Podcasts about 5K

The Brussels Diamond League final is coming up, World Ultimate Championships in Budapest is in nine days, and the season is headed toward its conclusion. Preet went from Zurich to Bellinzona for the last qualifying weekend, interviewed Coach Laurent Mewly (Femke Broeders-Bol's coach), and is heading to Brussels tomorrow.Discussed in this episode:– Nadia Battocletti runs 3:57 at Bellinzona — Italian 1500m national record. Her range of personal bests across the 1500m, 5K, and 10K is comparable to Hellen Obiri.– Gracie Morris — moves from Puma to Mike Smith's Swoosh TC group: Preet spoke to her in Bellinzona. She explained that the Puma group has become increasingly marathon-oriented (with Dorcas Ewoi as the one 1500m athlete staying). Morris didn't want to wait for that transition, so she moved to Mike Smith and started doing double threshold.– Sabastian Sawe withdraws from the Berlin Marathon due to a stress fracture in his right tibia: This eliminates any remaining fall marathon options. Valencia, where Yomif Kejelcha will attempt to go sub-2 again, is off the table. This is Sawe's second injury in 2026 (he was dealing with something coming into London but recovered in time).– Sydney Marathon results — second year as an Abbott World Major: Adisu Gobena wins the men's race in 2:04:42, breaking the course record. He's 21 years old, debuted at 19 in Dubai, and previously beat Conner Mantz at the Houston Half. Peres Jepchirchir wins the women's race in 2:18:31 by nearly four minutes.– Athlos NYC — canceled: Statement from Alexis Ohanian cited athlete feedback. Laurent Meuwly posted a pointed response on Twitter: athletes who prioritized their welfare by declining lost the chance to compete at the London date too (because participation was tied to both), and that the realization came very late.+ Brussels Diamond League Final preview.____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: OLIPOP's Citrus Rush packs apple, lemon, lime, and orange juices with 60mg of green tea caffeine for a bold, refreshing blast of flavor ready to fuel your next adventure.

In this Meaningful Money Q&A episode, Pete Matthew and Roger Weeks answer listener questions on planning for mini-retirements, changing career into financial planning, accessing pensions with a guaranteed annuity rate, and whether to take tax-free cash from a defined benefit pension. They also discuss how to manage inherited money for children approaching financial independence, including ISAs, Junior SIPPs, university costs and future house deposits. Finally, they look at saving and investing alongside the NHS Pension, including using a Stocks and Shares ISA, SIPP contributions and higher-rate tax relief. A practical UK personal finance discussion covering pensions, retirement planning, investing, student loans and long-term wealth building. Shownotes: https://meaningfulmoney.tv/QA59  07:17  Question 1 Hi guys, Financial infrastructure and policy in the UK is built around to support (and likely encourage/enforce) the "standard" life of consistently working for 40 years and then stopping altogether. State and private pensions accessible around age 60, Lifetime ISAS, compounding growth of stocks etc. For various reasons, my wife and I (both 32) don't want to do this. We are in the fortunate position where we can take months or years off at a time and plan to do this several times throughout our lives. We know this means our earning potential and growth will be lower and that we may not end up with as large a pension as we could have. But we may also end up having some sort of income until we're much older. Question: what if anything can people do with today's accounts/tax advantages/schemes to enable this type of lifestyle? Hypothetical question: what type of infrastructure could the government introduce to enable this? How about a "pension" you can take at any time up to some cap per year and only for X years in a row? Given fewer jobs now require physical use of our bodies (and hence 60 may no longer be a necessary stopping point), could we see more people "working" off and on until 70 or 80? Tom   15:36  Question 2 Hi Pete and Roger First of all, thank you for the valuable conversations you bring to listeners. I'm a 32-year-old with a strong interest in personal finance and investing, and I would describe myself as financially literate and proactive in managing my own money. I currently feel I've been underestimating my potential and would like to pivot into financial services. I'm considering self-funding qualifications such as the LP2 (Financial Services – General Route) as a starting point, followed by the RQF Level 4 Diploma in Financial Planning. Do you think starting this pathway at 32 is realistic, or have I left it too late to successfully transition into the industry? Thanks, Darren. G   19:36 Question 3 Hello Pete and Roger, Firstly, I very much enjoy listening to your podcast whilst doing my weekly walks. I currently live in Australia and will be returning to the UK in 6 months to live near my family and will be turning 55 at the same time. My question is: I have a Defined Contribution pension, valued at 70K with a GAR. I am legally required to get IFA before I can drawdown, UFPLS, lump sum etc. There appears to be an exception to this mandatory requirement if I take an annuity. Is this correct? If it is, would this also apply to a fixed term annuity? Secondly, what options do I have to access my pension if no financial advisor is keen to take me on as a client and sign the 'advice taken' form that is required by my pension provider. My provider (Royal London) has said that the advice doesn't have to be positive or negative to what I want to do, I just have to show that I at least went through the procedure. Thanks for your help. Regards Brett   27:08 Question 4 Dear Pete and Rog, Thank you so much for the wealth of wisdom you share with us all - it has helped my family towards a more secure and planned future.  I'm not an expert but as the future recipient of a few small DB pensions I have a question. You often infer Defined Benefit pensions are "solid gold", implying they should be preserved at all costs. I want to challenge your strong preference to avoid taking the 25% tax free cash (Pension Commencement Lump Sum (PCLS)). Isn't it "dangerous" to not clarify the commutation rate more explicitly?  On one hand, with a poor commutation rate isn't the member effectively "selling" inflation-linked, guaranteed income far too cheaply? On the other, with an attractive commutation, by taking the 25% tax-free cash "off the table," a member can: 1. Eliminate mortality risk: If they die early, that cash stays with the family; the DB income disappears. 2. Manage Tax Drag: Using the PCLS to bridge to state pension age can keep a retiree in the basic rate band rather than being pushed into higher rates by a full DB payout. 3. Seek Outperformance: While DB is index-linked, a well-allocated ISA can historically outperform inflation over the long term. Why do you treat the PCLS as a "loss" of income rather than a strategic "de-risking" of the pension asset? Thanks for clarifying - because I think I must be missing something. Gareth   31:55 Question 5 Hi Pete and Roger, I started listening to the podcast when I began Couch to 5K, and it's been really helpful. It also makes me feel quite virtuous, like I'm improving both my health and finances at the same time! I'd value your thoughts on managing money for a child who is approaching financial independence. I'm the trustee for my 16-year-old daughter, who inherited directly from a relative. She has £140k in total, with 42% in cash savings, 46% in investments (mainly low cost global tracker) and 12% in a junior SIPP (also in global trackers). I'm moving as much as possible into ISA wrappers annually. I don't currently plan to add further to the SIPP. She is aware that there is a "good amount" of money saved for her but not actual figures yet and it is referred to as money for a house deposit. I plan to start involving her more directly in managing it from age 17, although we already talk regularly about money and financial habits. She's academic and likely to go to university although also considering degree apprenticeships. She wants a high paying career but has no idea what career yet! A few things I'd really value your perspective on: How should I think about asset allocation? I'm not risk averse and feel like there's too much in cash but mindful that she will be in control in 2 years and may want to use some of the money in the short term, e.g. for university, car, travelling etc. Would you lean towards encouraging her to fund university costs rather than taking out a student loan if she goes, given that under the new plan around 80% are expected to repay their loans in full? At least there would be less available to fritter away or spend on a red Lamborghini! Or keep it invested and position it more clearly as a future house deposit? And finally I have an 11-year-old in the same position. Given the longer time horizon, would you do anything different now in terms of structure, investment approach, or how and when to involve them? Thanks so much — I'd really appreciate your thoughts. Beth   42:51  Question 6 Hi both, hope you're well. I am 28 , working full time in the NHS. My partner and I bought our first home just before Christmas.  I have an emergency fund in an easy access account as well as putting 10% of my salary into a S&S ISA each month which I plan to use to bridge the gap between retirement and access to my NHS Pension. I also recently moved into the 40% tax bracket and so opened a SIPP which I put another 5% of my salary into each month. Any other savings go into high yield interest accounts/ISAs.  I just wanted to ask, is there anything else I should be doing with my money or is it simply a case of keep at it now?  Thanks a lot, Joe  

