This episode is ideal for any athlete who sets goals and strives for them, regardless of whether that goal involves a time on a race clock or not. Host Sarah Bowen Shea and Molly Williams talk with three women who achieved long-held time goals—one in a 5K, another in a half-marathon, and another in a marathon. The guests share:  -how to find (+ maintain!) the requisite mental commitment;   -how intentional training can reignite a passion for running;  -the wisdom gained from consistency;  -how running taught one gal to be more flexible; and,  -how to “hang on” in the final miles of a race.    Before the first guest joins around 9:50, the hosts reminisce about the half-marathon in which Sarah helped Molly achieve her goal time (complete with too-short running skirts!). Head here to sign up for notifications about Sarah and Dimity's next steps.        When you shop our sponsors, you help AMR.We appreciate your—and their—support!   No more pins: Get 20% off, including AMR 3-pack, w/ code AMR2025 at BibBoards.com   Get 20% off, plus free shipping, on allIQBAR products by texting AMR to 64-000 Learn more about your ad choices.

Norm tries to make sense of the Cowboys' Thursday night meltdown — a performance so bad it should come with a warning label. Between the defense taking the night off, the offensive line playing like they were on strike, Pickens running routes like he's jogging a 5K, and penalties that felt like performance art, Dallas somehow turned a winnable game into a flaming 44–30 disaster. Playoff chances? Yeah… those packed up and moved out.But don't worry — Brandon Aubrey kicked really far, so everything's fine.

Tired of hearing "let me think about it" after every proposal? In this episode, I break down why most tech consultants are stuck grinding on $3K projects while plumbers are one of the highest paid trades. I share the story of David, a CRM consultant who was targeting the right companies but solving the wrong problem, and how one shift took him from $5K projects to his first $250K contract in six months. If you've been told you need better marketing, better positioning, or a tighter niche but nothing's moving the needle, the real issue might be simpler than you think.Resources and LinksApply for a Multiplier CallPrevious episode: 652 - Building a Top 3% HubSpot Partner Through Vertical Focus and Culture-First Leadership with Gemma PriceCheck out more episodes of the Paul Higgins PodcastSubscribe to our YouTube channel: @PaulHigginsMentoringJoin our newsletterSuggested resources

In this week's episode, Elena shares insights from the very beginning of her return to structured training after a true three-month off-season, including what's helping her rebuild consistency, how she's thinking about early Boston Marathon goals, and why maintaining joy in her routine matters so much. We then shift to Katie's turkey trot 5K at eight months pregnant: why she decided to race, how she approached a hilly, unfamiliar course at a “smooth tempo” pace, and what she learned about managing her competitive side, listening to feel over data, and reframing expectations while running in pregnancy. We close with a listener question on mental health, postpartum recovery, and movement during any planned time off, along with Katie's framework for setting realistic expectations, maintaining identity, and focusing on a healthy long-term return to sport.

Ever feel like your body is shifting faster than you can keep up with? This episode is a breath of clarity for every ambitious female runner navigating the wild pivots of perimenopause while still wanting to feel strong, confident, and in control.Louise, a multi-award-winning women's integrative health practitioner, performance scientist, and exercise physiologist specializing in empowering female runners to navigate the impacts of changing hormones on their health and performance, opens up about what it really takes to thrive in this stage of life: targeted lifestyle strategies, nervous system regulation, nutrition, and training methods designed specifically to work with our female physiology. She shares real success stories from everyday runners who restored their energy, reduced symptoms, hit their goal times, and unlocked their strongest physiques without burning out or giving up the endurance sports they love!Listeners will learn why most women struggle when juggling fat loss, performance, and hormonal changes all at once, and how a simple two-week focus system can restore clarity and confidence. Louise also breaks down the power of strategic off-season training (like a 5K block), restoring ferritin, balancing cortisol, understanding strategic carbohydrate amounts, and building a community that actually supports you instead of overwhelming you.If you're ready to feel capable, energized, and in control again, this episode shows you exactly what's possible.Explore our Breaking Through Wellness Masterclasses here: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/store  Learn & level up with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress here: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/Link to our FullScript where you can see our curated best supplement picks & save 20% off: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products: https://www.getkion.com/pages/maximizing Episode Highlights:(0:00) Intro(2:55) Ferritin, iron, and the new masterclass update(9:00) How runners are navigating perimenopause shifts(12:06) Why competing goals create loss of control(13:00) The four-month training cycle framework(16:04) Protecting health first: hormones, thyroid, minerals(17:40) The fine line between fat loss and performance(19:31) Why the 5K block is transformative(23:11) Rethinking carb strategies for perimenopause(28:38) Stepping into your potential as an aging athlete(30:26) New science: ovary, nerves, and longevity(31:47) Clarity + two-week cycles for sustainable results(42:30) Sleep, cortisol, and the real root of fat storage(45:57) OutroTune in weekly to "Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause" for our simple female-specific science-based revolution.

