Episode Summary:What if every mile you ran was a prayer for a sick child? In this deeply inspiring episode of the Faithful Fitness Podcast, Coach Alex sits down with ultra-endurance athlete and founder of the Praying Ninja Warrior Foundation, Nick Apicella.Together, they explore how prayer, suffering, and radical endurance can become powerful expressions of faith, love, and support for children facing life-threatening illness.

It's about sacrifice. It's about holding space for suffering. It's about carrying the weight of grief, hope, and intercession with every step.

This season has been a blend of early mornings, long runs, cross-cultural connections, and unexpected wisdom. In this recap, I reflect on the highlights and lessons of June–August 2025:Shifting Rhythms

The half marathon and 5-k event is this Sunday, August 31, 2025.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

David Gleeson spent 13 years as a competitive gymnast, reaching level 10—the highest level in the sport—and winning multiple state and regional titles. After retiring from gymnastics, he discovered a passion for running. Starting with local 5Ks and working up to half marathons, David eventually set his sights higher. This summer, he went all in on his first ultramarathon: the Finger Lakes 50K trail race in Hector, NY. In this episode, David shares the highs, lows, and lessons from his debut ultra, including muddy trails, mental battles, and the pride of crossing the finish line.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/@usagleesonChapters00:00 David's Background01:15 From Gymnastics to Running04:05 Jumping from Half Marathon to Ultra08:20 Finger Lakes 50 Course Overview10:12 Aid Stations and Race Setup13:02 Race Morning and Strategy15:02 Loop One Challenges and Mud24:43 Halfway Point and Gear Change29:49 Mental Battles on Loop Two31:26 Finding Strength in David Goggins36:15 Crossing the Finish Line38:54 Lessons in Humility48:45 Gratitude for Volunteers53:25 Training, Setbacks, and Wisdom Teeth1:13:19 Future Races and Next GoalsThe Co-Movement Gym Podcast is supported by Native Path Supplements and Lombardi Chiropractic.

Take a run with The Human Potential Running Series podcast. For Episode 69, HPRS Race Director John Lacroix and co-hosts Thomas Stott and Megan Storms discuss the word of doom, "Injuries." Injuries are never on the training plan, but every runner eventually faces them. What matters most is how you respond in the first few minutes, the first few days, and the weeks that follow. In this episode, we walk through the full arc of dealing with an injury, from that initial “uh-oh” moment to your first cautious steps back on the trail. Topics include: Triage on the Spot: How to tell if it's a soft-tissue tweak or a hospital trip. Mindset Matters: Why your brain chemistry shifts in the first five minutes, and how to ground yourself in what to do now. Training Setback → Opportunity: Reframing your outlook, setting up support, and dropping the unnecessary stress of “racing through it.” The Real Return-to-Run Checklist: It's not just about time. We dig into pain-free walking, stairs, range of motion, strength, eccentric control, and even hopping tests before lacing up again. Protocols that Work: Run-walk reintroductions, flat terrain starts, and why consistency still trumps intensity. Plus, surprising strategies like gentle uphills (for everyone except Achilles injuries). The Nintendo Reset Button: Use downtime to build where you've been weak—slower paces, mobility, breathwork, hydration, connective tissue health. Healing on Nature's Timeline: Understanding the cellular phases of repair—inflammatory (days), proliferation (weeks), remodeling (months)—so you can respect the process instead of fighting it. Whether you're sidelined today or just want tools for the future, this episode is a guide to resilience, patience, and coming back stronger.

In this episode, I sit down with the amazing Tara Welling — a former professional runner who raced for Nike and Skechers — to hear her powerful story of grit, growth, and finding joy again in the sport she loves.Tara takes us back to her first miles in elementary school, through her rise to the professional circuit, and into the realities most people never see — the burnout, the pressure, and the struggles with body image that came with competing at the highest level. She shares how stepping away from the sport allowed her to rebuild a healthier relationship with running, one rooted in balance, joy, and self-respect.We also talk about what it's like to run during pregnancy, the transition into motherhood, and how she's now pouring her experience into coaching. Through her work with RunDoyen, Tara helps runners of all abilities tap into personalized training, the right mindset, and the power of community support.This conversation will remind you that running is not just about chasing times — it's about chasing what lights you up inside. Whether you're chasing a PR or simply trying to fall in love with running again, Tara's story will leave you inspired to run your own race.Tara Welling is a former professional runner for Nike and Skechers, a 2x National Champion in the Half Marathon and 15k, and a 4x U.S. Olympic Trials Qualifier (2012 – 10k & 5k track, 2016 – 10k & 5k track, 2020 – marathon, 2024 – marathon).Now a coach with RunDoyen and a mom of two, Tara combines her elite-level experience with a personalized, supportive approach to help runners of all levels reach their goals — whether that's chasing a PR, building consistency, or finding joy in the process.If you want to connect with her, you can find her at the links below!tara.erdmann11@gmail.comhttps://www.rundoyen.com/https://www.instagram.com/tara_welling/00:21 Tara's Early Running Journey02:41 Choosing Running Over Soccer05:54 College Running Experience07:11 Body Image and Nutrition in Running12:20 Training and Motherhood19:16 Professional Running Career22:02 Burnout and Rediscovering Joy in Running26:23 Training with Sketchers28:57 Finding Joy in Running29:44 Running During Pregnancy33:23 Balancing Motherhood and Running33:42 Olympic Trials Experience40:34 Coaching Philosophy and Approach43:41 Personalized Training PlansJoin the Real Life Runners Team today! https://www.realliferunners.com/teamJoin the Team! --> https://www.realliferunners.com/team Thanks for Listening!!Be sure to hit FOLLOW on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your favorite podcast player Leave a review on Apple Podcasts.