Send us Fan MailShefali got hate mail.Not a snarky comment on a post. Emails. From other people who work with postpartum runners, coming at her over a single number in a consensus paper.The number was three. As in, after a minimum three week period of rest and recovery, some people might be ready to start doing some things. Drills. Not a 5K. Not a race. Some things.And she wasn't even giving her opinion. She surveyed clinicians and exercise professionals, coded what they said, and reported it back. That is the entire job of a Delphi.I'm bringing this one back for the Summer Rewind because there are so many new moms getting back to running right now, and the six week clearance conversation has not moved an inch. It is still the default. It is still a date instead of a plan. And I promise you it is still costing women the strength they walked in with.

What if bad credit isn't the real problem—but a symptom of not understanding how money, credit, leverage, and banking relationships actually work?Haitian CEO joins Ash Cash inside the vault for a wealth-building masterclass on how everyday people can use credit strategically, build relationships with banks, access business funding, acquire cash-flowing assets, and eventually move from relying on personal credit to letting the business stand on its own.After earning a master's degree and making $39,000 a year, he discovered mentorship, business funding, and the power of leveraging the bank's money. Since then, he says he has helped everyday people secure more than $100 million in funding while building Bella Sloan Enterprises and Bella Sloan Academy.In this episode, Haitian CEO breaks down credit scores, banking relationships, credit card stacking, CDFI and SBA lending, business acquisitions, and why getting funding is only the beginning.The real goal? Cash flow.He shares how he used leverage to purchase real estate, how a Cleveland duplex helped him replace part of his job income, and why buying existing businesses from retiring owners could create major opportunities for the next generation of entrepreneurs.The conversation also dives into mentorship, delegation, AI, systems, and legacy. Haitian CEO explains how hiring the right operator helped him reach his first million-dollar year, how one mentee grew to $40 million in assets, and the financial blueprint he wants to pass down to his daughters and grandchildren.This episode is bigger than credit.It's about learning the rules, creating leverage, buying assets, building cash flow, and having the discipline to execute.Connect with Haitian CEO: Instagram: @haitian_ceo YouTube: Bella Sloan EnterprisesConnect with Inside the Vault: Instagram: @insidethevault InsideTheVaultShow.comHosted by Ash Cash: Instagram: @iamashcash IAmAshCash.comABUNDANCE IS YOUR BIRTHRIGHT.Join Ash Cash and a community focused on building wealth, increasing income, strengthening your mindset, and creating a more abundant life:TheAbundanceCommunity.comEPISODE TIMESTAMPS00:00 – Cash flow is king 00:59 – Ash Cash book CTA 02:00 – Welcome to Inside the Vault 03:44 – Meet Haitian CEO 05:10 – From a $39K salary to the funding business 06:23 – Discovering $50K in business funding 08:33 – Using leverage to fund your dreams 09:20 – When the business becomes the asset 10:06 – Credit scores & banking relationships 10:23 – The strategy behind $50K–$100K in funding 11:03 – Credit card stacking explained 11:28 – Fix your credit before seeking funding 11:44 – Using AI to review your credit report 13:26 – Credit specialists vs. AI 14:31 – Build bank relationships while repairing credit 15:08 – Which credit bureaus banks pull 15:56 – Moving beyond personal guarantees 16:32 – Buying businesses instead of starting one 16:56 – The baby boomer business wealth transfer 17:52 – Using SBA financing to purchase cash flow 18:27 – Improve the business with AI, then flip it 19:09 – “This is a masterclass on how to build wealth” 20:04 – Your 9-to-5 can be your first business partner 21:48 – Funding is the vehicle; cash flow is the goal 23:04 – “Cash is not king.

Special Guest: Teaira Abston Welcome to Podcast Profits Unleashed, the show that helps coaches, consultants, experts, and entrepreneurs build authority, create meaningful visibility, and turn conversations into clients. I'm your host, Karen Roberts, and in this episode I'm joined by Teaira Abston, a branding and marketing strategist who helps health and wellness businesses attract premium clients and increase revenue through strategic branding, high-converting websites, and marketing. Because you can be brilliant at what you do… and still have a brand that makes people underestimate you. Before someone books a call or buys, they're already asking: Do I trust this person? Do they understand me? Are they credible? Are they worth the investment? And your brand is helping them answer those questions.

You're booked solid. All the creative projects you wanted. All the clients saying yes. Your portfolio is overflowing. But you're exhausted. Overworked. The money isn't matching the hustle. And you're wondering if building a bigger creative business means becoming a manager of people you don't want to manage. In this episode of The Expert Edge, I sit down with Laura Higgins, who went from struggling with pricing and positioning to building a multi-seven-figure creative business. More importantly, she did it without losing the freedom, fun, or creativity that makes the work worth doing. Here's what most creatives don't realize: being good at your craft isn't enough. A photographer can take stunning photos. A designer can create beautiful work. An agency owner can deliver incredible results. But when it comes to pricing, selling, marketing, and building systems? Most creatives freeze. We talk about how Laura got the "niche slap" early on, shifted her entire positioning, and built a tiered system that serves creatives at every stage-from beginners to six-figure earners making $150K/month. What you'll learn: → Get the niche slap - Why serving everyone means helping no one (and how narrowing down changes everything) → Solve for what they don't want - Why negative positioning attracts better clients than positive promises → Build a tiered approach - How to serve different avatars at different revenue stages with different offers → Promise identity, not income - Why shifting from "make $30K/month" to "become this version of yourself" keeps clients longer → The creative business problem - Why photographers, designers, and agencies stay booked but broke → How to position yourself as the expert in the creative space → The benchmark that works (and why it matters for your pricing) Real insights from the episode: Laura's journey from starting a creative business at 23 with no idea how to sell The moment Colin told her "you're serving too many people" (the niche slap) How she started with a $9 product (Fully Booked) to filter for the right people Why her original promise of "$5K to $30K/month" had people leaving when they hit $30K How shifting to a $10K/month benchmark changed her entire business The difference between marketing to income vs identity Why some clients want $30K/month with 20 hours of work, others want $150K/month with a small team How creatives lose their creativity when they scale (and how to prevent it) The role of messaging when different people have different goals Why "what they don't want" matters more than "what they do want" Connect with Laura on Instagram @laurahiggins (it's aura, not laura, because she's Australian). DM her, tell her you listened to The Expert Edge.

