AJC Peachtree Road Race 2024 |Safety Tips from Dr. Lekshmi Kumar More than 50,000 runners will hit the streets of Atlanta on July 4th. With a heat advisory in effect, staying hydrated is crucial. Watch for signs of dehydration like dizziness and fatigue. Wear light, breathable attire to combat the heat and protect your skin from the sun.

If you feel unwell, seek immediate medical attention at one of the many support stations available along the route.

To streak or not to streak? I'm talking about running every day…and the same for reading the Bible, on this shorter episode of the “Run The Race” podcast. My run streak right now is at 400+ days, with a previous best of 750+ (more than 2 years). I've read through all of God's Word before, but just trying the daily streak, at 3 weeks now. (3:35) First, I've got a quick recap of what it was like at my first AJC Peachtree Road Race, the largest 10K in the world, alongside tens of thousands of other runners in Atlanta. (5:15) Why run every day and should you do it? The current male and female records are staggering. I give you 6 steps of how to do a run streak, plus who should not be trying to run every day. There are pros and cons to streaking…from motivation and mindset and community…to stress and injuries. (14:15) You can also get discouraged or intimidated when trying to read the Bible regularly. How can you make reading God's Word daily a habit? I've got 6 steps for that too, that includes picking a time, plan, accountability partner. I also talk about the benefits of reading scripture every day, as spiritual nourishment like food. (22:41) And I close this one in prayer.

