    EP. 76: A.I. Endurance w/Markus Rummel

    A conversation with Markus Rummel is the founder of AI Endurance. Not only has he logged many training hours as an amateur triathlete, he's also a physicist and has combined his knowledge of data, science, machine learning and endurance sport to create a dynamic AI solution for athletes and coaches. I have a conversation with Markus about his background and what lead him to the creation of AI endurance and we ultimately discuss how it will harness AI, take in data from most available wearable and non-wearable technologies and provide robust solutions for athletes and coaches. I also get Markus's take on artificial general intelligence (AGI) and RSI recursive self improvement. We talk about some of the alarms being sounded on AI and where he falls on some of those concerns including doomsday scenarios, the potential to make humans obsolete and the misuse by malicious actors.

    EP. 75: Dying to Run w/Coach, Nutritionist, Author, Matt Fitzgerald

    A conversation with endurance sports coach, author, and nutritionist Matt Fitzgerald. He is the author of 35 books including Dying to Run, An Athlete's Quest for One more Finish. "When Matt Fitzgerald is struck by long COVID, his lifelong passion—running—becomes a distant memory, leaving him trapped in a failing body that simply won’t cooperate. After authoring dozens of books and articles on athletes pushing the limits of human endurance, he is now forced to confront his own limits in ways he never imagined. Doctors have no answers and every day feels like an endless loop of misery and mental fog, but Fitzgerald is determined to reclaim his life and his passion." We talk about his book Dying to Run and his experience contracting and living with long COVID and I ask Matt to describe long COVID to the listener. We also talk about what went through his mind having to face the potential possibility that his endurance sport activities would be over, and his desire to go out on his own terms. We talk about how he is feeling now and how he has rebounded. Finally I get Matt's opinion on AI and it influence on training and racing for the athlete and the coaching experiences.