Curiosity, Clarity, Courage, Confidence — the four phases every high-achieving woman moves through on her way back to herself, and why they only work in that order.This is episode four in the Back to School of Midlife series, and it's one that Laurie purposely saved. Not because it's the least important — because it's one of the most important, and if she'd led with it, you would have tuned out.Here's the setup: most of Laurie's clients arrive having already done the physical work of midlife. Hormones optimized. Sleep dialed in. Alcohol cut back. Steps logged, protein hit, strength training on the calendar. They're doing everything right. And they still don't feel like themselves.That's where the Four C's come in — the actual transformational arc underneath every coaching relationship Laurie has, whether her clients realize they're moving through it or not. And one thing she definitely wants to correct: Confidence does not come before Courage. It's the other way around, and getting that order backwards is exactly what keeps so many capable women stuck.What we cover:Why Laurie deliberately waited until episode four to introduce the Four C's, even though it's the "30,000-foot view" of everything she doesThe exact moment most of her clients hit: feeling good physically, but still not feeling like themselvesWhy optimizing your health further isn't the fix — and how that instinct keeps women in a burnout loopThe four phases, in order: Curiosity, Clarity, Courage, ConfidenceWhy confidence does NOT come first — and what actually produces it (hint: it's the action itself)What Curiosity feels like: the big questions most women have never once asked themselves — What's next for me? What's my legacy? Who am I in this season?How every core identity — daughter, mother, wife, career woman — is shifting at the same time in midlife, and why that's what makes the disorientation so intenseWhy "what don't you want" is often an easier, more honest starting point than "what do you want"Why Laurie thinks the "what do you want" question really is that simple — just not easyWhere the word "Courage" actually comes from (it's not what you think), and what that means for the decision you're sitting withLaurie's own "calculated risk" stories: training for her first marathon having never run more than a 5K, hiking 15 laps of a mountain in 36 hours to match Everest's elevation gain, and leaving her law partnership in the middle of a recessionWhy Courage is a full-body "yes" in your heart, not certainty about how things will turn outWhat Confidence is actually for: staying the course once Courage gets you movingWhy you're not going to magically find more time in your schedule — and what has to come off it insteadThe pushback you should expect once you start changing, and why it usually comes from the people who love you mostThis week's homework: figuring out — honestly — which of the four C's you're actually in right nowQuotable moments"Confidence doesn't come first. Confidence actually comes from taking the action.""Courage means you're willing to take the first step in the direction of the life you want to live, not because you know it's going to work out, but because it means so much to you.""You can have everything you ever thought you ever wanted and still feel like there's something missing.""It starts and ends with: what do you want? Just because it's simple, though, doesn't mean it's easy.""Courage actually comes from the Latin word cor, meaning heart.""Your biggest cheerleaders are the ones who are gonna throw up the most walls because they like the old you.""People don't chase dreams to get what they already have.""We need to have the Confidence to continue on the path that our Courage put us on."Laurie's ask for this episode Figure out which of the four C's you're actually in right now — Curiosity, Clarity, Courage, or Confidence — and be honest about it, not aspirational. Then ask yourself how you feel about that, and what you're going to do about it.→ Send her an email→ DM on InstagramResources + links mentionedEpisode 1: Overview of the School of Midlife and the coaching Laurie providesEpisode 2: The BEST LIFE™ FrameworkEpisode 3: Learn, Earn, Yearn — the three phases of lifeJOIN MY MAILING LISTCONNECT WITH LAURIE

Hi, it's Neil Cowmeadow here with episode 441 of The Tutor Podcast, the Monday morning shot of uncommon sense for anyone who wants start, grow and love their own tutoring, teaching and coaching business – the same way I love mine.  I'm here to share ideas that have helped me in my business journey as a teacher, entrepreneur, investor and mentor in  a no-nonsense, No BS kind of way... in the hope that it helps you have as much fun at work and in life as I do. And – of course - I'm listening: so if you have any ideas that you think might be worth exploring on the show – get in touch info@neilcowmeadow.com or on X where I am @TutorPodcast, and maybe you can help me to learn something new, something better? Because I'm smart enough to realise that I don't have all the answers – nobody does - and if I rely on my own tiny, pea-sized brain to solve all of my problems…. Well..... If you're good with that, let's crack on...  Ever come home from the gym or a long run and just flopped? Flumped down on the sofa, and just let every part of your body breathe out? After all your exertions, the sofa just cradles you there – soothing and supportive – like finding yourself in the palm of some great and benevolent hand... It's a safe place where you can let go of all the tension in those worked-up muscles, lean back and feel the comfort of the soft cushions holding you up... We do this with our bodies – instinctively we understand that our bodies need a moment or six to let the stress hormones and the chemistry of effort leave our system, then begin the slow process of recovery and rebuilding our body's energy reserves so that we are prepared and ready to meet the next challenge. Everybody knows that – on a physical level - we will need to recover, restore, and come back a little stronger after the hard work. But I wonder how many of us treat our brains the same way? After a day of hard thinking – crunching numbers, working with challenging clients, or just handling our own internal nonsense – how do we come down from those high stress, high energy-consuming activities? For some it's time to collapse in front of the TV and veg-out. For others it's meeting friends to talk over life, the universe and everything, for some it's going home to the family and all of the competing claims on their time and attention: playing with the kids, helping with homework, cooking dinner, giving their spouse or partner some attention: hey, they may even make it to the gym or crash out 5K in the park... the list goes on and on.  But here's the thing: all of those things matter – they all count – but they are all active and demanding of the brain and its ability to process complex incoming information: no wonder a great many people are mentally frazzled most of the time – for their brains, the work never stops. Maybe you've experienced this yourself or know someone who lives this every day of their lives? I know lots of folks who are like that! You could say that that's how modern life is: full-on, 24/7 always on the go, always busy doing something... and it is true for a lot of people. But not everyone... I've met some people who – you would think – had completely batshit crazy busy lives: artists, business people, writers, and – of course – musicians. Some of them were living batshit crazy 24/7 lives that never slowed down... but not all of them. There are a handful of those people who were strangely serene, calm, and unflustered by almost anything... Oddballs, in the main. When I asked them to give me three tips about what they did to handle stress and stay relaxed they freely shared their methods. What surprised me was how similar their answers were: Manage your time ruthlessly – we've done previous episodes on this subject Write stuff down – likewise, I've covered this on the show before Eliminate distractions – get away from the TV and your phone if you want to get things done Go into the silence – the surprising one for me was how many of them had rituals built into their day where they deliberately went into a silent room and did NOTHING AT ALL. No TV, no phone, no distracting stuff littering up the place, no notes, no conversations: just silence. One of them said he like to “wrap himself up in the comforting warmth of his silent room”. He said it was where his mind could breathe out... I get it. When your brain has no new information coming at it (much of which is processed as a potential threat), it begins to stand-down from its alert state... Stress chemicals produced under stress stop being produced to the same extent, and eventually stop altogether, so no nasty hormones get dumped into your bloodstream and organs... Your hearrate and breathing rate begin to slow... With attention, muscles relax... And – at the top of all this – your brain breathes out... If your body benefits from a post-workout sofa, wouldn't it make sense to give your brain its own “sofa” to help it to relax and begin recovering after a heavy day's thinking? This might be 5 minutes of sitting in the car on the driveway before entering your home... no  phone, no radio or in-car entertainment, no nagging voice from the car's internal systems to break the silence – or at least the quiet, since cars are acoustically treated to make the cabin feel safe and quiet... Or have a place in your home where – for just five minutes – there is silence in which the tired mind can stretch out a little bit and sigh... Maybe this is why reading on the loo is such a cliché: you get five minutes of privacy and quiets, since even the most stupid of people understand that you're busy and should be left alone for while. And since most bathrooms don't have a TV, there is no chatter to occupy the mind as it rests... Maybe that 50” TV doesn't need to be on all day, every day? Give your brain a break and build silence into your life: your brain will thank you for it. Start small – a few minutes to begin with – then extend the time in silence as you become more comfortable with silence itself... Many people are freaked-out when everything is quiet – it is unfamiliar to them and makes them tense... their minds stay busy and distracted... that's ok – for them.  Your job is to begin to go into the silence and just listen... observe, accept, let go... Other people and their special brand of crazy will still be there, the news will still be on repeat cycle, the radio will still be ready to shower you with calls from bigots and dullards, lying politicians and manufactured celebrity gossip... For now, let's have a quiet five minutes, eh? And when you've done that. I'd love to hear from you. Drop me an email to info@neilcowmeadow.com and  if you have any comments, questions or problems,  get in touch  - again it's info@neilcowmeadow.com    or on X where I am @The Tutor Podcast Let's leave it there for today – I hope this show has got you thinking and has been some help to you and that you'll join me next time on The Tutor Podcast for more No-BS tips and ideas of how to Start, Grow and Love YOUR Tutoring Business – just like I love mine. Till then, remember that your time is precious, your life is largely what you make it, so always make it good. Be excellent to yourselves - stay healthy, stay useful, and Have a Fabulous Day!

