At 20 years old, I missed qualifying for the National Championships by three hundredths of a second in the 50 backstroke. Fast-forward 18 years, and at 38, I qualified for Nationals in the five-kilometer open-water swim—training mostly just three times a week. In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how I did it in my late thirties: the one thing an Olympic gold medalist taught me that helped me generate more power with less effort, why getting injured before the race actually worked in my favor, how just five minutes with one coach changed my technique in the final two months, and the single workout I repeated every week that built my endurance and helped me finish fast. 01:19 Missed Out Again 01:53 Stroke Analysis 3:41 Olympic Gold Medalist Secret 5:48 Swimming Workout 7:17 Injured 8:22 Race Day 8:48 The Best Anti-Fog Goggles 9:42 My 5km Time (Qualified)

In this episode of The Athlete's Compass, co-hosts Paul Warloski, Dr. Paul Laursen, and Marjaana Rakai unpack the often-overlooked reality of race day anxiety for everyday endurance athletes. They explore how physiological responses like elevated heart rate and the “monkey mind” can feel overwhelming, yet serve a functional purpose. The team discusses personal stories, evidence-based strategies like visualization and race-day rehearsals, and the power of simple tools—breathing, smiling, human connection—to reframe anxiety into a performance enhancer. They emphasize preparation, self-efficacy, and presence as key to transforming nerves into fuel.Key Episode TakeawaysRace anxiety is normal—even beneficial. It's your sympathetic nervous system preparing you for peak performance.The amygdala triggers the fight-or-flight response, but emotions like anxiety can be short-lived if not mentally recycled.Preparation is your best defense: mental rehearsal, race plans, and pacing practice reduce unpredictability.Visualize the whole experience: from arriving in town to the final push—especially what to do if things go wrong.Human connection helps regulate cortisol: smiling, eye contact, and small interactions ease stress.Breathe to break the anxiety loop: techniques like box breathing calm the nervous system and restore focus.Self-efficacy is key: confidence from training and process goals reduces pressure on outcome.Reframe nerves as excitement and privilege: gratitude turns stress into motivation.Paul Warloski - Endurance, Strength Training, YogaMarjaana Rakai - Tired Mom Runs - Where fitness meets motherhood.

In this episode:Can smiling make you perform better? We know that when you are happy that you will smile but it turns out that the relationship may be more of a two way street. that is to say, if you smile it can actually make you happy as well. On the Medical Mailbag we look at some fascinating science that suggests smiling can have some pretty important impacts on performance. Plus, I chat with Will Hicks, the brain behind the Air Track app, which does the heavy lifting of tracking air pollution like a hawk with a PhD. With a mix of traffic data, meteorological conditions, and some AI wizardry, this app offers insights that could make even the most oblivious runner stop and think twice about their chosen route. Will shares how understanding the local air quality can help athletes reduce exposure to pollutants, and let's be real, nobody wants to inhale a cloud of diesel fumes while trying to crush that PR. Spoiler alert: it turns out that even a couple of blocks away from a bustling street can drop your pollution exposure by 30%. So why not take the scenic route? The episode is packed with actionable advice, a dose of sarcasm, and the hard truth about how air quality impacts our health and performance. Who knew a little data could go such a long way in keeping us breathing easy while we sweat it out on those trails?Segments:[06:26]- Medical Mailbag: Smiling to perform[36:36]- Interview:Will Hicks LinksWill's Facebook page @airawarewill on Instagram Will's Website Will on YouTube places2swim web site

Send us a message (& include the best way to reach you)The fastest laps are won long before the green flag—when your mind fires clean and your body runs light. Brain fog can make you feel “online but empty,” and for drivers, crews, owners, and executives, that dull edge costs reaction time, good judgment, and stamina when it matters most. We walk you through a proven, race-ready roadmap to reclaim mental clarity with the Five Rs: Reveal, Remove, Replace, Rebalance, and Retain.We start by naming the real culprits behind slow thinking and short fuses: heavy metals from fuel and shop exposure, mold from musty rooms on the road, and gut overgrowth that thrives under stress and poor sleep. You'll hear how functional lab testing spots what standard bloodwork often misses, and why guessing keeps you stuck. Then we get practical with an immediate, safe starting point: a 7–21 day functional medicine detox that supports liver pathways, lowers toxic load, and refuels the brain with the vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and omega-3s it uses to think fast and recover deeper. Most people notice clearer mornings, steadier afternoons, and better sleep within a week.From there, we outline how to rebuild for the long season: replace deficiencies so neurotransmitters can fire on demand, rebalance hormones and the nervous system to exit survival mode, and retain gains with quarterly resets tailored to a demanding travel and race schedule. Along the way, we share the real-world factors that push clarity off track—and the simple choices that bring it back. If you're ready to swap fog for focus, start with our free toxicity assessment and book a complimentary 20-minute High Performance Health consult. Subscribe, share this with someone who needs a reset, and leave a review to help more high performers find their edge.Support the showAs a token of gratitude, of course you're interested in these FREE and powerful resources, and because you enjoy the show, first be sure to leave your 5-STAR Review HERE!

