Jemma Owen had never really been a runner. A busy mum of two young girls, she wasn't sporty growing up, and for years joked that her partner Dave "ran for the both of them." But turning 29, with a year ahead that would see her turn 30 and get married in the same week, she decided she wanted to reach that milestone as the happiest, healthiest version of herself, and quietly set out to make it happen.In this episode, Jemma joins host Ben Sheppard to tell the full story behind her secret nine weeks of training, swapping her sofas for a treadmill and running up and down the stairs while her daughters napped, all building towards a surprise nobody saw coming: running the Warrington Running Festival half marathon alongside her 77-year-old granddad Eddie, who was raising money for the Lilac Centre where her nan is being treated for stage four ovarian cancer. She talks through revealing her race number to him on the start line, holding his hand over the finish, and why a marathon is already next.

Turns out an untrained half marathon doesn't go unpunished. Bree Tomasel & Clint Roberts on ZM - find us @breeandclint on Instagram, Facebook and TikTok.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today in 2024, Dr. Shane Naidoo finished a half marathon quite a bit after every other runner on the course. But, then, he had a really good reason for coming in after everybody else. Plus: today in 1935, another amazing rescue in New Jersey, involving a ten year old boy and a show dog. A doctor saved a runner's life during a Jersey City half marathon. Then he finished the race.

Chris Chavez and Preet Majithia recap the World Road Running Championships, the ATHLOS London experience and some news on the future cities hosting the World Championships. Plus: Some big personal news.Discussed in this episode:– CITIUS MAG baby: Chris and Kari announced their pregnancy the day before recording. Baby due February 2027.– Nairobi gets the 2029 World Championships — the first senior global outdoor championship on the African continent, in the country that has produced more all-time greats than arguably any other. They've invested heavily in renovating the Kasarani Stadium. The altitude is roughly 5,500-6,000 feet — slightly higher than Boulder.– Munich 2031: Strong choice. Europeans 2022 in Munich was widely regarded as one of the best championships many attendees had seen. Germany has hosted World Championships before (Berlin 2009).– Athlos London — Preet's first-time assessment: The vibe was much closer to what he'd hoped World Ultimates would feel like– Keely's all-black Nike speed suit was stunning up close — the aerodynamic studs were coloured in a rainbow and changed colour in the light. Keely spoke clearly about the work that went into it and confirmed: it is within the current rules.– Women's mile: Agathe Guillemot (France) wins in 4:22 over Frewenyi Hilou. Fearless racing, earned gold after finishing fourth at both World Indoors and Europeans this year.– Women's 5K: Likina Amebaw (Ethiopia) wins in 14:41. Third major win to close the season: second at DL final, won World Ultimates, won World Road.– Men's 5K — biggest upset of the weekend: Dawit Seare from Eritrea — who Jakob had already passed — rallies in the final fifty meters and catches him at the line. Seare wins in 12:56. Jakob second in 12:59.– Women's half marathon — Agnes Ngetich, world record 65:15: Goes with the lead before 3K and turns it into a race for silver and bronze. Wins by 50 seconds (the cross country title in Tallahassee was by f42).– US women team silver: Emma Grace Hurley, Weini Kelati, Jess McClain go 5-6-7 — first time three Americans have broken 67 minutes in the same race– Emma Grace Hurley, 66:23: PB by 72 seconds. Women's-only American record. Moves to number three on the US all-time list. She is in the 2028 Olympic marathon trials contender bracket — before she has run one. Chicago debut: 2:19-2:20 on the table?– Men's half marathon — Andreas Almgren, European record 58:06: First European to win the half marathon World Championships since 1996. He is very fit. New York marathon field just got significantly more complicated.____________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.

