Des Linden is not your typical marathon champion. Instead of emulating others, Des blazes her own path.  Some might say that she even prides herself on not doing things like everyone else.  And when someone tells her she can't, she figures out a way to prove she can. Des is a two time Olympian and became the first American woman in 33 years to win the Boston Marathon on a brutally cold and rainy Patriot's Day in 2018.  At age 39, she is still competing professionally and will be toeing the line at Boston again this year. Welcome to the Planted Runner.  I'm Coach Claire Bartholic and my mission is to help you improve your running, your mindset, and your life with science-backed training and plant-based nutrition. Today I'm sharing my conversation with Des Linden.  You'll learn: Some of the stories behind her historic win in Boston How her training has changed as she has gotten older, and Why she keeps showing up in the sport when some would say her best years are behind her. Des has written a memoir of her life and incredible career which will be out April 4th called “Choosing to Run.”  In it she shares the behind-the-scenes of her amazing accomplishments, some of which she's never told before. We also talk about why she's always felt like a little bit of an outsider in the professional running scene and why she wouldn't have it any other way. Don't forget to stay tuned all the way to the end of the episode for another Mental Strength Minute.  Fortify your mind in 60 seconds or less. LINKS: Order Des Linden's book "Choosing to Run." This episode is brought to you by the PR Team.  The PR Team is a small group of runners, just like you, who are working with me and each other to stay consistent, stay accountable, and work towards becoming better runners every day.  Not to mention, it's really fun.  I talk more about the team in the episode, but if you are ready to learn more right now, head to https://www.theplantedrunner.com/group. ▶️The Planted Runner is now on YouTube!

Www.Run4prs.com —> we build stronger runners! Fill out the form on our site to get a free 7 day trial of custom run training. For those who follow us on instagram, you may know that we had 5 different run4prs coaches due with babies between August of 2020 and April 2021! 5 run4prs babies in less than 8 months. It is a run4prs coaches baby boom, so we decided to have a podcast on the topic of running during pregnancy & postpartum because many people have watched us training from afar and are curious about some of the topics involved. This topic of training during and after pregnancy is more specific and a bit different than past episodes. If you have no interest in hearing about running in relation to pregnancy, motherhood & postpartum, it might be the time to skip this episode. We will mainly be sharing about our own personal experiences. Each pregnancy and each person is SO different. When we work with postpartum or pregnant athletes, it’s important to make things individualized to YOU! This is just our own personal experience. I am coach Victoria, and I am a mom of 2 kiddos. I currently have a 4 month old & a 3 year old. I ran 1700 miles during my first pregnancy & 1500 miles during my second which ends up being about 40 miles per week. I also ran the Boston Marathon 5 months postpartum & my current PRs in the half and full marathon within 12 months postpartum with my first child. My experiences are just my own and are not always the norm for running during pregnancy or postpartum. I have brought on another coach to discuss our different experiences. Coach Briana is almost 6 months postpartum with her first baby. She ran for most of her pregnancy and is training for her first marathon right now and crushing it! Coach Briana has been coaching for 6 years and prior to that was a personal trainer. She is very experienced in the field of human kinesiology, so I am excited to chat with her about this! We will dive right in with some questions PRE-PREGNANCY Before we dive into pregnancy running, we wanted to cover the trying to conceive & pre-pregnancy topics that soon-to-be-moms-to-be may be curious about I am sure you worked with lots of women over the years. We all know losing your period is not a good thing. Can you explain why someone might lose their period? Have you ever lost your period due to intense training? Have you ever thought you needed to cut back your training to get pregnant? How long did it take you to get pregnant? What was your training like during that time leading up to pregnancy? Did you plan racing around pregnancy or vice versa? (registering for big races like Boston) How did you think running during pregnancy would be before you got pregnant? PREGNANCY How was your first trimester? How was training impacted? Were you ever scared to run? What has your HR been when training? What has your OBGYN said about training? What was your training like during the second trimester? What was your training like during the 3rd trimester? When did you know it was time to cut down or stop? Did you do any additional strength training or yoga? Postpartum Do you think running helped with labor and delivery Did your delivery go as planned? Did anyone tell you that you would ‘bounce back’? Did it happen? How long did you take off?/How was recovery? How did you start back with walking? If you are breastfeeding, how do you incorporate that with running (aka not getting mastitis, I'd love to chat on this one because I learned so much along the way)? Race goals after baby and expectations? Is it harder or easier than you thought it would be?

