Endurance Nerd Talk – Über Ausdauersport und Triathlon: Training, Equipment, Ernährung, Szene
Champions Edition im Triathlon-Chat! Nach dem Neuseenman holen Nick und Nils die beiden Gewinner:innen des Pushing-Limits-Clubrennens ans Mikro: Naima und Max. Beide waren nicht nur im Club ganz vorne, sondern haben auch im Gesamtfeld richtig starke Ausrufezeichen gesetzt. In der Folge geht es um ihre ganz unterschiedlichen Wege in den Triathlon: Naima kommt aus dem Radsport und arbeitet heute als Ärztin in der Unfallchirurgie, Max ist erst seit rund dreieinhalb Jahren im Triathlon unterwegs, hat neben Abi, Barista-Job und Lebensumbruch den Sport für sich entdeckt – und fährt inzwischen Zeiten, die selbst Nick und Nils staunen lassen. Natürlich sprechen die vier auch ausführlich über das Rennen: Schwimmen, Pacing, Wattwerte, Laufbeine, die richtige Strategie und das Gefühl, wenn am Ende plötzlich ein richtig großer Tag dabei herauskommt. Dazu gibt's viel Community-Vibe, ehrliche Einblicke, Trainingsgeschichten und die Erkenntnis: In der Pushing-Limits-Bubble schlummern verdammt viele schnelle und spannende Geschichten. Themen der Folge: Neuseenman, Pushing-Limits-Clubrennen, Naima & Max, Race-Recap, Community, Triathlon-Einstieg, Training mit App, Schwimmen, Radfahren, Laufen, Pacing, Krafttraining und die Frage, wie aus ganz normalen Lebenswegen ziemlich außergewöhnliche Leistungen entstehen.

Come chat with returning guest, Kat, and I about our races last weekend! We go into detail about the courses that we ran, the challenges within the race, and how we felt upon finishing them. We also talk about how we have trained leading up to the race and how running has been a welcome challenge for us both physically and mentally.
What happens when you willingly sign up to do something that seems impossible? In this episode of the Champion Living Podcast, Doug Champion welcomes JR back to the show to relive their recent Spartan Race experience—a challenge that tested far more than physical fitness. From brutal carries and slippery climbs to deep mud bogs, barbed wire crawls, and a dramatic finish through the fire pit, this race became a powerful lesson in resilience, teamwork, mindset, and discovering what you're truly capable of when quitting isn't an option. For JR, the race represented something even bigger. After feeling like he'd hit a plateau, Spartan reignited the "one more rep" mentality that has fueled so much of his journey. Together, Doug and JR discuss how pushing beyond perceived limitations creates growth, why surrounding yourself with the right people matters, and how adversity often reveals strengths you didn't know you had. The conversation is packed with hilarious moments, hard-earned lessons, and practical insights for athletes, competitors, and anyone chasing growth in life. Along the way, they recount unforgettable race moments, including navigating treacherous obstacles, surviving the infamous mud bog, completing a grueling barbed-wire army crawl where JR lost his pants while his uncle threw dollar bills onto the course, and ultimately crossing the finish line after 2 hours and 22 minutes of relentless effort. The episode also highlights JR's mission through the Spur Your Way Out Foundation, which helps individuals overcome obstacles by providing access to life-changing equipment and opportunities. Donations help fund resources such as FES bikes, track chairs, and other adaptive equipment that empower people to continue pursuing an active and meaningful life.

What drives you to race? What's your why? That's the question Angela faced before she even lined up to the start of Ironman Lanzarote this year. Diagnosed with a virus that had been brewing in her system for weeks without her knowing, Angela made the choice (with her doctor's permission) to start the race and see what she had in her. She had a great swim and bike and ended up crossing that finish line and remembering WHY she does this sport. Also, we have special guest appearance from Angela's mom, Kim! Have a listen!

In this episode of the No Name RC Podcast, Lefty, Max & Pekko sit down to geek out over the 2026 IFMAR Worlds Warm-Up Race from Thornhill Raceway in Texas!

