AFB, Anna, and Phred sit down with bestselling author Martin Dugard to talk about his new book The Long Run: Steve Prefontaine, Frank Shorter, Joan Benoit, Greta Waitz, and the Decade That Made the Marathon Cool.  The conversation explores the 1970s running boom, the influence of legends like Steve Prefontaine, Frank Shorter, Joan Benoit Samuelson, and Grete Waitz, and how modern marathon science, shoes, and fueling strategies have transformed the sport—along with a few detours into ultrarunning, trail racing, and the future of endurance events. We also hit on Greece, the Royal Family, and the 1972 Olympics. If you are a runner, this book ties together all of the sport's best stories.  What was it like to work with Bill O'Reilly? Of course this being Cultra, the conversation eventually wanders into trail running and ultras. Are there too many races? Are 200-milers stealing runners from traditional 100s? And how hard is it to actually staff and direct one of these things? This is a great book, and this episode ain't too bad either.

IN this episode I spoke with Martin Dugard about his latest book "The Long Run". A dramatic narrative telling the story behind the running and marathon boom of the 1970s and early 1980s, featuring the stories of Steve Prefontaine, Frank Shorter, Joan Benoit Samuelson, Grete Waitz, and many others, and how a generation of runners turned a formerly obscure distance into a national obsession

#189 - Martin Dugard - The Long Run | How a Decade Made Marathons Cool & Changed the World Forever

JOIN MY TEAM & SUPPORT A GREAT CAUSE: https://www.wingsforlifeworldrun.com/en/teams/5Nrld5?join=1 Martin Dugard has spent his whole life at the intersection of running and history, and The Long Run is where they finally collide.Dugard is a #1 New York Times bestselling author with over 12 million copies sold, a three-time Raid Gauloises adventure racer, a co-holder of the global circumnavigation speed record, and a cross country coach who has built California state championship programs from scratch over two decades. And he's earned every word of this book.In the 1970s, running was a fringe sport. What happened in between is one of the greatest untold stories in sports history, and Dugard just wrote the book on it. The Long Run drops April 14, and he joins the show to break down exactly how Frank Shorter's 1972 Olympic gold, Steve Prefontaine's counterculture fire, Joan Benoit Samuelson's 1984 Olympic breakthrough, and Grete Waitz's nine New York City Marathon victories turned a niche obsession into a global movement.But this isn't just a history lesson. He gets into the coaching philosophy behind the 1970s greats, what today's running boom has in common with the first one, and why the athletes who built this sport still don't get the credit they deserve.Tap into the Martin Dugard Special.If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and giving us a five-star review!

In his newest book, The Long Run: Steve Prefontaine, Frank Shorter, Joan Benoit, Grete Waitz, and the Decade That Made the Marathon Cool, U.S. Track & Field Foundation board member, life-long runner, high school track coach, and bestselling author Martin Dugard takes us through the historical moments that sparked the running boom across America, including Frank Shorter's Olympic marathon win in 1972, Steve Prefontaine's career that ended too soon—and not to mention Greta Waitz and Joan Benoit, both with their own historic marathon wins that inspired women all over.  Along the way, Dugard shares the history of the sport—from the myth that originated the modern marathon, to how it became 26.2 miles (and how the British Royal family had a hand in it), how the sport saved NYC from bankruptcy, and more! Martin's perspective and research into the race we love is awe inspiring and worth a read (or listen if you're an Audible fan like me).

Built Not Born Podcast: Martin Dugard on Taking Midway, Epic History, and the Courage That Changed the World

“To change your future, you've got to sit down and do something that's going to terrify you a little bit.”  Success rarely begins with certainty—it often starts with confusion, discomfort, and a stubborn refusal to settle. This episode unpacks the messy, glorious reality of becoming a world-class writer: ignoring conventional advice, doing hard things every day, and trusting your instincts even when no one else does. The key? Start small, stay grateful, and keep swinging.  Martin Dugard, the co-author behind the iconic Killing series, shares how rejection, corporate drudgery, and a surprise trip to Madagascar launched his storied career. With humor and humility, he recounts how belief, persistence, and a partner's unwavering support turned a hobby into a 19-time New York Times bestselling journey.  Martin Dugard is a historian, adventure writer, and the author of Taking Midway, Farther Than Any Man, and numerous bestsellers with Bill O'Reilly.

