Folge 133: Achtmal zwei widersprüchliche Laufregeln im CheckIm Laufsport kursieren unzählige Trainingsregeln. Doch viele davon scheinen sich zu widersprechen. Soll man langsam laufen, um schneller zu werden – oder braucht es vor allem Intervalle? Verbrennt man mehr Fett beim lockeren Dauerlauf oder mehr Kalorien beim schnellen Training? Und beginnt der Long Run nun bei 150 Minuten oder erst bei 26 Kilometern? In dieser Folge des MARATHON PODCAST spricht Andreas Butz mit Jörg Weitz über typische Widersprüche im Lauftraining. Gemeinsam gehen sie Fragen nach, die viele Läufer aus Lauftreffs, Trainingsgruppen oder aus dem Internet kennen. Unter anderem geht es um diese Themen: Macht langsames Laufen wirklich schneller? Was hilft beim Abnehmen mehr: langsam oder schnell laufen? Ab wann beginnt im Marathontraining eigentlich der Long Run? Sollte man beim Long Run nur Wasser trinken oder Gels testen? Trainiert man besser nach Puls oder nach Pace? Gibt es wirklich „leere Kilometer“ im Training? Sind mehr Kilometer entscheidend – oder die Qualität der Einheiten? Und: Wie sollte der Fuß beim Laufen wirklich aufsetzen? Eine Folge für alle, die ihr Lauftraining besser verstehen und Trainingsmythen einordnen möchten. IN DIESER FOLGE ANGESPROCHEN Der Laufcampus-Club: Jetzt Mitglied werden DER MARATHON PODCAST Ich bin Andreas Butz – dein Trainer im Ohr – und selbst über 200-facher Marathonläufer. Seit August 2023 begleite ich dich im MARATHON PODCAST mit Impulsen für mehr Erfolg und Freude beim Laufen. Vom ersten Zehner bis zum Marathon – jede Woche neu. HINTERGRUNDINFORMATIONEN

Wie du mit Garmin und der Laufcampus-Methode deine Trainingspläne präzise umsetztFolge 132: Du trainierst für einen Halbmarathon oder Marathon mit Garmin? Dann ist diese Folge für dich. Gemeinsam mit Kariem Hussein, Softwareentwickler hinter der Laufcampus Web App und selbst ambitionierter Ausdauersportler, schauen wir auf das Zusammenspiel von Garmin-Technik und strukturierter Trainingssteuerung nach der Laufcampus-Methode. Viele Läufer nutzen ihre Uhr täglich – aber längst nicht alle schöpfen das volle Potenzial aus. Wann steuerst du besser über Pace, wann über Herzfrequenz? Warum kann ein MDL bei Hitze plötzlich langsamer sein als dein LDL – und trotzdem genau richtig? Und weshalb sind Wettkampfprognosen und Trainingszustand oft mit Vorsicht zu genießen? Wir sprechen darüber, wie Garmin-Daten sinnvoll interpretiert werden, warum Algorithmen niemals das Trainingssystem ersetzen und wie die Laufcampus-Methode mit klar definierten Reiztempi und individueller Belastungsreserve Struktur ins Training bringt. Du erfährst, warum die Potenzialanalyse die Basis für realistische Wettkampfzeiten ist und wie HFmax sowie die Laufcampus-Pulszonen dein Training präzise steuern. Garmin liefert Daten. Die Laufcampus-Methode liefert Struktur. Zusammen entsteht ein Trainingssystem, das dich planvoll Richtung Ziel führt. Und natürlich sprechen wir auch über die Basics: wie du deine Garmin mit der Laufcampus Web App verbindest, wie die Synchronisation funktioniert, welche Grundeinstellungen wirklich entscheidend sind, warum Auto-Lap und Auto-Pause oft mehr stören als helfen – und wie du deine Uhr im Wettkampf sinnvoll einsetzt. Wenn du mit Garmin läufst und dein Halbmarathon- oder Marathontraining nicht dem Zufall überlassen willst, bekommst du hier die entscheidenden Impulse für mehr Sicherheit, Kontrolle und Fortschritt. Werde auch du Mitglied im Laufcampus Club TEAM LAUFCAMPUS, einem Club der die Mitglieder vernetzt und viele, viele Vorteile bringt. Join us.