Sarah wraps up this three-part mini-series with a deep dive into her experience of running the Copenhagen Half Marathon, as part of the World Athletics Road Running Championships.After a challenging training block, Sarah wasn't quite sure what to expect. Her goal was simply to get out there, see what she could do, and enjoy the experience of racing through such an amazing city. But would all of that change as she stood on the start line?And with Olympian Andy Baddeley pacing her, what could possibly go wrong?Rick shares his experience of supporting Sarah from the sidelines - although he only managed to see her half as many times as he was supposed to!The team also dive into how to effectively recover after a race, both physically and mentally, and why giving yourself time to reset is just as important as the training itself.Supported by ASICS.The Running Channel Podcast tackles one big topic each episode, amongst helpful tips and light-hearted chat on the latest news in the running world.

Annie Rodenfels is back on the podcast! Annie is one of the seven women we’re sending to the Half Marathon World Championships in Copenhagen, and I’m so excited to see her making this jump up in distance. Annie is a newbie to the half marathon. The U.S. Championships was actually her first half marathon! She’s known for being a steeplechaser and 5K runner, and she’s making the pivot to longer distances while still dabbling in the shorter distances as well. She’s definitely not done there. Annie is a D3 legend. She was a three-time national champion at Centre College, and after college she joined a pro team in Greenville, South Carolina, before eventually joining Team New Balance Boston. Now she’s training under Coach Julie Benson with the Meridian team and landed her first real-deal sponsorship with Salomon about a year ago. We talk about how meaningful it was for her to finally land that deal and what that support has meant for her career. She’s also a three-time champion of the New York Road Runners Abbott Dash to the Finish Line 5K, winning it in 2023, 2024, and 2025. We talk about her excellent half marathon debut at the U.S. Championships and, of course, the finish-line drama. Annie crossed the finish line third, but there was a whole situation with a group of women being taken off course, and she gives us the rundown on what actually happened. Now she’s getting ready to represent Team USA in Copenhagen, and there are definite plans to eventually pursue the marathon. It’s so exciting to see Annie move into these longer distances. She’s such a strong runner, and I personally think the marathon is going to be a great spot for her. And we have a fun little chat about books at the end, too!

What should you do if you are five weeks away from a half marathon and develop a metatarsal stress reaction? In this episode, Dr. Christopher Segler talks with a real runner who is preparing for a half marathon in Argentina after developing a fifth metatarsal stress reaction. He has already stopped running for five weeks and has been maintaining fitness with stationary cycling. The discussion focuses on the information a runner needs in order to decide what activity can be added safely: establishing injury severity, tracking pain trends, monitoring tenderness, reducing inflammation, maintaining strength and stability, and increasing stress on the bone systematically instead of simply going out for a test run. Dr. Segler also explains why X-rays can miss some stress fractures, how MRI and ultrasound may provide additional information, why zero pain is not always the only useful benchmark, and why runners need measurable baseline numbers before progressing activity.

This week I delivered an online webinar all about preparing for half marathon race weekend. This episode is the recording of that session.As I am also preparing for the half marathon, I show how to take the course and break it down into sections and then map that onto pacing bands that make sense for your experience and training.I also covered the weekend logistics, conditions, the pitfalls to watch out for as well as some mindset and nutrition tips. You can use these to prepare for any race, especially a big half marathon or marathon.Register your interest for my new group coaching opening soon which will provide you with tailored plans and support through online webinars and Q&A sessions just like this one.Go to www.therunningrules.com/groupcoaching

www.run4prs.comThe half marathon is one of the most misunderstood races.It's short enough to tempt you into going aggressive…but long enough that early mistakes will cost you in the final 5K.If you've ever:• Felt amazing at mile 4• Questioned your life at mile 10• Or completely faded in the final stretchThis episode is for you.Inside, we break down:• The biggest half marathon pacing mistake• What your effort should feel like in each segment of the race• How to pace miles 1–3 vs miles 9–13• Even splits vs negative splits (and which works best)• How to adjust for heat, hills, wind, and fitness level• The mental strategy that helps you close strong instead of surviveThe half marathon isn't about blasting the first 5 miles and hanging on.It's about patience early, commitment late, and controlled aggression in the final stretch.If you want to finish strong instead of fading at mile 10, this episode will help you rethink your pacing strategy.And if you're looking for personalized race pacing and structured training specific to your fitness, check the show notes for coaching options and resources.Race smart.Stay patient.Close strong.

