Angelina Napoleon is 20, but she's already shaking up the NCAA and U.S. elite running scene like a veteran.She is a World U20 medalist, NCAA runner-up, Olympic Trials finalist, and the owner of more national records than most people rack up in a lifetime.Let's talk numbers: She ran 9:32 for the 3000m steeplechase this summer, a personal best that put her within a heartbeat of the Paris Olympic team. She still owns the U.S. high school record in the 2000m steeple, clocking 6:18 back in 2022. In the 1500? 4:10. The mile? 4:33. She's got insane talent.But stats only scratch the surface. Angelina's story is about way more than medals. Born and raised in Allegany, New York (and now training at NC State), she's gone from self-taught hurdler to NCAA All-American and team leader. She's fiercely honest about mental health, fueling struggles, and coming back from setbacks—using her platform to speak out for equity, mentorship, and real talk in women's sports.From hosting “Mindful Miles” on Instagram to launching a nutrition series with her new NIL deal, Angelina is showing athletes that you can be both vulnerable and unstoppable. In today's conversation, Angelina walks me through this massive breakthrough performance, what goes into a breakthrough, the blueprint for her breakthrough, what it means to make a world championship team, why having a bleieving coach is so crucial, using missing the trials last year as motivation, and her dreams to break 9:00 in the steeple and be the face of the US in this event for the decade to come.

On this episode of HALO Talks, host Pete Moore sits down with Tony Reed—a longtime marathoner, accomplished CPA, grandfather, and passionate advocate for healthier communities. Tony shares his journey that initially began with a childhood diagnosis of pre-diabetes and grew into a lifelong commitment to fitness. He discusses how running not only changed his own life, helping him avoid diabetes, and chronic disease, but also inspired him to support others, particularly within the African American community, through education and community-building. Tony details the beginning of the National Black Marathoners Association, the myths they aim to dispel, and the training and sustainability programs they've launched over the past 20 years. He also talked about the organization's impact—including producing documentaries and creating a nationwide network of running clubs—and offers solid advice for anyone looking to balance a demanding career with a purpose-driven mission. Whether you're a runner, a club owner, or an advocate for healthier, more inclusive communities, Tony's story and insights are absolutely worth your time! When it comes to starting up clubs, Reed states, "We've encouraged our members to get their coaching certifications either through the Roadrunners Club of America or USA Track and Field. Then once they get their certifications, for example, they could partner with a health club, and within that health club, they can actually have a distance running club." Key themes discussed Diabetes prevention and health through running. Overcoming myths about African Americans in distance running. Founding and mission of Black Marathoners Association. Importance of education, training, and sustainability. Partnerships with health clubs and coaches. Inspirational stories and role models in running. A few key takeaways: 1. Personal Health Journey as a Catalyst Tony was pre-diabetic as a child and was told he'd likely need insulin as a teen. Instead, through consistent physical activity, inspired by mandatory sports in school and Dr. Kenneth Cooper's book "Aerobics," Tony committed to a lifelong goal—averaging three miles a day. Decades later, he's run over 51,000 miles and never needed insulin. 2. Turning Personal Motivation into Community Impact Tony's health transformation and running achievements led him to create a formal organization aimed at getting African Americans more involved in distance running. Sparked by community interest when he neared his 50th marathon, he turned his personal discipline into a mission and movement, focusing on education, training, and sustainability. 3. Dispelling Myths and Creating Representation One of the association's core pillars is education: Challenging the myths that African Americans are only sprinters and not suited to distance running. Tony and his organization have produced documentaries to showcase role models and share inspirational stories within the community. 4. Building Partnerships and Running Communities The organization actively encourages members to get certified as running coaches and set up local running clubs—sometimes in partnership with health clubs. They provide role models, resource sharing, and opportunities to affiliate local clubs with the wider movement, enhancing retention and engagement in health clubs by helping members train toward collective race goals. 5. Impact and Legacy Tony's organization is a non-profit with free membership and has directly or indirectly influenced over a quarter million African Americans to get active. Celebrating its 20th anniversary, the association continues to grow, foster community, and provide platforms (like their annual summit) for sharing ideas and expanding their impact.

