#296 - A couple years ago I released an episode on this topic, but I thought it was time to share some more on the same topic. Picture yourself out with a few of your non-running friends; all of these running "issues" are things you probably wouldn't want to bring up with them. Save them for your running pals! So, let's have fun and think about stuff you really don't want to talk about!

#295 - Technology is bounding towards the future faster than we know. The satellite service known as Starlink may be an incredible resource for ultraraces who have the capabilities to use it. Perhaps some already do. This week, I talk about what Starlink is, how it got started and how it can help create live race coverage for ultraraces that they never had before! I'll also talk about one race that was way ahead of the curve!

#294 - If you search back in running history Robert Earl Johnson and Wilma Rudolph will be two of the first names that you will see. Both are pioneers in running history, having achieved firsts in races and track meets, including the Olympics, that had not been seen before. Johnson was the first Black American to compete in Olympic distance running and Rudolph was the first American woman to win three Gold Medals in one Olympic games. But they were both so much more. And that is what this week's episode is about. So, join me as I honor this two magnificent runners and heroes!

#293 - This week, I talk about my short but wonderful trip to Lake Tahoe and Echo Lake and how important it is to get away to the place where that recharges your batteries. The Sierra Nevada Mountains does that for me like no place else. I know there's a place that you like to go to when you feel the need to re-energize. No matter how brief, it is better to go for a short stay than no stay. I also talk about my terrific training run and I finally figured out why I fell on that fateful day last December. It was a big week of discoveries for me and I'm so grateful to be able to share it with you!

#292 - A lot of components go into successful running. One of the most important is proper breathing. It may seem such a simple thing; we breathe air in and out. But is it just that easy? As is usually the case, there are a few more important keys to understand to help you on your journey to being a better runner. I'm right there with you! As I talk about each subject, I'm learning with you. Efficient breathing is something that can always be practiced. Even the most experienced runners can still work on their breathing skills. I hope this episode helps you on your running adventures!

#291 - Wow! What an incredible, wild and fantastic two weeks of running the Paris Olympics has been! I'm still thinking about all the races I had the pleasure to watch and cheer! This week's episode is all about the running races of the Paris Olympics. I talk about my favorites and maybe a let down or two. What were your favorites?

#290 - You might have heard of fastpacking before. It's the lighter, speedier little brother of backpacking. It's a thrilling way to see much more of the back country than a day trail run! This week, I explain what it is in detail and why it might be of interest to you. It's an excited way to get your trail running and camping all in one! Join me as we take a deep dive into another way to see the Great Outdoors!

#289 - Experienced CDT thru hikers tell those who wish to hike this longest of the Triple Crown American trails to "embrace the brutality". It's the longest and the hardest of the three. This week, I talk about the trail, including the history, what makes it so tough, the few FKTs and why it is of interest to runners! We are so blessed to have these incredible trails and even if it's just for an afternoon hike, make a section of the CDT be on your bucket list!

#288 - Jenna Burris is a licensed professional counselor and trail runner. She's found a way to combine her love of nature with her love of helping people and invented the term Trail Therapist. Though she didn't start Eco Therapy, she is a part of this new field in therapy and it's refreshing to hear about a new way to help patients. She shares this and more in this week's episode. Therapy is very much needed in our world and it's nice to know that someone is offering an alternative to a stuffy office!

#287 - With the creation of the Internationalist running shoe in 1980, Nike created a road running shoe that helped spark the tsunami of running that even today hasn't stopped. But by the mid-1980s, Nike realized that there was a lot more money to be made outside of running; lots and lots more money. They abandoned running for the greener pastures of trendy fashion. That was the corporation's first step away from running for Nike.

Throughout the years, Nike has had several missteps, some perhaps not deliberate, but many, could have been handled in better, more appropriate ways. In this week's episode, I talk about Nike's downfall as it relates only to running. Of course, they have had other problems not-running related. I'll leave that for other shows.
Much of the information I talk about comes from Kara Goucher's book "The Longest Race". There is a link on the show website if you would like to purchase a copy.

#286 - We runners have lots of habits. Some are not helping us achieve our running goals. This week, I help you improve your training by eliminating the habits that are hurting your running and I also give you some positive reinforcement by giving you some positive habits that you should continue! Many of these I've covered in past episodes, but none have been brought together in one episode. No matter how experienced a runner you are, it's never too early or too late to improve our running!

#285 - The 2024 Olympics in Paris begin July 26th and it promises to be a pretty spectacular games for running in general! There are so many track and marathon stories that these games will be a great one to follow! I give a brief breakdown to the different American entries in the track events and marathon. The track finals took place in Eugene these past couple of weeks and what a time it was! Many records were broken and memories made! I can't wait for the Paris Games!

I also talk about my 10-mile trail run and hike this last weekend. It was pretty amazing, my best of the year.

#284 - There are A LOT of things we can do to prepare for a race, or a long training run. I'm including training runs in this episode as well, as the preparation and recovery are usually the same things, aren't they? Many things we can prepare, other things we can purchase (who said running is a cheap sport???). Maybe you do some of these things already and others you hadn't thought about. In any case, it's fun to think about some alternative ways to do things and to give it a new perspective!

#283 - Dr George Sheehan was a venerable fixture in the 1980s running world. He was a columnist in the once-great Runners World magazine and many of us looked towards his wisdom and incredible running monthly. This week, I talk about his writing, his running and how he enriched many of our lives.

#282 - Each year, I like to spend an episode reflecting on sobriety and running and what it all means. In an era where alcohol and drugs are pushed on us in nearly every facet of our lives, it's good to take a step back and see if they are helping or hurting us. I have never hidden my sobriety, it's extremely important to me and I share some reasons why in this episode.

#281 - Summer means more sun and MORE heat! It's been a few years since I last did an episode on heat training, so I thought I'd do an updated one so help us maximize our summer training. We can make the most out of the lighter days and the nicer weather if we plan ahead and take some precautions. Let's have fun this summer and keep running!

#280 - Mile races are not very popular anymore. But when we think back to mile races, we may think of Roger Bannister breaking the 4-minute mile for the first time and how incredible it must have been. Or, we think of how this distance evolved into the 1500-meter race we have today. Or maybe, you think of the Beer Mile races that are rising in popularity today. There's something about the Miler to me that conjures storytelling, history and the romanticism of running. That's what makes it such a magical distance. Listen to this week's show to it's history, to the men and women who broke records and to a mile race that you can enter today!

#278 - The Pacific Crest Trail is one of the three Big Three American trails that also includes the Appalachian Trail and the Continental Divide. It is an incredible treasure of a trail: 2.650 miles of picturesque trail encompassing some of the most beautiful landscape you will ever see! This week, I cover the trail's history, what to expect if you want to enjoy a part of it, or all of it and some incredible feats of some very wild FKTs! The PCT is a national gem and we should all make an effort to see at least a few miles of it!

#277 - Unless you only run 5ks or are a casual runner and don't care about races, you will need to include a weekly or a bi-weekly long run. Long runs are terrific, but sometimes it's hard to psych ourselves up for getting through them. One long run might be a breeze, while another you may need some extra help! I'm here for you. I give you some hacks to get you through so you can help do your best in your next race!