Send us Fan Mail Running 13.2 miles taught me far more than how to finish a long run. In this episode, I'm sharing 13 lessons I learned while training for and completing my first half marathon distance, including what it taught me about mindset, consistency, self-trust, and knowing when to push versus when to stop.From mental blocks and changing expectations to walking when needed, celebrating progress, and learning to trust myself more deeply, this is a conversation about what can happen when you keep showing up without demanding perfection. Even if you're not a runner, these lessons can apply to work, motherhood, leadership, personal goals, and just about any hard thing you're working toward.What You'll Learn:How to tell the difference between discomfort and a real need to stopWhy consistency and progress do not have to look impressiveHow self-trust grows through small decisions and repeated effortKey Takeaways:You can be proud of yourself before you reach the finish lineAdjusting your approach does not make the goal count any lessConfidence grows when you learn to trust yourself to keep figuring things outCall to Action:Think about one goal you're currently working toward and identify any unnecessary rules you've attached to it.

In this episode, we break down the elements driving the modern era of endurance performance and explain how to cut through the social media noise to focus on what actually matters in coaching. We analyze the impact of elite pacing strategies and dissect how subtle tactical errors—like running wide on corners—can cost athletes anywhere from 27 meters to a massive 300+ meters over a race. Plus, we share evidence-based coaching insights on building true consistency, setting up your data screens for race day, and navigating the psychological trap of adrenaline-fueled pacing decisions. This episode is brought to you by TriVelo Coaching. We help triathletes and endurance athletes train smarter to race faster. Your hosts are Australian Ironman Champion Gerard Donnelly and endurance coach Jordan Donnelly.

Got feedback about this episode? Send Carolyn a textAt just 23 years old. Jadyn Keeler is quickly establishing herself as one of the most exciting young distance runners in Canada. Fresh off her graduation from the University of North Dakota, Jadyn has moved to Flagstaff, joined Golden Peaks Track Club under coaches Terrence Mahon and Jen Rhines, signed a professional contract with Adidas, and earned a spot on Team Canada for the World Road Running Championships in Copenhagen. In this episode, we talk about her remarkable half marathon debut in Edmonton, where a course-measuring error added roughly 700 metres to the race just as she was on pace to challenge the Canadian record; what it's like to receive the backing of Canadian running stars like Natasha Wodak and Rory Linkletter; her transition from NCAA athlete to professional runner; and what she believes she can accomplish in Copenhagen. Plus, we dig into the confidence that comes from knowing you've put in the work—and why there may be some very exciting things ahead for this rising Canadian star.SPONSOR: SEND IT - Greeting cards designed for those who sweatUse code INSPIREDSOLES at senditcards.com to claim 15% off your purchase - no minimum required. Follow Send It on Instagram: @senditgreetingcardsListen to Send It founder, Sarah Beairsto, on episode 267 of Inspired SolesConnect with Jadyn:Instagram: @jadynkeelerYouTube Channel: @jadynkeelerConnect with Carolyn:Instagram: @inspiredsolescast or @carolyn.c.coffinYou can help spread the running love!

Post-race recovery is not the avoidance of training. Rather, it is a crucial component of a well-periodized training plan, especially for a marathon or half marathon. In this episode, we first examine the physiological impact of racing a marathon or half marathon on the body. Then, we detail how to approach a recovery phase, including what can enhance or impair recovery after a race.In this episode, you'll learn:✅ What happens to your body after you run a marathon✅ Should you do a recovery run after the race?✅ How to structure a recovery phase after a half marathon✅ How to recover after a marathon✅ How to improve your post-race recovery✅ Health risks during the recovery phaseTread Lightly Running is hosted and researched by Amanda Brooks and Laura Norris, MSc.

