In this episode, Matthew Kleinosky sits down with legendary coach and running personality Duane “Peanut” Harms, whose remarkable journey spans more than five decades in the sport. From discovering running almost by accident as a high school baseball player to coaching national teams, helping launch HOKA, and shaping generations of athletes, Peanut shares stories that are equal parts inspiring, hilarious, and unforgettable.Memorable Quotes“The path to success was not thinking about the immensity of the task. It was just to embark.”“The greatest honor is when kids continue to run after they leave your program.”“You coach the kids you get.”“There might be part-time pay, but there is no part-time coaching.”“I know I've impacted a lot of people positively, and hopefully they pass that along.”Key TakeawaysMentorship can completely alter the trajectory of a young person's life.Great coaching is about developing people, not simply producing results.Lifelong participation matters more than short-term success.Multi-sport experiences create stronger athletes and more well-rounded people.Running communities thrive when competition and fun coexist.Success often begins by simply taking the first step and getting started.Listen & SubscribeIf you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share the podcast with fellow runners and fans of running history.Running in the '70s with Matthew Kleinosky explores the stories, people, and culture that helped shape the running boom and continue to inspire runners today.

These are the times! Hans Troyer joins us in the studio for his first-ever (longer form) appearance on the Singletrack Podcast. Hans has had an exciting recent build to Western States, including a win at the Twisted Fork 30K and a training camp in Flagstaff with the Hoka team. Beyond that, on the biggest stages of the sport, he is on a roll demonstrating his greatness with a course record victory at the Black Canyon 100K back in February and an impressive win at JFK late last year. Hans took 8th place at his debut here last June, but expectations are higher for his return. Many consider him one of the favorites for the win here and part of the cohort of superstars that could break the fabled 14-hour barrier on the course. Partners:Precision Fuel and Hydration - use code SINGLETRACK at checkout for 15% off your next orderNorda - check out the 005: the lightest, fastest, most stable trail racing shoe ever madeRaide - Making equipment for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains Support the show

Deze aflevering duiken we in de bijzondere wereld van de grondstoffenmarkt. En de wilde bewegingen die handelaren maken. ING ziet de vraag naar complexe derivatenconstructies exploderen, nu bedrijven worstelen met margestortingen en extreme prijsschommelingen. We proberen in Jip & Janneke taal te kijken hoe ING precies scoort. Wat het betekent voor het aandeel. En: klan ING nóg meer geld verdienen met deze onrust? Ook hebben we het over SK Hynix. De maker van geheugenchips was even Samsung voorbij als meest waardevolle beursbedrijf van Zuid-Korea! Best knap, als je je bedenkt dat het bedrijf eerder nog bijna failliet ging. Verder staan we uitgebreid stil bij het overlijden van Alan Greenspan. De voormalig Fed-voorzitter die maar liefst 100 jaar is geworden. Je hoort waarom hij zo bejubeld werd, maar ook waardoor hij (aan het einde van zijn termijn) werd beschuldigd van de grootste financiële crisis ooit. Verder in dit beurstheater: Aalberts succesvol terug in de AEX Easyjet wijst overnamebod drie keer op rij af Aandeel van Alphabet dondert in elkaar SpaceX wordt wéér gedumpt op de beurs Keir Starmer stopt als premier, maar markten rustig Baas Nike gelooft in Nike, terwijl de rest dat niet echt doet Warren Buffett's lievelingetje ligt overhoop met de Amerikaanse belastingdienst Te gast: Stan Westerterp van Bond Capital Partners BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Je hoort hem ook in de BNR-podcast Moerdijk: dorp van de rekening. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Francesco Puppi is a professional trail runner for Hoka based outside of Lake Como, Italy. For many fans of the sport, his debut at the 100-mile distance and Western States has been long-anticipated. It's finally here and we cover the usual topics around preparation, mentality, and racing strategy for the current moment, but I also take the opportunity to ask him about current anti-doping efforts in the sport, European vs American trail media, and lessons learned from other superstars in our sport. Partners:Precision Fuel and Hydration - use code SINGLETRACK at checkout for 15% off your next orderNorda - check out the 005: the lightest, fastest, most stable trail racing shoe ever madeRaide - Making equipment for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains Janji - running gear that goes the distanceKodiak Cakes - my favorite oatmeal and pancakes Support the show

