This week on The Back of the Pack Podcast, Kyle calls an audible from the planned episode to mark a milestone that changed the entire direction of his life: the ten-year anniversary of his first open-heart surgery. For longtime listeners, this is a story that has been referenced many times, but for newer members of the Back of the Pack community, this may be the first time hearing how a heart condition, a failed valve, and two surgeries became part of the foundation for everything that came after. Kyle looks back on the dreams that changed, the warning signs that could not be ignored, the doctors who made all the difference, and the moments from 2016 that still remain impossible to forget. This episode is honest, personal, emotional, and at times surprisingly funny, because sometimes survival stories come with scars, hospital gowns, bad timing, and a few memories that still feel unreal ten years later. More than anything, this is a reflection on what it means to keep going when life interrupts the plan in the biggest way possible. From the first steps after surgery to the long road back toward racing, this story helps explain the runner, the podcast, and the stubborn refusal to let one defective valve write the ending. Ten years later, Kyle is still here, still moving, still telling the story, and still probably fine. Join us for a very personal episode about the heart behind the miles.

Chase comes on the podcast just days after a very memorable Midnight Madness 5K in Ames. He tells why it was special. He talks about health issues that prompted his return to Iowa. Chase set a new best for the marathon of 2:26:40 at the IMT Des Moines Marathon in October, but he mentions why that race was a bit disappointing. The former Manson Northwest Webster prep gives his next goal and why he believes a change in diet has improved his times greatly. The Northwestern College grad describes his journey into coaching and why his first coaching job was terrible. Chase talks about landing at NAIA Campbellsville University in Kentucky and the challenges that came with the job. He details a challenging Boston Marathon experience in April that gave him more than he expected and how an Uber Eats saved the day during his stay in Boston. Chase tells about the good and bad during his prep wrestling days and why he went with running in college instead of wrestling. He is asked about his many tattoos and he talks about what some of them mean to him. Lance is asked a question for once and Chase briefly stumps him about the topic.

Per quanto io non corra da così tanto tempo, sono praticamente 8 anni, e da ancor meno lo faccia su sentiero, ho ragionato di recente sul come sia cambiato molto questo sport negli ultimi anni.Mi sono interrogato sulle novità, sul come è cambiato il modo di preparare una gara nel corso del tempo.Lo so che detto da me che sono relativamente giovane di questo ambiente possa sembrare strano. Ma è altrettanto vero che i cambiamenti sono così repentini, che anche solo pochi anni possono “pesare” parecchio e possono modificare pure qualcosa di significativo.E, da buon amante delle liste, ho quindi buttato giù un elenco delle cose che sono cambiate e tuttora stanno cambiando circa gli allenamenti per il trail running.----------------------Supporta questo progetto tramite un contributo mensile su Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/da0a42In alternativa, puoi fare una donazione "una-tantum".PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/lorenzomaggianiBuymeacoffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/da0a42Acquista il materiale ufficiale del podcast: https://da0a42.home.blog/shop/Iscriviti a "30 giorni da runner": https://da0a42.home.blog/30-giorni-da-runner/Seguimi!Canale Telegram: https://t.me/da0a42Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/da0a42/Profilo Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/37970087Club Strava: https://www.strava.com/clubs/da0a42Sito: https://da0a42.home.blogOppure contattami!https://da0a42.home.blog/contatti/I miei microfoni:- HyperX Quadcast: https://amzn.to/3bs06wC- Rode NT-USB: https://amzn.to/4cTfaAu----------------------Un grazie a tutti i miei sostenitori:Matteo Bombelli, Antonio Palma, George Caldarescu, Dorothea Cuccini, Alessandro Rizzo, Calogero Augusta, Mauro Del Quondam, Claudio Pittarello, Luca Felicetti, Andrea Borsetto, Massimo Ferretti, Andrea Pompini, Joseph Djeke, Luca Demartino, Laura Bernacca, Vincenzo Iannotta, Patty Bellia, Pasquale Castrilli, Laura Ravani, Xavier Fallico, Nicola Monachello, Gabriele Orazi, Matilde Bisighini, Carmine Cuccuru, Letizia Beoni, Giulia Rosaia, Marco Allaria, Gregorio Maggiani, Fabrizio Carbonara, Mattia Vasoli.----------------------Music credits: Feeling of Sunlight by Danosongs - https://danosongs.comDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/da-0-a-42-il-mio-podcast-sul-running--4063195/support.