Noah Droddy is back on the podcast! Noah is a 2:09 marathoner, retired professional runner, new dad, co-host of D3 Glory Days, and now works for Blistering Pace, where I'm lucky enough to work with him at a couple of their races each year. In this episode, we talk a lot about the transition from professional running to building a career outside of the sport. Noah opens up about realizing he was ready to walk away from professional running, the difficult period that followed, the rejection and uncertainty of his job search, and how he ultimately landed at Blistering Pace. We also talk about becoming a new dad, supporting his wife Emma as she trains for the Chicago Marathon, his changing relationship with running, some of the highs of his professional career, D3 Glory Days, and why he wants other athletes navigating this transition to know they don't have to do it alone. I think this conversation is relatable far beyond professional running. Transitions are hard, and Noah speaks so openly about identity, purpose, rejection, and figuring out what comes next.

Welcome to this special joint episode of the Hangar Z Podcast and the Valor Flight Crew Podcast, brought to you by HeliCASTS, in partnership with Valor Plus.In this special episode, Jon Gray of Hangar Z and Blake Shrider and Mike Fadale of the Valor Flight Crew, preview the 2026 ECHO Public Safety Aviation Conference.High-quality public safety aviation training doesn't need a massive price tag. The 2026 ECHO Public Safety Aviation Conference is heading to Philadelphia Sept. 20 to 23 at the Sheraton Downtown.ECHO covers the full mission spectrum law enforcement aviation, helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS), search-and-rescue, and aerial firefighting.This year features over 50 breakout sessions, hands-on workshops like underwater egress and cadaver labs, and a dedicated 16-hour Airborne Tactical Solutions course jointly taught by Clay Lacey and Jack Schonely for aircrews and ground teams.It's practical, high-impact training—built by operators, for operators, and delivered at a price point agencies can support.This conversation breaks down why ECHO stands apart: Operator-built training, real-world relevance, and a rare chance to learn across every mission set under one roof. From law enforcement aviation and search-and-rescue to aerial firefighting, EMS, and tactical operations, ECHO is designed for crews who want practical skills they can use back home.You'll discover:What makes the Clay Lacey and Jack Shonely airborne tactical solutions course such a can't-miss opportunity;How the breakout sessions expand into law enforcement, SAR, radio ops, human performance, leadership, and more;Why the Future Flight Crew and Future Flight Leaders programs are becoming a pipeline for the next generation of aviation professionals; andHow FAST and the Safety Team are changing the way the industry supports crew wellness, resilience, and operational safety.The conversation also covers the social side of ECHO in Philadelphia, including the welcome party, the 5K fundraiser, the down-for-weather bash, and why the city itself is worth an extra day or two. If you've never been to Philly, you'll get a few solid reasons to plan for more than conference hours—and maybe a cheesesteak or two.Just as important, this episode makes the stakes clear: Public safety aviation is evolving fast, leadership gaps are real, and the industry needs better training, better mentorship, and better ways to take care of its people. ECHO is one of the few places where all of that comes together in a single week.Essential listening if you're deciding whether to attend, bringing your team, or just want a clear picture of why so many crews call ECHO their favorite conference of the year.Thank you to our sponsors CNC Technologies, Dallas Avionics and Metro Aviation.

With race weekend finally here, The Final Stretch comes to a close from Sydney, Australia, just two days before the TCS Sydney Marathon. At this point, there is no more fitness to build, no more missed workouts to chase, and no more cramming left to do, which means readiness has officially stopped being a question and become a decision. We talk about the last things we can still control, from hydration, nutrition, rest, and race-week logistics to making sure a Saturday 5K does not become an accidental dress rehearsal for disaster. We also tackle jet lag, unpredictable weather, race-day nerves, and why nothing new belongs anywhere near our shoes, fuel, clothing, or strategy this late in the game. With A, B, and C goals still in play, we look at why solving the mile we are actually in matters far more than worrying about mile 22 before the gun even fires. There is also a bigger reminder woven through this finale: whether we are standing at a World Marathon Major or a neighborhood 5K, getting to a start line is something worth appreciating rather than taking for granted. Sydney was never part of the original plan, but one unexpected lottery acceptance turned it into another chapter in a journey that has already stretched through Chicago, New York, Boston, Berlin, and Tokyo. The work is finished, the bags are packed, and now there is only one thing left to do: trust what we built, enjoy where we are, and go run the race.

Tom Gozney hit rock bottom with addiction at 21 and spent nearly a year in a South African rehab facility. What saved him back home wasn't a business plan - it was a brick oven he dug into his garden, because cooking pizza for his friends was the only way he could socialise without alcohol at the centre of it. He noticed something: after a few weeks, people stopped bringing beer and started bringing toppings. That shift in behaviour became the entire thesis of the brand. Fifteen years later, Gozney is valued at over $100 million, did $8.5 million in the first four hours of its Dome launch, and forged the portable pizza oven category from scratch. In this interview, Tom breaks down why he redesigned a fully tooled product weeks before shipping after watching a Steve Jobs documentary, how a synchronised Instagram launch with 30 influencers generated 27,000 signups, and the imposter syndrome that made him underprice his own ovens for years. What you'll learn in this interview: • Why he says he's selling a shift in human behaviour, not hardware or pizza • How he got his first oven sale by leaflet-dropping a restaurant with genuinely terrible branding • The £5K loan from his mum that funded the first fibreglass mould and website • Why he scrapped a fully tooled steel design weeks before shipping - and retooled it in silicone in a month • The Richard Branson exchange that put an oven on Necker Island and fuelled the Rockbox launch • The synchronised 30-influencer Instagram drop that drove 27,000 signups before a single unit shipped • How the Dome launch did $8.5M in four hours, crashed the site, and triggered death threats over a pizza oven • Why going straight to big factories doesn't work before you've proven volume - and how middlemen killed his early margins • How he rebuilt his entire supply chain by recruiting a board and COO who'd done it in outdoor grilling • Why imposter syndrome made him underprice for years - and what finally gave him conviction to charge premium If you're building a physical product brand, wrestling with manufacturing and margins you don't yet understand, or scared to price for the value you've actually built, this conversation will fundamentally change how you think about brand, product obsession, and building something bigger than yourself.