John Bednarowski calls in from Greensboro to discuss the Kennesaw State men's basketball team's heartbreaking loss to Xavier in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Plus: An Atlanta man who has garnered the nickname “the crawling burglar” was indicted by a Cobb grand jury on 24 counts of burglary and one count of racketeering related to a string of alleged burglaries in Cobb County. Aron Jermaine Major has been detained at the Cobb County Adult Detention Center since his arrest on June 1, 2021, according to jail records. Arrest warrants for the suspect describe a pattern of late-night and early-morning burglaries where the suspect used techniques reminiscent of a heist movie. Major's son, Aron Major Jr., was also arrested on a single count of tampering with evidence the day after his father was arrested. Major Jr. was indicted for tampering with evidence by the same grand jury last week. According to arrest warrants, Major removed or broke windows to crawl into numerous businesses while they were closed, prying open safes, cash drawers and stealing merchandise. Cash, alcohol and cigarettes were the common targets of the suspect. According to the Georgia Department of Corrections, Major was sentenced four times for previous burglaries and other crimes in metro Atlanta dating back to 1992. A group of Cobb County state representatives have agreed to advance legislation de-annexing portions of the new city of Mableton, two representatives said Thursday. State Representatives Terry Cummings David Wilkerson, Michael Smith,Teri Anulewicz, and Doug Stoner all represent parts of the new city of Mableton. Representatives have reached a tentative agreement that some northern parts of the city should be cleaved off, Wilkerson and Anulewicz said. Cummings is expected to sponsor the bill, but didn't respond to requests for comment Thursday. A map of the areas the representatives are proposing to de-annex wasn't available by press time, but Wilkerson described the areas as Cobb voting precincts Birney 02 and Mableton 04, plus “the unincorporated Austell that's up near the East-West Connector.” In last November's cityhood referendum, Birney 02 voted 72% against incorporation, and Mableton 04 voted 73% against. Across the entire Mableton cityhood area, residents voted 53% to 47% in favor of incorporation. While an agreement was reached among representatives, the bill that would enshrine it was still being drafted Thursday. It is expected to be introduced on Monday. In 2016, Brad Smith was an assistant coach at Dalton and got to experience what the environment around Allatoona's football program was like at Cobb EMC/Buccaneer Stadium. The Catamounts were in the midst of a state semifinal run and a 13-1 season, while the Buccaneers, coming off their state championship season, were in the middle of a 6-6 season. Still, the stadium was packed, Allatoona played hard and it had a true home-field advantage. Though Dalton won the game 24-22, the trip to Acworth left a mark on Smith. Fast-forward seven years and Smith had just finished his third season as the head coach at Loganville. After taking over a 3-8 program in 2020, he led the Red Devils to a 9-2 mark last season -- included a team-record 8-0 start -- for the team's first winning season since 2016. That is when the Allatoona job came open after the retirement of founding coach Gary Varner. Varner stepped down following the 2022 season to concentrate on his health. Smith said he understands the challenges of taking over for the man who began the program and who has been the only coach in the program's history, but he draw of what he remembered from that game in 2016 was too big of a pull. Loganville, Smith's alma mater, was his first head-coaching job. He compiled an 18-14 record during his three years there and took the Red Devils to the playoffs twice. He takes over an Allatoona program that went 6-6 a year ago. For now, Smith is caught between schools. He plans on being on campus at Allatoona full-time by the end of the month and will teach physical education. However, he is also trying to make sure he leaves Loganville in the best possible condition. He was doing helmet and uniform inventory this week and getting the equipment prepared for the spring. A Marietta man will serve 10 years behind bars after he was sentenced for charges related to a 2021 armed robbery in a Cobb County mobile home park. 19-year-old Ezra Dangelo Ford pleaded guilty to three felonies — armed robbery, aggravated assault and possession of firearm during the commission of a felony, the Cobb County District Attorney's Office said. Superior Court Judge Jason Marbutt accepted a negotiated plea, sentencing Ford to 10 years in prison, to be followed by five years probation. The robbery occurred on April 12, 2021, when police responded to a call from Lamplighter Village, a mobile home park at the corner of Windy Hill Road and Powder Springs Street. The victim told police that he and Ford had “decided to meet up and hang out,” the DA's office said. When the victim arrived, Ford stepped out of a vehicle and pointed a gun at him. Ford took the victim's backpack filled with personal items and his skateboard, prosecutors said, before leaving the scene. The victim later picked Ford out of a line up, resulting in his arrest. Carlos Rodriguez was sworn in as the new president of the Cobb County Bar Association during its monthly luncheon at Roswell Street Baptist Church on Thursday. Rodriguez said his three daughters overheard a discussion between him and his wife about him being sworn in as president, and one of his daughters asked him “what happened to Joe Biden?” Rodriguez, who also chairs the Cobb County Board of Ethics, thanked the audience for the opportunity to become president, saying how the Cobb brand is strong throughout the state. The Cobb County Bar Association is a social and professional group for local lawyers to celebrate the law profession and engage with the community by sponsoring educational programs, social and charity events. The bar hosts two major fundraising events a year, Sleighbells on the Square 5K and Law Day Classic Golf Tournament, which raises tens of thousands of dollars for the Cobb County Bar Children's Emergency Fund. The fund provides support for Cobb families in need in areas that are often not addressed by traditional charities, assisting with utility bills, clothing, medicine and housing to help local families get back on track. As president, Rodriguez is the figurehead of an organization representing one of the busiest judicial systems in the state, he said. Rodriguez, a Marietta native and 2003 graduate of Marietta High School, received his bachelor's and law degrees from the University of Georgia and is part of the criminal defense attorneys law firm Kilgore and Rodriguez. Rodriquez's law partner, Maddox Kilgore, an Emory grad from the Smyrna area, served as president of the Cobb County Bar Association from 2018 to 2019. The Town Center community is gearing up for its second annual Noonday Shanty 5K and 10K next Saturday along the Noonday Creek Trail in Kennesaw. The Noonday Creek Trail, which is located near the Town Center at Cobb mall, spans seven miles and boasts hidden wetlands, scenic views, public art and bird habitats. Managed by Orion Racing, the Noonday Shanty 5K and 10K is the first USA Track and Field-certified race to take place on the Noonday Creek Trail. The race serves as a qualifier for the AJC Peachtree Road Race and features a mostly flat 5K and 10K course. Both routes wind through the Noonday Creek Trail, Fifth Third Bank Stadium, Cobb International Airport and Aviation Park. The 10K race will kick off at 7:45 a.m. followed by the 5K race which will begin at 8 a.m. After the races conclude, runners can enjoy a live DJ, entertainment and free beer for participants over 21. All participants will receive a free T-shirt and finisher medal. #CobbCounty #Georgia #LocalNews - - - - - The Marietta Daily Journal Podcast is local news for Marietta, Kennesaw, Smyrna, and all of Cobb County.