The Traka is a 3 day gravel event that takes place in one of the meccas of riding in Spain: Girona. This year's race marked Angela's return to gravel racing after an almost 2 year hiatus. With over 2600 meters of climbing in 200km, this race reminded Angela that gravel racing is so different than Ironman racing. In fact, she may (or may not) have called Ironman racing "soft" in this podcast. This race recap includes crying on the side of the road, last minute tire switching, running out of fuel, and a whole lot of riding alone for 8 hours. Have a listen!

This week on Fuel for the Sole, it's all about Boston Marathon Weekend. We're breaking down everything we did on the nutrition side to prep for and execute sub-2:55 marathons — from the carb loading strategy in the days leading up to the race, to pre-race fueling on race morning, to exactly what we took in mile by mile on the course.

Presented by Maxxis Let's be real here...did we have our first snoozer of a race in 2026? Sure, in comparison to the edge-of-your-seat races of the parst few weekends, the runaway performances turned in by Haiden Deegan in the 250 Western Division main and Hunter Lawrence in the 450 main on Empower Field inside Mile High Stadium in Denver, Colorado, were quite boring. Still, the stage is set for two great races this weekend in Salt Lake City, where the 450 title will come down to a winner-take-all affair between Ken Roczen and Hunter Lawrence, and Haiden Deegan will try to destroy the competition in what will be his last 250 Supercross. Who do you have?
This week we welcome you behind the scenes of Microcosm Coaching with a quick introduction to Coach Zachary Russell, an athletic trainer and strength coach whose multisport background spans Ironman, triathlon, marathoning, and trail running. He shares what kinds of athletes light him up to coach and how his experience across disciplines shapes the way he builds plans.Then Zoë and TJ dig into TJ's recent Canyons Endurance Run 100K, which he completed roughly 80 minutes off his goal time after a brutal stretch of life context, including his dad's ongoing health and the loss of his uncle the night before the race. They talk about how Cliff and TJ restructured the build entirely, doing more base earlier and less intensity later, and yet Training Peaks read his fitness as identical to previous cycles. They get honest about caretaker stress, mental bandwidth, the choice to keep the door open to joy even when training feels heavy, and why the comparison trap between seasons can quietly steal everything.The bulk of the episode tackles a listener question from Delaney, who has noticed the same faces at every ultra and is wondering whether stringing races together actually counts as training. Zoë and TJ define training the way Microcosm uses it, intentional movement with an adaptive purpose, and reframe it as a continuum rather than a binary. They unpack the B race concept, the difference between racing it and running it, the lily pad effect of bouncing race to race without ever integrating what you learned, and the diminishing returns of using events as a substitute for consistency. They also offer a few honest questions to ask yourself, including whether you would still be putting in this volume if nothing were on the calendar, and what it means to build a higher floor in the interstitial periods most runners ignore.Have a question for the show?

“I had every excuse in the book. The perfect narrative to show up and have fun and chalk it all up to injury and sponsor change. But there was this constant question: how can I be true to myself and respectful of the fitness I've gained?”My guest for today's episode is Clayton Young. He's back after the 2026 Boston Marathon, which was his tenth marathon and this his tenth appearance on this podcast. He ran 2:05:41 for 11th place in the fastest and deepest field the race has ever seen. That time makes him one of the five fastest American men in marathon history on all courses.What makes this performance worth a full conversation is everything that went into it. Clayton came into Boston off a foot and ankle injury that kept him cross training for sixteen weeks. He switched sponsors to Brooks, he had ten weeks of actual running, and he made the decision, consciously and explicitly, to compete — not to show up and let the circumstances be the excuse, but to play to win. The result was a two-and-a-half-minute PR and a Wellesley College high-five moment that went viral.In this conversation, we go deep on the psychology of that decision, the Coach Ed Eyestone mantra of “fresh, flow, fearless, and faith,” the intel Clayton gathered from Rory Linkletter the night before that told him exactly how the race was going to go, the power data that said he was 1-2% less powerful than the year prior, and what it felt like to relive Chicago 2023 while dueling Ryan Ford in the closing miles of Boston.We also get into the top 10 streak that Boston broke, what Clayton thinks about his spot in the American marathon pecking order heading toward LA 2028, and the sunglasses saga involving my own pair of shades.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavezGuest: Clayton Young | @_clayton_young_Produced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Olipop's Tropical Punch tastes like a vacation in a can.

