Gaz Oakley, known as the Avant-Garde Vegan, is a vegan chef and cookbook author from Cardiff, Wales. He was described in the Daily Telegraph as "a star of the meat-free world" whose "recipes have gained the respect of herbivores and carnivores alike."&nbsp;
Oakley, who grew up in Cardiff, was taught to cook as a child by his father and got his first job in a kitchen aged 15. He left school at 16 to work in the kitchen full-time. For several years, he worked in hotel and restaurant kitchens in Cardiff. He then switched careers to work in a builder's yard, becoming a sales manager. The new job offered him more free time, and he took up fitness and strength training activities.&nbsp;
It was through this that he first started to move towards veganism. After hearing a radio interview with the vegan musician Jme, Oakley looked up videos of Gary Yourofsky, and it was these that encouraged him to switch to a vegan lifestyle. After success encouraging friends and family to transition to veganism, he decided to use his skills and experience in cookery as a form of vegan activism. He launched the @avantgardevegan Instagram page in February 2016 and, later that year, gave up his sales job to focus full-time on activism and cookery.&nbsp;
The Avant-Garde Vegan YouTube channel was launched at the end of the year. He went on to write several vegan cookbooks, as well as partner with The Vurger Co. and Wagamama to create vegan foods. Oakley told The Sunday Times that the COVID-19 pandemic had caused his subscriber numbers to hit one million.&nbsp;

Theodore Samuel Williams (August 30, 1918 – July 5, 2002) was an American professional baseball player and manager. He played his entire 19-year Major League Baseball (MLB) career, primarily as a left fielder, for the Boston Red Sox from 1939 to 1960; his career was interrupted by military service during World War II and the Korean War. Nicknamed "Teddy Ballgame," "the Kid," "the Splendid Splinter," and "The Thumper," Williams is regarded as one of the greatest hitters in baseball history and, to date, is the last player to hit over 400 in a season.
Williams was a nineteen-time All-Star, a two-time recipient of the American League (AL) Most Valuable Player Award, a six-time AL batting champion, and a two-time Triple Crown winner. He finished his playing career with a .344 batting average, 521 home runs, and a .482 on-base percentage, the highest of all time. His career batting average is the highest of any MLB player whose career was played primarily in the live-ball era and ranks tied for 7th all-time (with Billy Hamilton).
Born and raised in San Diego, Williams played baseball throughout his youth. After joining the Red Sox in 1939, he immediately emerged as one of the sport's best hitters. In 1941, Williams posted a .406 batting average; he was the last MLB player to bat over .400 in a season. He followed this up by winning his first Triple Crown in 1942. Williams was required to interrupt his baseball career in 1943 to serve three years in the United States Navy and Marine Corps during World War II. Upon returning to MLB in 1946, Williams won his first AL MVP Award and played in his only World Series. In 1947, he won his second Triple Crown. Williams returned to active military duty for portions of the 1952 and 1953 seasons to serve as a Marine combat aviator in the Korean War. In 1957 and 1958, at the ages of 39 and 40, he was the AL batting champion for the fifth and sixth time.
Williams retired from playing in 1960. In his first year of eligibility, he was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1966. Williams managed the Washington Senators/Texas Rangers franchise from 1969 to 1972. An avid sport fisherman, he hosted a television program about fishing and was inducted into the IGFA Fishing Hall of Fame. Williams's involvement in the Jimmy Fund helped raise millions of dollars for cancer care and research. In 1991, President George H. W. Bush presented Williams with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian award bestowed by the United States government. He was selected for the Major League Baseball All-Time Team in 1997 and the Major League Baseball All-Century Team in 1999.
Williams was born in San Diego on August 30, 1918, and named Theodore Samuel Williams after former president Theodore Roosevelt and his father, Samuel Stuart Williams. He later amended his birth certificate, removing his middle name, which he claimed originated from a maternal uncle (whose actual name was Daniel Venzor), who had been killed in World War I. His father was a soldier, sheriff, and photographer from Ardsley, New York. At the same time, his mother, May Venzor, a Spanish-Mexican-American from El Paso, Texas, was an evangelist and lifelong soldier in the Salvation Army. Williams resented his mother's long hours working in the Salvation Army, and Williams and his brother cringed when she took them to the Army's street-corner revivals.
Williams's paternal ancestors were a mix of Welsh, English, and Irish. Williams's family's maternal, Spanish-Mexican side was quite diverse, having Spanish (Basque), Russian, and American Indian roots. He said of his Mexican ancestry, "If I had my mother's name, there is no doubt I would have run into problems in those days, the prejudices people had in Southern California."
Williams lived in San Diego's North Park neighborhood (4121 Utah Street). At the age of eight, his uncle, Saul Venzor, taught him how to throw a baseball. Saul was one of his mother's four brothers and a former semi-professional baseball player who had pitched against Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, and Joe Gordon in an exhibition game. As a child, Williams's heroes were Pepper Martin of the St. Louis Cardinals and Bill Terry of the New York Giants. Williams graduated from Herbert Hoover High School in San Diego, where he played baseball as a pitcher and was the star of the team. During this time, he also played American Legion Baseball, later being named the 1960 American Legion Baseball Graduate of the Year.
Though he had offers from the St. Louis Cardinals and the New York Yankees while he was still in high school, his mother thought he was too young to leave home, so he signed up with the local minor league club, the San Diego Padres.

