At 102 years old, Mike Fremont holds world records, completes marathons, and still does chin-ups after adopting a vegan diet 30 years ago following a cancer diagnosis.
When doctors told him to undergo surgery or die in three months, Fremont chose a different path: he eliminated all animal products and transformed his health completely.
His story reveals how plant-based nutrition combined with consistent exercise can extend life far beyond what medicine predicted, offering inspiration for anyone seeking to improve their health at any age.

Do the hard things
Pawleys Island Bootcamp

DOING HARD THINGS RESHAPES YOUR BRAIN (Anterior Mid-Cingulate Cortex) & MAKES IT EASIER TO DO OTHER HARD THINGS • - This topic was discussed on the @joeroganexperience podcast (JRE No. 2195) as a daily protocol, the key feature being that you do something you don’t enjoy, but that is adaptive (healthy overall) for you. The data indicate this may even allow you to maintain cognitive function to later ages and to possibly even live longer. - You can listen to and watch the entire podcast on @spotifypodcasts and other platforms. - Many topics in the realms of science, health, media, olfaction (sense of smell), creativity and human performance, were discussed during the episode. And we did 2 rounds of experiments with smelling salts… - Thank you Joe for hosting me, and thank you everyone for your interest in science! - @hubermanlab @stanford.med @stanford @joerogan - #health #neuroplasticity

Most people who attempt the Appalachian Trail spend five to six months completing it. They walk ten to fifteen miles a day. They take rest days. They soak in the journey.
On August 12, 2024, at 5:47 in the morning, Tara Dower stood on the summit of Mount Katahdin in Maine — and started running south.
She was attempting to cover 2,197 miles of America's most demanding trail through fourteen states, over rocks and roots and mountains, across the equivalent of climbing Mount Everest sixteen times — in forty days. That meant averaging 54 miles every single day, on terrain so punishing it has broken thousands of experienced hikers.
Her daily routine: wake up at 3:30 a.m. Run and hike for seventeen hours straight. Rest by lying down on the trail itself for 90-second "dirt naps." Sleep a few hours. Then do it all again.
Three showers in forty days.
Then came the rain.
Bad weather in Maine and New Hampshire put her 100 miles behind the pace she needed to break the overall record — a record held by Karel Sabbe since 2018. She began to doubt herself. "Sometimes I would cry and beg Rascal for fewer miles that day," she later wrote.
Rascal — her crew chief, Megan Wilmarth — didn't blink. She had seen what Tara was capable of, even when Tara hadn't yet.
Mile by mile, day by day, the gap closed. 56-mile days became 57, then 58, then 59, then 60. "I began to believe in my own abilities," Tara wrote, "as we consistently hit those numbers."
With 129 miles left and the record finally within reach, Tara made a decision: no more sleep. She ran through the night, terrified of one wrong step on a rock ending everything her team had sacrificed.
On September 21, 2024, at 11:52 p.m., Tara Dower arrived at Springer Mountain, Georgia.
She fell to her knees. She placed her hands on the bronze plaque marking the southern end of the trail.
Her final time: 40 days, 18 hours, and 6 minutes — over thirteen hours faster than Karel Sabbe's previous overall record. She didn't just break the women's record. She became the fastest person in history, man or woman, to complete the Appalachian Trail. The first woman to hold that title in nearly a decade.
Along the way, she raised over $21,000 for Girls on the Run — a nonprofit helping young girls build confidence through movement.
When asked what it all meant, she didn't talk about beating men or chasing records.
"I hope more women get out there," she said. "It's not about beating men. It's about finding our true potential. And if you beat the men — that's an extra bonus."
She found hers on a muddy trail, at 3:30 in the morning, one impossible day at a time.
