One of our amazing Everyday Ultra Coaches, Christie Brinker, just finished the Leadville 100M as her first 100M!Leadville is a tough course; with most of the race being above 10,000 feet of elevation, having over 15,000 feet of climbing, and having unforgiving cutoffs, it is a beast to tackle for a first 100M.But Christie trained hard for it, executed her plan well, and overcame all of the mental obstacles to get it done.And one of the most impressive parts? She did it all while training at sea level with no access to mountains in Illinois.In this episode, Christie shares all about her training block and what helped her to prepare best for Leadville, her approach to racing Leadville and the play-by-play of her execution, and how she overcame unexpected challenges to get the belt buckle.Huge thank you for Christie for coming on the show!SHOW LINKS:Want to work with me and Christie as your coaches to crush your ultramarathon goals?

New course record at the Leadville 100 Miler in 15:12:30, 14 minutes ahead of last year. What just happened?! We are still processing it all, and this episode shares every detail while it's all fresh in our sleep-deprived minds.2 weeks ago, David said there was zero chance that he was going to race Leadville. He was still processing the very public failure at Western States. He felt like he just wasn't ready.Megan had other ideas. This episode tells the story of a surreal day that still seems a bit like an impossible dream that came to life, including sharing the final 23 miles together. David would have estimated the chances of this day at 1 in 10,000. But maybe love changes the odds in ways that science can't always account for.Also, Megan predicted the exact time down to the minute. Because of course she did.We love you all so much. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being there for the full journey.

This is a two-part series on a coming-of-age story set in 2000 Savannah, Georgia, where Keith explores what the world could look like if gay weren't a thing and black masculinity was not rooted in violence and toughness but affection and love. Jay, an unassuming boy-next-door type, is taken by surprise by the desire stirring inside him for Leroy, a once-thought-of enemy who seems to feel the same way about him. Maybe moreJay and Leroy sit at the helm of a story that explores the complexity of love, gang violence, redemption, and death in a world where everyone is free to be their true self without being an anomaly.
Today on the podcast is Yosuke Shibata.Yosuke is a rising junior out of South Eugene High School in Eugene, Oregon.Remember the name, folks.A lot of people are asking the question: “After Owen Powell, Josiah Tostenson, Tayvon Kitchen, Charlie Vause, all these guys who graduated, who is going to rise to the top on the high school scene?” Well, ladies and gentlemen, I have an answer for you. Yosuke is going to be a star on the national stage in high school.Yosuke has run 1:54 for 800m, 3:55 for 1500m, 4:12 for mile, and 14:59 for 5K XC. While those times might not yet seem like they are the caliber of a national champ, as we talked off the air, just before the start of this past track season, Yosuke, at the worst possible time, got hit with atypical pneumonia. He couldn't run or workout for 2 weeks. He was too weak to even go to school some days. And as Yosuke described it, it was a massively difficult point in his career, having to swallow his big goals for the season and really just take it one step at a time. He said that he had to remember that he was running to become better, not just to give up when something doesn't go to to plan.Ultimately, Yosuke, while not reaching his original goals, made a very admirable comeback.He set PRs across multiple events, finished 3rd in the 800m at State, 6th in the 1500m, and won the Nike Outdoor Nationals (NON) Emerging Elite Mile.More that just the results, the fact that Yosuke had the mental fortitude to salvage his track season, shows a level of grit and character-development. And honestly, those mental skills could be the separators as he emerges over these next two years.Aside from that, Yosuke and I had a fantastic conversation. He had so many stories and insights, especially when it comes down to race tactics, making mistakes, and mental toughness.So much to learn, I know you'll enjoy my chat with him today.But before we get into the show, please, if you haven't already, and you are enjoying this podcast, I would really appreciate a follow and a five-star review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or whatever other platform you are listening on. That goes a long way in supporting the growth of The Sunday Shakeout. That's all I ask. But other than that, sit back, relax, and enjoy my conversation, with the one and only, Mr. Yosuke Shibata.I hope you enjoy this episode of The Sunday Shakeout!

Today on the Doc On The Run Podcast we are talking with Dr. Samantha Braun about training fro Ultra's, running Hell's Hills and how her training as a Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine Physician helps her avoid overtraining injuries. How do you think you're training in rehabilitation help you understand your own mechanics, physical training limits and overtraining injury prevention while training for Ultra's? During the 50 mile trail race, what did you do to restore a more positive mindset and keep running to your potential? Knowing what you know now, what would you do differently to prevent that injury from happening? Right now there is some runner listening who is suffering from an over training injury, and very likely of how demoralized they have become as a consequence of not running. If she was sitting there in front of you right now and you knew this about her, what advice would you give her to encourage her to keep healing, working and getting stronger so that she could get back to running?

