benefits The Atlanta Community Food Bank. This great event is a fun run
in the truest sense. You see everyone who signs up is placed in a
division that includes only them - which ensures that when they
complete the race they will have won their division. Imagine that, a
race that you are guaranteed to win. There are a few other fun and
silly rules to abide by or not. For more information contact Sally

On
tonight's show Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy learn all about the only magazine for women who want to lead a healthier, more active life from Kristin Harrison, Editor-in-Chief.


Each issue of Her Sports + Fitness is filled with detailed training plans, lots of nutrition tips, in depth profiles of active women and tours of fun travel locations. If you're looking for fad diets, or super skinny models then this is NOT the magazine.


Kristin explained that not only does Her Sports have their own triathlon team, they also have running clubs throughout the country. You can find Her Sports at events all over. For more information about joining the running club, or get training tips or to nominate someone for an active woman profile or subscribe to the magazine please go to their website www.hersports.com



We opened the show with Pilates Expert Brooke Siler. She is the author of some of the most influential pilates books out there. She wrote The Pilates Body and Your Ultimate Pilates Body Challenge.  She is a veteran in the  world of pilates and she has been personally trained by one of Joseph Pilates proteges. She explained to us the difference between yoga and pilates. She also gave us some insight into how pilates gives you a great cardio workout while strengthening your entire body. Her Re:AB pilates studio in New York City has been around for over a decade reshaping the bodies of actresses, athletes and regular moms and dads. For more information about Brooke, her studio, her pilates trainer certification or her books please go to her website www.reabnyc.com

Next up we had on Director Linda Burns and Andrew "Drew" Johnston, star of the new
documentary chronicling Drew’s rise from a cancer diagnosis to him competing in
an Ironman Triathlon in Hawaii called Living is Winning.



This is a great story - Drew is an elite athlete. He stared out as
a competitive pro cyclist, but after a series of accidents and concussions, he was forced to put down his bike.






Drew quickly changed gears and found success
and a new career as a triathlete. But 2004 brought devastating news for his
family, his friends and his future. Drew was diagnosed with Chronic Myelogenous
Leukemia (CML) and his body literally broke down.






But two years later, after taking an oral chemo called
Gleevac, and continuing his commitment to a healthy organic lifestyle, rigorous
targeted exercise and an extremely positive mental attitude, Drew is in molecular
remission.










Today, Drew competes at triathlons and Ironman events
throughout the country with remarkable results.  Drew's life story serves as an inspiration to others, to
strive to be your best in every aspect of life and to never give up your
dreams, no matter how distant they may seem.






 Their goal with the Living is Winning movie is to reach audiences all over the world, engaging
them with the passion that exists in the sport of triathlons to encourage the
passion that is necessary to continue the search for a cure for cancer. Living
is Winning will entertain everyone from triathletes to couch potatoes with
action packed race footage, moving interviews, lots of humor and a great
original score. They hope to inspire every generation to eat healthy, exercise
and become socially responsible through organizations like Team in Training and
the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Check out the trailer and buy the dvd at www.livingiswinning.com


No Dr Fitness' Fitness
Tips
this week but you can get his tips
every day at our new website www.wellnessminutes.com or on iTunes here. Or our blog www.drfitnessblog.com





Amazingly the Fat Guy is being followed by over 3 dozen
people who are interested in what he eats each day. Who would have
thought?  Anyone can follow the Fat Guy's eating exploits on
Twitter.  Food journals are great ways to lose weight and the Fat Guy is
always trying anything in order to lose those last 20 pounds. So take a peek
into his food diary. You never know what he'll write. Somehow he can stay
compliant to writing on Twitter but he can't fit in exercise each day. That's
right, moments after he eats something the Fat Guy Twitters about it and you
can follow him so that one day if you try real hard you too can look like the
Fat Guy. Please go to www.twitter.com/fatguy




Hot mom, Kathie Larkin was  not helping out tonight. Be sure to check

Remember we are now on every morning in Michigan.
On radio station WKNW. They asked us to create a Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy
"Wellness Minute." So now a new Wellness Minute runs on that station
each morning at around 7:40. Each
Wellness Minute features the doctor and I going over 5 of his best tips on a
given wellness subject like: losing weight, getting in shape, living a healthy
lifestyle, etc. Now these Wellness Minutes are available online.  If
you have a favorite radio station that you think would benefit from our
Wellness Minutes send them an email telling them about it and who knows maybe
you can hear us everyday too.



Also once again, I need you to please do me a favor. My kid Max has been doing
a radio show called "Kid Power Radio" for awhile now and you should
check it out. Tiffany from The Daily Candy called his family friendly radio
show "Hilarious!" This is a great show for your kids. It is kind of
like a kids version of David Spade's "Showbiz Show" on Comedy Central
or Entertainment Tonight mixed in with a little Wayne's World. Max recaps the week in entertainment
and gives his take and review of what he liked and didn't like on TV, at the
movies, video games, in books and in music and even restaurant reviews. Please
go to his site and download the show for your kid. He had a big show recently
he interviewed Meatwad from Aqua Teen Hunger Force on Cartoon Network's Adult
Swim. And if your kid sends Max an email he'll read it on the air next week.
The show can be found at www.kidpowerradio.com
and you can email Max at RadioStarMax at Yahoo.com. He has gotten emails from
kids from England, Australia, China
and even the US.
Your encouragement is greatly appreciated.  Thanks to you his show is
rocketing up the charts!!!