When we wanted to find some guidance for advising our runners on the best way to return to running after Covid, we turned to the American College of Cardiology Return to Sport after Covid Guidelines, co-authored by our guest, Dr. Jonathan Kim, an Atlanta-base sports cardiologist. While certainly vaccinations have changed the Covid landscape, vaccinated runners continue to struggle with returning to running after symptomatic Covid. Dr. Kim's clear and encouraging advice will provide guidance to anyone who is eager or struggling to return to running after Covid (or any kind of virus). Dr. Kim can be found on Twitter @jonathankimmd. Dr. Kim is an Associate Professor of Medicine and Chief of Sports Cardiology in the Division of Cardiology and Orthopedics at Emory University and additionally holds an adjunct Professorship in the School of Applied Physiology at the Georgia Institute of Technology. He received his Bachelor of Science at Emory and was a Fulbright Scholar before attending Vanderbilt Medical School. He completed his residency in Internal Medicine/Pediatrics at Massachusetts General Hospital and cardiology fellowship at Emory (Dr. Kim was chief fellow at Emory 2013-14). In addition to his clinical role, Dr. Kim conducts NIH-funded sports cardiology research at Emory. He is the Team Cardiologist for the Falcons, Braves, Hawks, Dream, Sports Medicine at Emory and Georgia Tech, and is a member of the NBA Cardiac Advisory Committee, NFL Cardiovascular Task Force, and the American College of Cardiology's Sports and Exercise Council. He is also a consultant for Major League Baseball. He is the Co-Medical Director for the AJC Peachtree Road Race in Atlanta, GA. Join us for our SHAKE-OUT run on Sunday, April 17th at the Boston Common (Brewer Fountain) at 9 am! We will have swag and pre-race tips!

In this episode of the Female Athlete Podcast, I speak to sports cardiologist Dr Jonathan Kim. We start off exploring the new field of sports cardiology, and how it's evolved recently with rising awareness of heart conditions in athletes. Exercise results in adaptations to the heart that are normally beneficial, such as lower resting heart rates and increased cardiac muscle strength, otherwise known as “athlete's heart”, however, as Dr Kim explains, some changes in the heart can pose risks and indicate underlying problems. We discuss cardiac fatigue following strenuous events like a marathon, underlying the importance of taking enough rest to fully recover. It's not just older individuals at risk of heart problems, in fact, even the youngest and fittest athletes can be at risk. Dr Kim outlines causes of heart conditions independent of age and fitness related to genetic and inherited pathways: knowing your family history is the best prevention tool. Cardiac issues can also be acquired and athletes aren't immune! While exercise certainly is medicine, it is not a cure-all or vaccine against disease! This episode covers some of the warning signs of cardiac illness, many of which overlap with the symptoms of REDS: exercise intolerance, increased RPE, decreased performance and motivation, and increased fatigue. Chest pain is not always present! Working with a team of professionals -cardiologists, dietitians and psychologists- is important in understanding the cause of symptoms: REDS, a heart condition, and/or something else. Other more specific signs requiring medical attention include unexplained breathlessness, chest tightness when warming up (even if it goes away during exercise), and lightheadedness/ fainting. We touch on returning to exercise post Covid-19 for both asymptomatic and symptomatic cases, and Dr Kim provides reassurance and comfort debunking the extremely conservative advice that was initially circulating. By resting until asymptomatic for 3 days, before gradually progressing training load, the majority of people can return to their usual activity levels in just a few weeks (disclaimer: every case is different of course).

Early on Oct. 16, 2,000 runners will file onto the cleared fifth runway at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport to relaunch the Mayor's 5K on the 5th Runway. The six-year-old event was canceled last year because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The airport calls it “one of the flattest — and fastest — courses in metro Atlanta.” As an AJC Peachtree Road Race qualifying event, it offers the opportunity for runners to score a good time, which allows them to be placed in an earlier starting wave for the Peachtree and push for a personal best. Kelly Yamanouchi, who covers Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport for the AJC, recently spoke with John Murphy, who works in airside operations and is handling preparations for the event, and longtime runner and frequent flier Mark Davison, who will be running the 5K on the 5th Runway.
The RUNATL Podcast is hosted by Big Peach Running Co. Founder, Mike Cosentino, and Director of Marketing, Dave “D2” Martinez. This week on the RUNATL Podcast we sit down with Dr. Jonathan Kim, Medical Director for the AJC Peachtree Road Race.
Whether or not you have been impacted by COVID, you've certainly felt the stress of the past 15 months and that may have caused you neck or back pain. It is the number one reason people make an appointment to see their primary care physician. Dr. Mohamed Bydon is a Mayo Clinic neurosurgeon and author of Back and Neck Health: Mayo Clinic Guide to Preventing and Correcting Back and Neck Pain. Dr. Bydon outlines different ways to treat back and neck pain, including self-care at home, non surgical interventional approaches and also different types of surgery. A July 4th tradition returns to Atlanta this weekend - July 3 and 4 in the AJC Peachtree Road Race. This year the race will support nine nonprofits as people get their run on. One of those nonprofits is the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. The stress of the pandemic has led to an uptick in calls. Mariana Cruz, a AFSP volunteer and runner talks about some of the warning signs.
There’s still time to register for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution Peachtree Road Race. Atlanta Track Club's Executive Director Rich Kenah discusses the race’s return during the Fourth of July weekend and new measures in place to keep everyone safe during the race. Plus, Lauren Koontz, the president and CEO of the YMCA of Metro Atlanta, talks with Rose about operational changes happening at the South DeKalb Family YMCA and what these changes could mean for the branch's future.
“I don't shy away from the hard stuff anymore. I know I enjoy hard things from a training perspective, [and] like super-challenging races, but that also goes emotionally—I can't expect to be a better person unless I can work through those things as well, so I'm happy to talk about hard subjects.” Hillary Allen is a professional athlete, coach, teacher, and author of the new book, Out and Back: A Runner's Story of Survival Against All Odds. She's a returning guest to the show—be sure to check out her first appearance back on Episode 49 if you haven't already—and she's just one of my favorite people to talk to in general. In this conversation, we talked about her book, which was recently released. She told me about how it came to be, what she's learned from revisiting it recently while she's been recovering from foot surgery, and how writing became a cathartic exercise for her in recent years. We also talked about her stubborn and independent streaks, why asking for help is challenging for her, the importance of cultivating and leaning into your community, and a lot more.

