Edie Perkins was a 46-year-old elite runner and cyclist when a catastrophic accident left her paralyzed from the chest down—just as she was entering menopause. In this candid conversation, Edie reveals how her hormonal changes intersected with her spinal cord injury recovery, leaving her with misdiagnosed UTIs, sheet-soaking night sweats she blamed on her injury, declining bone density, and a huge struggle to sort through her challenges and get quality care. Yet, through all of it, Edie continues to race (finishing second place in the handcycle division of this year's Boston Marathon), ski, and live an active life. We talk about it all and more this week. Edie Perkins served as Executive Director of the Kelly Brush Foundation from 2021 to 2025. She previously spent over twenty years managing businesses and developing curriculum products for Pre-K-12 schools. In 2017, Edie was struck by a driver while riding her bike and suffered a spinal cord injury (SCI). She is now paralyzed from the chest down. Always an athlete and active in the running and cycling communities, she sought out support after her injury and is now a competitive handcyclist and finished second at the 2025 Boston Marathon. She is thrilled to bring together her professional background, passion for sports, and new experience living with an SCI to help others thrive.Resources:The Kelly Brush FoundationGet 25% off all courses through the end of June 2025!

Claire, one suggestion. Can we hear more interviews from slower runners? (Not those that say I'm slow but still run 8 min miles. I'm talking back of the pack 11-15 min pace.) Mel@Mal  ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Mental Strength! I found The Planted Runner blog and podcast when I was in the midst of training for my first half marathon this past spring. Coach Claire's information on a variety of running topics have really helped as a beginner; I especially love the mental strength minute segment! I never thought that running would be a part of my life, but I started a running habit in order to combat postpartum depression.

I am so excited to start my Half Marathon training plan from The Planted Runner in a few weeks.

WHEN RUNNING LIKE A GIRL IS A GOOD THING Meet Natalie Daniels. She Ran Boston in 2:50:04. Then Got Cancelled. Natalie Daniels, a 5x marathon winner and new mom, trained hard to run the Boston Marathon just six months postpartum. Before the race, she spoke out with XX-XY Athletics about fairness in women's sports — and faced backlash. Her teammates leaked her location, and her club told her not to wear their singlet. She ran anyway, in XX-XY gear, finishing in 2:50:04. After the race, she was kicked out for standing up for real women. Now she's starting a running club for women with the help of XX-XY. Find out more here, and Natalie joins me at 2:30 today to discuss it. Join the team running club here!

A conversation with running legend Amby Burfoot. Amby Burfoot stands as a titan in the running world. Crowned the Boston Marathon champion in 1968, he became the first collegian to win this prestigious event and the first American to claim the title since John Kelley in 1957.As well as a stellar racing career of over 62 years, Amby channeled his passion for running into journalism. He joined Runner's World magazine in 1978, rising to the position of Editor-in-Chief and then serving as its Editor-at-Large.As well as being the author of several books on running, he regularly contributes articles to major publications, and curates his weekly Run Long, Run Healthy Newsletter.  We talk about his origin story and the early relationships he cultivated with other notable runners like John J. Kelly the younger, and Bill Rogers.We discuss the recent performances and new world records coming from the professional marathon field and Amby gives his perspectives on what's driving the performance, and he discusses his skepticism with the authenticity of some of the recent performance given the possibility and prevalence of performance enhancement substances.We talk about the heightened popularity of running and Amby gives his advice to runners looking to perform, enjoy the sport recreationally, enhance general health and increase longevity in the sport.About Amby Burfoot on Marathon Handbook: https://marathonhandbook.com/author/amby/ Amby Burfoot's Run Long, Run Healthy Newsletter: https://marathonhandbook.com/run-long-run-healthy-newsletter/Amby's Books on Running: https://www.ambyburfoot.com/p/buy-autographed-book.htmlFollow Us:Facebook: https://Facebook.com/EventHorizon.TvTwitter: https://twitter.com/EventHorizonTvInstagram: https://instagram.com/eventhorizon.tvYouTube: https://youtube.com/c/EventHorizonTv    

Send us a textSteve Brumwell, 67, has been immersed in sports since junior high, excelling in basketball, football, track, and cross country. A standout athlete, he earned a scholarship to UC Santa Barbara where he focused on distance running and the steeplechase. After a 37-year career as a high school PE teacher and basketball coach, Steve returned to competitive running, inspired by his youngest daughter's collegiate cross country journey. He lost over 40 pounds in seven weeks so that he could run with her. Though he now is mostly retired from road racing after competing in events like the USATF road circuit and the Boston Marathon, Steve continues to race on the track, representing the SoCal Track Club with former college teammates. Despite recent injuries and setbacks, he stays motivated by the friendships and community he's built through Masters athletics. For Steve, the true victory is in the people he meets and inspires along the way.