In this weeks episode of the Better With Running Podcast features Run2PB Coach Ben Stolz and athlete Shaun White, return to the show to recap Shaun's spectacular 2025 running season. Following a strategic focus on speed development, Shaun achieved a string of major Personal Bests (PBs), including significant improvements in the 3K, 5K (15:25), 10K (32:02), and Half Marathon. This performance surge was a deliberate part of Coach Stolz's plan to boost Shaun's foundational speed and power, setting the stage for a strong marathon attempt at Berlin Marathon, with tough conditions, we hear about how that all went down, including his fuel plans,and some training partners, who left Chriso speechless with the carb intake!Reflecting on his breakout season, Shaun and Ben highlighted several key takeaways for listeners. Shaun credits his success to consistency in training and adding strength training, which he had previously avoided for 20 years. He strongly encourages other marathon runners to "back themselves in" and focus on getting quicker at shorter distances like the 3K and 5K, asserting that this speed and confidence naturally translate into better marathon performances. The episode also touches on his shoe rotation.With thanks to Oat Running our partner, Listeners of the show can get a a 15% discount using "run2pb15" at the check out. Visit www⁠.oatrunning.com.au

Michael Jackson impersonators are apparently the hangover cure of choice after birthday bashes. In the mailbag, a 1960s Woodlands Goddess print sparks nostalgia (and $525 questions), while Joel delivers a wildly unhinged apology for his Perth charity ball antics. Meghan Markle faces online roast territory again, Schoolies hits the Gold Coast with a wholesome 5K run, and one husband’s insanely detailed pizza order for his pregnant wife goes viral, proving some men are doing it right.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sheila started running at 53 with nothing but a Couch to 5K app and a feeling that something in her life needed to change. What she didn't know then was that running would carry her through one of the hardest chapters of her life. After a breast cancer diagnosis, surgery, radiation, and chemo, she rebuilt her strength mile by mile until she found herself standing on the start line of her first marathon at 59. Her story is full of late beginnings, grit, gratitude, and the quiet confidence that grows when you prove to yourself that you can do hard things. In this episode, Sheila walks us through the long path to 26.2, the training moments that nearly broke her, the ones that carried her, and the finish line that shifted everything. We talk about aging as a runner, learning to fuel, becoming mentally tough, and that it's never “too late” to start.  If you need a reminder that running can rewrite your life at any age, this one is for you.

Welcome to the Live Running Q&A with Coach FORDY — your weekly chance to ask anything about running, training, racing, or running shoes! Whether you're training for your first 5K or chasing a marathon PB, this live session is designed to help you become a stronger, smarter, more confident runner.

America's next great distance runner might not be a pro, he might be a junior at Wake Forest.At the 2025 NCAA Division I Cross Country Championships on November 22, Rocky Hansen delivered the race of his life, finishing second overall and coming within striking distance of the national title. Last year, Rocky placed 100th at this same meet, so his surge is proof that he's putting himself up there with the best who can do it right now.But rising to the front at the national championship level is nothing new for Rocky.Before Wake Forest, he was a three-time North Carolina Gatorade Player of the Year (twice for track, once for XC) and a 10-time state record holder, including 3:58.23 for the mile, becoming the first in North Carolina to break the 4:00 barrier in high school.At Wake Forest, Rocky has only continued to elevate. He holds PRs of 3:38 (1500m), 3:57 (mile), 7:56 (3000m), and a stunning 13:07 5000m, which broke the Wake Forest school record and established him as one of the fastest collegiate 5K runners in NCAA history. He also placed 5th in the NCAA Outdoor 5000m last year.Rocky Hansen's story is still being written, but after finishing second on the biggest stage in the NCAA and making a massive leap from last year, it's clear he's ready for the spotlight.Tap into the Rocky Hansen Special.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it. Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen. If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W  N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run -THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

