| 10/16/26 | Episode 420: How to Manage a Prep Race | In this episode, I answer 4 questions about prep races: Should I do a prep race in advance of my primary goal race? What might be the reasons to do a prep race? When should I race a prep race if I choose to do one? How should I race it? Prep races can help you on the path to your goal race, but they can also take away from it. This episode will help you manage those choices along the way! | 35m 42s | ||||||
| 10/2/26 |  Episode 419: The Practical Side of the Carb Craze | You've heard all about the need to increase your carbs per hour, but what are you doing about it? In this episode, I give you 5 practical tips for experimenting with your in-run nutrition so that you can race faster and feel better doing so. And if you haven't re-evaluated your nutrition in a minute, then now is the time! | 27m 02s | ||||||
| 9/25/26 |  Episode 418: Race Strategy Blueprints from 5K to Marathon | Fall races officially kick off with the Berlin Marathon this weekend, which makes this an exciting time of year. You might have a 5K, 10K, half or full marathon coming up, and I've got you covered in this episode with race strategy blueprints for each of those distances. These are baseline blueprints to get you started in your pace planning, and I've got variations for each race depending on your experience level. Use these as a starting point and then adapt them to the course in front of you. Then, go race and learn! | 48m 56s | ||||||
| 9/20/26 |  Episode 417: Facing 7 Common Pre-Race Doubts | Fall races are imminent, and therefore, so are the pre-race demons that many of us often face in advance. In this episode, I give 7 common, pre-race doubts and talk through strategies to face them. The 7: "I did not do enough in training." "What if something bad happens on race day?" "I don't know if I can do this." "I'm just not good enough for this goal." "What if I let someone down?" "I can't handle the nerves and pressure." "What if I can't take it when it gets hard." Which one do you struggle with the most? Thanks to LMNT for sponsoring this one.

| 9/11/26 |  Episode 416: Six Tips in Final Prep for Your Fall Race | We are getting close to some big fall races from Berlin to NYC and Indy, and it is time to lock in (as the kids say).

| 5/1/26 |  Episode 400: Podcast Memory Lane | We take a break from our book discussions to reflect on 400 episodes and nearly 10 years of podcasting. Our hope with this one is simply to remind you and ourselves of why we do this. Thank you to everyone who has listened and downloaded through the years. We do it for you. One step at a time. Onward. | 1h 03m 06s | ||||||
| 4/24/26 |  Episode 399: The What, Why, and How of Down Weeks | Recovery is how you build fitness. We need recovery after hard and long days, hence our emphasis on recovery running. You also need recovery after hard weeks, so in our programming, we do "down weeks" every third week to consolidate the fitness gains of the "up weeks." Two up, one down. That is the rhythm of working hard and then recovering from that work to actually get faster. In this episode, we talk about the what, why, and how of down weeks. What do they look like? Why do we do them? And how do you make them as effective as possible with 6 key success factors? Almost at 400 episodes! | 58m 32s | ||||||
| 4/17/26 |  Episode 398: Taper and Post Race Recovery | In this episode, we cover the final 2 phases of your training block - the taper and the post-race recovery phases. Both are critical for hitting this peak and then getting to your next one. We give you the reasons for the taper and the mechanics of it (for volume, speed, and routine), and then we break down how to recover from your race. It is critical to taper in order to be fresh and ready for your A race, and then it is imperative to recover appropriately in order to start your next cycle on the right foot, pun intended. In this episode, we also talk about special cases, including tapering while slightly injured or sick, as well as answer questions such as "what to do with strength training during the taper?". It's time to get fresh and ready, y'all! | 1h 05m 12s | ||||||
| 4/10/26 |  Episode #397: Getting Race Specific | We continue our journey through the training phases. In this episode, we talk about the goals and guiding principles of the race-specific phase of work. This is where you put the icing on the cake or the cherry on top of the sundae. You've earned the right to be a little more aggressive, but it's time to crowd out the noise/distractions and focus on the final steps to be race-ready! | 1h 08m 12s | ||||||
| 4/3/26 |  Episode #396: What is Aerobic Strength? | Last week was all about that base. This week is all about that aerobic strength - the aerobic strength phase of work specifically. We think there is a lot of confusion about this phase of work and what's involved. We break it all down in this episode. It's about building endurance and staying power in order to be prepared for the race specific phase to come. We give you guidelines on volume building, sharpening, and the nature of the workouts in this phase of work with plenty of examples. If your base is big enough, then the next step is to get aerobic strong enough as you step toward the big day! | 1h 05m 15s | ||||||
