Jeff’s innovative ideas have opened up the possibility of running and completing a marathon to almost everyone. Philosophically, Jeff believes that we are all designed to run and walk – and he keeps finding ways to bring more people into the positive world of exercise.

Getting Started

The average age of the runner/walker has increased to 40+. The unequaled positive attitude boost, significant stress release, and overall increase in vitality, focus, and creativity are reasons why people start to and continue to run/walk.

Part of the fulfillment must come from getting back to our roots. Our ancient ancestors walked and ran thousands of miles yearly to survive. In the process, they developed and passed on a treasury of physical and mental rewards, which we renew with each workout. The challenge of a significant physical journey on foot unleashes some primitive connections to our identity as human beings.

If you are reading this, you are saying (or starting to say) that you want to take responsibility for your health and attitude. On the long list of benefits from exercising, those two are at the top.

Choosing a goal, whether just getting off the couch, 5K, 10K, Half Marathon, Marathon, or beyond, will leave you feeling like a champion, and your life will be changed for the better.

Before you begin:

There are few people who should not exercise because of cardiovascular, structural, muscular, or other problems.
It is very important to ensure that you are not in this risk category.

  • Before beginning any exercise, diet, or other improvement program, be sure to have yourself and the program evaluated by specialists in the areas you are pursuing.
  • The advice on this website is just advice from one exerciser to another. It is not meant to be medical advice and should not be taken as such.
  • Specific structures and problems of individuals may require program modifications.
  • In each area, find specialists who are also knowledgeable about the positive and other effects of exercise and running.
  • Ask several respected leaders in the fitness community for recommendations of specialists.
  • Always back off any exercise or program when you feel any risk of injury or health.
  • The benefits come from regular exercise and steady adherence to a long-term program.
  • Never radically increase the amount of exercise or drastically change diet and other health elements.

  • Have fun, and you’ll want to continue.
