Episode #316: 10 [Running] Lies We Tell Ourselves May 06, 2023

Show notes

It's time to change the narrative!!

As a coach, I consistently here similar, negative things from the runners I meet and coach, but mostly these are false narratives that get in the way of reaching true potential. In this episode, I give you 10 of those lies and tell you how to change your story.

From "I'm not a runner" to "I'm slow" or "I don't have time," the list goes on and on.

Which of these lies do you believe about yourself? Are you ready to flip the script?!?

Episode #314: Boston Marathon Recap with Kara Goucher Apr 21, 2023

Show notes

I am still coming off the high from Boston Marathon weekend, and as such, I had to get back to some of my podcasting roots with this recap episode. Fortunately, Kara Goucher was willing to join me to break it all down! We break down the elite races on both sides and talk about an historic day for American marathoning, especially on the women's side.

Plus, we debate Kara's hot take that Kipchoge might not be the GOAT of marathoning. You have to listen in to hear her case for someone else.

Even with amazing vibes from the weekend, we finish by talking about an area where Boston can continue to get better. Even still, we can't wait to do it all again next year!

Episode #313: Managing Tough Weather on Race Day Apr 15, 2023

Show notes

There is nothing worse than training for 4-5 months for a single race only to have the weather betray you on race day. Heat, cold, wind, and rain... any of those can derail a well-executed training cycle. In this episode, I talk about each of those conditions and discuss how you should adjust your pacing strategy and your race day approach to give you best opportunity for success. You may have to accept adjustments to your pacing strategy, but you can still run a beautiful race, one that will make you proud for years to come.

Episode #310: Mastering the Marathon (especially Boston) with Nell Rojas Mar 25, 2023

Show notes

Nell Rojas has been the top American at the last two Boston marathoners and is set to line up there again in 3 weeks. Her path to the front of elite marathoning has not been a direct one, however, and we talk about that winding path in this conversation.

In particular, her journey includes becoming a coach for the every-day athlete well before she was chasing podiums at Boston and NYC.

In this conversation, we talk about her background but then dive into her coaching philosophy, including what it takes to perform well in the marathon and especially Boston. Listen all the way to the end because her thoughts on mental prep for Boston are absolute gold!
