Tim chats with (and is interviewed by) Obstacle Racing Media Co-Founder Matt Davis. Tim and Matt discuss both sides of running - the Obstacle Course Racing (OCR) and the more traditional road and trail races, diving into what makes each side appealing and exciting. Matt also asks a lot of questions about Tim’s personal background, leading to some interesting new discussion around how BibRave got started and what Tim was doing beforehand.
If you’ve ever considered an OCR event, or have wondered what they’re all about, you should enjoy this episode. We also hope you dig the shake-up with Tim as both interviewer and interviewee!

Nuun CEO and Clean Sport Collective Board Member, Kevin Rutherford, joins the show!
In addition to leading one of the most popular brands in all of running and triathlon (definitely not an overstatement), Kevin is an incredibly nice guy and wonderful force for change in our sport.
Tim, Julia, and Kevin discuss everything from Kevin's life before Nuun all the way up to his involvement with the Clean Sport Collective - an organization dedicated to athletes and athletics free from performance enhancing drugs. They also discuss his pursuit of "Living Clean" and how that leads to a clean product, clean planet, and clean sport.

Dr. David Harmon (aka Cholesterol Dave from Episode 34: Nutrition Confusion) joins the show again, and we discuss something extremely important for runners to understand: inflammation.
Dr. Harmon dispels several myths and misunderstandings about inflammation, describing what happens during inflammation and why it’s super important for performance benefits. That means, stopping inflammation through things like ice baths and ibuprofen? Probably counter productive if you want to keep those GAINS!
Anyway, another super interesting conversation and we hope you enjoy. We also filmed the recording via Facebook Live, so check it out if you want to see what everyone looks like! 😂

Tim and Julia welcome the founder of Race Guards (one of their favorite running/race organizations), Andy Voggenthaler!
Race Guards provide races with trained medical volunteers who operate in teams of two, running the entire length of the course and providing immediate medical care when needed. Andy started Race Guards after an incredible in-race emergency experience and he’s built an indispensable service to runners across the United States. The three of them also discuss some really important race-day medical and safety tips for us all to keep in mind.
You’ve probably seen Race Guards at races throughout the country, and if Andy gets his way, you’ll see them at many more 😉.

What's up! Another episode of The BibRave Podcast coming your way!
This week, Tim and Julia host Jim Klopman, author of the book Balance is Power and creator of the SlackBlock (pictured above) and the SlackBow.
Tim and Julia are both big believers that good balance is a critical component of just about any athletic endeavor, and Jim definitely hits that idea home.
The three of them talk about why balance matters - especially for runners - and they give some "quick hit" balance improvement exercises you can start incorporating into your daily routine today. They also explore the idea that balance needs to come first, regardless of whether you're a runner, yogi, pilates pro, or weight lifter - for both physical and mental benefits.

Bam! Episode 37 of The BibRave Podcast is up!
This week, Tim and Julia welcome back BibRave Co-Founder and Managing Director of Runner’s World, Jessica Murphy!
Tim and Jessica talk about the Boston Marathon from their spectator and running industry perspectives. Pop-up shops, cool running brands, expos, exciting races and lots of great food/drinks are all featured themes. Then they reflect on the state of running, based off a panel Tim attended in Boston over the weekend, and discuss several ways the sport might improve spectator engagement. They were also happy to see most of the Leadville team out in Boston, and Jess shares some of the challenges planning to crew for three runners and four crew members.

Here we go, episode 36 of The BibRave Podcast!
In this week's episode, you'll hear about Julia's recent win at the Blooms to Brews Half Marathon in Woodland, WA! Then, perhaps ironically, Tim and Julia consider the idea that we'll all stop PR'ing someday and what that means to us as runners.
From there there they talk about Tim's upcoming trip to the Boston Marathon, airport fitness centers, the problem of race thieves and cheats, and finally a discussion about note-taking methods and Tim's most admired talent.

In Episode Episode 34, Tim and Julia welcome Dr. David Harmon to The BibRave Podcast!
Dr. Harmon is one of Tim’s good friends and running partner in Portland (remember this guy?), and he’s on the show to talk about some commonly misunderstood nutritional issues. Specifically, they talk about cholesterol and sugar, two things that we all hear a lot about but don’t fully understand. Both issues are extremely important to us as runners and as health-conscious individuals, and Dr. Harmon does a great job setting the record straight.

Episode 33, y'all!
This week, Tim and Julia throw a salad bowl of topics at you, discussing a ton of random things that caught their eye over the past week. Some are running related, some not, and some totally out of left field.
Big subjects are Julia's successful Shamrock Run in Portland this past weekend, the "sub 2-hour attempt" and our thoughts on how legit or useful that is, vibrating foam rollers, hilarious (and infuriating) videos, and some purchases we're excited about (or considering).
Have a listen, and enjoy!