This week on The Back of the Pack Podcast: Second Wind, our July series Why Are We Like This? continues with a look at the social side of endurance sports. Runners and endurance athletes bond over some very strange things: hills, heat, porta-potties, chafing, finish lines, race medals, bad decisions, and the phrase “never again” even though we are absolutely going to do it again. This episode dives into how shared suffering can create fast friendships, whether it happens during a rough race, on a brutal hill, at mile 10 of a half marathon, or through the shared heartbreak and celebration of something like London Marathon lottery day. We talk about the race friend pipeline, where strangers become familiar faces, familiar faces become running buddies, and running buddies become road trip partners, run club regulars, post-race beer companions, and family. There is also plenty of love for the post-race story economy, because runners trade tales of heat, hills, blisters, bathroom emergencies, forgotten registrations, and miserable races like sacred currency. We also dig into endurance peer pressure, group bad ideas, FOMO, and why “come on, it'll be fun” has probably caused more suffering than most training plans. But this episode also reminds us that life outside the miles still matters, whether that means concerts, lake weekends, family obligations, recovery, or simply putting the Garmin down for a while. Finally, we look at why run clubs work, especially places like Chasing Rabbits Run Club, where the miles matter, but the conversations afterward may matter even more. Why are we like this? Because somewhere between the miles, the misery, the medals, the group photos, and the parking lot conversations, we found our people.

