Episode notesIn this episode, we will talk about the difference between treadmill running, road running, and trail running. Is there a difference? Tune in now and find out!Timestamps of big takeawaysRunning is Running[00:55] Once you change your thoughts on running, how you describe yourself as a runner will change. You can say that you run on trails, treadmills, roads, on the hills, etc. Running itself is still running regardless of where you do it.The Difference Between Running on Different Terrains[01:44] Regardless of the terrain, you want to be in the Running Pose. The fall element changes for everybody because we all need to hold our posture, but the running pose itself remains the same in any running situation. The only action you have is pulling your foot up from whatever surface you're on.Controlled Action[05:16] When you're pulling in place, you are doing a controlled action. When you're standing in place, you are actively pulling your foot up using your hamstring. However, when your body falls forward, and your weight travels forward, you're only pulling 2% of your body weight and only using 10% active muscle contraction.The Falling Aspect of Running[06:21] For most people, running is already hard. You have to deal with your breathing, your body weight, balancing, and then there's the muscular efforts in your legs. You're using your musculoskeletal system as well, and actively working the body. When you're running on a very soft trail, or mud or sand, you are getting some fall because you're traveling. The more squishy the ground is, the more the foot will sink. When you sink into the ground, you have to work a little harder to get that foot back up, rather than just falling.[07:58] You can use gravity to your advantage, anyone. The more you understand that and simply pull your foot just enough to break contact with the ground, the more you will release your body from a lot of work.Rate, Review & Subscribe ReminderDon't forget to like and subscribe to our show.

A finalist for North American Car of the Year, the 2025 Kia K4 offers a bold exterior design and feature-rich interior. As the successor to the Kia Forte, the K4 blends fastback-inspired styling with a wide, confident stance. The K4 is powered by a choice of two engines: a 147-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) or a 190-horsepower 1.6-liter turbocharged engine paired with a conventional eight-speed automatic transmission. Key exterior elements include vertically oriented LED headlights, a sleek roofline with hidden rear door handles, and an available GT-Line Turbo trim featuring sporty gloss black accents and 18-inch alloy wheels. Its larger dimensions contribute to its class-leading interior space, including a remarkable 38 inches of rear legroom. Inside, the K4 leads the segment with cutting-edge technology, including a segment-first 30-inch digital display that integrates the instrument cluster and infotainment screen.

Running has the power to create a strong sense of community, but when it comes to road running and trail running they have very little in common aside from putting one foot in front of the other. These sports require different skills and come with their own set of challenges. This is part of what makes them so much fun. While we love both of these sports, we thought it would be fun to debate who are the better athletes: road runners or trail runners? You typically need more all-out speed to excel on the roads and it takes some time to callus your legs to the impact of racing on hard pavement. This doesn't mean it's any easier than trail running though, which takes a lot of agility navigating different terrains and precision to fuel for more time on your feet. There's no easy way to answer who are the better athletes so RC coach Hayley Munn joins the show to help settle this question.  We can't promise we'll follow any formal debate rules but we can promise a fun conversation that will including topics like: What skills separate road runners from trail runners? Which types of runners are the better athletes? Which type of running is the most fun?

In this episode, I answer a question on doing your long runs on trails vs road and what benefits you gain.Send questions through to tim@trainsmooth.com  

Sometimes all it takes is a little change to get out of a rut. This proved true for both guests on today's show, coach Hayley Green and Cherie Turner. After years in the sport, they both discovered a passion for new racing distances and are having way more fun too after making the change.  Hayley recently traded her focus on road marathons for longer ultra trail races and Cherie discovered she much preferred shorter distances to the ultramarathons she was accustomed to. The common theme here is change and how it can make you a better runner. If you've ever found yourself hitting a plateau or lacking motivation then you're going to relate to these stories. Running is a sport that rewards consistency and repetition but that doesn't mean you have to feel like you're doing the same thing again and again. There are so many different ways to participate in running. Trying something new might be exactly what you need to reignite your passion or reach new levels of fitness. This show is all about the benefits of trying something new including topics such as: How a change in training can make you a better athlete How to overcome a lack of motivation with your running How your abilities can carry-over to other events or distances Signs it might be time for you to change up your training routine I think these lessons are valuable for just about any distance or even for life outside running and I can't wait to share them with you.  Women's running stories podcast Connect, Comment, Community Follow RunnersConnect on Instagram Join the Elite Treatment where you get first dibs on everything RTTT each month!

