Ian will NOT share his nut butter, and neither should you!  We rate gear by preference and need.  Talk about changing out shoes for runs. We also have a special guest to talk about injury prevention for trail runners!

 

Enjoy the show!

We dive into Liza's analogy game and the training plan for the next couple months leading up to Rebecca's first 50 miler.  We have a chance to talk about recovering from her marathon last week and the mental side of prepping for a much longer effort in only two months.  Enjoy the show!

Last week we delved into what Liza and Rebecca thought about on their training and race day runs so we wanted to see what the fellas thought about out there!

Eric Nordgren is involved with the Voyageur 50 which happens to be the race that our season 4 runners are running on July 29th. We talk about the history of the race, local running scene, trails, beer, and of course, the course.  Enjoy.

Knowing what you think on a long or tough run is one thing.  Diving into other people's heads, now that's interesting. Today we do just that on the show!

Ginger Gutting is a runner from Fredericksburg, VA.  A co-worker got her interested enough to train for and run her first ultra, the JFK50.  It was a heck of a day.  Listen to how it went, how she trained and who she got to agree to run it with her again this year!

It's true.  We are all gonna die.  What we do before that is our own fault. So, a little pep talk from the host with some examples you may be able to relate to.  Also, new rules for some of the shows we share on the feed.  And, a shout out to a very important person from Athlete On Fire!
