The chair is good, right? Like gosh, you've been on your feet for four hours between these

age stations. No, it's like a pit crew, you know, sit on the chair, you know, heck in

the boxing matches, right? They sit down between rounds, don't they?

Yeah, that's right. Sit in the chair. Just get up. It's fun.

Welcome to the trailhead of trail runner nation, where we go on virtual trail runs with interesting

guests. And we have a good one today, one that's been on our podcast multiple times. He's

going to tell us some great information that's going to help you become a better runner,

maybe a little bit better human being, a healthier human being.

We have Dr. Mark on today, Dr. Mark Cucazzella, and he's going to give us a little bit of insight

of things we should know about that we're at risk for when we're running down the trail

or showing up to an age station. And he's going to shed some light on this very important

topic inside tracker.com. Boy, we have loved this company, haven't we, Freeman?

Well, there's a good reason because it tells us what's going on the inside. Our watch tells

us what's going on the outside. But how do you know what's going on on the inside?

You go to inside tracker, you select a plan from their website, they send someone out to your

house or to your work and they draw blood. And then they tell you all of the biomarkers that

are important for endurance athletes, they could just leave it there and that'd be worth the money.

But they take it the next step and they help create a plan for you to improve and then help

you keep accountable to that plan. You know, what I select this got, I said, I want to be faster

and feel younger and they had a plan for that. Well, kind of they did, they said, Freeman,

you need to improve in these areas and they send me out messages to make sure that I'm doing

those things, which is really nice. It's accountability. It's a health coach.