In 1867, John Muir set out on foot to explore the botanical wonders of the South, keeping a detailed journal of his adventures as he traipsed from Kentucky southward to Florida. One hundred and fifty years later, on a similar whim, veteran Atlanta reporter Dan Chapman, distressed by sprawl-driven environmental ills in a region he loves, recreated Muir's journey to see for himself how nature has fared since Muir's time. Channeling Muir, he uses humor, keen observation, and a deep love of place to celebrate the South's natural riches. But he laments that a treasured way of life for generations of Southerners is endangered as long-simmering struggles intensify over misused and dwindling resources. Chapman seeks to discover how Southerners might balance surging population growth with protecting the natural beauty Muir found so special. Each chapter touches upon a local ecological problem—at-risk species in Mammoth Cave, coal ash in Kingston, Tennessee, climate change in the Nantahala National Forest, water wars in Georgia, aquifer depletion in Florida—that resonates across the South. Chapman delves into the region's natural history, moving between John Muir's vivid descriptions of a lush botanical paradise and the myriad environmental problems facing the South today. Along the way he talks to locals with deep ties to the land—scientists, hunters, politicians, and even a Muir impersonator—who describe the changes they've witnessed and what it will take to accommodate a fast-growing population without destroying the natural beauty and a cherished connection to nature. A Road Running Southward: Following John Muir's Journey Through an Endangered Land (Island Press, 2022) is part travelogue, part environmental cri de coeur, and paints a picture of a South under siege. It is a passionate appeal, a call to action to save one of the loveliest and most biodiverse regions of the world by understanding what we have to lose if we do nothing. Matt Simmons is an Assistant Professor of History at Emmanuel University where he teaches courses in U.S. and public history. His research interests focus on the intersection of labor and race in the twentieth-century American South. Connect with him at Matthew Simmons | LinkedIn. Learn more about your ad choices.

A Road Running Southward: Following John Muir's Journey Through an Endangered Land (Island Press, 2022) is part travelogue, part environmental cri de coeur, and paints a picture of a South under siege. It is a passionate appeal, a call to action to save one of the loveliest and most biodiverse regions of the world by understanding what we have to lose if we do nothing. Matt Simmons is an Assistant Professor of History at Emmanuel University where he teaches courses in U.S. and public history. His research interests focus on the intersection of labor and race in the twentieth-century American South. Connect with him at Matthew Simmons | LinkedIn. Learn more about your ad choices.

In 1867, John Muir set out on foot to explore the botanical wonders of the South, keeping a detailed journal of his adventures as he traipsed from Kentucky southward to Florida. One hundred and fifty years later, on a similar whim, veteran Atlanta reporter Dan Chapman, distressed by sprawl-driven environmental ills in a region he loves, recreated Muir's journey to see for himself how nature has fared since Muir's time. Channeling Muir, he uses humor, keen observation, and a deep love of place to celebrate the South's natural riches. But he laments that a treasured way of life for generations of Southerners is endangered as long-simmering struggles intensify over misused and dwindling resources. Chapman seeks to discover how Southerners might balance surging population growth with protecting the natural beauty Muir found so special. Each chapter touches upon a local ecological problem—at-risk species in Mammoth Cave, coal ash in Kingston, Tennessee, climate change in the Nantahala National Forest, water wars in Georgia, aquifer depletion in Florida—that resonates across the South.

My thoughts for today are around the idea that we should never take our good health for granted and I'll tell you why. I recently had an accident that took me out of running or any sport for that matter for about a week and a half. It happened right outside my house on my bike going super slow, barely pedaling. There was a curb that my front tire cleared but my back tire did not and next thing I knew I was laying head first on the ground with blood dripping from my forehead. Stitches were required and I somehow had major bruising in my lower abdominal. It wasn't fun and I couldn't run. I was mad at myself for letting it happen, for not being more careful but of course it could always be much worse. I've slowly come back to running and so grateful to feel good doing it again. So be safe out there and cherish whatever form of movement you're able to do today, wherever you're at in the process.On today's episode of Just In Stride I sat down with Ultrarunner and adventurer, Faye Alice.Faye grew up being active and ran for her school. Dance however was what she wanted to pursue as a career until she realized she may have reached her potential and decided to move on.Where dancing stopped, her running continued, finding joy on the roads and later on the trails. Over the years her passion has grown but also the distances as she takes on multi day races of 200 miles and beyond. Of course, with the Canadian Rockies as her training ground there's endless opportunities to explore for hours on her own two feet.-------Offer from Xact Nutrition: This episode is presented by our friends at Xact Nutrition and they are offering you 15% OFF your order when you use the code JUSTINSTRIDE.