She also shares a much more encouraging injury update and explains why pelvic floor therapy has been helpful in her recovery journey. Meanwhile, Karen is inching ever closer to being fully healthy again, while Megan is deep in the trenches of moving.The Chicks also break down a few fun questions: Is running a half marathon at a bachelorette party an iconic idea or a friendship-ending one?

In this conversation, he shares how a career built around performance eventually evolved into something much bigger: community, connection, and learning to define success on his own terms.Tim reflects on his transition from road marathoning to trail running, his years with Nike Trail, HOKA, and Craft, and the lessons learned from competing at the highest levels of the sport. The conversation also dives deep into confidence versus courage, the power of self-belief, and what it took to finally bring his long-time dream of Mammoth Trail Fest to life.Throughout the episode, Tim offers a refreshing perspective on reinvention, entrepreneurship, and why betting on yourself is often the hardest—and most rewarding—decision you'll ever make.In This EpisodeTransitioning from marathon running to trail runningThe early days of Nike Trail and racing in EuropeConfidence vs. courage and finding self-beliefWhy athletes need an identity beyond performanceBuilding Mammoth Trail Fest from an idea into realityLessons learned from Nike, HOKA, and CraftThe future of trail running and protecting its cultureCommunity, connection, and creating opportunities for othersThis episode is a reminder that growth rarely comes from playing it safe.

Today, we’re talking shoes. Specifically, the best shoes for you if you have chronic dizziness or balance problems. (If you caught my viral Hoka video back in April, you already know I have thoughts.) But I need you to know this… it was never really about Hoka. It’s about understanding what’s actually going on with your shoes when you have a vestibular disorder and why that matters more than any brand name ever will. I'm breaking down the anatomy of a shoe (from toe box to heel drop) so you can stop Googling “best shoe for dizziness” and just know what to look for. Because the best shoe is the one that works for your feet, your symptoms, and your life. Full stop. In this episode, we'll dig into: The big takeaway from my viral Hokas video Why there’s no single “best shoe” for vestibular disorders The key parts of shoe anatomy every vestibular warrior should know How conditions like peripheral neuropathy, plantar fasciitis, or a toe fusion change what YOU need in a shoe The best places to shop for shoes when you have a vestibular disorder Why heel-to-toe walking matters for fall prevention Your shoes are touching the ground so YOU don’t have to think about it, so let’s make sure they’re actually working how they need to for you.

In this annual Western States preview episode, Corinne Shalvoy, Graham Shalvoy, and Russell Ditsworth shine a spotlight on the runners who earned their place in the 2026 Western States Endurance Run outside of the Golden Ticket Series and returning Top 10 finishers.The trio dives into the staggering numbers behind the Western States lottery, including over 11,000 entrants and nearly 100,000 lottery tickets, while discussing what it realistically takes to gain entry into one of trail running's most coveted races. They explore the race's demographics, including a median age of 47 and the stories behind athletes who waited nearly a decade for their opportunity.Featured runners include:Luke Jay John Kelly Zachary GarnerJustin GrunewaldCroom BeattySarah OstaszewskiJupiter Carera CasasIsaac FrankCoree WolteringJeff BrowningJoe CorcioneTommie RunzThe hosts also discuss:The competitiveness of the 2026 Western States fieldBroken Arrow Skyrace versus Western States talent depthThe Silver Legend program and this year's recipient, Stephanie Irving, founder of Wild Woman Trail Runs and a pioneer in creating opportunities for women in trail runningWestern States records, age-group performances, and predictions for the men's and women's racesThe episode concludes with a special interview featuring Tommie Runz, who shares his journey from marathon running to trail ultras, what Western States has meant to him since the beginning of his running career, and how earning a HOKA-sponsored entry represents a meaningful step toward greater diversity and representation in trail running.Tommie also issues an open invitation to the community: if you're in Auburn when he approaches the finish line, join him for the final mile into Placer High School and celebrate the power of community that makes trail running special.Follow the show and leave us a review!Follow Tommie Runz