Dean Karnazes has done things most runners can barely picture, but the lesson he brings to our mic is refreshingly simple: you do not have to go fast, you just have to go. We catch up with Dean on a Greece running tour built around the history of Marathon and a heartfelt tribute to Jeff Galloway, then dig into what endurance really demands when the miles stop being fun and start becoming a choice you make over and over again.We also get practical for the runDisney crowd with training timelines for Wine and Dine and Marathon Weekend, plus the real talk that comes with late-summer running: humidity, dew point, and how to stay consistent when motivation fades. Dean calls heat “poor man's altitude,” and we unpack what that means for training, racing, and staying safe. You will also hear specific strategies that translate to any goal, from a first 5K to a first Dopey, including how to embrace discomfort, train to your personality, and recover in ways that keep you running for years.On top of that, we react to the newly released Wine and Dine medals, share meetup and community updates, and spotlight runners chasing big dreams, including Arno Tessers' plan to run all nine World Marathon Majors in one year while filming a documentary. If you want motivation that is not fluffy, plus Run Disney planning you can actually use, this one delivers.Subscribe for more runDisney training help, share this with a running friend, and leave a review if the episode helps you stay consistent.

unning has a way of meeting us exactly where we are—even when we feel completely broken. On this week's episode of Your Story, Your Why, host Letty Lundquist sits down with close friend and World Marathon Majors finisher Patti Shawber.After losing a decade of her life to severe drug addiction through her 30s and early 40s, Patti woke up one day exhausted and ready for change. After achieving sobriety, she stepped onto a Planet Fitness treadmill in her mid-40s, walking at 4.0 mph for 45 minutes to complete her very first 5K distance. What started as a way to reclaim her health evolved into a global running journey that took her across the world to earn her Six Star World Marathon Majors Medal before turning 60.Patti opens up about channeling the intense energy of addiction into endurance sports, navigating fear and imposter syndrome, balancing competitive goals with aging, and why she holds onto the memory of her lowest moments so she never has to go back.

After realizing the customer acquisition cost with Apple Search Ads and Meta Ads was too high to scale his app, Michael Butler looked for a better acquisition model. In the process, he discovered an opportunity to solve an overlooked growth marketing problem: no reliable way to track app transactions back to the affiliates or influencers driving them. In this episode, the Insert Affiliate founder explains how app marketers can turn creator partnerships into a measurable acquisition channel using attribution links, referral codes, and real-time transaction tracking. Michael also shares why engaged micro-influencers can outperform larger creators, how to structure revenue share, and why affiliate marketing is becoming more compelling as traditional user acquisition costs continue to rise. Questions Michael Butler answered in this episode: What is affiliate marketing, and how does it work specifically for mobile apps? How can app marketers attribute transactions and revenue back to individual affiliates and creators? What problem led Michael to build Insert Affiliate? Why has affiliate marketing historically been underused compared with traditional paid UA? What does a simple affiliate marketing program look like for an app launching one for the first time? Which types of apps and verticals tend to perform best with affiliate marketing? What does “optionality” in affiliate attribution mean, and why does it matter? Is it better to recruit hundreds of affiliates or focus on a smaller group of highly engaged creators? Should app marketers compensate creators with flat fees, recurring revenue share, or a combination of both? How much commission should an app offer its affiliates, and should that commission be based on installs or sales?

If you bring them on but don't give them training or show them your product, they're going to be a lot less effective.” Mentioned in this Episode: Michael Butler's LinkedIn Michael's Calendly Insert Affiliate

Running is one of the most accessible forms of exercise, offering benefits that extend far beyond cardiovascular fitness. In this episode of Health Matters, host Courtney Allison speaks with Dr. Morgan Busko, a sports medicine physician at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia and a competitive triathlete, about the physical and mental rewards of running. Dr. Busko explains why strength training is a critical foundation for runners and discusses how exercises that target the core and gluteal muscles can improve stability and help prevent injuries. She also breaks down the differences between dynamic warmups and static stretching, explaining how proper preparation can support healthier training. The conversation covers practical strategies for runners at every level, from walk-run programs for beginners to training plans for race day. Dr. Busko shares advice on gradually increasing mileage, building endurance safely, and avoiding common training mistakes that can lead to injury. Finally, she discusses the important roles sleep, nutrition, hydration, and recovery play in athletic performance, debunks the myth that running causes arthritis, and offers encouragement for anyone looking to start or return to running. Chapters 00:00 – Why Running Is Good for Body and Mind The physical and mental health benefits of running and why runners keep coming back 03:00 – Getting Started and Building Strength How to return to running after a break, why strength training matters, and exercises that help prevent injuries 06:20 – Training Smarter and Avoiding Injury Dynamic warmups, walk-run programs, race preparation, and common training mistakes 10:00 – Recovery, Fueling, and Running for the Long Term Sleep, nutrition, hydration, injury warning signs, and the myth that running causes arthritis – and tips to enjoy the sport Key Topics Covered Running Running for beginners Sports medicine Running and mental health Cardiovascular health Strength training for runners Injury prevention Core strength Glute strength Dynamic warmups Static stretching Race training Marathon training 5K training Walk-run method Running recovery Sleep and athletic performance Sports nutrition Hydration for runners Energy gels Running motivation Running injuries Arthritis and running Sports performance Healthy exercise habits Key Takeaway Running can improve cardiovascular health, strengthen the body, reduce stress, and support overall well-being, but success starts with a thoughtful approach. Building strength, progressing gradually, prioritizing recovery, and listening to your body can help prevent injuries and make running a sustainable, rewarding part of a healthy lifestyle. Doctor Bio Morgan Busko, MD is a sports medicine physician at NewYork-Presbyterian and Columbia specializing in the non-operative treatment of chronic and acute musculoskeletal injuries and conditions in adult and pediatric patients. She has a particular interest in endurance athletes, running and overuse injuries, and injury prevention. After completing a residency in Internal Medicine at New York University, where she also received her Medical Degree, Dr. Busko completed a Sports Medicine Fellowship at Wake Forest University. She received her B.S. in Biological Anthropology and Anatomy at Duke University, where she competed in Cross-Country and Track & Field. Dr. Busko is an active endurance athlete who has competed in the Hawaii Ironman World Championship five times, finishing amongst the top triathletes in the world. She finds great reward in helping athletes return to sport safely while facilitating an athlete's ability to reach their optimal athletic performance.

In this first part they break down: • Why the current energy crisis is already bigger than any in recorded history • How oil prices are being deliberately suppressed while diesel has nearly doubled • The explosive sulfur shortage that is crushing fertilizer production and copper mining • The cascading shortages of helium, aluminum, and other critical resources • How the 1971 closing of the gold window set the stage for today's debt and bubble nightmare • The coming wealth transfer and why those under 40 are being left behind • Why they both see a major crisis window opening in October 2026 This is not theory. The shortages are already here. The interventions are already failing. And the next phase will be unlike anything we've seen. Watch the entire conversation. Share it. And get prepared.