“When I talk to the athletes that I coach, the number one thing that I'm trying to pay attention to throughout the course of our relationship is seeing and understanding how this pursuit of running fits into their life and everything else that they've got going on from family to work to hobbies—and yes, you can have other hobbies besides running—and also, how those things are affecting their pursuit of running because if you have a very demanding job, or you have a very active family, or you have a lot of other hobbies, that is not only going to cut into your training time—and I don't say that in a bad way—but it's another variable that you have to account for that can affect how you're feeling on a given day, how well your workout goes, or if you're mentally fresh to race or not. So I think it's important to understand that mix from both sides.” This week on the podcast I'm answering listener questions in the first Ask Mario Anything episode of 2021. On the other side of the mic for this one is sponsorship director, Chris Douglas, who you'll get to learn a little more about at the beginning of the show. We got some good ones about this summer's Olympics, returning to running postpartum, balancing running and training with the rest of your life, how the podcast and newsletter get made, and more.

“I think I'm somebody where I grew up in a family of many people, a large family—and then also I grew up Morman, and so I grew up around many families that were very large and also my mom did daycare at our home—and so I've always just been around a lot of people and I've always had to be somebody that has found my voice among many people while also being friends with everybody. And it's funny, when I was growing up I always had friends all over the place. I never realized until recently that that continues to be true. I feel like I'm a connector where I love just meeting new people and finding out about new people and then connecting different people with likeminded people, so I definitely think that's probably the core of my being.” Darcy Budworth is the co-founder and race director of Take The Bridge, which is an underground and unsanctioned series of races that was born in New York City in 2015 and has since spread to numerous other cities around the world. I raced my first Take the Bridge this past February in San Francisco and I loved everything about it. As I wrote in my newsletter a few weeks ago, the race was low-key and community focused, the distance was unconventional—we happened to run 4.2 miles over the Golden Gate Bridge—and even the turns we took were up to us as long as we hit the required checkpoint along the way. There were no mile markers, no clocks, and at the end of the night, you were battling it out for place, not trying to run a pre-determined pace. There was level of purity to it that I really appreciated and, quite honestly, didn't even know I missed. It reminded me a lot of cross-country but with a fast and the furious, every runner for him or herself urban street vibe to it. In this conversation, Darcy and I talked a lot about Take the Bridge and all aspects of unsanctioned racing in general, but we also got into her background, how she got into running, her relationship to the sport, as well as some discussion about stress, anxiety, injuries, and more.