A rainy run outside Tokyo Disneyland. A Thanksgiving table full of training plans, inside jokes, and hard-won wisdom. And a milestone we never imagined hitting: 500,000 downloads. This one brings the energy, the honesty, and the practical tools you need heading into Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend and the Dopey simulation.We walk through the training calendar and get tactical about the big Dopey sim: why long-run pace matters, how to use Galloway-style intervals without overreaching, and a smart twist called “Gwinning” to speed up walk days without burning out. You'll hear recovery must-dos, fueling tests to try now, and flexible options for tough conditions—like splitting long runs with short breaks or moving indoors with race videos for motivation. We also talk watches, data, and mindset: hiding lap alerts, switching to time-of-day screens, and how one host found a surprise 5K PR by ignoring the numbers.The heart of the episode is gratitude and resilience. We share setbacks—from surgery and caregiving to a beloved dog's vestibular scare—and the choice to keep showing up. That spirit echoes through our Race Report Spotlight: a cramp-riddled marathon that still lands an age-group win, and a slow, courageous finish with a police escort blasting Eye of the Tiger. It's funny, it's real, and it's exactly the reminder you need that progress isn't linear—but it's worth it.We round it out with Space Coast meetup info, cruise running routes, island 5K notes, and a stack of listener race highlights from Norfolk to Silverstone. Whether you're chasing a PR, a proof of time, or just a joyful finish, you'll find clear steps and a community that has your back.If this helped your training or lifted your spirits, tap follow, share it with a running friend, and leave a quick review.

What if chasing a race-day PR quietly pushed your body back into amenorrhea?In this episode, Louise, one of the world's leading health, fitness and performance experts, shares a raw, real story of how one hard 5K and a busy stage of life almost cost her cycle again, even after 22 years of working to optimize her hormones. She explains what amenorrhea is, how it connects to RED-S, the former “female athlete triad,” and why so many active women are still under-fueling without realizing it.You will hear how stress from training, travel, family, and business all stacked up, how one race actually “kicked” her out of getting her period on time, and the exact steps she took with food, recovery, and mindset to get her cycle back just days after a half marathon. Louise also talks about seed cycling, perimenopause, and why every female runner needs a custom plan, not cookie-cutter advice.If you are a woman who loves to run, wants strong performance and a lean body, yet also wants a healthy, regular period through perimenopause, this episode will help you see what is possible and what to watch for in your own body.Learn & level up with my free nutrition guide and award-winning Badass Breakthrough Academy to thrive through perimenopause with less stress: https://www.breakingthroughwellness.com/  Take advantage of our podcast listener discount and save 20% off all of Kion's science-backed clean products: https://www.getkion.com/pages/maximizing Promo code LOUISE saves on all future orders!Link to our FullScript where you can see our curated best supplement picks & save 20% off: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/breakingthroughwellness/store-start Episode Highlights:(0:00) Intro(4:55) From female athlete triad to RED-S(7:35) When performance goals collide with real life(9:44) Racing hard and losing a period(13:45) Big lesson: never race on period day(16:04) How travel and stress tank recovery data(21:02) Recovery, food, and rituals that protect hormones(24:06) Period returns and what actually worked(28:44) Hope stories from women who got cycles back(31:47) OutroTune in weekly to "Maximizing Hormones, Physique, and Running Through Perimenopause" for our simple female-specific science-based revolution.

Think a million-dollar online business is out of reach? The real barrier isn’t the price—it’s everything you don’t see coming before you even sign. In this solo episode, Jaryd Krause pulls back the curtain on the part of buying a 7-figure business that almost nobody talks about—the real costs, the real timelines, the real competition, and the parts of the process that can quietly wreck your deal long before you ever get to the closing table. Most people assume a $1M acquisition is simple math:Find the business, put down the deposit, sign some papers, done. But behind every one of those deals are fees, structures, advisors, lenders, deadlines, and expectations that—if you’re not prepared—will eat your budget and your sanity alive. Here’s what Jaryd gets into:

