Dave King is a bad-ass marathon runner and a cancer survivor. Dave has been an inspiration for me and many others who are fortunate to cross paths with him. He was one of the key figures who helped me stay active when I was feeling down without any activity during the wintery Vermont days back in 2010 when I was there on work for an year. This life long working athlete is now retired from work and keeps busy with home projects, volunteering, running and gravel-mountain biking. 0:00:00 Intro 0:03:45 Running in winter and layering 0:09:20 How running helped us in Vermont winters 0:15:45 Ramping up for Marathon training and doing too much too soon 0:22:25 Starting running again in his 40s after stopping cross country in school 0:23:45 Starting gravel biking after a back injury 0:33:10 Training for Boston marathon qualification 0:37:00 Talking of maintaining form while running and cycling 0:39:15 Dealing with Cancer training for running during the treatment, building back up to marathon 0:44:40 After effects of cancer treatment and how running helped 0:50:00 Building back up after a freak back injury 0:52:20 Tips for working athletes 0:53:35 Closing remarks!
