RUNGA Radio 008 | Regan Burns - Laughing Your Way to 3% Body Fat
Regan Burns runs more obstacle course races than you do. It’s a fact. He’s only running 15 this year, but don’t worry, he’s not slowing down. He’s just also busy doing other things like being an actor, a comedian, a personal trainer, an OCR trainer, a running instructor, a psychic, and a dad.
“Your body is a giant battery. We become so ungrounded emotionally because we are literally not grounded.”
With a laundry list of occupations like that, it shouldn’t be any surprise that this episode is the Godfather of Stacked episodes to date. Regan’s so easy to talk to that the time just flies. We leave virtually no stone unturned on this one: from health trends we wish we hadn’t embraced, to parenting strategies, to reasons why your mindfulness practice isn’t making you happy, to our approaches to alcohol consumption. Buckle up, it’s a hell of a ride!
“You know who you should work with? Truckers.”

A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away…no, really! Four Sigmatic has a wide variety of delicious superfood (and super-good-for-you) beverages made with medicinal mushrooms. Their Mushroom Coffee with Lion’s Mane is my go-to choice when on the road, and at home, I like to start every workday with a double dose of pure Lion’s Mane.