Christopher McDougall explores the idea that the best way to run is the way our ancestors did - barefoot. He suggests that modern running shoes may actually cause more harm than good. So, if you're a runner, you might want to look into the benefits of barefoot running.

The Power of Barefoot Running

McDougall digs into the secrets of the Tarahumara tribe, known for their exceptional long-distance running abilities. Their diet, lifestyle, and running techniques could be a game-changer for your own fitness journey.

The Tarahumara Tribe's Running Secrets

Running is Innate to Humans

One of the key takeaways from Born to Run is that running isn't just about fitness, it's about joy. McDougall encourages us to see running as a way to connect with nature and experience happiness. So, next time you go for a run, try to find joy in the journey, not just the destination.

Running for Joy, Not Just Fitness

Born to Run

Christopher McDougall is an American author and journalist. He is best known for his 2009 book Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen. He has also written for Esquire, The New York Times Magazine, Outside, Men's Journal, and New York, and was a contributing editor for Men's Health.
In 2009's Born to Run, McDougall tracks down members of the reclusive Tarahumara Indian tribe in the Mexican Copper Canyons. After being repeatedly injured as a runner, McDougall marvels at the tribe's ability to run ultra distances (over 100 miles) at incredible speeds without getting the common injuries of most American runners.
The book has received attention in the sporting world for McDougall's description of how he overcame injuries by modeling his running after the Tarahumara. He asserts that modern cushioned running shoes are a significant cause of running injury, pointing to the thin sandals called huaraches worn by Tarahumara runners and the explosion of running-related injuries since the introduction of modern running shoes in 1972.
In Natural Born Heroes (2015), McDougall explores various aspects of heroes and physical fitness, covering the abduction of a Nazi general during World War II, parkour, and other challenging situations.

Christopher McDougall’s journey begins with a story of remarkable athletic prowess: On the treacherous mountains of Crete, a motley band of World War II Resistance fighters—an artist, a shepherd, and a poet—abducted a German commander from the heart of the Axis occupation.
To understand how, McDougall retraces their steps across the island that birthed Herakles and Odysseus and discovers ancient techniques for endurance, sustenance, and natural movement preserved in unique communities worldwide.
His search takes us scrambling over rooftops with a Parkour crew in London, foraging for greens with a ballerina in Brooklyn, tossing heavy pieces of driftwood on a Brazilian beach with the creator of MovNat—and, finally, to our backyards.&nbsp;

In Natural Born Heroes, Christopher McDougall explores the concept of natural movement.

By incorporating more natural movements into our daily lives, we can improve our fitness and overall health.