PSA: the audio on this is weird. We have no clue why it's like this, but I would rather release then it never see the light of day. He went from Rapid City to Hayward Field. From high school phenom to NCAA standout. And now, toeing the line with the best in the world, Simeon Birnbaum is bridging the levels in a way few athletes do.In his return to the show, we catch up with Simeon just 24 hours after his electric 3:56.64 mile at the Prefontaine Classic—his first real taste of pro racing on one of the sport's biggest stages.This isn't a rehash of what you already know. We're looking ahead: what it felt like lining up against Diamond League vets, how that race taught him more than any workout ever could, and why he's hungrier than ever to chase greatness at the highest level.The journey that brought him here is important, though: like the 3:57.53 mile he ran as a high school senior (and the 3:59.51 he clocked as a junior), the 1:47.96 800m speed he still carries, and the 3:37.02 1500m PR he dropped this spring at Oregon Twilight. Add in his 13:31.87 5000m from Big Tens (a meet record), and you're looking at one of the most versatile young talents in U.S. distance running. He came in 7th in the 1500m at NCAA outdoors in June of 2025. From his days winning 13 South Dakota state titles and earning 2023 HS Boys Athlete of the Year, to bouncing back from early setbacks in his freshman year and finishing 3rd at NCAAs in the 1500m, Simeon's story is just getting started.Whether you're a high schooler dreaming big or a fan of the sport tracking the next American great, this is the kind of conversation you'll want in your earpods for your next long run.In today's conversation, Simeon gives me a deep dive look into his Sophomore year. We dicuss the tactics, training, and races that made it successful. We walk through his first-ever NCAA Outdoor Championships, running the Pre-Classic, and his ambitions for domination in the future.Simeon Birnbaum is on the podcast. Don't miss it.

Phred is Back, BIGTIME and he finally reels in his “white whale” guest longtime friend and ultrarunning enigma Steven Tursi. Steven and Phred blab about running streaks, hashing adventures, body image, and a lifelong evolution of what it means to be a runner and a friend. Was Steve the original Johnny Appleseed for Cultra? Enjoy this fabulous Bootleg Cultra (Think Grateful Dead Barton Hall, Cornell University, May 8, 1977) Episode Highlights: Running Streaks and Ultramarathons Steven shares insights into his nearly 15-year daily running streak (over 5,200 days!)—and the debates surrounding the “continuous mile” rule. Fred and Steven unpack the motivations, sunk cost psychology, and mental games behind long streaks. Recap of Steven's recent race at altitude in the Great Divide 100, and how Colorado elevation humbled him despite living at 5,300 feet. Hashing Culture 101 What exactly is hashing? Steven breaks down the beer-fueled, trail-marked tradition of this global, irreverent running subculture. Stories about hash names (spoiler: “Hot Schweddy Balls”), flour trail controversies, beer stops, and inclusivity in the hashing world. On Body Image and Identity Steven gets candid about his weight, body perception, and running while heavier than most—highlighting his incredible feat of running a sub-24-hour 100-miler at ~275 lbs. Friendship in Adulthood A heartfelt and humorous discussion about how men form (and define) friendships as adults. Fred and Steven reflect on their 15+ year bond, running together at events like Ancient Oaks, TGNY, and Umstead, and how group chats now serve as lifelines for long-distance friendships. The Shift to Journey Runs Steven talks about moving away from racing for results and leaning into slower, more meaningful runs—including a planned 50-mile adventure on the Colorado Trail for his 50th birthday. Memories of the Four Pass Loop, the Manitou Incline “stunt hike,” and past multi-day efforts like Milwaukee to Chicago.

Send us a textFrom podium finishes to mountain FKT ambitions, Jane Maus has been quietly building an impressive resume in trail running. Just weeks before the highly anticipated Broken Arrow Skyrace 46K, she joins the Steep Stuff Podcast to share her practical approach to one of North America's most competitive mountain races.Having placed 7th at Broken Arrow in 2022, Moss brings valuable course experience to this year's event. She candidly discusses her race strategy—holding back on the first loop to avoid the late-race blowup she experienced previously. "Last time I raced this, I felt amazing the first lap and was third or fourth place the entire lap," she recalls. "And then I had a bit of an explosion the last four miles and got passed by like three or four women."What makes this conversation particularly refreshing is Maus' honest self-assessment. Despite strong performances this season, including a second-place finish at Lake Sonoma 50 Miler and victory at GoPro Mountain Games, she acknowledges the specialized nature of Broken Arrow's terrain and the depth of the women's field. While making Team USA would be "absolutely a dream come true," she's focused on executing her best possible race rather than fixating on specific placement goals.The discussion extends beyond Broken Arrow to explore her ambitious plans for 2023, including potential FKT attempts on Grand Teton and Whirl Peak, several Cirque Series races, and possibly the Leadville 100. Her excitement about blending traditional trail racing with technical mountain objectives showcases the versatility that defines today's elite mountain athletes.Whether you're preparing for your own mountain race or simply fascinated by the strategic thinking behind elite performances, this conversation offers valuable insights into the mindset required to succeed in competitive mountain racing. Give it a listen, then follow along as Jane takes on one of the year's most exciting trail events.Follow James on IG - @jameslaurielloFollow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_podUse code steepstuffpod for 25% off your cart at UltimateDirection.com!