Special Guest: T. Christian Helms, Founder & Creative Director of Helms Workshop Welcome to Podcast Profits Unleashed, the show that helps coaches, consultants, founders, and experts build authority, create meaningful connections, and grow businesses people genuinely trust. I'm your host, Karen Roberts, and in this episode I'm joined by T. Christian Helms, founder and creative director of Helms Workshop, an award-winning branding agency. Christian has spent more than 15 years helping businesses uncover their voice, shape their story, and create stronger relationships with the people they serve. But this conversation goes much deeper than logos, colours, and websites. After an undiagnosed illness forced Christian to step away from his business and rebuild his life, he discovered that many of the principles he used to build brands—purpose, clarity, storytelling, authenticity, and knowing your audience—could also help him rebuild personally.

Chris Chavez, Kyle Merber, and Preet Majithia are back with lots to unpack, including two Diamond Leagues, a half marathon world record, a robot, a Rupp record, and breaking news at the end of the episode.Discussed in this episode:– Yomif Kejelcha, 56:51 half marathon world record, Buenos Aires: Cuts 21 seconds off Jacob Kiplimo's 57:20 from Lisbon in March (note: the Lisbon run hasn't been formally ratified yet either). Kejelcha's splits: 13:45 through 5K, 27:19 through 10K (19 seconds off world record pace), then he turns it on: 13:22 for 10K-to-15K, closes the final kilometer in 2:32.– Silesia men's 1500m — Ethan Strand wins in 3:30, 11th to first: Cole Hocker third (3:31.17, first race since Pre Classic, seven weeks off), Jakob Ingebrigtsen fourth (3:31.19, ten days after winning the European 5K), Phanuel Koech second (3:31.14). Splits: 1:50.4 last 800, 54.3 last lap, 26.4 last 200 (13.2/13.2 for Ethan). Strand ran wide in lane two for much of the race, avoided the traffic that boxed Cole and Jakob, and had a clear line in the final 100.– Jakob Ingebrigtsen's return to the 1500: Ten days since Europeans. Ran to the front from 600 to go, accelerated sharply in 13.7 for that section, closed at a level that wasn't far off Ethan.– World Athletics Seb Coe Super Invites — Budapest 1500 expands to 13: Both Josh Kerr and Jakob Ingebrigtsen confirmed. World Athletics broke their own rule because the matchup was too good to keep from fans.– Silesia women's 1500m — Tsigie Duguma wins in 3:55.06 (world lead, PB): Goes from fifth to first in the final 100 meters with her trademark last-50 burst.– Lausanne 5000m — Americans go 2-3-4: Birhanu Balew wins in 12:57. Parker Wolfe second in 12:58.2, Nico Young third in 12:58.3, Graham Blanks fourth in 12:59.16. Parker Wolfe is the best American 5K runner right now.– Lausanne men's 800m — Wanyonyi wins in 1:42, first DL 800 victory of the year: Marco Arop went through 400 in 49.1 — deliberately trying to set up a world record attempt (Rudisha's split was 49.2).– Lausanne women's 800m — Audrey Werro wins in 1:55.33, Femke Bol second in 1:55.41: Femke sets a new Dutch national record (tying, then surpassing Ellen van Langen's 1992 Olympic final mark).– Silesia women's 100m — Melissa Jefferson-Wooden wins, 10.78: Extends unbeaten 100m streak to 10 races.– Rai Benjamin confirms the double at World Ultimate: Flat 400 on day one, 400H semis and final on days two and three.– The robot: Lightning, a humanoid robot built by smartphone maker Honor, ran 9.32 at the World Humanoid Robot Games in Beijing — breaking Bolt's world record of 9.58.– Galen Rupp, 61:29 at the Antrim Coast Half Marathon: US 40+ record. Ninth place overall. Fastest half he's run in six years.– Looking ahead: Zurich Diamond League Thursday. Diamond League final in Brussels September 4-5. World Ultimate Championships September 11-13.____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSVELOUS: VELOUS makes recovery footwear designed to help runners bounce back faster between sessions.

Send us Fan MailAaron, Trent, and Peaches sit down with Justus, a Security Forces airman out of Moody Air Force Base, to talk about one of the nastiest, coolest, and most under-discussed opportunities in the Air Force: jungle warfare training in Panama.Justus walks through how he ended up in the Air Force, why Security Forces was not what he expected, and how a career field that gets roasted constantly can still open doors if you are fit, positive, prepared, and willing to say yes when opportunities show up.He breaks down life in Security Forces, deploying to Prince Sultan Air Base, supporting the F-22 demo team, competing in Defender Challenge, and eventually getting to the 820th Base Defense Group at Moody — a unit built around defending and opening forward air bases in contested environments.Then the episode gets into the real reason he is here: Panama Jungle School.We talk tents, heat, humidity, malaria meds, mosquitoes, botflies, leaf cutter ants, black palm, trench foot, dysentery, wet boots, wet uniforms, and the harsh reality that the jungle itself is usually the hardest enemy. Justus explains the combat water survival assessment, jungle 5K, knot tests, survival phase, food and water procurement, firecraft, shelter building, rope systems, Z-pulley, one-rope bridge, jungle tactics, and the final Green Mile.The best part? He is not bitter, negative, or trying to scare anyone away. His message is simple: Security Forces has opportunities everywhere, but you have to be ready when they appear. Be in shape. Ask questions. Find the people doing hard things. Say yes.If you are in Security Forces, stop telling yourself the job is just gates and patrol cars. There is more out there.

We then swap our rustic cabin for a lakeside resort, complete with swimming pool, saunas, paddleboards, canoes and plenty of opportunities to embrace Finnish mökki life.Day 10 is all about slowing down: breakfast, paddleboarding, drone flying, swimming, reading, a run through the local trails and, naturally, plenty of sauna time. We also sample some Finnish pastries and enjoy an excellent final dinner at the resort.Finally, we head to Mikkeli before returning the hire car and taking the train to Helsinki Airport. Along the way, I reflect on the entire Finland trip, including Helsinki, Route 62, the Finnish Lakelands, cabin stays, driving in Finland, costs, and why Finland might just be one of the easiest countries in the world to travel around.And, of course, there's a final introduction to the Finnish way of life: mökki life, saunas, nature, no internet and simply switching off.Finnish Lakelands AccommodationKuvalusdream Chalet - https://www.booking.com/hotel/fi/kuvalusdream.en-gb.html?label=affnetcj-11916287_pub-5108952_site-101051909_pname-Go+Travel+Un+Limited_clkid-3495d2d3e2334d21a223e3101-370217_cjevent-5b07c05f9dc911f1823700330a82b838&utm_source=affnetcj&utm_medium=bannerindex&utm_term=index-11916287&utm_campaign=xx&aid=818288&ucfs=1&arphpl=1&checkin=2026-08-22&checkout=2026-08-23&adplat=www-homescreen-recently_viewed_carousel-stays-n_a-n_aSaimaanranta Resort by Anttolanhovi - https://www.booking.com/hotel/fi/lake-saimaa-resort-mikkeli.en-gb.html?label=affnetcj-11916287_pub-5108952_site-101051909_pname-Go+Travel+Un+Limited_clkid-3495d2d3e2334d21a223e3101-370217_cjevent-5b07c05f9dc911f1823700330a82b838&utm_source=affnetcj&utm_medium=bannerindex&utm_term=index-11916287&utm_campaign=xx&aid=818288&ucfs=1&arphpl=1&checkin=2026-08-22&checkout=2026-08-23&adplat=www-homescreen-recently_viewed_carousel-stays-n_a-n_aSupport Winging It Travel PodcastIf you enjoyed this episode:⭐ Leave a 5-star rating or review on your podcast app☕ Support the show at buymeacoffee.com/wingingit