“Both disciplines attract that type of person, who can chase down specific goals, who is competitive, not necessarily with other people, but with themselves. I think that's a big thing you see in dance and it's a big thing you see in running—yeah, you're competing for the top spot, you're competing for the spot in the company, you're competing for the lead role on Broadway, if you're in high school, you're literally at dance competitions that you want to win. In running, yeah, if you're at the front of the pack, it's the same: you're competing to break the tape. But I think inherently what I see a lot of in both is this idea of wanting to be your best self in your discipline, and seeing what that brings out in you as a person.” Ali Feller is the host of the super popular Ali on The Run Show podcast, where every week she talks to inspiring people who lead interesting lives on the run and beyond. I'm a longtime listener of her show, she has a great range of guests from top pros to average age-groupers and all sorts of other folks who are doing unique things in and around running. Plus, Ali is an incredible interviewer who just really knows how to keep a conversation flowing. But in this episode, she's my guest and we hit on a lot of different topics, from dealing with imposter syndrome and learning how to push it to the side, to attending the Olympic Trials Marathon in Atlanta and what she took away from that experience, why she's way more passionate about other people's running than her own (and when that flipped for her), starting her podcast and how it's evolved over the course of 200+ episodes, battling Crohn's disease since the age of 7 and how that's impacted her running and her life, the strategies she uses to manage stress and anxiety, and a lot more.

“For me, I actually like being in the corner with my back up against the wall because it forces me to figure a way out. And I'm not feeling that just yet, or at least to a degree where I feel like I'm in trouble, but if I do, I'm going to figure a way out out of it. I don't know what that is right now but you get creative with it.” We are back with the first Ask Mario Anything episode of 2020, featuring yours truly taking a wide range of reader and listener questions from John Summerford, producer of the morning shakeout podcast, who will tell you more about who he is, how we got connected, what he is working on, and how his relationship with running has evolved in the first part of the show.

“I'm obsessed with everything I pick. Whatever it is, I don't really question it. Most of the time, my obsessions, I don't know what's happening when they start. I just tug on a thread a little bit and then just full on yank on it and connect it to a bus and drive it out of town...The idea of exploring and learning and my mind just exploded at university. Exposed to psychology for the first time, like Psych 101 just changed everything. It was like, ‘Wait, this is how we work?' I know more about myself now than I ever did and I think that was the productive push to this idea of pulling on a thread that was good, and it was really sports photography that was that first passion that turned into something, rather than just a passive interest. I mean, when I was a teenager in high school I started building the internet and playing with HTML and CSS and thought it was neat that you could make stuff move on a screen, and I had my own little website for cars that I was building. So yeah, I guess I've always been obsessed. I totally forgot. I've always been this obsessive, 100 percent.” Jody Bailey is one of the top photographers in the running game today and I've been a big fan of his work for the past couple years. He calls himself a “visual ethnographer of running” and his photos and stories have appeared in media outlets such as Tempo Journal, InnerVoice, and Like the Wind magazine, in campaigns for brands like Brooks, ASICS, Saucony and others, and in various other places. We recorded this conversation the morning after the recent U.S. Olympic Trials Marathon, which, in addition to being an awesome event on its own, served as Jody's unofficial 4-year anniversary of his introduction to running and photographing the sport. We talked the spark that ignited his interest in running and desire to document its culture, how he got his start in sports photography, being self-taught as a photographer, web designer, and computer programmer, how curiosity and competitiveness fit into different areas of his life, the importance of community, the current landscape of running photography, and a lot more.

"It’s almost like I was running away from what had happened." Anita Perez just might be one of the most inspiring, hardworking, dedicated women you'll ever meet. She's a 2:39 marathoner (who also runs a 1:17 half marathon), a single mom to two kids, and a middle school special education teacher. She's kind and caring, and she works her butt off in every facet of her life (including waking up at 3 AM to get her workouts in). On this episode, she talks about what it was like running at the 2020 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials last month, compares that to her experience running the 2016 Trials, and opens up about the years in between. She talks about her mom passing away after a short and devastating bout with cancer, and opens up about how that affected her running. It's a powerful, poignant episode.