In this week's Wednesday mini episode, I'm walking through Phase Two of the First Marathon Buddy program and breaking down what actually matters during weeks 10 to 15 of a 20 week marathon training plan. This phase isn't about testing your fitness or grading every long run. It's about treating those miles like practice, experimenting and refining your fueling, protecting recovery as fatigue builds, and learning how to handle the mental spiral that tends to show up in the middle of a cycle.This episode is especially helpful if you're training for your first marathon, but experienced runners will probably recognize a few familiar patterns too. We talk through cumulative fatigue, under fueling, mid cycle doubt, and the importance of zooming out when one rough workout tries to define your entire build. Phase Two is where durability and quiet confidence are built, and where consistency matters more than perfection.The First Marathon Buddy course is live!

Is marathon training meant to feel this hard?

Like finishing a marathon, successfully completing a Rubik's Cube is something that even those who have never done it understand that it's challenging, unique and worth celebrating. And the few who have done it enjoy a special type of camaraderie.To most minds, the similarities between the cube and the marathon stop there. But for this week's guest, Canadian Running's cover athlete, George Scholey, there's much more to the equation. At just 23, Scholey has already broken multiple Rubik's Cube world records, including for the most cubes solved in 24 hours. In recent years, he's begun a new pursuit: marathon running. It wasn't long before his two passions converged–in his hometown at the London Marathon, where he broke yet another record, solving 520 cubes over the course of the marathon (an average of more than 12 cubes per kilometre).On this week's episode, George joins us from his new home base in Canada, where he's working on the business of cubing as a brand manager at Rubik's global headquarters in Toronto. We talk about the parallels between cubing and training, how he fits the pieces of his full-time work and passion project together, and what the world's most popular puzzle might have to offer runners of all ability levels.Subscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcastsFollow George on Social Media @George.ScholeyThanks to this week's sponsor, CanPrevPrime your preparation, power your performance, and prioritize your post-run recovery with CanPrev.

We tease the "30-Day Window" and why a single-session distance spike is the most dangerous move a marathoner can make.Why You Should Listen: You will learn how to scientifically audit your training month to prevent overuse injuries and why structural "load tolerance" is different from aerobic fitness.Our guest this episode: Arj Thiruchelvam — performancephysique.co.ukConnect with Us: Our website: https://www.marathonjournal.comYouTube: https://youtube.com/@marathonjournalInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/runningpodcastFollowus on Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/30798607

Today's guest is in the midst of an extraordinary adventure: the Run Around Great Britain challenge, a human‑powered loop of the entire coastline. It's part endurance feat and part love letter to the country. We catch up with Megan Boxall 117 days into her journey. She talks us through the mishaps, the coastlines, the kindness of strangers, and the moments that make big adventures feel deeply human. She's well over halfway now, but still so much to explore.Pic Credit - Ross Taylorhttps://www.justgiving.com/page/megan-boxall-run-britain?newPage=trueThanks to Precision Fuel & Hydration for supporting our February competition.

In this week's episode, we start with insights on winter run training, including when to prioritize treadmill versus outdoor running, how to plan safe routes in snow and ice, what to wear, how to fuel, and other key considerations for durability in the cold, ice, snow, and wind. We then spend most of the episode with Katie's reflections on the parallels—and important differences—between labor & delivery and endurance racing, including managing uncertainty, focusing on process goals, building a flexible plan, and identifying what you actually need from your support team. Katie also shares early postpartum reflections on physical healing, sleep deprivation, motivation shifts, and how she's thinking about movement, systems, and self-compassion in this new phase of life. Throughout, we explore how endurance training mindsets translate to major life transitions, honoring different seasons, and redefining what “enough” looks like.