The midstance phase of a running stride is a crucial element of running form, but many runners are ignoring it. If you have weaknesses, imbalances, or poor movement patterns, this is the part of the gait cycle that will show it. Chris Johnson, DPT is a Seattle-based physical therapist, performance coach, entrepreneur, and multiple time Kona IRONMAN qualifier who shares how midstance affects your running performance and how you can improve it. In this episode, Chris and I talk about: Midstance importance in running mechanics and injury prevention The impact midstance has on muscles and running form Common problems in midstance technique from knees to hips The gluteus medius muscle, a common problem area for runners Training the gluteus maximus and hip abductors for running mechanics How to train the midstance for stronger running Single leg exercises for runners with injuries “Movement snacks” for runners: simple movements throughout the day to help runners improve midstance This is an excellent episode for any runner who's considering how their running form plays into their performance, even beyond midstance mechanics.

Thank you to 2Before for supporting Strength Running!   Thank you MOBO Board Invented by renowned physical therapist Jay Dicharry, MOBO helps you stabilize your stance with an innovative rocker board that's set up on two fins. The design effectively forces you to drive your big toe into the board to improve your stability. I was pretty arrogant going into my first session on the MOBO Board. How hard can it be to balance, right? Well, I was humbled pretty quickly! Even if you're a good runner, better balance, stability, and proprioception is going to help you have a more powerful stride and prevent more running injuries. You'll learn how to improve the efficiency of the kinetic chain from your hip to your big toe. Because as Jay likes to say, it's not just how strong you are, but how well you use that strength. I was recently at a weekend physical therapy workshop (lol I was the only running coach) and learned how important (and rare) this simple movement is.

Trying to pick out new running shoes? Listen to this episode before you do!Timestamps of big takeawaysNeutral vs. Stability vs. Motion Control Shoes[01:12] Coach Valerie discusses the different types of running shoes and emphasizes that comfort is the most important factor.[02:21] She explains the idea behind motion control and stability shoes, and why they may not be the best choice for runners.[04:17] Coach Valerie talks about the problems with gait analysis and how shoes shouldn't control foot movement.Proper Running Technique[05:16] Having a loose and free ankle while running is critical. The foot should land neutrally on the ground.[07:33] The focus should be on the correct movement of pulling the foot, rather than foot strike and impact.Minimalist vs. Cushioned Shoes[08:25] There should be a balance between having enough cushion for comfort and protection, but not so much that it disconnects the runner from the ground.[09:03] We recommend trying to go as minimalist as your foot will allow.Trail Running vs. Road Running[10:15] Running is running, regardless of the surface, but Coach Valerie acknowledges that trail running may require shoes with more protection, such as a rock plate.Proper Shoe Fit[13:08] Being able to move and wiggle the toes inside the shoe is important. You don't want to feel constricted.[13:37] Coach Valerie emphasizes the importance of trying on shoes, with or without socks, to ensure a proper fit and comfort. If possible, walk around in the store to make sure they feel right.[14:17] One reason the shoe needs to fit well is to avoid sliding around, which can cause blisters.Blisters and Running Technique[15:03] Blisters often come from chafing and can be a sign that the runner's foot is moving forward or back too much, indicating a need to focus on pulling. However, other causes of blisters can be weird stitching in the shoe or wet and bunched-up socks.[15:36] Blisters during downhill or trail running can be caused by the foot coming out in front and sliding in the shoe.Wet Conditions and Shoe Integrity[16:40] Wet shoes or socks can lose their integrity and cause sliding - again, this can lead to blisters.Rate, Review & Subscribe ReminderDon't forget to like and subscribe to our show.
