Mark, just quickly, is the OG in the health and wellness space, in my opinion. As an entrepreneur, he had this thing called the Daily Apple. You still have it, by the way. Yeah. It's not like it's gone. Right. But it started in 2006, which makes it almost like it's… 17 years old. Yeah, 17. And still one of the best newsletters that I've ever read. Thank you. You're welcome.
And Primal Kitchen, which is in my kitchen right now. So I'm just going right for the jugular. You look so… Good. How old are you? I just turned 70. You just turned 70. Okay. You look like you're like 40. Your body is insane. What are you doing? I want to know everything. I want that. I want to know what your routine is, what your regimen is.
You know, it's some genetics. Okay. You know, you cannot discount that. I've been athletic my whole life. So I started a routine, a habit of working out daily. in my early teens. It started with running, but I also started lifting weights in my teens. I've always been competitive.

So I chose to first of all, I was a marathon runner in the seventies, quite a good one. And from there, I got injured after seven years of, of overtraining and beating myself up doing that.
So I, I, I switched to triathlon. And so my first triathlon ever was Ironman in Hawaii in 1981. I went fourth in the 82 Hawaii Ironman.

You know, some people will play soccer and basketball or I now play, you know, Frisbee, ultimate Frisbee.
But in those days, I was just managing discomfort every day. How deep a hole can I dig for myself?