“The day that Kobe Bryant passed away, something snapped in me. I realized how short life can be—and I never met him, and I didn't even know him much, but the things that people were writing about him, there was just something that made me snap out of it. I realized that I hadn't seen my family for over 3 years. Why had I not seen them? I had not seen them because I was making excuses that I was working very hard to make the Olympic team, but I don't think I had my mind and heart in it. In that moment, I realized that I was wasting time and making excuses and not really taking advantage of the opportunity that I had, and in that moment, I decided that I was going to fully commit to making the team. So that was seriously the day that I recommitted myself to making the team and believing that I was going to make it.” Aliphine Tuliamuk recently won the U.S. Olympic Trials Marathon in Atlanta to qualify for her first Olympic team. She ran away from Molly Seidel in the last two miles of the race to break the tape in 2:27:23 and fulfill her American dream. The 30-year-old is a native of Kenya and became a U.S. citizen in 2016. She lives in Flagstaff, Arizona and trains with HOKA Northern Arizona Elite under coach Ben Rosario. Aliphine is a graduate of Wichita State University, where she was 14-time All-American and earned a degree in public health. She's a now a ten-time national champion as well as a two-time guest on this podcast, initially appearing back on Episode 15, which you should go listen to if you missed it the first time around. This conversation was mostly focused on the Olympic Trials, how the battle actually played out versus how Aliphine thought it would go, and what life has been like for her in the days since winning the race. We talked about Aliphine's Olympic dream and developing a renewed sense of appreciation for the opportunities she's been presented in life. Aliphine told me about the impact that Kobe Bryant's death had on her mindset heading into the Olympic Trials, why she was uncharacteristically nervous in the days before the race, what the final stretch of the race was like for her when she realized she was going to make the team, how she will use her elevated platform to inspire more people moving forward, and a lot more.

“I see coaching as an art form—and it's the science [that] gives you the tools that you need—but just like we found out that you tie two strings together and you pluck it, it reverberates and it makes a noise, it doesn't mean you can play Little Wing on the guitar. So we know what physiology looks like, what blood flow looks like, what muscle function looks like, but taking that and putting it into a program for a human being, to me, is an art form and that is an infinite pursuit.” Michael Olzinski is a good friend, coaching colleague, and occasional training partner of mine. He's one of the most interesting people I know as well as one of the smartest guys I've ever met. He's got a Masters degree in exercise physiology and primarily coaches triathletes as a member of the staff at Purple Patch Fitness. He's also the co-founder and head coach of the Nth Degree Athletic Club, one of the most popular and fastest-growing run crews in San Francisco. Mike played hockey and lacrosse through college but took an interest in endurance sports while in grad school and has never looked back. He started running road races before transitioning to triathlon for a while and, in recent years, he's actually put on the spikes and competed in middle-distance races on the track. In this conversation, we talked about where Mike's interest in athletics started and how it's grown over the years, why he's gotten into racing middle distances on the track in his mid-30s, the influence his coaches have had on his life and how he landed in his current profession, the differences between a cheerleader and a coach, working through rough patches in running and in life, starting his own run crew and sharing his love for the sport with others, and a ton more.

"Running City USA" will together with the Atlanta Track Club host on Feb. 29th (leap day) 2020 for the Trials and March 1st for the Marathon. Running Anthropologist catches up with Rich Kenah (Executive Director of the Atlanta Track Club) to discuss hosting this one-of-a-kind event in one exciting weekend! Rich has traveled to and raced in more than 30 countries, including in the Sydney Olympics in 2000. One can easily see he "is a true believer in the power of this sport and its ability to change the direction of people's lives". He discusses organizing the world’s largest 10K – the AJC Peachtree Road Race, and how that experience informs this upcoming historic Marathon weekend- namely the logistics of coordinating an entire city of staff and volunteers. By the way, with more than 115,000 participants at our events and 28,000 members, ATC is the second largest running club in the United States. In this episode, he describes how running has had an immeasurable impact on his life, a job he gets to talk about running all day long. He also describes what it's like to qualify for the Olympics and what it's like to be a competitive runner: disappointment and injury, ups and downs, finishing his career on a very high note. For example, in 1996 when Atlanta hosted the Olympics, he missed making the U.S. Olympic Team by tenths of a second. And those years proved to be his most productive as a professional runner, just after this loss: winning two World Championship medals, setting a world record & coming back to finally win his Olympic berth for Sydney. He also describes what it was like to be a part of the Olympic Athlete Village and walking into the Olympic Stadium wearing a USA uniform. This success, he believes, helps athletes transfer to other areas of life. Rich was also a sports marketing professional for many years after his running career, and had many challenges in these roles as well. Rich touches on the depth of programming they offer in the interview, and desire to help young runners especially; from elementary to high school runners finding their footing, and everything from first-time running programs to training Olympic hopefuls!