Kacy, running her seventh Boston, shares the highs and lows from the course, from the nostalgic energy of Heartbreak Hill to the emotional charge of Boylston Street. Kate, who's run Boston three times herself, was on the other side of the barricades this year—working in the finish line medical tent as part of the massive team supporting thousands of runners crossing the line.Together, they bring two perspectives to one unforgettable race day: the physical and emotional grind of running Boston, and the organized chaos of caring for runners in distress. They also dive into stories from years past, race-day mishaps, and the reasons this race continues to inspire and humble them both.

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are joined by Jonathan Thomas, known on trail as Janis Joplin. Janis Joplin is a thru-hiker, FKT record holder, D1 collegiate track and field athlete, former news cameraman, Boston Marathon bombing survivor, CDT trail angel, and owner of Exotic Pax, an innovative, vest-style backpack for thru-hikers handmade in Chama, New Mexico. This episode covers a lot of ground, including the many times he's narrowly escaped death, what is was like growing up in New Orleans, being a D1 collegiate athlete, what brought him into the world of FKTs and how FKT athletes are more possessive over their records than they might lead on, what it's like to run an outfitter in a sleepy CDT town, and the inspiration and process that goes into his unique backpacks. We wrap the show with a reversal on the closure of a campground key to JMT and PCT hikers, our takes on who'd win in a fight between 100 men and one silverback gorilla, and the Triple Crown of items you geniously stash in many strategic locations.

Welcome back to the Marathon Running Podcast! Today, we have the incredible honor of speaking with a truly world-renowned marathon coach, Ron Mann. Ron's name is synonymous with elite distance running, and his impact on the sport is undeniable. We're thrilled to welcome him to the show. Many of you will know Ron for his pivotal role in coaching the legendary Wesley Korir to his unforgettable victory at the 2012 Boston Marathon. And more recently, we've seen his guidance contribute to the impressive successes of John Korir in the marathon. Personally, I've had the privilege of a friendship with both Wesley and John, which makes this conversation with Ron even more special. In this episode, we'll delve into Ron's remarkable journey coaching at the highest levels of the sport, extracting invaluable insights and advice that aren't just for the elites, but for every single runner striving to improve.We are now on YOUTUBE:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@RunningPodcast Discount Codes for Runners: https://www.runswag.com·  Our website: ⁠www.marathonrunningpodcast.com⁠ ·  Our Instagram: ⁠@runningpodcast⁠·  Our Amazon Storefront: ⁠Amazon Storefront⁠·  Join our Facebook group: ⁠SpeedStriders Facebook Group⁠ https://www.facebook.com/groups/speedstriders ·  Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@RunningPodcast

When most of us think of “running blind”, we envision a state of panic where one must proceed without having a clear understanding of what lies ahead. Trail running can be challenging enough even when we can see the rocks and roots that can trip us up. John Robert Mckay, AKA The Blind Donkey Runner does not let that stop him. We hear the details of how he is able to avoid “rock in 3-2-1, ROCK” with the aid of guides. We hear about his journey to qualify and run The Boston Marathon, his racing on the track, trails and ultra events. John also shines the spotlight on local Georgia High School Track coaches and their athletes through his own podcast Southeastern High School Athletics and he is a subject matter expert! We spend a lot of time talking about making connections with others, and the courage required to stand on the starting line of a cross country race.

"There's this sense of all these people, they came out to watch you do this weird, crazy thing. And you're running toward the thing you've been working toward for many months, and all of these people are behind you, and people beside you trying to do the same thing. It's very special." First, Emily Oster started running. Then she started running fast. Then she ran a marathon: the California International Marathon in 2023, where she finished in a Boston Qualifying time of 3:17:39. Now, Emily is officially a Boston Marathoner, having completed this year's race in a personal best time of 3:14:53. In this episode, the economist and best-selling author breaks it all down, including what her training was like this time around, what the energy in the city felt like for a first-time Boston Marathoner, and why she briefly considered calling it quits at mile 23.

