    Ivy Insights

    The Coach Bennett's Podcast is a fantastic podcast that combines running advice, life lessons, and plenty of humor. As a listener who got back into running after a long hiatus, I was thrilled to discover this podcast and hear Coach Bennett's insights. His coaching style is engaging and relatable, making me feel like I have my own personal running coach cheering me on. What sets this podcast apart is its ability to go beyond just running and touch on various aspects of life, helping listeners find balance and perspective.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is Coach Bennett's ability to connect with his audience. Whether you're an experienced runner or just starting out, his advice is applicable and motivating. He has a unique talent for relating running to everyday life, offering valuable insights that go beyond training tips. His stories at the start of each episode are authentic and relatable, creating an instant connection with the listener.

    Another great aspect of this podcast is its variety in topics. While it primarily focuses on running, Coach Bennett isn't afraid to dive into other areas such as mental health, mindset, and personal growth. This well-rounded approach keeps the podcast fresh and engaging, making it more than just another running resource.

    As for the worst aspects of this podcast, there really aren't many to note. Some listeners may find Coach Bennett's rambling style a bit off-putting or distracting at times. However, I personally enjoy his casual approach as it feels like having a conversation with a friend rather than being lectured.

    In conclusion, The Coach Bennett's Podcast is a must-listen for runners of all levels. Coach Bennett's wisdom, positive energy, and humor make each episode enjoyable and inspiring. This podcast goes beyond simply talking about running; it provides valuable insights into mindset and personal growth that can benefit all areas of life. Whether you're looking for practical training advice or a motivational boost during your runs, this podcast has it all. Thank you, Coach Bennett, for sharing your knowledge and making running even more enjoyable.

From the breakaway move Joan Benoit (Samuelson) made barely 5K into the race to the final brutal lap of Gabriela Andersen-Scheiss this race made such impact on an incredibly cute little boy from New Jersey that he eventually would grow up (still incredibly cute) and dedicate most of his life to the sport of running.

    Send us a textEpisode 89. Stressed OutStress is real. Stress is a natural response we have to situations that feel out of control or hard to manage. So, if you're human... you're going to get stressed out. And right now, there seems to be a whole of stressed out runners. We're going to talk about what stress is. We're going to talk about how stress and especially long term and heightened stress can have negative impacts on your running. But this episode is about running and this is not about running. Because stress does not only hurt your running. Stress can hurt your life before the starting line and after the finish line is crossed. And you spend a whole lot more time living that life beyond those lines than running those meters, minutes and miles between them. So, if we can learn how to handle or deal with our stress better we can run and live better. And if we need help... help that goes beyond what we talk about in this podcast we know that asking for help from experts is not a sign of weakness. Rather, it's a sign of badass strength. Hope this episode helps. Cheers,Coach BennettBe sure to send any and all questions and comments to the mailbag: Coach Bennett's Podcast 9220 SW Barbur Blvd STE 119, #322 Portland, Oregon 97219 Get all the details about the Best Runner Ever Winter Edition and Best Runner Ever Summer Edition programs and learn how you can be a part of it here: https://showupsociety.com/brewebe sure to check out the Two Coach Bennetts Merch Store for t-shirts, hoodies, coffee mugs, pint glasses and more! - https://twocoachbennetts.com/merchAnd if you need even more Coach Bennett in your life you can scratch that itch by subscribing to the Coach Bennett's Newsletter.You can also listen to the Two Coach Bennetts Talking podcast on Apple Podcasts or on Spotify Podcasts Or you can follow on Instagram: @coachbennett TikTok: @CoachBennett Check out Coach Bennett on Cameo for any messages of inspiration or motivation or birthday wished or pep talk for you or friends or family or teammates: ...

Because we're talking about all the small things that you can do to make those big things you want to do easier to do... or at least more likely to be done by you. Now seems like a great time for this episode because now is always the right time ot talk about this topic. And because everyone seems to be stressed out and exhausted and having hard time making it the starting lines in their lives that they want to get to and over. The episode goes over small things like planning ahead, the W's, the wholly triumvirate of eating and drinking and sleeping, raditudes and baditudes, and there's even a ramble about just how great 1989 was for albums. Now you may be wondering why I go one and on about albums from 1989. That's because I mistakenly believed this was episode 89. It's not.

Other times it's about making changes, giving ourselves a little grace, backing off or yes... pushing on.

But if we are being honest then we know that it's the verbs that power and inspire all those nouns we love and adjectives we aim for.

And too often we diminish and denigrate ourselves when we set new year's resolutions. This episode is all about how we can set ourselves up for success by being in service of ourselves.

    Episode 68. Survive and Advance. September. For me... it was my danger zone. When I coached high school I looked at the month of September with a mixture of excitement and anxiety. Mostly anxiety. It was great to get the team back together in school but I also knew that coming back to school meant so much more stress for the athletes. The schedules they had all Summer were about to get completely thrown out. Class. Homework. Sickness. Races. Teachers. Classmates. Sickness. Late lunches. Early lunches. Missed breakfasts. Poor sleep. September was hard. And we were supposed to get better while we dealt with all of this? Everyone has their own September. Could be another month of the year like December or January or June. Could be a danger zone that lasts a week or a day. Sometimes it can feel like all you can do is survive and advance.  So, if you can learn how to handle and deal with and get through your own "September" a better way then you will not just survive and advance you will thrive and move forward. That's what I did with my Septembers.  Hope you enjoy this episode and thank you to mindset performance coach extraordinaire tammie bennett of the show up society for another great MIndset Minute.

    Episode 67.  How To Make Running Fun (Again).You do know that running is supposed to be fun... right? This is a big and important episode. That's why I brought the best Coach Bennett to the show! That's right! Coach tammie bennett is back! She's the mindset performance coach that we all know and love and she's back for this most excellent episode. Running is supposed to be fun! Doesn't mean it's always going to be easy. Doesn't mean it's not supposed to be hard and challenging. It just means that running is supposed to be fun. And maybe those hardest and most challenging parts are supposed to be the most fun parts of it all! When running is fun it means your ending runs wanting to run again and not dreading the next run. It means that you are being a better teammate to yourself. It means you have a better chance at getting better and having fun doing it. So let's make sure that running is fun (again). I hope you have fun listening to this episode.

    Episode 64. Hope. If you run then you're a hopeful person. If you are on a run... you have hope that the run will help you get better in some way. And if you have ever been around a starting line then you have been near one of the most hopeful places on this space rock. And that's a good thing because if you want to run as best as you can then you not only need to have hope you need to know you got it. This is an episode (following episode 62 Confidence and episode 63 Patience) about another essential ingredient for running success. Whether it's the hope one has before a run or the hope one has when they write a training plan or the hope one has when they start a race it's obvious that hope is always there for the most successful runners and coaches.

This episode is all about one of the essential ingredients to success in running. And it's an important episode because so many runners misconstrue what patience really means. It's not inaction. It's not wasting time. It's not being detached or complacent wither. Patience demands perseverance. And it demands courage and hope. And all of those things help you become a better runner... and a better person too. So, enjoy the episode and please be patient with some of my rambling. You'll be better for it.