How do you make people care about your documentary?Facts alone rarely make an audience care. The emotional core of a documentary lives somewhere else. In this episode of Documentary First, filmmaker Christian Taylor tells the story of how she found the heartbeat her film about the Battle of Carentan was missing. It was not in the archives. It was in the memories of a man who was six years old when the war came for his town.For months, Christian's film Heroes of Carentan felt stuck in what one WWII veteran called the “data of history,” the maps, the dates, and the military maneuvers. Everything shifted when she met Yves Marchais. In June 1944, Yves was a small boy living under German occupation in Carentan, France. This year he sent Christian thirteen letters recording what he remembered, and those letters gave the historical record a soul.It comes down to a lesson every documentary filmmaker learns the hard way: audiences do not connect to issues or information, they connect to people. Anchored by a line from Pfc. John E. Fitzgerald, a runner for Medal of Honor recipient Lt. Col. Robert Cole, this episode argues that the essence of history is not its record but its heartbeat. Yves calls his own account his “hummingbird's share,” not the whole war, but the small, vivid pieces that passed before a child's eyes. His story becomes a lesson in telling a big historical event through one small, personal one.In this episode, you'll learn:Why facts and figures alone rarely move an audienceHow to find the emotional core, or heartbeat, of a documentaryWhy audiences connect to people, not to issues or informationHow to tell a big historical story through one small, personal oneWhat Pfc. John E. Fitzgerald meant when he warned that history can lose its heartbeatWhy one person's story can carry an entire historical eventWhat the “hummingbird's share” is, and why small memories matter more than big onesHow the Battle of Carentan looked through the eyes of a six-year-old boyHow Yves Marchais and his family survived the occupation and liberation of CarentanWhy the story a filmmaker starts with is often not the story worth tellingWhat the series Band of Brothers has to do with the real Battle of CarentanHow to know when your film has finally found its emotional coreChapters:00:00 Meeting a survivor of Carentan01:15 13 letters and Band of Brothers02:26 Life under German occupation04:01 D-Day and the kitchen sink05:27 Fleeing an empty Carentan06:59 The trench and liberation08:45 Colonel Cole and the runner10:57 The lesson: find your heartbeatFrequently Asked Questions:How do you find the emotional core of a documentary?Facts and chronology rarely move an audience on their own. The emotional core, what host Christian Taylor calls the heartbeat, usually lives in one person's specific, lived experience rather than in the broad historical record. In this episode she describes finding it in the memories of Yves Marchais, a French civilian who was six during the Battle of Carentan, and building the film's meaning around his point of view.How do you make an audience care about a documentary subject?Audiences connect to people far more than to issues or information. The most reliable way to make viewers care about a large subject, a war, a movement, a crisis, is to tell it through one specific person whose experience makes the bigger story personal. In this episode, Christian Taylor builds her film about the Battle of Carentan around a single child's memories rather than the broad military record.What was the Battle of Carentan?The Battle of Carentan was a June 1944 fight for the town of Carentan in Normandy, France, a key objective linking the American forces landing at Utah and Omaha beaches. The 101st Airborne Division, including units later made famous by Band of Brothers, fought to take the town, which was liberated on June 12, 1944.Who is Yves Marchais?Yves Marchais is a French man who, as a six-year-old boy, lived through the German occupation and the 1944 liberation of Carentan. Decades later he recorded his childhood memories of the war in a series of letters, which became the emotional core of Christian Taylor's documentary. He calls his account his “hummingbird's share,” the small, true pieces of history he witnessed firsthand.What did Pfc. John Fitzgerald mean about history losing its heartbeat?Pfc. John E. Fitzgerald, who served as a runner for Medal of Honor recipient Lt. Col. Robert Cole, wrote that the data of history should not lose its heartbeat as it becomes information, or all that remains is the record without the essence. Christian Taylor uses that idea as the key to her film: the facts of a battle matter, but the human story is what makes people care.About the Film and the Story:Heroes of Carentan is Christian Taylor's in-production documentary about the 1944 liberation of Carentan, Normandy, told through the people who lived it. Yves Marchais was six years old during the battle. His firsthand account of the occupation, the bombing, his family's escape through a deserted town, and the moment of liberation forms the emotional center of the film. This episode is the second part of Christian's story about finding that center.About Documentary First:Documentary First is a weekly podcast about the craft, business, and truth of documentary filmmaking. Host Christian Taylor is a documentary filmmaker (The Girl Who Wore Freedom), actor, voice actor, and podcast host based in the United States. Each week she explores what it takes to tell true stories that move people, through interviews with filmmakers and solo episodes drawn from her own work.Resources Mentioned:The Colonel and the Runner, by Pfc.

This week on The Back of the Pack Podcast, we recap one of the hardest and strangest endurance weekends of the year: the Argo Half Marathon and Kyle's first official bike race, Lizard Under the Skillet. First up is Argo, the infamous “finishers only” half marathon on Argo Road, where the hills are rude, the sun is merciless, and the shirt at the end is earned the hard way. With a 9:00 a.m. July start, full sun, 60% humidity, a dew point of 71, and a finishing heat index of 102 degrees, this year's Argo was even nastier than expected. Kyle walks through the brutal out-and-back course, the repeated trips past the cooler, the lifesaving water stops and misters, the climb up Slaughter Hill, and the final push to earn the fluorescent finisher shirt. Despite the heat, the hills, and the general “why did we do this again?” energy, Kyle finished four minutes faster than last year, proving that even tiny victories on a monstrous course deserve celebration. Then, less than 24 hours later, it was off to Lawrence, Kansas for the Lizard Under the Skillet ride with the Lawrence Bicycle Club and Kyle's first official bike event. The 31-mile Gecko distance brought country roads, bike etiquette lessons, SAG stops, one very important helmet-wearing rubber duck named Crash, and a whole new appreciation for padded shorts. From scorching hills to sore legs, numb bike-seat regrets, and the realization that Argo followed by a bike race may not be the smartest scheduling choice, this episode is a full weekend of bad ideas that somehow turned into big wins.