It was a banner day for PRs and BQs at the Boston Marathon this year! Cool weather, party cloudy skies, and a tailwind! In this episode, Amy recaps her race and her 11 minute BQ for next year. This is Amy's favorite race in the whole world, so step into the magic that is Boston :)
“You can't just say from nowhere that you're going to podium. My bib number was 15, which means there were 14 faster than me on paper. What you can do is read your body during the race. In Boston this year, once it started unfolding, I just knew everything was clicking.”My guest for today's episode is Zouhair Talbi. This is his second time on the show this year. We had him on in January after his victory at the Houston Marathon in 2:05.On Monday at the Boston Marathon, he finished fifth overall in 2:03:45, became the top American in the race, and broke Ryan Hall's American course record that had stood since 2011. He did it in regular prescription glasses, after back-to-back marathon blocks with barely ten days off between each, and after a training build that included a half marathon PR at the NYC Half while still in the middle of a full training load.Zouhair was born in Morocco and grew up there before coming to the United States, where he now trains in Colorado Springs with coach Scott Simmons. CITIUS MAG first covered him at the Trials of Miles Texas Qualifier in February 2021, and this performance at Boston was a long time in the making.In this conversation, he takes us inside the lead pack on race day, explains what it felt like to run next to John Korir and read the field in real time, and shares his honest thinking about what it will take to go from 2:03 to being a genuine contender at the 2028 U.S. Olympic Trials and beyond. He also speaks directly and thoughtfully about what it means to represent the United States, and what he wants his son — born here, growing up here — to see when he watches his father compete.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavezGuest: Zouhair Talbi | @zouhairathleProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSXENDURANCE: When you finish a hard workout, the work isn't actually done.

This week, we're back in full chaos mode with “The Race". Previously on Little House: Laura loses her beloved horse Bunny thanks to Nellie Oleson's Oscar Award-level brat behavior, and the entire town collectively decides, “Yeah… that kid needs consequences.” Spoiler: She does not really get them.We pick up right where the emotional damage left off. Laura is still being taunted by Nellie (the audacity!) and is understandably ready to go full prairie vengeance. Enter: THE RACE.What begins as a simple competition quickly becomes Walnut Grove's version of Fast & Furious: Horse Girl Drift...with a silver cup as the prize!Once again, it's Laura Ingalls vs. Nellie Oleson, a rivalry now operating at historic levels. And just to make sure Nellie has every possible advantage, enter Harriet Oleson, who does what she does best: throws money at the problem and buys Nellie a brand new horse. Because clearly the lesson here is more horse, less accountability.Meanwhile, Laura is out here with Bunny—icon, legend, moral compass—relying on grit and determination to fuel her training montage.What follows is a race that is equal parts thrilling and deeply stressful, because nothing about this feels safe, supervised, or emotionally regulated. Meanwhile, Bunny continues to be the real star of the show. (Still no clarity, by the way: boy? girl? We demand answers.)We break down the buildup, the blatant favoritism, and the absolute audacity of buying your way into victory. And of course, we get all the behind the scenes tea from Nellie (Alison) herself!Then, join us on Patreon where Muppets once again are part of the conversation, and more delicious behind the scenes stories about Little House, production, and if we're able to watch ourselves on screen after we've finished filming.

join my 8-Week Challenge https://ericrobertsfitness.com/erf-8week-challenge.html On today's episode I break down my first Hyrox race — why I signed up in the first place (I've avoided cardio my entire life), exactly how I trained for it on just one day a week of cardio, and what I ate to fuel it, which ended up being 4,500 to 5,000 calories a day. I talk through what was actually hard on race day, what was easier than I expected because of my lifting background, and what I'd do differently next time if you're thinking about signing up for one yourself.

