This week's show brought to you by: Ketone-IQ You may have read a lot the last few years about the benefits of ketones for endurance performance, such as mitochondrial efficiency and glycogen sparing. Your body uses ketones for energy typically during fasting, long periods of exercise, or when you don't have as many carbohydrates. The problem is that you typically need to severely reduce your carbohydrate intake in order to take advantage of them, which is difficult to sustain, even for the most dedicated runner. But, thanks to Ketone-IQ you quickly deliver ketones to your bloodstream, putting you into ketosis within minutes without the need to fast, restrict calories or carbs, or exercise away your glycogen stores. And the academic literature on the effectiveness of ketones for running performance is overwhelming.  For example, a 2021 study demonstrated that the ingestion of ketones improved mitochondrial efficiency by 7% and 2019 study concluded that using ketones significantly enhanced endurance performance while minimizing overtraining. If you want to see more of the research, head to ketone.com/RTTT Plus, for a limited time you can save 30% off your first subscription order & receive a free six pack of Ketone-IQ by going ketone.com/RTTT. That's K-E-T-O-N-E dot com slash RTTT. MAS NAD+ for Runners Did you know that by Age 40, your NAD+ levels can be half of what they were at 20? And they only go downhill from there. This is important because lower NAD+ levels have been shown in research to impact some of the hallmarks of aging such as reduced muscle strength, lower mitochondrial performance and overall energy. But, just because NAD+ levels decline with age doesn't mean you have to accept it. NAD+ from MAS Edge is a groundbreaking formula that can increase your NAD+ levels by 67%. Their unique formula enhances absorption by 71% and increases uptake and utilization in the body by 167% compared to generic NAD+ supplements. This means you can slow muscle loss, improve recovery, increase your energy levels, and fight aging at the cellular level. You can check out the results yourself at masedge.com/nad. Plus, runnersconnect fans will automatically save 20% on any purchase. If you're ready to fight all the typical signs of aging and feel a decade younger, this is no-brainer.

The race has been run! Take a journey through how it went with Adam as he recalls not just the race itself, but the full weekend. A 2:41:xx for 4th place Masters 40-45 with a wild ride and tough finish, but of course the PEOPLE were front and center over any PERFORMANCE.

In this episode of the Movement Logic Podcast, Laurel shares six universal takeaways from training for and running her first marathon—and how they apply to any long term, challenging, exercise-related goal. Whether your goal is to build strength, increase stamina, or just feel more capable in your daily life, this episode explores fundamental training principles, helpful mindset coaching, and empowering tips to help you reach a long-term, physically demanding goal.Rather than focusing on the details of marathon training, Laurel distills what she learned about goal-setting, accountability, program design, recovery, and the fatigue that can sometimes hide progress. She also calls out the overwhelming and often contradictory fitness advice targeted at women, especially during perimenopause and menopause, and urges a more individualized and practical approach to training.Sign up for our Bone Density Mini Course: Barbell 101!Follow us on Instagram @movementlogictutorials00:58 Why I trained for a marathon and what I learned04:17 Takeaway #1: Have a realistic, measurable goal13:34 Takeaway #2: Programming is a hypothesis21:05 Takeaway #3: Accountability helps you follow through27:50 Takeaway #4: Fatigue can mask your progress35:45 Takeaway #5: Recovery reveals your fitness42:00 Takeaway #6: Strength supports everythingRESOURCESEpisode 9: What Are the Best Exercises for Strength?Episode 85: Inbetweenie - Boosting Recovery: What Really WorksEpisode 70: Inbetweenie - Do you need a deload week?Episode 90: Capacities for Longevity Part 1: StrengthEpisode 94: Capacities for Longevity Part 2: PowerEpisode 98: Capacities for Longevity Part 3: Cardio

. Best workouts to improve at the marathon distanceWhether you're a seasoned runner or just starting your marathon journey, these workouts will enhance your endurance, speed, and overall race strategy. First up, the cornerstone of marathon training: the long run. This workout is crucial for building endurance and mimicking race day conditions.Tips for Effective Long Runs:Frequency: Aim for one long run per week, gradually increasing the distance. Start with distances you're comfortable with and add about 10% each week.Pacing: Keep the pace comfortable—around 30 to 90 seconds slower than your goal marathon pace.Nutrition: Experiment with fueling strategies during your long runs to find out what works for you.Next, we have tempo runs, an essential workout for improving your lactate threshold, which is critical for longer races like the marathon.How to Execute a Tempo Run:Warm-Up: Start with a 10-15 minute easy jog to get your legs warmed up.Tempo Pace: Then, increase to a challenging pace that you can maintain for 20-40 minutes—usually around 10-20 seconds per mile slower than your 10K pace.Cooldown: Finish with a 10-15 minute easy jog to cool down.Now, let's talk about interval training, which is fantastic for building speed and adding variety to your workouts.Recommended Interval Workout:Warm-Up: Begin with a gentle jog for 10-15 minutes.Intervals: Choose a distance around 400m or 800m. Run the interval at a pace you could hold for a 5K, and then rest for an equal amount of time.Reps: Aim for 4 to 8 repeats based on your fitness level.Cooldown: Finish with a light jog or walk for about 10 minutes.Interval training not only improves your speed but also builds mental toughness. While it might seem counterintuitive, recovery runs are just as vital for improving at the marathon distance. These are slower-paced runs aimed at helping you recover while still logging miles.Key Points for Recovery Runs:Pacing: Keep them at a conversational pace, generally 1-2 minutes slower than your marathon pace.Duration: These runs can range from 30 minutes to an hour, depending on your weekly mileage and how you feel.If you enjoyed today's episode, don't forget to subscribe, rate, and share! Join us next week when we discuss nutrition strategies to fuel your marathon training. Happy running, and remember, every mile counts!