Descubrimos su rol dentro de Salomon y cómo vivió desde dentro los años dorados de la marca, incluyendo la experiencia de tener a Kilian Jornet en el equipo durante tantos años y su posterior salida para montar su propia marca. Hablamos también de cómo fue él quien descubrió a Sara Alonso y cómo vivió su salida, del inesperado fichaje de Andreu Blanes, y de cómo Salomon ha sido pionera en las zapatillas de gravel. Charlamos además sobre el mundo de los streamings y la importancia cada vez mayor de las redes sociales en la carrera de los atletas. Una conversación imprescindible para entender el trail running desde dentro, contada por alguien que lo ha vivido en primera línea durante años.

AP correspondent Donna Warder reports on an annual tradition in Spain.

Send us Fan MailMelanie Cote spent years believing runners were a certain kind of person — thin, disciplined, elite — and she wasn't it. So when a coworker organized a 5K, she showed up to cheer instead of run, too embarrassed to try. A year later, she crossed that same start line. Today she's a half-marathoner who runs as @the.curvy.runner, and her story is for every mom who's ever thought "I'm not a runner."Carrie and Melanie get into starting couch-to-5K in your late 40s, why consistency beats performance, the gear struggles nobody warns curvy runners about, running through perimenopause, and letting go of the diet-culture rules we grew up with. It's a conversation about giving yourself permission — to take up space, to take the trip, to be the mom you're proud of.Time Stamps0:00 introduction5:08 how our relationship with running has changed8:43 separating running from weight loss11:29 becoming more active as kids get older14:56 being flexible to be consistent19:55 being creative with winter running25:32 finding community in running29:30 deciding to do a Disney half marathon34:02 running as a curvy woman43:13 dealing with hormonal changes48:40 quick hit questionsCONNECT WITH CARRIEIG: https://www.instagram.com/carriepagliano/Website: https://carriepagliano.comCourse waitlist: https://course.carriepagliano.com/RSAWLCONNECT WITH MELANIE:IG: https://www.instagram.com/the.curvy.runner/Website: www.thecurvyrunners.comThe Active Mom Podcast is A Real Moms' Guide to pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause & beyond for active moms & the professionals who help them in their journey.  This show has been a long time in the making!   You can expect conversation with moms and professionals from all aspects of the industry.   If you're like me, you don't have a lot of free time (heck, you're probably listening at 1.5x speed), so theses interviews will be quick hits to get your the pertinent information FAST!  If you love what you hear, share the podcast with a friend and leave us a 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ rating and review.

This week on The Back of the Pack Podcast: Second Wind, our July series Why Are We Like This? continues with a look at the endurance decisions that sound terrible on paper but somehow end up on our calendars anyway. With the Argo Half Marathon and its 2,900 feet of elevation waiting on Saturday, followed by the Lizard Under the Skillet 31-mile bike race and an Evanescence concert on Sunday, this episode asks why runners, cyclists, and endurance people keep signing up for things that sound more like warnings than weekend plans. We talk about why hard courses tempt us, why hills expose our weaknesses, and why a flat course may give us a time, but a brutal course gives us a story. Argo becomes the perfect example of a race where effort matters more than pace, walking hills is smart instead of shameful, and simply finishing can be the real victory. We also dive into the Bad Decision Hall of Fame: signing up before checking elevation, stacking races, chasing medals, falling for peer pressure, and pretending a bike race after a hilly half marathon counts as recovery. This episode also gets into the fine line between brave and dumb, especially when heat, hydration, fatigue, elevation, and recovery are all part of the equation. There is plenty of humor here, but also a real reminder that challenge should stretch us, not wreck us. And as Kyle steps into the biking world as a beginner, we talk about how humbling it can be to start something new again after years of experience in running. Why are we like this? Because sometimes a bad decision with a bib number reminds us exactly what we are made of.