They trade practical strategies for racing in bad conditions, from smarter crewing and real waterproof layers to training in the weather you fear. Then Rachel sits down with Megan Roche — double doctor, mom of two, coach, and the 2025 Run Rabbit Run 50-mile champion — to talk about her “growth and grace” mantra, rebuilding after pericarditis and two pregnancies, lower-mileage success (about half her pre-baby volume), cross-training, and why patience and pelvic-floor PT matter. Megan shares how she balances competitive fire with motherhood, the joy of pacing, and what's next as she eyes longer distances.

You know the feeling. Your heart rate's already elevated before you've even warmed up. Your stomach feels off. You start second-guessing everything—your training, your pacing plan, your breakfast… all of it.Let me start by saying this: nerves are normal. In fact, they're a sign that you care. The goal today is not to get rid of the nerves, but to learn how to channel them.First, let's talk about where these nerves come from. Your body's just doing what it's designed to do—preparing for a challenge. It's a mild fight-or-flight response: adrenaline kicks in, your senses are heightened, your body is on alert.But if you don't know how to frame it mentally, those butterflies can start to spiral. They go from "I'm ready" to "I'm freaking out." So let's talk about how to shift that energy.One of the most powerful mindset tools you can use is to relabel the nerves as excitement.“I'm not anxious. I'm excited.”They feel almost the same in the body—elevated heart rate, sweaty palms, tension. But one mindset is empowering, the other is paralyzing.So when you feel the nerves kicking in, say to yourself:“This means I'm ready. I've trained for this. My body is waking up.”Nerves often come from fear of the unknown—weather, competition, how you'll feel at mile 20.So pull your mind back to what you can control:Your pacing strategyYour nutrition and hydrationYour attitudeYour breathingEverything else? Let it go.Here are a few tools I give my athletes to stay grounded:Visualization – Close your eyes the night before or morning of and walk through your race. Start to finish. Calm, confident, and strong.Breathwork – Box breathing (inhale 4, hold 4, exhale 4, hold 4) helps regulate your nervous system.Mantras – A few words you can anchor into when your mind starts to spiral. Examples: “Strong and steady.” “I've done the work.” “Calm is fast.”Okay, so what if you still panic a little? That's okay. It doesn't mean the race is doomed. Most athletes have 1–2 “oh crap” moments pre-race. Let it pass. Come back to your breath. Come back to the plan.Your race isn't won or lost in the first mile. It's won by staying present.Race day nerves don't mean something's wrong. They mean you're stepping into something meaningful.You're pushing your limits. You're putting yourself out there. You're doing something most people will never dare to try.So the next time you feel those butterflies? Smile. Say thank you. And get ready to fly.

Every finish line moment you've celebrated was made possible by someone who showed up before dawn, prepared water stations, or cheered when you needed it most. In this heartfelt episode, we pull back the curtain on race volunteering with insights from experienced volunteers who've supported events from local 5Ks to the Boston Marathon.Our volunteer panel—Ilyana, Steve, Kay, and Mike—share what motivates them to give their time, the behind-the-scenes work few runners see, and the special connections formed with participants during races. From setting up thousands of water cups hours before runners arrive to finding creative ways to encourage struggling participants, these stories will transform how you see the smiling faces along your race route."I want any runner that interacts with me to know that I'm there to help them in any way I can," explains Steve, capturing the generous spirit that defines the volunteer experience. Kay reminds us that volunteers are often the first to arrive and last to leave, asking nothing in return but the joy of supporting others' achievements.We're also joined by Mark Lane-Holbert, who shares his profound experience guiding a blind runner at the Boston Marathon and discusses his upcoming handbook on running therapy. His work with Achilles International highlights another dimension of the running community's supportive nature.The episode features a delightful conversation with five women who formed the "Joyful Runners" relay team for the Centennial 100K in Washington after meeting through our podcast community. Their story of strangers becoming teammates exemplifies how running creates meaningful connections.Whether you're a seasoned racer or preparing for your first event, this episode will deepen your appreciation for the volunteers who make our running journeys possible. Next time you pass a water station or cross a finish line, remember to share a smile or word of thanks—it means more than you know.Send us a textSupport the showRise and Run Podcast is supported by our audience.
