So THIS Is Fitness | Health, Fitness, Running & Weight Loss


Health, fitness, running, weight loss... it doesn't have to be hard! Take it from a guy who's been there and "gets it" - your host, Darrell McTague. Having lost 130 lbs and finished ULTRAmarathons, he's learned it all the hard way so you don't have to.

We've got some strong feelings about running... sometimes.

When you're hot, you're hot... and when you're into running... boy, you are INTO it! You pour yourself into training, you get your significant other to help out and pick up the slack... you give it everything you've got! And God forbid something happens on race day to knock things out of orbit... like an extra half-mile added to your marathon... You're going to be heartbroken. Or go ballistic. Y'know, depending on your personality. 

But what happens when the love is gone?

We're not ALWAYS going to be in love with running... or fitness for that matter. The question is... what do YOU do when you aren't feeling it? Do you still do it? Or does it fall by the wayside?

What's in this episode:

  • Our weekend working the Maine Coast Marathon
  • The accidental .5 mlie detour at that marathon
  • The difference between Trail/Ultra and Road runners
  • Do we take things a little too seriously?
  • DO You FEEL it?! And what happens... if you don't?