I ran a half marathon! I wanted to give some insight on how I trained and prepped for my most recent race, the Nike After Dark Half Marathon! It was an evening race, which isn't the norm, so take that into consideration. I also wanted to take this opportunity to dive into why I am breaking up with distance training and the learning opportunity it presented me with. Podcast Overview: - my training for a half marathon - my nutrition for a half marathon - race day specifics - why I am breaking up with distance training*if I run a race, I will not be training for it! **if I go for a random long run - it will not be because I am prepared for it!

Eating healthy doesn't have to be complicated. For the past couple of years, I've kept my diet simple by cycling through almost the same meals every week. In this episode, I break down what I'm eating right now as I train for my Spartan 21k, why this approach keeps me feeling strong and focused, and how keeping it simple has been the key to building consistency without overthinking every bite.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

Pierce Showe is redefining what consistency, conviction, and calling look like in the world of ultra-endurance running.He just broke the Guinness World Record for most consecutive half marathons on a treadmill—running 13.1 miles every single day for 125 days straight—and he's here to talk about what it took, and why it mattered.As a running coach and motivational content creator, Pierce is on a mission that's as physical as it is spiritual.Driven by faith, discipline, and a deep sense of purpose, he's showing the world that you don't need a podium to be powerful, you just need a reason that moves you.But let's be clear: Pierce has landed on those podiums, too.His ultra-running resume speaks volumes: 1st place at the Miami 100 (100-mile race) in 21:23:00 (2024); 1st place at the Coyote Trail Run (50-mile trail race) in 9:54:59 (2023); 3rd place at the Blazin' Summer Sufferfest (54 km) in 6:12:06 (2024).His personal records are strong: 21:23:00 for 100 miles; 10:41:48 for 100k; and 9:54:59 for 50 miles.From battling dark mental stretches mid-race to climbing onto a treadmill before dawn, Pierce is here to share what keeps him grounded, what fuels his discipline, and how he's turning mileage into meaning.From the trail to the screen, Pierce isn't just building endurance, he's looking to build impact.And through every step, he proves that transformation doesn't start with the legs.It starts with belief.In today's conversation, Pierce takes me through this wild endeavor and adventure, the crazy stories that come with breaking a world record, what comes next for him, why he wears a "Jesus is King" shirt, the power of consistency, and lessons he's learned along the way.Tap into the Pierce Showe Special.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!I would also appreciate it if you share it with your friend who you think will benefit from it.Comment the word “PODCAST” below and I'll DM you a link to listen.If this episode blesses you, please share it with a friend!S H O W N O T E S-The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-BUY MERCH BEFORE IT'S GONE: https://shop.therunningeffect.run-Our Website: https://therunningeffect.run-THE PODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClLcLIDAqmJBTHeyWJx_wFQ-My Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therunningeffect/?hl=en-Take our podcast survey: https://tinyurl.com/3ua62ffz

Take a run with The Human Potential Running Series podcast. In this deeply personal Episode 67, HPRS Race Director John Lacroix shares a story he's never told publicly, until now. After a lifetime of masking and adapting to neurotypical expectations, John opens up about his recent diagnoses of ADHD (Combined Type) and Autism (Level 1). This isn't just a story about neurodivergence; it's a reckoning with leadership, identity, and the cost of pretending to be someone you're not. You'll hear how John's neurodivergence has shaped everything from race-day logistics to how he handles noise, social interaction, and emotional bandwidth. He talks candidly about Autistic Burnout and the hidden work of masking. This episode is a call to unmask; not just for him, but for all of us. It's an invitation to build a trail community where everyone belongs, regardless of how they blend in. If you've ever felt “too much” or “not enough”… this one's for you. Topics include: What it means to be neurodivergent in leadership ADHD and Autism through a personal lens The invisible cost of masking in trail culture How HPRS is evolving to reflect sustainable leadership The Community Roundtable (CRT) and a shared vision for the future

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'm so thankful to have this podcast as a resource so that I can continue to train in an intelligent way, with a lower chance of injury. In the fall, I am planning to run my second half marathon. I am so excited to start my Half Marathon training plan from The Planted Runner in a few weeks.

Pulling up to this episode is like pulling up to your local library... it's got a little bit of everything in it, except for hopefully those pesky midwestern ticks. The episode opens with the usual intro banter, where Des characterizes Kara as being in "librarian mode." If Kara is the librarian, then that makes Des the person who is relentlessly trying to make you laugh in there. Thus, we are off to a good start riffing about summers in the midwest, travel, and camps.  Kara talks about winning an Emmy(!) and about Colt graduating from 8th grade and being on the precipice of both driving and high school. Des shares about her prep for the upcoming Western States training camp. Is she ready to enter the shallower end of one of the most historic 100-milers in the world? Plus, they bond over their mutual hatred of ticks before turning to discuss their impressions of season one for Grand Slam Track (GST). What do they think so far? Where could it be improved? Will it move the needle on interest in our sport? Then, they react to a RW article on influencers and phones in races. Should they be allowed? Where is the line to be drawn? Is it good for the sport or just annoying? Finally, they end with a Lagoon Sleep top 5 where Des questions her chinchilla ways as they both share uplifting moments from their weeks.  If you love the pod, support our partners and the pod in the following ways...

Alex Hutchinson is the author of the New York Times bestseller 'Endure' and is a science journalist and Outside magazine's longtime Sweat Science columnist. He has a PhD in Physics from Cambridge University and a MS in Journalism from Columbia. He was a long-distance runner for the Canadian national team and lives in Toronto. His new book, The Explorer's Gene, refutes the myth that the age of exploration is dead. The itch to discover new things persists in all of us, expressed not just on the slopes of Everest but in the ways we work, play, live, and run.
