Tim Van Orden - Running Raw - 38 yr old (old for a runner) running 4 two years, was depresed, now I think you'd say he was an elite athlete. As well as running he also runs up tallest skyscrapers in the U.S.A. competing against elite scyscraper running athletes who go to all those events.
His is a beautiful & amazing story, it has lifted me so much & continues to do so. His videos are also lovely to watch, lovely nature and feel, guess it must be the endorphins coming off the screen as it were, or memories/good associations for me (Im a sucker for pretty/colourful running clothes, good scenery & endorphins/enjoyment of exercise.
He also talks about training below your lactate threshold, which unless you're a kenyan runner or tim would for them be 174bpm, and for non-runner 135. It means that no lactic acid gets produced, so there is no afterburn the next day. Which is amazing, so the gracefulness with which he races, as he comes in, well on one video at least, im sure on some he goes beyond that, it means u can run for hours, and the grace he comes in with, is not causing this exhaustion. You can go and get a test done for £65 and your limit will gradually increase. I personally am really enjoying it bcoz now Im exercises at 152 bpm (which i can't remember why i got i should train @ tht number, it was in an article i forget why now) instead of 180 which is what I used to do - read do for about a few days then give up for few months.
His results are through eating natural foods - Brendan Brazier an ironman triathlete who is coming into his prime agewise for his career, I think he's about 31, has been eating the same way since his career began. With major low energy for first few months as he tweaked and learnt to fine tune this excellent way.
Victoria Boutenko also writes interestingly on the subject, Ann Wigmore in her autobiography morre so & the story of Hazel Parcells is a reeheeally great one for amazing tissue regeneration (also seeing why the spinach is so great, it healed all her organs when she was at deaths door, that story is wicked in Joseph Diapenzas book on her - she reportedly would go into trances and have chemistry lessons from Paracelsus from the 14th C hehehe.. she used to own a beauty salon before she got sick when she was i think about 45.. and lived to 106 nd died a few yars ago) when best army medical doctors of the time sent her to die.
Though nicely Brendan isnt fully life-force fooder so there are lots of nice recipes in his books. And personally I wouldn't wnt to be without either of his two books, not to mention the fact that the smaller one Thrive as opposed to newer Thrive Diet has rejuvenation brownies in it.