Chapter 1 What's Killing the Witches by Bill O'Reilly"Killing the Witches: The Horror of Salem, 1692" by Bill O'Reilly, co-authored with Martin Dugard, delves into the infamous Salem witch trials, highlighting the atmosphere of fear and hysteria that engulfed the Massachusetts colony in 1692. The book examines the societal, religious, and psychological factors that contributed to the persecution of alleged witches, resulting in trials and executions of numerous individuals, particularly women. O'Reilly brings to life the characters and events of this dark chapter in American history, drawing parallels to contemporary issues of scapegoating and mass panic. The narrative is engaging and informative, blending storytelling with historical analysis, as it uncovers the tragic consequences of superstition and a breakdown of community trust.Chapter 2 Killing the Witches by Bill O'Reilly Summary"Killing the Witches: The Fearful Legacy of Flame-Burning Women" is a historical account by Bill O'Reilly, in his distinctive narrative style, that focuses on the witch hunts of the 17th century, primarily in colonial America and Europe. The book centers on the infamous Salem Witch Trials of 1692 but expands its scope to discuss the widespread fear of witchcraft that gripped many regions during that era. O'Reilly examines the societal and cultural factors that fostered hysteria, including religious zeal, gender dynamics, and the social position of women, who were frequently targeted in these accusations. O'Reilly provides a detailed recounting of key figures involved in the trials, outlining the often arbitrary and brutal methods used to determine guilt, including spectral evidence and torture. He combines historical fact with compelling storytelling, illustrating the impact of fear and paranoia on communities. In doing so, O'Reilly draws parallels between the witch hunts and modern-day societal issues, emphasizing how fear can lead to the scapegoating of vulnerable populations. Through his writing, O'Reilly aims to shed light on the dark legacy of these events, imploring readers to recognize and resist the potential for similar patterns of hysteria and blame in contemporary society.Chapter 3 Killing the Witches AuthorBill O'Reilly is an American journalist, author, and former television host, best known for his work as the anchor of "The O'Reilly Factor" on Fox News.

Martin Dugard is the New York Times bestselling author known for his nonfiction works and historical thrillers, among them Taking London, Taking Paris, Taking Berlin, the Killing series with Bill O'Reilly, Into Africa, and The Explorers. Recently, I read Martin's excellent book, Taking London: Winston Churchill and the Fight to Save Civilization, and can tell you it's a riveting, well-researched tale of truly fascinating people in London during World War II, who were both extremely famous, like Churchill, Neville Chamberlain, Edward R. Murrow, and others, as well as various less well-known fighter pilots who stood in the breach when dealing with harrowing life and death challenges. A seasoned adventurer and journalist, Martin has written books and articles that have been praised for their engaging narratives and meticulous research, such as the Tour de France, ancient civilizations, and adventure sports. In addition, Martin serves on the Board of Directors of the USA Track & Field Foundation, and coaches cross country high school athletes. www.martindugard.com

Bill O'Reilly sits down with Margaret Hoover to discuss his latest book, the presidential race, and the sexual harassment allegations that led to his firing from Fox News. In Confronting the Presidents, O'Reilly and co-author Martin Dugard present essays on each of the nation's presidents. O'Reilly defends their depiction of Herbert Hoover and his approach to history. He addresses the presidential debate and the potential impact of the assassination attempts on Donald Trump, as well as how conservative media has changed since he left cable news in 2017 and figures like Tucker Carlson gained prominence. Hoover then questions O'Reilly about the harassment allegations against him and the cultural issues raised by the fact that he has gotten a second chance at success while some of his accusers struggle to find work in television.

New York Times bestselling author Martin Dugard joins Tim to talk about his newest book called “Taking Berlin: The Bloody Race to Defeat the Third Reich.” It's the story of the Allies' campaign across Europe during World War II as seen through the eyes of five key figures. This book is part of the “Taking” trilogy on World War II, and follows Martin's work with Bill O'Reilly on the popular “Killing” series of books. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/Taking_Berlin_auphonic.mp3 If you listen to our episode #243 from earlier this year, you'll get the story of D-Day, when the Allies invaded France during World War 2 to take back the European continent from the Nazis. The D-Day invasion happened on June 5th 1944. It was the most massive military invasion ever mounted in the history of the world. This massive operation was called Operation Overlord.  The allied commander was U.S. General Dwight David Eisenhower. Their focus was on landing zones in Normandy. The Allies had planned to land on those beaches in France and then work their way through Europe to the heart of the Nazi regime, Berlin. Today, we're going to focus on that story. The story of how the Allies mounted a campaign to take back those captive nations from Hitler and win the war. This is the focus of Martin Dugard's new book called, “Taking Berlin.” It follows his initial book in the series, which was called “Taking Paris.” I asked him how he sees this series unfolding.