Todd Marentette is the co-host of the RUNegade Podcast - and he partnered with Jason to help him with a breakthrough.  For years, Todd has run almost the same time in the marathon: just over four hours. He's given Jason full control of his training and 10 months of runway to do the impossible: break his plateau, run a massive PR, and change how he thinks about training. This episode originally aired on the RUNegade Podcast (Apple, Spotify). We discuss:  The importance of cycles and dividing time into distinct seasons Varying your training focus to achieve maximum progress Race-specific work vs. HR-based workouts How we plan to break Todd out of his stagnating marathon times The neuromuscular component of race pacing A lot more!

What is fitness, really? VO2 max, lactate threshold, running economy, durability, and neuromuscular power — in this episode we break down the five distinct systems hiding inside that one word, how each one develops, which respond fastest to training, and which age best. If you've ever chased a watch number and wondered why your race results didn't follow, this framework explains why "getting fitter" is actually five separate questions — and how periodizing your training over years brings them together on race day.We also answer a timely listener question about running in wildfire smoke: what PM2.5 actually does to your lungs, how to use AQI (and its limits), CDC guardrails for exercising outside, when to move to the treadmill, and how to set your line in the sand before race day — including what to do if smoke rolls in mid-race.Plus Hot or Not: gravel running, Garmin's heat acclimation metric, photochromic lenses, and whether bells or eye patches actually deter mountain lions (spoiler: your voice works better).Send us your Hot or Nots and listener questions: microcosmcoaching@gmail.comCurious about coaching?

This week on The Back of the Pack Podcast, we recap a busy Fourth of July weekend full of fireworks, frantic huskies, Patreon gratitude, race reviews, and questionable scheduling decisions. Kyle starts by thanking new Patreon supporters and talking honestly about how listener support, social media interaction, and community engagement help keep the podcast moving forward. From there, we head to Clinton, Missouri for the Old Glory Days 5K, a small-town Friday night race attached to a much bigger Fourth of July festival full of carnival rides, food, music, fireworks, and classic small-town America energy. The course may have ended up short due to a misplaced turnaround volunteer, but the race still delivered hills, humidity, a beautiful evening atmosphere, a great medal, and one unforgettable trail of pre-race funnel cake regret. After a quick turnaround, it was back to Kansas City for the Ward Parkway 4 on the 4th, where heat, humidity, patriotic outfits, familiar Rock the Parkway roads, and a much-improved medal made for a solid holiday morning race. Kyle also talks about managing overheating on course, including the surprisingly helpful trick of holding ice in the left hand during the final mile. The weekend wrapped with a bike ride that became Kyle's longest adult ride so far, right up until a blown back tire led to the dreaded biker walk of shame. And with Summer Argo and Kyle's first official bike race waiting next weekend, this episode is part race recap, part warning label, and part evidence that runners will sign up for almost anything if enough friends are doing it.

Marc Hopkins, author of Hard Things, set out to write a book about running the Bigfoot 200, but what emerged was something much deeper. In this conversation, he shares how endurance running became the lens through which he uncovered old stories about self-worth, fear, identity, and the belief that one more finish line would finally make him enough. Together, we explore why runners chase hard things, the difference between simply enduring life and living with purpose, and how the trail can expose what's really driving us. Marc also opens up about surviving a 99% heart blockage, learning when grit is a strength and when it's time to stop, and why vulnerability may be the toughest skill endurance athletes ever develop. If you've ever wondered why you run, or found yourself learning more about your life than your splits during a long run, this conversation will stay with you long after the episode ends.

