    Episode 18 Ultra Mindset, Nakd, PBJ and the Trouble with Comfort

    In this episode we go over our Canadian Thanksgiving weekend adventure where Chris ran and Morgan biked 50 Km (31 miles) from Kingston to Westport, Ontario! This was Chris's first ultra distance run and Morgan's longest bike ride in some time. Oh, and it was pouring rain...so that made things slightly more soggy than originally planned. In Part 2 we review two UK exclusive flavors of Nakd bars (Carrot Cake and Peanut Delight). As we do every week in Part 3 we go over our fears of the week. Morgan will be facing down the dreaded peanut butter and jelly sandwich and Chris talks about what happens when staying in your comfort zone conflicts with your goals. Show Notes: Part 1 -- Ultra Mindset 0:32 Part 2 -- Buy it or Bonk 18:55 Peanut Delight Nakd Bar 19:51 (149 calories, 7.5g fat, 14.6g carbohydrates, 13.6g sugar, 1.8g fiber, 4.8g protein) Carrot Cake Nakd Bar 23:15 (148 calories, 7.6g fat, 16.2g carbohydrates, 15.6g sugar, 1.6g fiber, 2.8g protein) Part 3 -- The Year of Fear 26:00 Chris's fear of the week 27:18 Morgan's fear of the week 28:50 https://youtu.be/s8MDNFaGfT4 YouTube: https://youtu.be/SepdveN8IaU

    Ep 10: Gratitude, Tastes of Summer, Manicures, and Drinking Beer

    Go over to braveheartcanada.com for the full show notes. In this Podcast and stream, we talk about the what, the why, and the how of gratitude. After which we launch into tasting two bars: the Oh Yeah One Blueberry Cobbler, and the Daryl's All "Natural" S'mores. Unfortunately the video died while we were tasting the S'mores bar but you were not missing anything. It tasted like a peanut butter protein bar--not a Nutter Butter or Peter Pan type peanut butter either but natural peanut butter molded into a bar. No chocolate, marshmallow, or graham flavor at all. The Cobbler was more vanilla coating flavor but did have a strong artificial/natural i.e. New Jersey chem house natural smell and taste. Unfortunately, the coating was greasy. It also got a 5/10. Morgan and I finished up with talking about this week's fears: getting and manicure for Morgan and drinking beer for me.
