PROFILE

Inside the Mind and Miles of Ultra Runner Andrew Glaze

The 45-year-old fire captain from Southern California has become a prominent figure in the world of distance running over the past few years, thanks in part to social media and his streak of running over 100 miles each week – for the past (almost) four years. So what’s motivating this guy to run so much?

THINGS TO…
…DO 💪

Spice Up Your Plank

Does anyone really like planking? The answer is probably no, but the benefits of this isometric exercise are hard to deny. If the traditional plank doesn’t do it for you, try spicing it up with these six variations. Your core will thank you (or hate you, hard to say).

…KNOW 💊

What is NAD+, and Do You Really Need It?

The supplement NAD+ has become somewhat of a buzzword in recent years. Said to delay — and even reverse — aging, boost energy, and reduce inflammation, this little coenzyme sounds pretty powerful, but is it really all it’s cracked up to be?

…EAT 🍰