Timestamps 00:00 | Why We Chase Hard Things Marc explains how a book about the Bigfoot 200 became an honest look at identity, purpose, and the reasons we pursue difficult goals. 08:00 | Enduring vs. Endurance The conversation explores the difference between simply surviving life and intentionally moving toward something meaningful. 18:30 | The Finish Line Won't Make You Whole Marc shares how he believed one more race would finally prove his worth, and why that mindset eventually fell apart. 30:30 | Lessons From a 99% Heart Blockage A life-threatening diagnosis forced Marc to rethink strength, vulnerability, and what it really means to listen to your body. 43:30 | The Pebble in Your Shoe A simple refrigerator magnet from Marc's childhood became one of the biggest life lessons in the entire book. 49:00 | Why the Next Finish Line Isn't the Answer The hosts discuss identity, self-worth, and why chasing bigger races can never solve what's happening inside. 53:30 | When Can You Finally Call Yourself a Runner? Marc explains why comparison steals joy and why every runner, regardless of pace or body type, belongs on the trail.

The crew of The Godsinger meet Lemo Saeve of The Timberflow Mercantile, who offers them a job with high stakes: pirates are strangling trade across the Mesoreia, and he needs a daring crew to put an end to it.

Jacob's long flight ends when God stops the runner and begins a slow, costly transformation from fear-driven schemer to dependent worshiper. Pastor Bryan traces Genesis 32–33 to show how God interrupts Jacob's patterns, confronts his self-reliance, and leads him into a new identity, a new way of walking, and restored relationships with God and others. Key Takeaways: - Stop running; surrender rather than scheme.   - Make honest prayer and repentance your first response.   - Accept God's reshaping—even the “limp”—as daily dependence. -Featuring Bryan Ost

Tricia Katebini shares how her passion for running began with playing soccer in her youth and grew into a central part of her life after college, especially once she became a mother. She describes how the camaraderie of the running community has helped her connect with lifelong friends, often revolving around group runs and destination races. Tricia notes that running taught her valuable lessons about perseverance and leadership, emphasizing the importance of not leaving anyone behind and bringing her team along at work. She highlights her firm's commitment to work-life balance, such as offering summer Fridays and actively monitoring for burnout to protect employees' well-being. Tricia encourages others to share their hobbies at work, pointing out that these connections foster deeper relationships and a stronger corporate culture. She believes everyone has multiple layers, and sharing those passions can help people feel seen and valued in their careers. Episode Highlights · Running started with playing soccer, became more serious in college, and later turned into a community activity after having a child. . The running community fosters strong friendships and camaraderie, sometimes making race trips enjoyable even if the race itself is canceled. · Experiences and mindset from running, such as perseverance and bringing others along, translate directly into leadership approaches at work.. Sharing personal interests like running strengthens workplace connections and forms unique bonds with colleagues. . Encouraging everyone to share and talk about their "And" opens up opportunities for connection and learning, as people are multi-layered and have much more to them than just their professional roles

Today we’re continuing the Female Founder Series with author, podcaster, and co-founder of Another Mother Runner, Dimity McDowell. Dimity was one of the first people I really knew in the running space over a decade ago when I started dipping my toes into podcasting and becoming part of the broader running community beyond my hometown of Indianapolis. Alongside her co-founder, Sarah Bowen Shea, she helped create a movement with Another Mother Runner by providing support, encouragement, and connection to women around the country and around the world. That community continues today, and Another Mother Runner has recently found a new home with Feisty Media. As Dimity entered a new season in her own athletic journey, she wrote a beautiful book called The 27th Mile: How to Smooth the Rough Transition Out of the Running Years. She’s a former contributing editor at Runner’s World, and through this book she’s supporting anyone whose relationship with running is beginning to change. As I’ve navigated my own injury and foot surgery, this book helped me feel a little less alone. Watching other people accomplish incredible things while wondering what my own future in running might look like has been emotional, and I think learning to accept change is an important part of the process. In The 27th Mile, Dimity reckons with her decision to stop running, grieves leaving behind a sport she deeply loved, and shares how she rediscovered purpose, connection, and those endorphins on the other side. I love Dimity’s heart and everything she’s done for women in the running community over the years. And I’ll tell you what, interviewing another podcaster is always fun because they know how to have a great conversation. If you’re in any kind of transition with your own running journey, I highly recommend checking out The 27th Mile. Thanks so much for being here, and I hope you enjoy my conversation with Dimity McDowell.
