Having won last week’s Republican Caucuses in Iowa, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee hopes to carry that momentum throughout the U.S. Presidential Primaries and this April’s Boston Marathon (where he will compete on a charity relay team).
TheFinalSprint.com had a chance to speak with Governor Huckabee in a podcast interview last March and he discussed his life-saving battle with obesity and how that experience has influenced his plans for health care reform as a 2008 candidate for the U.S. presidency.
Download this installment of the TFS Podcast “Best of” Series to hear how Huckabee, who once had trouble even walking up the steps of the U.S. Capital Building without being out of breath, changed his life and inspired others by losing over 110-pounds, holding off Type-2 Diabetes, and becoming a marathon runner!

In Episode 47 of The Final Sprint Podcast I was proud to be joined by Senator Bill Frist.
Senator Frist has not only achieved great success and widespread recognition for his work as an elected official, but is another example (like Oprah, Al Gore, P. Diddy, Kim Alexis, Shannon Miller, and of course Jim Ryun) of a public figure that has successfully completed a marathon. As a matter of fact, in just ten years Senator First was able to complete 7 marathons
and 2 half-marathons despite the demands of public service.
Senator Frist (who is also a heart surgeon, 
author and pilot) represented the people of Tennessee for two terms, served as the Majority Leader for the Republican Controlled Senate, and is among the most influential people on health care policy in America.
In the interview Senator Frist discusses how he got into running, overcoming the loss of his kneecap in a motorcycle accident, and how he found the time to train for marathons while serving as the third person in the United States’ line of executive succession.
Download the podcast to hear Senator Frist speak about these issues, as well as, his passion and views on health and fitness (and how they affected his own legislative initiatives), the many other government officials who run and have completed marathons (i.e. - Senator John Edwards and former Governor Mike Huckabee) and much more!

Today’s podcast features my interview with the TFS’s March 2007 Success Story: former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee.
In 2003, Mike learned that he had developed adult-onset (type-2) diabetes and would not live more than 10 years without losing weight. Faced with his own mortality, Mike decided to completely change his life.
He took up running, significantly altered his diet, lost 110 pounds and completed several marathons. Mike continues to maintain a healthy lifestyle, runs on a regular basis and has become a passionate national advocate for proper health and nutrition.
Download the podcast to hear about Mike’s life-saving battle with obesity, how his experience has influenced his plans for health care reform as a 2008 candidate for the U.S. presidency, his advice for others and much more!