The last time Cam Levins took the streets of Vancouver for the Vancouver First Half, he left with a new Canadian record at the half-marathon distance. Weeks later, he kept the record-breaking streak going with a career-defining run of 2:05:36 at the 2023 Tokyo Marathon, taking a minute and a half off of his personal best and breaking his own Canadian record in the process. Fast forward three years, and Levins is returning to the playbook that served him so well in the past, as he'll toe the line this weekend at the Vancouver First Half in a final tuneup effort before a much-anticipated return to the streets of Tokyo on March 1.Now, eight years into his marathon career and nearly 14 years since his first Olympic team in London, Cam joins the show to talk about how he continues to chase excellence in the sport. We talk about his famous high-mileage training, how he's found his way back to healthy running after years battling injury, and what it all looks like while balancing life as a new father. Plus we talk about his return to the streets of Tokyo, a city that has been a common thread throughout his marathon career, and what it'll take to once again capture lightning in a bottle there in less than a month's time. Subscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcasts.Follow Cam on Social Media @CamLevins

In this week's Wednesday mini episode, I'm walking through Phase One of the First Marathon Buddy program and breaking down what actually matters during the first five weeks of a 20 week marathon training plan. This phase isn't about crushing workouts or proving anything. It's about setting expectations, learning how to read your plan without panicking, building a routine that fits your life, and dialing in effort early so training doesn't fight back later.This episode is especially helpful if you're training for your first marathon, but experienced runners will probably recognize a few familiar traps too. We talk through patience, consistency, easy effort, and how to tell the difference between normal soreness and something that needs attention. Phase One is where trust in the process is built, and where the tone for the entire training block gets set. The First Marathon Buddy course officially launches on 2/9!

Getting the worst flu of your life isn't a perfect plan for anyone's marathon race-week, but if there's any athlete who's used to less-than-ideal prep it's Hamilton's Erin Mawhinney, a nurse educator who balances training upwards of 150km each week with the demands of full-time healthcare work. At last month's Marathon Project in Arizona, Mawhinney's hopes of capitalizing on a flat, fast course against world-class competition were dashed by a nasty race-week flu that forced her to withdraw just 10K into the race. Yet for her and coach Reid Coolsaet, a 2xOlympian at the marathon himself, letting the months great training go unused was never an option.  Fast forward to January 11th and Mawhinney was back on the starting line of a marathon for the second time in under a month, this time in Texas at the Aramco Houston Marathon. Free from the illness that had derailed her previous attempt, Mawhinney would go on to run a massive 7-minute personal best of 2:29:36, finishing 5th in the women's elite field and making her the 12th fastest Canadian marathoner of all time. Today on The Shakeout Podcast, we're joined by Erin Mawhinney and Coach Reid Coolsaet to talk about the work behind the breakout performance and how they approach elite marathon training while balancing the demands of a full life outside of sport. Follow Erin @ErinMawhinney_Follow Reid @ReidCoolsaetSubscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcasts.Huge thank you to this week's sponsor Smartwool.

Anthony's running journey began back in 2007 while he was working in IT. Unhappy with his weight, he laced up for a change, and just two months later he was on the start line of his first 10K. By 2009 he'd run his first marathon, and by 2011 he was fully immersed in the world of ultrarunning.Years of racing and experimenting with his own fuelling strategies sparked a deeper interest in sports nutrition. Anthony went on to earn an Advanced Diploma in Nutrition and Weight Management, followed by a Nutrition Specialist Diploma. Combining his personal transformation with his growing expertise, he founded XMiles, a brand dedicated to helping endurance athletes fuel smarter and perform at their best.Thanks Harrier Trail Running for sponsoring this weeks interview.Thanks to Fenix Light UK, Voom & Altra 13 Valleys for supporting our January competitions.

Back in December 2025, Libby Clark stepped up to the start line of the Centurion Winter Downs 200, a 200‑mile Ultra Marathon. Only nine women stood on that start line. Nine! And Libby wasn't just there to take part… she was there to race!Seventy‑five hours, sixteen minutes, and twenty‑seven seconds later, she crossed that finish line to claim a joint second place finish with Jemma Lyons. Today, we get to dive into that journey, the highs, the lows, the hallucinations, the juggle, and the glory.