What are the essential NON-running elements to the marathon? Today we'll tackle a handful of tips that are a bit more personal, but can have guidelines that are helpful.

This is important because lower NAD+ levels have been shown in research to impact some of the hallmarks of aging such as reduced muscle strength, lower mitochondrial performance and overall energy. But, just because NAD+ levels decline with age doesn't mean you have to accept it. NAD+ from MAS Edge is a groundbreaking formula that can increase your NAD+ levels by 67%. Their unique formula enhances absorption by 71% and increases uptake and utilization in the body by 167% compared to generic NAD+ supplements. This means you can slow muscle loss, improve recovery, increase your energy levels, and fight aging at the cellular level. You can check out the results yourself at masedge.com/nad. Plus, runnersconnect fans will automatically save 20% on any purchase. If you're ready to fight all the typical signs of aging and feel a decade younger, this is no-brainer.

What is the long run and how do we use it as the most important day of the week (usually)? The long run sounds simple and it is, but it can be used differently through different phases of training. It's also the best way to simulate long fatiguing efforts and a good day to practice with your nutrition and equipment. Adam gives his top five tips and benefits to have a successful long run feed your training well!

We are so thrilled to welcome Sari Winick, a seasoned masters marathoner and triathlete, to the podcast, who shares how she balanced a breast cancer diagnosis with training for the 2025 London Marathon. Sari, 53, has been working with us for several years.

Just two days after her double mastectomy, Sari, spoken like a true runner, reached out to us and said, “I'm still planning on running the TCS London Marathon. All of my doctors said it was possible. It won't be a PR but hopefully a great goal at the end of this process.”In this episode, Sari shares how she navigated surgery, chemo, and marathon training to achieve her goal-spoiled alert-she crossed the London finish line in 4:59.We are so grateful to Sari for sharing her inspiring story!

Just about every runner has made the mistake of going too fast on a recovery run and paid the price. There's a lot of things that we know we should do as runners and still get them wrong.  Coach Jeff brings his years of coaching experience to the show to share why runners make these 5 easy to fix mistakes: Overdoing recovery runs Ineffective strength training Rationalizing not having enough time Running through injury Eating the wrong fuel before and after training You might think this list looks basic, and you'd be right. Even veteran runners screw up the easy stuff sometimes and fixing them can help you to make massive performance gains. Marathon training is hard, so don't screw up the easy stuff.  Training Pace Calculator: https://runnersconnect.net/long-and-easy-run-pace/ Connect, Comment, Community Follow RunnersConnect on Instagram Join the Elite Treatment where you get first dibs on everything RTTT each month!

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. But MAS Iron has found a way to combat these absorption issues to ensure you can get the iron you need for health and performance. By combining the most efficiently absorbed form of elemental iron with clinically proven ingredients to aid in absorption, MAS Iron performs like no other iron product on the market. In fact, clinical research has shown the combination of ingredients in MAS Iron can quadruple absorption and increase bioavailability by 30%, all while reducing GI issues by 50%.

Is training for a marathon harmful to the body? As a fitness coach and someone just days away from running my first marathon, I've asked myself this question—and in this episode, I unpack the answer. You'll hear my honest take on running, injury, recovery, and mindset, including how a setback late in training challenged me physically and mentally.

In this personal episode, I take you behind the scenes of my Boston Marathon qualifying journey and reveal the unexpected parallels I've discovered between athletic training and healing our relationship with food. I share how shifting from bracing against discomfort to opening up to possibility has transformed not just my running performance, but offers a powerful framework for approaching food challenges.You'll hear about the crucial role of community support, the mindset shifts that create breakthrough moments, and how embracing the process rather than fixating on outcomes creates freedom in both running and eating. Whether you're struggling with binge eating or simply seeking a new perspective on healing, this episode offers practical wisdom about transformation that applies far beyond the marathon course.Previous Episodes Mentioned:Co-RegulationMarathon Recap & Lessons LearnedExperiences Are More Important Than ResultsSubscribe to The Peaceful Eater on Substack for weekly insights, resources and support for your journey with food.