Have you done all the introspective work to understand what you want, identified your limiting beliefs, and expanded your worldview but now you're stuck on how to actually translate that into a business structure that works? In this fourth and final episode of the Building From Your Design series, I'm showing you how to take everything from the previous three episodes and turn it into practical business decisions about your offers, who you serve, and how you market. I share why my resistance to social media and content creation was actually a portal showing me I'm not wired for that type of communication, how to factor in your own time as an expense so you don't end up paying yourself a dollar an hour, and why no expert should be telling you what your offer is, that's your role as an entrepreneur, and outsourcing it means you're building their business, not yours.BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL DISCOVER:How to pull together your success clues, your vision for expression and time, your limiting beliefs, and your expanded worldview into practical business decisions about what you offer, who you serve, and how you get visible and why this is about ruthlessly subtracting what doesn't align, not adding more to prove you're doing enough.The critical questions to ask about any offer like does this align with who I'm here to be? Does it compromise the time I want to spend on what matters most? Does the math work when I factor in taxes, tech expenses, AND my own hourly rate and if any of those answers are no, you have to revamp it or you're building on the wrong foundation again.Why resistance is actually a portal, not a block you need to overcome, my own disenchantment with social media and short-form content wasn't something I needed to push through, it was showing me I'm wired for depth, variety, and nimble pivots, not heavy structured funnels with ads running every month that keep my foot on the gas like my brick-and-mortar business I sold to escape.The membership math trap … if you're selling a $50 membership and need $5K/month, that's 100 people just to hit the number but then you have to factor in taxes, tech costs, and all the time fielding questions and cancellations, which means you actually need 150-200 people, and if you have a small audience that requires playing the volume game through mass visibility, which might be completely misaligned with your wired preference for quality over quantity.And while you're here, follow us on Instagram @creativelyowned for more daily inspiration on effortlessly attracting the most aligned clients without spending hours marketing your business or chasing clients.

I need to be honest about something that sounds terrible: I sometimes have to reality check myself when I'm disappointed we only did $100K in sales in a day. The goalpost keeps moving. By the time you hit what you desperately wanted six months ago, it doesn't feel like anything because you think you should've done it three months ago. This isn't a rich people problem. It's a human brain problem that happens at every level. Whether you're disappointed you only made $5K instead of $10K or $50K instead of $100K, the pattern is the same. Let's talk about it.

Critics say the cost of tariffs is raising prices for nearly everything... including parts of your Thanksgiving Dinner - but perhaps not in the way you might expect (at 12:24) --- Around Town: They say you shouldn't exercise right after a big meal, but running a 5K first thing on Thanksgiving morning is OK... We have details on the 15th annual Turkey Trot (at 21:11) --- What's Happening: A number of events to get you in the holiday spirit are coming in December to the Marathon Center for the Performing Arts (at 41:55)

Whether you're a beginner runner, marathon trainee, or a seasoned athlete chasing a PB, this live stream is all about helping you run stronger, faster, and injury-free.

I answer your questions on everything from blood flow restriction training to building muscle without living in a permanent bulk. He kicks things off by unboxing his new BFR cuffs and explaining why he refuses to have “expert” opinions on things he hasn't actually tried yet, then uses that as a springboard into the bigger theme of the day: trusting your own experience over fitness dogma and internet hype.From there, the conversation dives into practical training strategy: why eating in a long-term caloric surplus can actually slow your overall muscle growth, how to balance training to failure with hypertrophy work, and why cardio-style circuits often fall short when your real goal is building muscle. Matt also breaks down smart variation in calisthenics to prevent overuse issues, how much warm up you really need, and whether you can build 5K and 10K endurance without doing much running.You'll also hear about: • Using blood flow restriction as a tool without overcomplicating your training • The “tortoise vs hare” approach to long-term hypertrophy and body composition • Programming heavy vs lighter “cardio-based” strength work • Rotating exercise variations to protect joints without killing progress • Isometric IsoMax moves that carry over to better push ups and pull ups • Managing elbow pain with better scapular support • Why you don't need bulking, cutting, or macro micromanagement to look better • The difference between what's effective and what's actually necessaryMatt also shares details on the free 28-day starting calisthenics challenge, the Delta Digest email list, and the upcoming RDP video advent calendar focused on making fitness easier and more effective.