People travel from all over the country to run the Secret City Half Marathon and 5K, a cool-weather race that starts on the waterfront at Melton Hill Lake and takes runners and walkers through the scenic streets of Oak Ridge. ORAU has been a proud sponsor of the Secret City races for many years. In this episode, host Michael Holtz is joined by fellow communications colleague and unofficial race ambassador Bryan Campbell and race director Hannah Fatheree for a conversation about the race, including talk about the course, how to train for a half marathon, the great organization that benefits from race proceeds, and more. BTW, you can still register for the race here: Secret City Half Marathon and 5K

 What the Faithful 5K Proved: It's Time for the Body of Christ to Get in Shape“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus…” — Hebrews 12:1–2The inaugural Faithful 5K is over—but I don't think what happened in Greenbrier was really about running 3.1 miles.We had 165 people register, families running together, churches serving side by side, businesses investing in their community, volunteers pouring themselves out, and virtual racers participating across seven different states.And underneath all of it was something deeper:God is doing something in His Church that has to do with the body—both our physical bodies and the Body of Christ.In this episode, I'm taking a short break from the Menopause in the Light series to reflect on what the Faithful 5K taught me about fitness, faith, community, endurance, and why I believe it's time for the Bride of Christ to get in better shape.We'll talk about:Why people are hungry for something deeper than sets, reps, macros, and aestheticsWhat happened when multiple churches and Christian organizations chose to serve together without needing their own name at the centerWhy the Faithful Cross became one of the most meaningful parts of the morningWhat it means to recognize your body as something through which you live your callingWhy Christian fitness was never supposed to be an isolated pursuitThe unexpected power of an out-and-back race where runners continually encouraged one anotherWhy your body does not have to be impressive to glorify GodWhat this event reminded me about the mission of Faithful FitnessAnd I'll tell you about Mr. Roy.When we first started working together more than five years ago, Roy had battled heart disease, multiple surgeries, pain, and a body that made something as simple as walking my driveway difficult.Saturday, he finished a 5K.He finished last. He refused rides. Men went back onto the course to walk beside him. Police stayed with him. His family waited. Racers who had finished long before stayed at the finish line because they wanted to see him cross it.And when someone asked how he was able to keep going, his answer was basically:Get a good coach. Walk with God. And be stubborn enough not to stop.That'll preach.Because Hebrews doesn't tell us, “Let me run with endurance.” It says:“Let us run with endurance.”Maybe you're crushing it right now.Turn around and encourage somebody behind you. Maybe you're struggling. Keep going. But either way, stop trying to do this fitness thing alone. Your Next Faithful Step -If you want to get honest about where you are and identify your next step, take the Faithful Fitness Assessment. https://faithfulfitness.co/assessmentYou'll assess yourself across the four areas we use in Faithful Fitness:Integrity. Grit. Growth. Awe.The goal isn't a perfect score. It's clarity. And completing the assessment will also reserve your place for our upcoming LIVE Faithful Fitness seminar on September 2nd, where we'll continue this conversation together.Take the Faithful Fitness Assessment and find your next faithful step.

Matt dives into the results of his recent super shoe testing at Griffith University, comparing 12 of the best Chinese racing shoes before putting the leading models up against some of the biggest Western brands. Using laboratory running economy testing at 17 km/h, the results produced some major surprises - including a sub-US$100 Chinese shoe outperforming several of the world's most established super shoes.

Matt breaks down the rankings, the impact price and expectations can have on perceived shoe performance, and just how much difference the right racing shoe could potentially make across a marathon. Matt also looks ahead to the Sydney Marathon, where he plans to attempt the world record for the fastest marathon run in jeans. He discusses the Australian Championships uniform rules, the maths behind breaking the 2:34:45 record, Sydney's challenging course, and why the record may be considerably harder than he initially expected. The episode finishes with Melbourne Marathon goals, the Fat Fox Method for managing body weight around marathon training, strength training, HYROX, longevity, an upcoming 5K attempt, and a preview of several upcoming podcast episodes.

Your easy pace is slower than it was two months ago. Workouts feel harder. You're doing more volume than you've ever done — so shouldn't you be getting faster?A listener wrote in with exactly that question, and it turned into a full episode. Coach TJ and Zoë unpack why feeling slower in a big block is usually the block working, not the block failing — and how to tell the difference when it isn't.The core idea: fitness and performance are not the same thing. Fitness is the physiological capacity you've built. Performance is how much of it you can access on a given day. Every training stimulus produces both a fitness response (slow, cumulative, quiet) and a fatigue response (fast, temporary, extremely loud). Fatigue is louder than fitness — you don't wake up feeling your mitochondrial density, but you absolutely feel Tuesday's workout on top of Sunday's long run.IN THIS EPISODE- Why aerobic base and durability are the two slowest adaptations in endurance sport — and why that means you can't train for just one race- The real sources of training fatigue: glycogen depletion, peripheral muscle fatigue, neuromuscular fatigue, connective tissue loading, and central/autonomic nervous system stress- Why comparing today's run to the same route two years ago on Strava is apples to oranges- Goodhart's Law in training: the moment easy pace becomes the metric you optimize, it stops being a useful proxy for fitness- Progress signals that actually mean something: same pace at lower RPE, same RPE over more vert, better output late in long runs, tolerating back-to-back long runs, and — the most underrated one — recovering faster from the same load- Can training make you less fit? The honest answer, plus why "worse at a 5K while training for a 100" isn't the same as losing fitness- Normal acute fatigue vs. functional overreaching vs. non-functional overreaching vs. actual overtraining syndrome — and why most athletes who think they're overtrained are under-recovered- The red-flag list: elevated easy RPE for days-to-weeks, repeated failure at previously manageable workouts, recovery that doesn't produce a rebound, sleep disruption, mood and motivation changes, recurrent illness, injury creep, menstrual cycle disruption- What TJ's biggest-ever build actually looked like: 15-hour weeks, multiple 100-mile weeks, four (sometimes five) long runs a week, and running slower than he ever hasALSO IN THIS EPISODE — HOT OR NOT- The Leadville 100: no qualifiers to enter, aggressive early cutoffs, and where the competitive incentives are drifting- Changing shoes mid-race (a caveated yes)- Sitting down at aid stations (a hard no, and the physiology behind it)- Listening to podcasts while racing (one yes, one very firm no)BETTER QUESTIONS THAN "AM I GETTING FASTER?"Am I tolerating more training? Am I recovering from it? Am I generally healthy and adequately fueled? Does performance return when fatigue comes down?Don't confuse a temporary inability to express fitness with the absence of it.- Zoë's UltraSignup article on Goodhart's Law: https://trailhead.ultrasignup.com/science-outdoors/data-for-runners/GET IN TOUCHQuestions for a future episode: microcosmcoaching@gmail.comCoaching and community: https://microcosm-coaching.com

Episode 155: Own Your Pace With Intisar Abdul-KaderEvery runner has a moment when someone else sees something in them before they see it in themselves. For Intisar Abdul-Kader, that moment came in a school gym, when a PE teacher who also happened to be her science teacher told her the team needed another runner for the mixed 4x400 relay. She trusted him, she ran, and she never looked back.This episode covers a lot of ground including track in Abu Dhabi and cross country in the woods outside London after her family moved when she was 13. A multiple sclerosis diagnosis three days after her 23rd birthday, and the walk, then the jog, then the 5K, then the marathon that followed. She's now completed all six World Majors, run largely on the strength of ballot entries she didn't even realize were building toward that goal until a stranger told her so in a Chicago hotel lobby.We talk about what it means to run as a hijab-wearing Muslim woman on the world stage, why doing less is so often the harder and more important choice, and how she measures a good run by nothing more complicated than whether she'd go back and do it again (her answer, every time, is yes).CHECK OUT INTISAR@intysarMy book This Is About Running.