This episode is brought to you by the McGrath Launceston Running Festival TRAINING WEEKS Brett recaps his recent 10,000m performance and talks honestly about why he was disappointed with his race. Joel prompts him to reflect on races earlier on his career that he was disappointed with, which leads to a great conversation on exactly why he's temporarily focusing on the track. THE BIG Q Joel takes on the roll of a "Friend Of The Show" this week, asking Brett how long he thinks a runner is allowed to feel disappointed after a poor performance. Brett gives an insightful answer which also addresses how long a runner should feel elated for, after a fantastic performance. GIVE SOME KUDOS Brett sends his towards Cam Myers for what the guys say is one of the most incredible runs they've ever seen. Joel sends his to an exciting new furniture design studio. TWHSOITWTWATSA Before they submit their victims for this week's segment Joel sheds light on an exciting competition from our mates at Better Beer, which will see the winner have their rent or mortgage paid for (for the rest of the year). Moving onto the segment Brett isn't sure about a certain comment found on social media regarding the Men's 3000m at Maurie Plant Meet. Joel closes out the segment and the episode with a video of a very unusual cheer squad during a collegiate 4x 400m relay. https://www.launcestonrunningfestival.com.au/ SIGN UP TO OUR PATREON TODAY: www.patreon.com/forthekudos Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/forthekudos Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/forthekudos TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@forthekudos Brett: https://www.instagram.com/brett_robinson23 Joel: https://www.instagram.com/joeltobinblack

Zoë and TJ are back from Italy and kicking off April with a packed episode. First up: coach Kyle Jones: a masters athlete and ultra running specialist with a focus on helping athletes who are all in on the long game, whether that's accumulating volume safely or solving the full puzzle of race-day logistics that go far beyond training.Then it's Hot or Nots. On the docket: incline stretch boards for calf and Achilles work (the evidence is real, but eccentric loading beats passive stretching for most underlying issues), packaged Rice Krispie Treats as race fuel (the macros check out — 27 to 30 grams of carbs, glucose plus fructose, low fiber — but the chewability at mile 50 is another story), Ziploc bags in ice bandanas (hard pass: the evaporation is the whole point), hybrid athletes as a category (the jury is out, but the coaches aren't your girls if high rocks is your thing), run clubs (yes, with a firm caveat on effort), and microdosing during ultras (the research case for decriminalization is strong; the research case for running 100 miles on psilocybin is still pending).The listener Q this week tackles one of the most common rules in running: you don't need to fuel for efforts under 90 minutes. Zoë and TJ break down why that's only half the story. There are actually two separate mechanisms at play — the metabolic pathway most runners know, and a neurological pathway most don't. Receptors in the mouth and upper GI tract signal the brain the moment carbohydrates are detected, easing the protective fatigue response before a single calorie has been absorbed. This has been demonstrated even when athletes swish a carb solution and spit it out. For high-intensity efforts like a hard half marathon, the case for fueling is stronger than the 90-minute rule suggests — and the practical takeaways are in the episode.The back half is a full race debrief on Chianti. Zoë ran an hour faster than last year and still came in 13th. TJ walks through how to approach a post-race analysis when the headline result doesn't tell the full story — and how Zoë's coach surfaced a key data point she almost missed entirely: cardiac drift. In 2025, Zoë's cardiac drift was 9.54% over the course of the race. In 2026, it was negative 1.39%, meaning she was actually able to access higher heart rates at the end of the race — a direct signal of aerobic durability built by keeping easy days genuinely easy, week after week. The conversation covers what cardiac drift actually measures, why gray zone training works against this adaptation, and what the terrain-specific limiter was that explains the placement gap.
Two years ago when Getting Chicked first started, Megan shared that one of her biggest dreams was to qualify for the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials. With a couple more marathons under her belt and a ton of hard work, she DID it! In today's special edition of the pod, Megan walks us through her race at the McKirdy MicrOTQ from start to finish and breaks down how the marathon unfolded. She also shares some of her thoughts and final prep in the last week leading up to the race as well as her reflections now that she's officially an OTQ gal._________________CHICK CHAT– Send us your questions at gettingchickedpodcast@gmail.com or DM us on Instagram at @gettingchickedYOUR HOSTS– Karen Lesiewicz | @kare_les on Instagram– Rachel DaDamio | @rdadamio on X– Megan Connelly | @meganmorantwwe on InstagramFOLLOW OUR SHOW– Subscribe on Apple Podcasts here– Follow on Spotify here– Follow the show on Instagram here