In S5Ep12 of the PRP, Adam heads to O'Toole's to break bread with longtime Michigan running mainstay, data deep diver, impassioned RFB co-organizer and steadfast steward of the sport Danny Johnston, who has been preparing for the Indianapolis Half Marathon. Lauren Wolf, fellow RFB co-organizer, clarinet connoisseur and proud data sorceress joins the show to offer her take on volunteering, larping and of course, the ever-expanding RFB offspring universe.Together, the crew digs into the story of RFB's rise—from a casual Monday beer run between friends to one of Michigan's most welcoming community fixtures. Danny & Lauren reflect on what it means to show up not only as a runner but as a volunteer, guide and advocate. More often than not, they note, supporting someone else's finish line can be more joyful, and far more fulfilling, than chasing your own.Things get vulnerable when Danny deep dives into his thoughtful Runner Language Research Project—what began as curiosity has grown into a full exploration of how we speak about the sport we love. He explains how tiny phrases like “just a 5K” or “only eight miles” can unintentionally shrink accomplishments and quietly gate keep newcomers while simultaneously robbing experienced runners of the credit they deserve. He reminds us that language influences not just who feels included, but how we see ourselves.His mission isn't to scold but to soften the edges of the sport and widen the on-ramp for anyone who hasn't yet realized they belong. It's a call to celebration over comparison, intention over ego and stewardship over splits. A reminder that every run counts, every effort matters—and that your “hard” is still worthy, even on the days you don't feel impressive.From clarinet solos to crag lessons, analytics to alleyway 5Ks, this episode highlights what truly makes running magical: the humans. The ones who cheer loud, volunteer hard, carry the vibes (not the boats) and keep the joy alive. A celebration of showing up, lifting up and growing better together.Exposure therapy, echo chambers and nanner haters oh my! This and more in this laughter-filled, perspective-shifting & data-backed episode of the PRP!Recorded Monday November 3rd @ 5:00PM EST

Send us a textThe road from an Okinawan family dojo to the rocky spine of the Northeast isn't as long as it looks. Meet trail runner and former Muay Thai athlete Niko Teller, a blue-collar UPS driver who turns daily mileage, discipline, and gritty terrain into real speed. We dig into how martial arts forged his mindset, why hips are the hidden engine for climbing and descending, and how he built technical downhill confidence on the Appalachian Trail, in the Catskills, and across the White Mountains.We break down the Northeast short-trail scene—from Chocorua to the Baldface Scramble—and why these 20 to 30K courses deliver as much vert and skill demand as some ultras. Nico explains how he trains when the “mountains” are 400 feet high, stacking hill repeats, AT long runs, and gravel bike cross-training to stay durable. Then we go deep on his JFK 50 game plan: smooth execution on the AT, a mid-race shoe swap into road foam, and a 6:30–6:40 towpath pace target backed by a simple fueling strategy of 90 grams of carbs per hour with Neversecond gels and mostly water in cool temps.We also unpack the hard lessons from Run Rabbit Run 100 in Steamboat—cold, hail, and a cranky Achilles—and how finishing on a tough day built more confidence than any PR. Niko shares why jiu-jitsu keeps him humble, how coaching with Fastquatch helps working athletes find balance, and what's next: Black Canyon 100K speed, a Cocodona waitlist gamble, and winter goals on the track with a sharper mile and 5K.If you love Northeast trail running, JFK 50 strategy, technical downhill tips, or blue-collar training that actually fits a busy life, this conversation will feel like a map you can use tomorrow.

Andy and Brendan! are joined by "The Boys" for this Wednesday episode in honor of the Butterfield Bermuda Championship. Andy is especially jazzed after a big Packers loss on national TV moving the Bears into a tie for first place in the NFC North. He attempts to once again besmirch Aaron Rodgers but quickly is moved to golf talk with a loaded schedule of events to discuss. Brendan attempts to deem the Butterfield as the "Event of the Week" but is shamed into giving it to the Schwab Cup Finals by Andy as a nod to PJ's continued Champions Tour coverage. Andy, Brendan, and Joseph LaMagna run through the field in Bermuda and Brendan shares his investigation into how some amateurs found their way into the event. The DP World Tour finals are next up on the "Schedule of the Week," with Rory McIlroy poised to secure yet another Race to Dubai win. The DPWT announced the new "Rory McIlroy Award" on Tuesday, now given to the European with the best performance across a year's four majors. To Brendan and PJ's surprise, Joseph reveals that Rory is ineligible for this award, leading to questions about why this even exists. The ANNIKA Driven by Gainbridge at the Pelican has made plenty of headlines due to a Kai Trump sponsor exemption and Caitlin Clark's Pro-Am round having extended coverage on Golf Channel. Finally, PJ previews the Charles Schwab Cup Championship as the 2025 Champions Tour season comes to a close. Andy makes plans for next year's swan song at Phoenix Country Club that involves PJ running a 5K race to raise money for colon cancer research. There's a brief discussion of some news surrounding the now-announced teams for the "Golf Channel Games," but Joseph isn't sure what to make of this made-for-TV spectacle. "The Boys" are then put on the hot seat by Andy and Brendan as they're quizzed about the future of "Lunch with The Boys," the Indianapolis Colts, and more.
