John Kelly holds a spot in the Guinness World Book of Records, is a Chief Technology Officer, and is the 15th person to finish the Barkley Marathons. John shares stories on how he trained for the Montane Spine Race, surviving the Barkley, and how he still has time for family at the end of the day. Who is John Kelly? John Kelly is an ultrarunning data scientist, father of three with a former triathlon habit. He is the Chief Technology Officer of Envelop Risk, and to support his ability to do that day job with a clear mind he runs, bikes, and hikes. He also used to be a pretty serious water skier and World of Warcraft player.John has been running most of his life. In high school he was a good, but not a great runner. During college and grad school, John essentially took a full decade off from the sport. After grad school, he rediscovered his love of the mountains on a road trip out west that included hiking the John Muir Trail with his incredible wife Jessi.John ended up running the 2013 Marine Corps Marathon, and it was an absolute disaster. It was his first race in 10 years, his longest race by 20 miles, and his training had been horribly insufficient. Of course, immediately after that, John said, “I think I can do better” and signed up for another.John has always been a math and computer person who enjoys finding patterns and automating complex processes. An opportunity at a startup, where there was less bureaucracy and John would have more influence over research and applications, was something he couldn’t walk away from. In the summer of 2015, around the same time that he got serious about ultrarunning and triathlons, as he made the jump to become the Director of Analytics at QxBranch, a data analytics startup in downtown DC. That startup partnered with a company in the UK to create another startup, Envelop Risk, that could better deliver that product to customers and insurance partners.Highlights[3:30] Setting a world record[7:30] The appeal of data science[9:55] Returning to running[15:44] Thriving at the Barkley Marathons [22:30] How ultra resilience transfers to everyday life[30:06] The biggest mistakes people make with marathons[36:15] John’s training regimen[43:50] Sleep optimization for performance endurance[49:45] Use data in the training[55:38] Maintaining work-life balanceResourcesThe Barkley Marathons DocumentaryBarkley MarathonsUpper Kelly CampDavid Roche -Training For Busy AthletesGarmin Forerunner 945The BibleSponsorsCAR.O.LYou don’t have time for that 45 minute jog. You need something fast, efficient, and leaves you wanting more. My favorite tool for this is the CAR.O.L.

Dr. Dominic D’Agostino is a leading researcher into the therapeutic effects of the ketogenic diet. He is featured on Joe Rogan, Tim Ferriss, Impact Theory, TED, and dozens of other top media outlets. This is a wide-spanning conversation on high fat diets, time-restricted feeding, fasting, and even nutrition psychotherapy.Who is Dr. Dominic D’Agostino? Dominic D’Agostino, Ph.D., has maintained involvement in a vast array of professional, academic and personal endeavors. As an Associate Professor with tenure at the University of South Florida, Dom teaches students of the Morsani College of Medicine and the Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Physiology, with a focus on such topics as neuropharmacology, medical biochemistry, physiology, neuroscience, and neuropharmacology. He is also a Research Scientist at the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC) to assist with their efforts towards optimizing the safety, health and resilience of the warfighter and astronaut.His laboratory develops and tests metabolic-based strategies for targeting CNS oxygen toxicity (seizures), epilepsy, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. To investigate the mechanism of these pathologies he uses a variety of in vivo and in vitro techniques, including radio-telemetry (EEG, EMG), electrophysiology, fluorescence microscopy, confocal microscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), biochemical assays and in vivo bioluminescence imaging. His laboratory has adapted many of these techniques for use inside environmental chambers, which allows them to manipulate oxygen concentrations (from hypoxia to hyperbaric oxygen). His current project is to identify cellular mechanisms of seizures from CNS oxygen toxicity and to develop mitigation strategies against it. His efforts have focused specifically on measuring brain EEG, neuronal excitability, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and biomarkers of oxidative stress. The main focus of his lab over the last 10 years has been understanding the anticonvulsant and neuroprotective mechanism of the ketogenic diet and ketone metabolite supplementation. The shift in brain metabolism (from glucose to ketones) reduces neuronal hyperexcitability, oxidative stress and enhances brain energy metabolism. This approach can be used to treat a wide variety of pathologies linked pathophysiologically to metabolic dysregulation, including cancer. Other areas of interest include researching drugs that target cancer-specific metabolic pathways. He was a research investigator and crew member on NASA’s Extreme Environment Mission Operation (NEEMO 22) and has a personal interest in environmental medicine and methods to enhance safety and physiological resilience in extreme environments. His research is supported by the Office of Naval Research (ONR), Department of Defense (DoD), private organizations and foundations.With a wide range of research interests, Dominic D’Agostino holds membership in the Undersea and Hyperbaric Medicine Society, Aerospace Medical Association, Society of Neuroscience, American Physiological Society, and the American Association of Cancer Research, additionally serving on numerous editorial boards and as a Reviewer for dozens scholarly publications. Before joining the faculty at USF, D’Agostino completed a postdoctoral fellowship in neuroscience at Boonshoft School of Medicine at Wright State University. A graduate of Robert Wood Johnson Medical School and Rutgers University, Dominic D’Agostino earned his Ph.D. and B.S. from these respective institutions.Highlights[3:44] Making two different diets work at home[7:14] Life underwater for 10 days[20:01] APOE4 and the Ketogenic diet's effects on Alzheimer's disease [27:37] Effects of removing dairy and saturated fat on biomarkers[33:21] The ketogenic diet and atherosclerosis[37:40] How to build muscle in ketosis[41:27] Taking a year off from weightlifting[47:40] How to lose the benefits of intermittent fasting[54:10] Dr. Dom’s opinion on one meal a day[56:16] Should you schedule cheat meals?[1:06:00] The importance of micronutrients[1:08:05] The best keto snacks[1:13:40] Adherence and ketosisResourcesNASA NEEMONEEMO 22 Photo GalleryThe Charlie FoundationByrd Alzheimer's InstituteMary NewportDr. Dom’s BlogPractical Guides to the Keto DietSponsorsKeto Nutritionketonutrition.org is Dr. Dominic D’Agostino’s personal website.