The Tom Dupree Show  |  Podcast Show Notes The Nike Cautionary Tale: What Happens When Leadership Loses Touch With Its Customers The Tom Dupree Show  |  Dupree Financial Group  |  dupreefinancial.com  |  859-233-0400 Episode Description Nike spent decades building one of the most recognized brands on the planet — the Swoosh, the Air Jordan, high-heat basketball shoes that consumers lined up for, and a presence in every major sporting goods retailer in the world. Then, in 2020, the company handed its future to a CEO who believed physical retail was a dying model, and what followed became a study in how quickly a great company can lose its way. Tom Dupree and analyst Michael Dawahare walk through the full arc of Nike’s rise and decline — from its origins in performance athletics to a stock that traded at $180 and has since fallen to around $44. They examine the strategic decisions that caused the damage, the board failures that let it compound, and what retirement investors can take directly from the story. “You cannot put your own lenses on the lenses of your customer — you have to ask how they see the world, not how you see it.” Topics Covered • How Nike’s origins in performance athletics shaped the brand — and why that foundation was eventually abandoned • The 2020 appointment of CEO John Donahoe and the pivot toward a direct-to-consumer distribution model • Why walking away from wholesale partners like Foot Locker and specialty running stores was a catastrophic miscalculation • How competitors — HOKA, On Cloud, New Balance, ASICS, and Brooks — filled the shelf space Nike gave away • The role of groupthink and board failure in allowing the strategy to continue long after warning signs appeared • The Jordan Brand challenge: what happens when a generational endorsement ages out with no succession plan • Nike’s attempted course correction, the arrival of new CEO Elliott Hill, and why recovery is proving harder than expected • The parallel between Nike’s story and retirement portfolio management: proven strategy, fundamentals, and the danger of chasing new models Key Takeaways • Know what your portfolio is actually built on. The moment Nike shifted focus from technical performance products, competitors filled the gap. The same risk applies when an investment strategy drifts from its core principles. • Never surrender your shelf space. Giving up distribution — or abandoning a proven income strategy during volatility — is almost impossible to reverse. Re-entry is rarely seamless. • Leadership bias is one of the most expensive mistakes in business. Donahoe was an outstanding digital executive who ran a physical consumer company through a digital lens. Bias in a CEO — or a portfolio manager — costs real money. • Boards exist to prevent catastrophic decisions. Most don’t. Nike’s board approved a strategy that effectively fired its wholesale customer base. Institutional oversight is only as good as the willingness to ask uncomfortable questions. • Consumer loyalty, once transferred, is remarkably sticky. Runners who switched to HOKA or On Cloud did not come back. When a customer finds something they prefer, you may have lost them for good. • Recovery takes far longer than the damage itself. Nearly two years into Elliott Hill’s tenure, Nike still cannot get traction. A few years of bad decisions can take a decade to undo — in business and in retirement portfolios. • Proven strategies deserve skepticism about replacement, not abandonment. When a new model sounds compelling, always ask: What is the process? Has it been tested? And who benefits when you believe in it?

