My guest for this episode of the Guest Friends podcast is long-time bosom buddy: Ben Davis. Ben is a married father of four, seemingly a life-long soccer coach, and a Veteran who served for over 5 years in the Army (from 2003-2008). He also hosts the Arsenal of Hope podcast which focuses on dietary, fitness, and wellness tips - especially for Veterans. I met up with Ben at the Detroit Foundation Hotel podcast studio (the building was the former site of the Detroit Fire Department headquarters and was built in 1921). Amongst other insights, Ben shares why "sticking it to the man" was at least partial motivation for taking on 12 Ultra Marathons over the course of a year; how the combination of trail running and changing his diet became the most effective medication cocktail; and why planning a 22-hour run on Belle Isle in Detroit is so significant to him.