Ingrid De La O and Ilana Friedman are the Co-Founders of Tusol Wellness. Ingrid reveals her battle with Crohn’s disease, inflammation, and depression and the recipes and formulations that are now used into Tusol’s smoothies. Ilana shares her story on transitioning into the wellness world driven by her passion for agriculture and organic food sourcing.Who are Ingrid De La O and Ilana Friedman? Ilana Friedman and Ingrid De La O are taking the wellness industry by storm with TUSOL, A new line of nutrient-dense, scientifically formulated smoothies that promote health on a cellular levelThey co-founded TUSOL in Malibu in 2018. llana previously worked at The French Laundry, a three Michelin star restaurant in the Napa Valley, as well as Meadowood, one of the top resorts in the world.Ilana met Ingrid earlier that year in Malibu, where Ingrid was creating powerful customized smoothies for private clientele. Each elixir had specific properties: some boosted serotonin, while others provided the body with every amino acid it needs.Ingrid had healed her own post-partum depression and Crohn’s Disease through a clean lifestyle that revolved around these smoothies and was on a mission to similarly optimize the lives of others. Ilana wanted to leave the high-end restaurant industry, which prioritizes the fine dining experience over other factors and focus instead on food as a means to longevity, wellness, and happiness.Between llana’s luxury experience and Ingrid’s practical experience, TUSOL was born of their mutual fascination with the body’s natural ability to quickly self-heal with the right nutrition. Literally, TUSOL means “Your Sun” in Spanish—the sun within you, the energy that fuels you. It also means “Two Souls,” the bonds of a friendship that turned into a commitment to raising the human spirit through deep, personalized, practical nutrition and lifestyle.Ilana Freidman’s passion for wellness began while running a weekly Farmers Market on her college campus — UC Berkeley. Through developing relationships with local growers and purveyors and sharing their organic produce with the community, Ilana witnessed firsthand the relationship between proper nutrition and an elevated sense of well-being.After graduation, Ilana returned to LA to establish a non-profit organization that connected at-risk teens in Boyle Heights with local farms and chefs to teach them how to incorporate healthy food into their daily lives. Farming practices and nutrient quality were of the utmost importance, as she learned to value the connection between proper nutrition and overall health.Ingrid De La O believes that health should be happiness – an internal garden cultivated by you. It took her years to understand this as she struggled with Crohn’s Disease and post-partum depression. Ingrid’s journey to better understand and connect with her body began upon the realization that the search for happiness is not an external pursuit, but rather must begin with an internal removal of the rubble that had caused our joy to fade. The next step after removing the rubble is to accept and love what she found and let others see her happiness shine from within.Highlights[3:23] Man Crush's and Working at The French Laundry[5:56] Ingrid’s experience with Crohn’s disease[10:59] Controlling inflammation with superfoods[25:40] Ilana’s transition from French Laundry to the health industry[34:00] The beginning of Tusol Wellness[37:45] Sourcing the ingredients for the Tusol Smoothies[45:19] Coming up with the unique formulations[51:42] Expanding the product line into other amazing meal replacement packsResourcesThe French Laundry Meditations by Marcus AureliusAwareness by Anthony De MelloOn the Shortness of Life by SenecaMan's Search for Meaning by Victor FrancoThis Is Your Brain on Parasites by Kathleen McAuliffePirates of the Cell by Andrew ScottWhy We Sleep by Matthew WalkerSponsorsBlue CannatineOne of my favorite tools for cognitive enhancement, especially after long plan rides, is Blue Cannatine.