The 2026 London Marathon saw new world record times set in both the men's and women's events. Eyes weren't just on the winning athletes but also on the Adidas trainers they were wearing. So what goes into designing and making a pair of trainers and why have some of them become so expensive to buy? Global sales for trainers are in the tens of billions of dollars with hundreds of new styles being produced every year. How does the industry keep up with demand and stay on trend? Giant companies like Nike and Adidas, who dominated the industry for decades, can no longer take anything for granted. Newer brands like On and Hoka have managed to break through and are shaking things up. How have they managed to do it? Evan Davis gets some insights and answers from people who work in the industry.Guests: Tony Evans: Managing Director of Jacobson Group Tom Astrella: Co-founder The Footsoldiers Wayne Edy: Founder and CEO of Inov8Presenter: Evan Davis Producer: Sally Abrahams & Nick Holland Sounds: Dave O'Neill and Frank McWeeny Editor: Sam Bonham

In today's episode, Megan recaps her dramatic drop in distance from the marathon all the way down to the mile, where she raced to a 4:37 finish and second place. She breaks down the race, reflects on the experience, and looks ahead to her upcoming half marathon.Rachel's injury saga continues as she shares the latest frustrations in her search for answers, including MRI scheduling mishaps and countless hours spent on the phone trying to figure out her diagnosis and recovery plan. Meanwhile, Karen received some encouraging news: her injury is a sprain rather than a bone injury. She also gives an update on her apartment hunt as she prepares to move to a new spot in Chicago.The Chicks continue highlighting women who have achieved the Olympic Marathon Trials standard and dive into thoughts surrounding fueling for distance runners.Plus: What is the most unhinged thing the Chicks have done in the name of running data?_________________Find this week's shoe recs here:Megan: Brooks Adrenaline GTS 25Karen: HOKA Clifton L SuedeRachel: Nike Pegasus Trail 5_________________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORZappos is an online retail destination for the best in footwear, offering the selection and expertise runners need to take on each day with confidence.

Braelyn Combe listed five girls she expected to contend with at Festival of Miles. Chiara Dailey's name wasn't one of them.That detail sits right at the center of this conversation: not as a grudge, but as fuel. Chiara has been one of the best prep distance runners in the country for four straight years: three consecutive California state cross country titles, a sub-4:40 mile PR, four straight national qualifications. She'll be the first to tell you she hasn't had that race yet. The one that changes the conversation. June 4th is where she's been pointing all spring.This episode goes inside what that actually looks like. She talks about working this season with Eric Avila (a former professional runner and longtime family friend) who shifted the texture of her training: more threshold, consistent lifting,a real focus on form she'd quietly been embarrassed about for three years.She describes her hardest workout of the spring, why she doesn't learn her sessions until after her warmup, and how she's been training her kick at every smaller meet in the postseason—going out in 32 and closing in 31.She also goes deep on what winning actually means to her. Her moonshot goal for FOM is sub-4:30 (nine seconds faster than her current PR) and she explains, calmly and without hesitation, why she'd rather win in 4:40 than run 4:29 and finish second. She signs off with a direct message to Braelyn: "I'll see you in Fresno and I'll see you in St. Louis."She's been around. She's done being overlooked.Tap into the Chiara Dailey Special.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review! S H O W  N O T E S  -The Run Down By The Running Effect (our new newsletter!): https://tinyurl.com/mr36s9rs-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/3ua62ffzBehind the scenes of The Running Effect: https://youtube.com/@dominicschlueter?si=PM9FjPc92eFUFEZLInstagram: @chiaradailey

Maren Hamilton ran global social at The North Face — building and executing a strategy for 5.5 million followers, integrating athletes and creators, and navigating every platform shift from the follow graph to the discovery graph. Then she left to help build Popfly, the creator platform built specifically for the outdoor industry. In this conversation, Maren shares the playbook she developed at TNF for running brand social at scale, including how to say no to the hundreds of internal requests that flood every social team, why the outdoor buying journey is fundamentally different from fashion and beauty, and what brands still get wrong about TikTok, Threads, and Facebook. Plus: Why Head of Social to CMO is now a real career path, what makes a creator pitch actually land with a brand, and the Adidas sub-two-hour marathon moment that might be the greatest brand activation of the decade.