David Roche is producer of one of the world's most popular podcasts, “Some Work, All Play,” with his cohost and wife, Megan. He's also a contender to win the Western States 100 Miler at the end of June. That's a rare combination.His back story is even more amazing. A little more than a year ago, Roche was seriously injured when struck by a car while bicycling a favorite road near Boulder, CO. At that time, the Duke Law School grad and ultramarathon coach had never even attempted a 100-mile. But last summer he broke a longstanding course record in the Leadville Trail 100, and several months later scored a convincing win (in torrid temps) in the Javelina 100.A fan of “Hamilton” the musical (“I'm not givin' away my shot”) and Simone Biles (“F___ around and find out”), Roche professes to believe that almost everyone's “amazing” and should reach high for their personal goals. Megan is both his coach, a champion ultra runner on her own, and an M.D. and PhD graduate from Stanford University. Every week, their pod covers the latest research findings about running, as they attempt to “science the sh__” out of endurance performance.You can learn more about David & Megan Roche at their SWAPrunning.com website, or at David's Instagram page.David's quest to win Western States has been chronicled here in a YouTube series by video producer Cody Bare.Key Sections Of The Podcast0:00Introduction to David Roche: The Rise of an Ultra Runner10:33David's Background: Life, Family, and Coaching13:43The Dynamic Duo: David and Megan Roche16:47The Birth of a Podcast: Authenticity and Popularity19:44Language and Honesty: The Explicit Nature of the Podcast22:37Uplifting Messages: The Importance of Kindness25:55Science vs. Intuition: Balancing Training Approaches28:42Training Insights: The Art of Adaptation31:44Overcoming Challenges: The Impact of a Serious Accident34:39Life Lessons: Embracing Mortality and Racing37:43The Athletic Journey: From Football to Ultra Running38:46The Journey to Natural Running40:13Genetics and Athletic Performance43:01Rapid Rise in Ultra Running47:35Mental Resilience and Self-Confidence51:32The Competitive Landscape of Ultra Running54:28Key Factors for Success at Western States56:58Reflections on the Evolution of Running01:01:09The State of the Sport of Running01:03:53Wishes for the FutureWHERE TO FIND "RUNNING: STATE OF THE SPORT"Use your smartphone to download podcast apps from Apple, Spotify, Pandora, or YouTube Podcasts.

Today on the show is none other than Kade Brownell, the legend of Mt. Spokane.Yes, you heard that right, Kade is one of the top runners in Washington's 3A classification and a total beast on the track. He's clocked some insane times: 1:52 for 800m, 4:04 for the mile, and 8:51 for 3200m. The reason I had him on the show today? Kade is not only gearing up for a shot at breaking 4 minutes in the mile at the Brooks PR Invitational this June, but he also just pulled off a gutsy double win in the 1600m and 3200m at his district championships – all while sick. Oh, and he closed the last lap of the 3200m in 54 seconds. Absolutely wild.Mt. Spokane is no joke either. The boys' and girls' teams both won district titles, making them serious contenders for the state championship. This school is dominating Washington's running scene.In this episode, Kade and I dive into all of it. We talk about the insane depth of Washington's track talent, what it's like chasing that elusive sub-4 barrier, how he overcame tearing both of his menisci, and what he hopes to accomplish in the final stretch of his high school career.Before we dive in, I need to ask you for a quick favor. If you haven't already, please give this podcast a follow and a five-star review on whatever platform you're listening on. It helps me bring you amazing guests like Kade and keeps the show growing as we celebrate the sport of track and field together.I hope you enjoy this episode of The Sunday Shakeout!

When a brother and sister team take on the Springtime Surprise 10-Miler, they don't just participate – they make runDisney history by becoming the first siblings to win both the male and female divisions in the same race. Meet Liz and Stephen Fengler, aptly nicknamed "The Flying Fenglers," whose remarkable running journey began in middle school tracks and culminated in a stunning Disney victory.What makes their achievement even more impressive? This was their first-ever runDisney experience. Stephen maintained a blistering pace around 5:30 per mile, even while still stopped for character photos – a power move that didn't prevent him from winning his division by 16 seconds. Meanwhile, Liz dominated the women's field, finishing with a commanding three-minute lead.The Fenglers aren't newcomers to shared victory podiums. Since fall 2022, they've claimed dual male-female wins in over 45 races throughout Connecticut, where they're active members of the Run 169 Town Society, challenging themselves to race in all 169 towns in the state. Their competitive backgrounds include collegiate careers at Southern Connecticut State University, where both earned conference honors.As Disneyland races prepare to pause after January 2026 for construction projects, we're reminded that sometimes the most magical Disney moments happen when family crosses the finish line together.
