Fancy running socks and $100 running shoes don’t protect your feet from blisters on 20 mile runs.

I had been hearing from coworkers about Lisa Thomas who offers obstacle course training locally.

You can survive days without water but only minutes without oxygen. Most people today have very shallow breathing and are not getting enough air. Breathe deeply from your diaphragm to ensure your cells are well oxygenated.