If I lost everything today and had to build back to $5K/mo woodworking in 30 days, I wouldn't start with a shop full of tools or a website. I'd start with one product, one customer, and one simple way to get in front of them. Here's exactly how I'd do it.

Today on the podcast, we’ve got Monica DeVreese, one of the co-founders of Rabbit. Rabbit has been some of my favorite running apparel, especially recently, and when we launched the Female Founded series, I really wanted to have Monica on the podcast. Monica has over 20 years of experience in the industry and owns the Santa Barbara Running Company with her husband. She has experience as a runner, consumer, specialty running store owner, and brand builder. She’s run a 2:57 marathon, completed several 100-mile distances, spends a lot of time on the trails, and is also a mother of two. I have to say, I think it’s pretty obvious that Rabbit is owned by two women because, to me at least, you can tell the female body was taken into deep consideration when designing their apparel. I’m loving their new shorts with the roses on them and have been wearing them all the time. They’re so cute. I love getting to know industry leaders and people in this community outside of the pro runners sometimes. I’m excited to share this conversation with Monica and I know you’re going to find her inspiring just like I did. If you’re enjoying the podcast, leave us a quick rating and review and share it with your friends on social media. I would really appreciate it.

The hardest part of marathon training is finding the time to marathon train. It depends who you are, but that excuse often works for me. Life is busy and there are plenty of reasons to be content with an easy 5-mile run before work each day, though do that for six months and you quickly realize that rather than progressing the fitness just continues to erode.Looking for some new motivation to get me out the door this summer, I decided that it was time to do another fall marathon. Nike approached CITIUS MAG and asked whether anyone on our team was interested in running this year's race. I decided it was finally time to do the Chicago Marathon. Having done three marathons before, I have learned that each one comes with a new curriculum of education. Experience is valuable and that's why I am going to be leaning in on arguably the greatest distance runner in American history, Galen Rupp, to help guide my training.In addition to having won two Olympic medals, Rupp also has a Chicago Marathon title to his name. Those are better accolades than mine, which is a 2:26 from the 2025 Houston Marathon. I'm hoping that with Galen in my corner to write workouts and give some regular advice that I can get that down.This is the initial consultation. Galen comes in cold on my training history. We work through a full marathon training philosophy and discuss: consistent mileage as the foundation of marathon training, the role of cross training, long run structure/distance, the two-week training block model, why I need to train my endurance more than my speed, the shoe rotation philosophy, Chicago's pancake flat profile requiring no specific course prep, nutrition and gut training starting now, age and recovery at 35 vs. 40, the mental work of logging each session's goals and reflecting after, and lastly the goal.____________Kyle's Recent Training:May 25 — 5 x 1,000m @ 3:20 (5:22/mile pace)May 30 — 5K in 17:30 (5:38/mile pace)June 2 — 5 x 1,200m @ 3:58 (5:19/mile pace)June 9 — 10 x 800m @ 2:45 (5:32/mile pace)June 13 — 5 x 1 mile @ 5:17June 16 — 3 x 2 miles @ 5:20/mileJune 19 — 8 x 1,000m @ 3:18 (5:19/mile pace)July 1 — 7 x 1,200m @ 3:59 (5:21/mile pace)July 5 — 15 miles easyJuly 7 — 2 x 3 miles @ 5:26/mileJuly 10 — 15 miles, with 6 miles alternating @ 5:53 averageJuly 13 — 10 x 30-second hills + 10 x 300m @ 53 seconds (4:44/mile pace)July 17 — 10 x 1,000m @ 3:17 (5:17/mile pace)July 19 — 16 miles, with 4 x 2 miles @ 5:50/mileJuly 21 — 4 miles @ 5:26/mile, then 3 x 1 mile @ 5:18July 26 — 18 miles, with 8 miles @ 5:40/mileJuly 30 — 5 x (2K @ 5:26 pace // 1K @ 6:19 pace)Aug. 2 — 20 miles @ 6:28/mileAug. 5 — 3 x 3 miles @ 5:21/mileWeekly mileage: A six-week progression from 62 miles to 72.____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSVELOUS: VELOUS makes recovery footwear designed to help runners bounce back faster between sessions.

“Without that disappointment — could he have recalibrated, adapted, and trained as hard ashe did for the record? Sometimes our biggest disappointment becomes our biggest inspiration.”My guest for today's episode is Jose Maresma — clinical exercise physiologist, sport psychologist, and the mental performance coach behind Josh Kerr's mile world record. If you listened to our conversation with Josh or Danny Mackey over the last few weeks, you heard his name come up repeatedly — the whiteboard in Albuquerque, the instructions on race morning, 'what if it was easy.' Jose was the person on the other end of all of it.Jose has been working in performance psychology for 35 years, across Olympic sports, professional athletics, special forces, law enforcement, and corporate leadership. He started in the world of metabolic development, alpine ski racing, the Olympic Training Center, and kept running into the same bottleneck: the mind.His connection to Josh started not with Josh but with Josh's wife, Larimar. She attended a talk Jose gave to scholar-athletes heading into medical school in 2019, came up afterward, and two years later texted him: my boyfriend is preparing for the Olympics — would you be open to working with him? Jose invited Josh to a cold plunge session the next morning. Ice pool, pickaxe, 32 degrees, dark outside. Josh dove in. Five years of work followed.In this conversation Jose walks us through all of it — the hero's journey framework he built their relationship around, why he had Josh write 3:42 on dozens of pages with a blue pen, the 222-second cold plunge and what it was designed to do at a cellular level, what actually happens neurologically when an athlete goes deaf in a race, how the pacers were prepared with their own mental work, and more. He also closes with what any recreational runner heading into a weekend 5K can actually steal from all of this.You can find Jose on Instagram at @josevo2max or visit his website for more information on his work at the link here.____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSVELOUS: VELOUS makes recovery footwear designed to help runners bounce back faster between sessions.

Ralph Sutton takes a solo episode all about how he went from being overweight and unable to do a single pull-up to becoming a dedicated runner logging more than 1,000 miles a year.Ralph breaks down how he started during COVID with Couch to 5K, why starting ridiculously small actually works, and the importance of finding an exercise routine you can stick with. He shares what he's learned about accountability, electrolytes, running shoes, hydration, energy gels, chafing, running in extreme weather, dealing with injuries, and staying consistent when motivation disappears.AJ joins the conversation as Ralph explains why you don't need to be fast to be a runner, why he rotates different pairs of shoes, how he handles long runs, and why listening to your body can be more important than blindly pushing through pain.Plus, Ralph explains why running ten miles through a snowstorm can make you feel like a warrior, how exercise creates positive momentum in the rest of your life, and why the only person you're really competing against is yourself.Follow Ralph Sutton: @IamRalphSuttonWatch more from the goodsugar Podcast and subscribe for new episodes!TEXT us your questions at 718-306-3906!The goodsugar store is the epitome of cool, nestled at 3rd avenue + 69th street!