Jadyn Keeler will be the first to admit that the further the race distance, the happier she is. That love for going long was on full display last weekend in Edmonton at the Canadian Half Marathon Championships, where even a measurement error that added nearly 700m to the stated race distance couldn't dampen her professional, and half marathon, debut. In just her second-ever road race, Keeler ran away from an historically deep women's elite field to claim her first national title. With the win, the 23 year old out of Barrie Ontario punched her ticket to next Month's World Road running Championships, where she'll look to keep the good times going against a world class field in Copenhagen, Denmark. Fresh off a move to Flagstaff Arizona to join the adidas Golden Peaks Track Club and kick off her pro career, Jadyn joins the show to recap her breakout half debut, set the tone for next month's World Championships, and share what she's most looking forward to as she takes on the world of professional road racing.

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.

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

One hundredth of a second. That was the difference between Caleb Winders winning and going home wondering what he could have done differently.A few weeks later, he ran 1:46.85.The Bloomington North senior has spent the last few years quietly building himself into one of the best 800-meter runners in the country. Now headed to UNC, Winders has combined raw speed with a blue-collar approach to training, racing, and getting better every day.In 2026, he repeated as Indiana 800m state champion and broke the state record with a 1:46.85. He won New Balance Nationals Indoor and Outdoor, adding two more national titles to his résumé. He also helped Bloomington North win its fourth Indiana 4x800-meter state championship.But the numbers only tell half the story.This season also brought Winders his biggest setback. A hamstring injury hit during the postseason, forcing him to balance his own goals with his responsibility to his team. It was a reminder that even when everything is moving forward, running can still ask you to slow down.In this conversation, we get into what it actually feels like to run 1:46, the mental battle of the 800, the race he lost by a hundredth, and the day-to-day grind behind the performances. We talk about pressure, confidence, pain, consistency, and why Winders still seems to care most about one simple thing: beating the people next to him and having fun doing it.Now, the high school chapter is over. Chapel Hill is next.Tap into the Caleb Winders Special.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following The Sunday Shakeout on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review.

"That's part of the loss. It isn't how it was. But that doesn't mean it's not worth doing." This past weekend, Kara Goucher ran her first half marathon in seven years, and her first since being diagnosed with runner's dystonia in 2022. The former pro, author of The Longest Race, cohost of Nobody Asked Us with Des & Kara, broadcaster, analyst, wife, and mom has had a long road to getting back on the run. From being told she'd never run again to breaking the tape at the City Tri Half Marathon alongside longtime friend Carrie Birth-Davis ("CB"), this is Kara's poignant race recap. She shares what it took to get to the start line, how she handled herself when things got tough with five miles to go (and really tough with three to go), and why this race was about so much more than 13.1 miles.

I'm so excited to share this conversation with Ryan Montgomery, who placed third at Western States this year in a huge breakthrough race. The top three men all broke Jim Walmsley's previous course record, with Ryan running 13:53. This was his fourth consecutive year running Western States after placing seventh twice, and to say this was a breakthrough is a bit of an understatement. Being in the top 10 at Western States is a huge deal, but being on the podium is an even bigger deal. We talk about Ryan's history with running, how he fell in love with long distances, and the journey it took to get to this level. A lot of people might not know that his first 100-mile race took him 28 hours. The process he's walked through to achieve these really high-level goals is fascinating. He is truly dedicated to the craft. We also get into the backstory of Ryan's life and so much more. He set the FKT on the Wonderland Trail in 2020, placed second at the Javelina 100 in 2021, and recently earned his MBA from Dartmouth. I don't always get off an interview feeling like I really know a person, and I really felt like I knew Ryan at the end of this conversation. I loved this one so much. Ryan is also the founder of Out Trails and shares more about that in this conversation. We'll link all of the resources we talk about in the show notes.
