…#annoyed” - Christine Conti

“LinkedIn messages are the new way to cold call…they always know EXACTLY WHAT I NEED to…grow my business…get more clients…improve my followers on social media.” - Brian Prendergast

This episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast has been a long time in the making. For over four years, Christine and Brian have been dancing around some of their most irritating pet peeves, but today, it all changes! Are you bombarded by strangers on your social media feeds pressuring you to buy their programs, potions, and pills with false promises of eternal health, more Instagram followers, or better yet, millions of dollars in hidden revenue? Me, too! Does everyone seem to know “exactly what you need” to “solve all of your problems?” Me, too! Are you completely annoyed by “Peter” who is currently contacting you from a small Thai village with the promise of bringing you fortune and fame from your impending collaboration? Attend my seminar, download my manual, input your credit card, bank account or social security number. It’s that easy! And all you are thinking is, “Thank God for this random person who just made my life complete!” You will not want to miss this hysterical, yet completely accurate rant session with the Two Fit Crazies! Can you relate? 

Rant Over! 

Stay Fit! Stay Crazie!

Christine’s Boston Marathon Recap - Episode 244

Episode 244 - Christine’s Boston Marathon Recap

“There is nothing like being in Boston during marathon weekend!”

-Brian Prendergast

“In-person races are back! Boston was my first big race since the pandemic, and I felt at ease with all of the new safety protocols and social distancing guidelines in place.”

-Christine Conti

Get ready for the hottest post-pandemic marathon news straight from the mouth of one Fit Crazie! Listen up as Christine recaps her experience running the 125th Boston Marathon and first big in-person event since the world went virtual. After an almost two year long hiatus from live events, the city of Boston did not disappoint. “The fans came out in droves, the Wellesley College girls were still screaming, and the Boston College students were as drunk and sloppy as ever once you got to Heartbreak Hill.” In this episode, Christine will walk you through what to expect before booking your next airline flights, riding public transportation, and navigating through large groups of people without feeling the least bit concerned or anxious. Hear about the new processes now in place for major races to be held around the globe but be sure you don’t forget your vaccination card or your negative Covid test results before picking up race bibs! As for Boston, while Christine discusses how strange it was to run this historic race in October with a 40% decrease in runners to allow for social distancing, there is still nothing like the Boston Marathon. If you are a runner, a running spouse, or simply just a fitness fanatic, put this on your bucket list! Be Boston Strong!

Stay Fit! Stay Crazie!