Scott Stallings is a PGA Tour golfer who stepped off the green and ran right into the Boston Marathon - with no experience. In this episode of the Mental Training Lab, I'm joined by Scott and performance expert Steve Magness to explore this athletic and psychological journey.Inspired by Steve's groundbreaking book Do Hard Things, Scott stepped completely outside his comfort zone, confronting challenges that tested his resilience, self-awareness, and mental adaptability. We hear what Scott learned about balancing response and reaction under pressure, how embracing vulnerability unlocked new insights, and why sometimes the most valuable performance lessons come from being willing to feel completely lost.This episode challenges traditional ideas about mental toughness, performance, and embraces the power of a beginner's mindset.

In spring 2024, after successfully running the Tokyo Marathon, Lauren experienced pain in her foot that has taken her on a journey of seeking a path to healing that has required multiple expert opinions, an unconventional approach to training for Boston (including the use of tools like Lever and Fluid Running), and a reimagining of her goals for her first Boston. Lauren balances her training with her responsibilities as a mother and business executive at Google. We are so grateful to Lauren for sharing her inspiring story!

This week's show brought to you by: MAS Iron Outside of training deficiencies, low iron is one of the most common reasons for poor results during workouts and races.  Recent research indicates that almost 56% of male runners and 86% of female runners suffer from an iron deficiency that severely hampers performance. The problem with eating iron-rich foods or supplementing with traditional iron supplements is that iron is notoriously difficult for the body to absorb and utilize. In fact, only about 25% of dietary iron found in animal sources is absorbed while 17% or less of the iron from plant sources is absorbed.

"We don't do things the easy way." Ten years ago, Darcy Budworth was feeling burned out on running and racing in New York City. The interior designer felt a pull toward something beyond the classic weekend morning road races in Central Park. Enter Take the Bridge: an unsanctioned urban race through city streets and over bridges, navigating traffic, pedestrians, and bike messengers, all at night, in the dark. In this conversation, Darcy talks about building the thing she thought was missing from the running community. She talks about how Take the Bridge has grown and expanded beyond NYC to 27 cities and nine countries. She talks about how they've stayed true to TTB's roots, fostering community, connection, and exciting racing — and about what they're doing to celebrate the event's 10th anniversary this summer.

"All those moments led to this. All the hard work really, truly pays off." In 2022, Sharon Lokedi made her marathon debut at the TCS New York City Marathon. It went pretty well for a first-timer: She won. Since then, Sharon has raced often and well, usually finding herself on a podium just behind frequent competitor and friend Hellen Obiri. Sharon finished second to Hellen in Boston last year, and finished just off the podium in fourth at last summer's Paris Olympics — again, just behind Hellen. So this year, Sharon lined up in Boston ready to see if she could overtake the two-time defending champion — and the rest of the field. You know how it played out: Sharon won the 2025 Boston Marathon in a personal best time of 2:17:22. In this conversation, the Kenyan-born, Flagstaff-based Under Armour Dark Sky Distance athlete talks about what it took to break the tape that Monday in Boston. She talks her childhood as the oldest of four kids being raised by a single mom, and about the adjustment when she came to the United States for college. And, of course, she breaks down race day in Boston, including how she felt that morning, whether she had a feeling it was going to be her day, and how she celebrated afterward (hello, new Gucci bag!).  FOLLOW SHARON @shazrine SPONSOR:  goodr: Click here and use code ALI for $5 off your next order.

"I've tried to take on that mindset for the last few years at these races, of, 'How do I show up as authentically as possible, as the Ali I know I am and want to be, while having fun, while being professional… What does that look like?' And I feel like I kind of nailed it this time around." There's nowhere I'd rather be on the third Monday in April than at the Boston Marathon finish line! This year, I was honored to be asked back to perform a variety of roles in Boston. I was one of the announcers at the Boston 5K, I hosted two panels and one live show, I was one of the race announcers at the finish on Marathon Monday, and I was the finish line reporter for the world feed broadcast. It was a fun, rewarding weekend that included quality time with my favorite people, my biggest live event ever, a million finish line hugs, a few too many after-parties, and so much more.