You know those people that everybody seems to like? They have charisma. They're affable. Like Jeff Daniels on the Newsroom. That's Matt Javitch. Matt has been taking a barbell-approach to investing in Boston real estate and startups. He's my go-to resource for investment advice because, unlike some advisors who try to sell me their advice, he makes a living off his investment thesis. Also, he's never tried to sell me a thing. I invited Matt on the show to give me a deep dive into real estate investing fundamentals, quitting corporate life for startup investing and more. We talk about The networking scene in Boston How to quit your job and start a business The real estate investment market How real estate investing is different and complementary to startup investing How to get started in real estate investing How to be successful in real estate investing Pleas enjoy this episode of Hacker Practice with Matt Javitch: Notes [00:00] How Justus and Matt met [01:00] Networking in Boston Events are becoming more and more niche-specific You know what you’re getting when the event is very specific [5:00] Matt’s background in finance Financial advising and real estate investment [7:00] Why small networking events can be super valuable Most events are really hit or miss Networking is a numbers game [10:00] What Matt did to prepare to leave Saved capital Built a network Honed a valuable skill set as a real estate investment analyst [14:45] Specific numbers around how to leave your job and get into real estate investing Matt had 3-4 months of living expenses saved $300-400k pledged from investment partners [16:30] To be successful in real estate investing Have a long term vision Understand the financial risks Have a safety net or “plan B” [19:00] What would Matt do different if he started over Would have been more aggressive buying properties while at his job [20:30] What is Matt doing to mitigate risk of negative macro economic conditions Invest in “primary” markets (cities etc.) Some factors can’t be controlled but should be understood [23:45] The dumbbell strategy and Matt’s investment in startups Real estate is somewhat predictable compared to startups [27:00] Angel investing in Boston vs. Silicon Valley Boston has a conservative social and financial culture [30:00] How to get started real estate investing without any debt It’s challenging. Usually you make more money when you favor debt over equity Start with as little as $150-250k Start in a secondary, suburban market. Matt gets specific in greater Boston area Renovate, then rent or sell Can also experiment in other markets like San Antonio, Texas Southern markets are usually less expensive [34:00] Different geographic regions have different risk factors [37:00] Have $250k, bought a property, need to renovate, where do I start? Everything is quantified on a per foot basis Market research is critical. Different locations have different /sq ft costs. Understand the local housing market Look at last 6 months and what prices local homes have sold at vs. your prospective investment Brokers and legal costs often add up to around 5%+ of the cost [42:30] How much money do you budget for renovation? Again: focus on cost per square foot P = initial cost / sq ft R = cost of renovation / sq ft C = P + R F = price you sell the property at / sq ft PROFIT = F - C [46:00] Working with many contractors and sub-contractors [47:15] Selling the property Matt often lists and sells the house himself if it’s local (saves 2.5% commission) Real estate agents have less incentive to negotiate on your behalf than you (Freakonomics) [50:00] The most challenging part of real estate investing for Matt Inspectors vs contractor drama Local politics often play a role in inspection [56:00] A big part of Matt’s success can be attributed to his likability and how he incentivizes contractors to do quality work EQ is valuable in this regard [59:00] Final requests and contact info Do your homework and know your risks Matt is happy to talk to any aspiring investors (startup or real estate) Axilon Capital Partners 973.788.9333 What else?