The RunRunLive 4.0 Podcast Episode 4-327 – Kyle & Brent Pease – Where there's a wheel there's a way!(Audio: link) [audio:http://www.RunRunLive.com/PodcastEpisodes/epi4327.mp3]Link epi4327.mp3MarathonBQ – How to Qualify for the Boston Marathon in 14 Weeks - http://www.marathonbq.com/qualify-for-the-boston-marathon-in-14-weeks/Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, my friends. Wherever and whenever this ghost of my voice finds you I hope you are well. Welcome to the RunRunLive podcast Episode 4-327. Today we have a great talk with Kyle and Brent Pease who are a team of brothers that run races. I think you'll dig their story and get a kick out of their running adventures. In the first section I'm going to talk a bit about flexibility and range of motion. In the second section I'm going to talk about Dr. Carol Dweck's book, “Mindsets”. …It's been a good couple weeks since we last chatted. I am recovered from my rolled ankle and running well. I've got a bit of a head cold today so I apologize for the sexy voice. I'm heading down to Atlanta this weekend, actually tomorrow, to run the Jeff Galloway half. It will be a good test race for me. I'm planning to go out at marathon pace, try to pace it well and close strong. Weather looks reasonable. It's a hilly course, but that's ok, I need the work and the practice. I raced the Mill Cities Relay last weekend. It's a 5-leg, invitation only, local club relay race. I was the captain of a senior team. The legs are all different lengths but there's one long one, leg 4, which is a 9.5 miles and that was my leg. We got perfect racing weather. It was mid-30's and sunny with no wind – so it ran warmer than the temperature. I raced in short shorts, a long sleeve tech with my club singlet over it, a fuzzy hat and light cotton gloves. I carried a bottle of UCan. Leg 4 is an entirely slight downhill route that follows the Merrimack River. It's additionally challenging because the leg before it is only 2.5 miles so you really don't have much time to warm up. You basically have to jump out of the car and go. My plan was to pace it at near my target marathon pace of 8 minute miles then close hard at the end to mimic a step-up or negative split. Me being me, instead I lit out like a cat with its tail on fire and was racing in the low 7's from the start. Once I got a couple miles in I managed to calm down a bit and came in with an overall average of 7:26 for the leg. I was happy with the time, because, like the Thanksgiving 5k it shows me that I have gotten some of my speed back. My legs were the constraint. I was hurting in the last couple miles with dead legs and wouldn't have made it much farther. Someone took a picture of me on the course and my form is crappy. In the picture I'm over-striding. My quads were dead and it wrecked my form. With this additional data point I've pivoted my workouts to longer tempo training away from the speed work. I got 2 more 9+ mile step-up runs in this week going into Sunday's race. I'll see how marathon pace feels on the legs for the half and that will give me a good idea of where I am. If all goes well I'll try to target a race in January to see if I can stretch it out to the full 42k. All good. I feel strong. The heart is hanging in there. …I drove up to Buffalo NY last week from where I live in Mass. It's interesting to drive through upstate NY and Western Mass. 100 years ago this area was the center of industry and commerce. Each valley has a town with a brick factory, a rail line and a court house, but there's not much industry anymore. I drove by the Erie Canal and many tumble-down farms and old buildings. It's not to say that the area is super depressed or a wasteland, it isn't. It just isn't industrial anymore. It's like a museum to the industrial age. But, when I see one of those finely crafted brick buildings in the landscape I see a person's dream. Someone had the dream and the persistence to put a factory there or a house or a barn. They dreamed big of a better future. They bet big on a big future. They took leaps of faith and built without knowing what was going to happen. I wonder where those people are today. Where are they that believe in growth and abundance? Who among us has the curiosity and drive to build something new on the landscape? Maybe it's me. Maybe it's you. On with the show. Section one - Running TipsPart One - Form - http://runrunlive.com/prepping-for-a-harder-training-cycle-part-one-formVoices of reason – the conversationKyle & Brent Pease – Where there's a wheel there's a way!Pease Brothers Bio KYLE PEASE At Kennesaw State University, Kyle excelled in the Sports Management field. He worked on designing disabled athlete friendly sports facilities in Acworth, GA before graduating in 2008 with a BS in Sports Management. Throughout his time at KSU, he was an active member and event coordinator for ABLE (Advocacy, Boldness, Leadership, and Empowerment), KSU's disabled student organization. Kyle was also a brother of KSU's Pi Kappa Phi fraternity. Kyle has worked as a liaison and an ambassador at a major grocery store chain and at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. Kyle enjoys competing in marathons and Ironman races with his older