He broke the barrier—and the sport felt it.Quentin Nauman is back on the pod in the final episode of our Festival of Miles series—a fitting finish to a week that reminded us just how far the sport is moving.Just days ago at the HOKA Festival of Miles, Quentin lined up against the top high school milers in the country and ran 3:58.65—joining the elite ranks of sub-four athletes and pushing the ceiling of what high school runners can do. It wasn't just a win. It was a cultural moment in high school track.This year has been something different. Sub-four miles are no longer mythical, they're happening. But Quentin's not just following the wave. He's setting it.Earlier this season, he became the first high school athlete in U.S. history to run sub-1:50 in the 800 and sub-4:00 in the 1600 at the same meet. That's not progression. That's a shift in what young athletes believe is possible.What's fueling this surge in high school distance running? What does it mean to carry the weight of a generational leap? And where do we go from here, now that the old limits are falling?This isn't just a fast kid running fast. This is a flashpoint in the evolution of the sport and Quentin Nauman is right in the middle of it.In today's conversation, Quentin takes me through a race that will define him and his legacy for years to come. We dive into the BTS of the 2025 FOM and Quentin's legendary performance, where he won in 3:58 in a 54 close; we talk about the rest of his season, his ambitions for the future, including breaking Alan Webb's record, and more.

Why older runners can get faster is what we're talking about in this episode! This was such a fun and informative conversation with my friend Carolyn Coffin who is a fellow running coach, podcaster, and physiotherapist. We're sharing our top age-defying running tips that will have you feeling energetic, strong, and motivated to hit the pavement in your 40's, 50's, and beyond! We know the stereotypes out there with age and running… ”You shouldn't be running anymore”... “running is bad for your knees”...“Your too old to run marathons anymore” The real challenge is understanding how you can get faster at any age.

Whether you're a seasoned runner or just starting out, these tips will help you defy your age and reach your running goals. So, let's get started and take your running to the next level! We answer these common questions and so much more: - Does running keep you healthy as you age - Does age affect how fast you can run - What is the age graded score for running - Can you run faster after 40 - How to improve sprint speed over 40 - Misconception about getting faster as we age There are six parts of your running journey that need to be optimized so you can run strong and last long!

[Download] The Ultimate Runner's Knee Guide to Pain Free Running Knee pain while running? Here's what you need to know about runner's knee or patellofemoral pain syndrome. No running is not bad for your knees and no you don't need to stop running with knee pain. In fact, regular running strengthens the joints and actually protects against development of knee arthritis later in life. If you are feeling achy knee pain along the inside or front of your knee that worsens with running uphill, stairs, squatting, or sitting for a long period of time and you have tried icing, resting (stop running) and a knee brace but you're frustrated that your pain keeps coming back whenever you try to run faster or build back those long runs again this is for you! In today's training, we're uncovering the truth about Patellofemoral Pain Syndrom…what it is, why it happens, and how you can get back to running pain-free. I'm going to reveal the top causes and the truth about knee pain in runners and what you should really know about taking up running as an adult! You will learn: -What is runner's knee -How do you know if you have runner's knee -Why do runners get patellofemoral pain syndrome -Why is runner's knee not getting better -3 Powerful ways to turn off knee pain while running Return to Running Program without Knee Pain here Follow along with my 25 Minute Strength Workout for Runners (TO RUN PAIN FREE) Listen to my previous episode on knee pain demystified: Is it Runner Knee of IT Band Syndrome? here!

[Download] The Ultimate Marathon Training Guide How early should you start training for a marathon?...How about now!? I had the opportunity to talk with the amazing Carolyn Coffin on the Inspired Soles Podcast on what we can do as runners when we are not officially "marathon training". Carolyn Coffin is not only a friend of the show (episodes 108, 160, 200, 213) but she has a 3:21 marathon PB and recently ran a 3:24 in Chicago this past fall 9 years later! In this episode, we discuss the importance of year-round training for marathon success and why Marathon Training technically starts way before your 16 or 20 week training cycle. So if you are feeling a bit in a rut after the holidays and during the colder winter months but you still have big marathon goals in 2025 (like I do) then this is the episode for you! We dive deep into mindset, strength training, and following a properly structured run plan so that you're not starting back at square one when you decide to officially begin your next training cycle.