brother, Brent. With the mission of instilling hope and determination, Kyle wants to help people see the world from a different view. Through his accomplishments and speeches he hopes to provide a positive outlook and inspiration for individuals looking for motivation in their own lives. Kyle's message, though always delivered with a sense of humor, is heartfelt and inspired by his unique perspective of life. BRENT PEASE Brent, an avid sports fan, always enjoyed competing in sports as a child. It wasn't until he completed his first Irondistance race in 2010 that he and Kyle really enjoyed sports together. Since then he has gone on to complete six Ironman races and numerous 70.3 & Olympic distance races. Brent swam at Woodward Academy and graduated from Florida State University. Brent is multi-sport coach with Dynamo Multisport and is the Executive Director of the Kyle Pease Foundation. THE BROTHERS PEASE Together Kyle and Brent help other disabled athletes compete in the multisport & endurance world through their non-profit organization, The Kyle Pease Foundation. The Kyle Pease Foundation promotes success for young persons with disabilities by providing assistance to meet their individual needs through sports and competition. Programs include scholarship opportunities, adaptive sports equipment, and participating in educational campaigns around Cerebral Palsy. The Pease brothers have completed over 30 races together since 2011. Brent and Kyle recently completed their second 140.6 mile race together at Ironman Florida with a time of 13 hours, 38 minutes. In 2013, the Pease brothers completed their first iron-distance race at Ironman Wisconsin with a time of 15 hours, 9 minutes.Press October 2014: Pair of Brothers Compete in This Year's Ironman http://www.wjhg.com/home/headlines/Pair-Of-Brothers-Compete-In-This-Years-IRONMAN--281023582.html October 2014: Atlanta Brothers Aim to Make History http://www.wsbtv.com/news/news/local/atlanta-brothers-aim-make-history-ironman-race/nhtRf/ July 2014: Pease brothers push through the AJC Peachtree Road Race together http://www.11alive.com/story/news/local/2014/07/02/kyle-pease-brent-brothers-peachtree/12026855/ Sept 2013: Pease Brothers Finish First Ironman Tri http://www.myfoxatlanta.com/story/23362269/pease-finish-ironmantri#ixzz2qDrQKVaEThe Kyle Pease Foundation 711 Cosmopolitan Dr #126 | Atlanta, GA 30324 | 404-822-2383Section two – Gratitude - http://runrunlive.com/gratitude-2Outro - Closing commentsMarathonBQ – How to Qualify for the Boston Marathon in 14 Weeks - http://www.marathonbq.com/qualify-for-the-boston-marathon-in-14-weeks/ That's it my friends you have successfully driven through the postindustrial landscape of Episode 4-327 of the RunRunLive Podcast. Keep an eye out for Kyle and Brent when you're out at races, say ‘hi'. I'm racing this weekend at the Galloway. Then I'm going to load up a couple cycles of high mileage to bulk up my distance on top pf my speed and tempo and with that, who knows? Maybe I'll be ready to requalify. It's a scary thing for me. Now that I find myself on the precipice again it scares me. But, you never know how a race is going to turn out until you stand on the starting line and take the test. I've got a guy recording the audio version of my MarathonBQ book. He does a podcast called the “Passerby” podcast which is about story telling. Remember if you stop getting the RunRunLive podcast every 2 weeks go into iTunes and re-subscribe to the new feed. …Last week. In addition to driving to Buffalo I was also on a plane in Alabama. When I got on the plane I mistakenly sat in the wrong seat. I knew I had an aisle seat, but I sat in D when I was supposed to be in C. This odd gentleman sits in the C seat and is looking at his ticket confusedly. He mumbles something about ‘I think you're in my seat'. I check my boarding pass and say ‘you're right – but it's the same seat if you just want to stay there'.He says ‘no' and he wants his seat. I'm like, ‘OK buddy, no problem' and we do the dosey-doe and swap aisle seats right next to each other. The other passengers are giving bemused smirks and ironically raised eyebrows. The thing is, now that I'm in my correct seat, the C seat there's an empty seat next to me. It's the only empty seat on the whole plane. Karma. I try to be super nice to people this time of year because everyone is so stressed out. If you follow me on social media you might notice that I don't jump on any of the hate and religion and politics stuff. It doesn't affect me one way or another what you are angry about. You see, I figure I can really only control my side of the relationship. And even if you are doing a really bad job of executing your side of the relationship by, let's say, being a dick, I still can only control my own thoughts and actions, and that's where I focus my energy. So as we stroll through the end of the year why don't you try to be the best customer that sales clerk has ever had? Why don't you try to be the partner that your loved ones deserve? Why don't you try to be that member of your community and society that holds up your end of the relationship? Because that's under your control. And while you're noodling that, I'll see you out there.
