Her story flips the usual “runner interview” on its head, and it's rich in meaning.Guest journey & highlightsErica is married to a race‑director, which opened her door into the world of trail and ultra running from a different vantage point—supporting, creating, building instead of racing.On her 42‑acre farm in North Carolina (nestled between Asheville and Charlotte), she homesteads, grows endangered medicinal plants, sews sustainable slow‑fashion pieces, and dives deep into frameworks of wilderness, microbiome, community and true belonging.Her family's race event, the Hollis Hills Farm Revival (50 km, 25 k, 5 mile) is part trail run, part community fest, part land‑revival project.She speaks to how the ultra world (sometimes stereotyped as hyper‑competitive) can actually be profoundly welcoming to non‑runners, volunteers, supporters—the “behind the scenes” humans.Motivational takeaways: You don't need to be the person crossing the finish line to belong here. Contribution isn't always measured in miles. Sustainability, craft, community resilience—these are trail values too.

Send us a textIn this powerful season finale, I sit down with journalist and author Maggie Mertens (@maggiejmertens) to unpack the untold history—and future—of women in sport, running, and motherhood.Maggie is a Seattle-based writer whose work spans gender, athletics, and culture. Her book Better Faster Farther: How Running Changed Everything We Know About Women breaks down the myths that held women back for decades and highlights the stories that never made it into the headlines. After finishing her book, she returned to running at 37 and recently completed her first half marathon—proof that rewriting the narrative starts in our own lives, too.This episode dives deep into the real experiences of women who run, lift, train, and raise families while navigating outdated cultural beliefs about their bodies. From postpartum fitness to perimenopause realities, athletic identity shifts, and the mental health benefits of movement, Maggie brings clarity, honesty, and perspective we all need.We talk about:

This week we turn November's Run the Reset lens toward something every runner needs when the temps drop: a workable winter routine. Kyle lays out simple, time-based templates that keep you consistent without chasing peak-season mileage, plus the “Rule of 3” anchors—one key run, one strength day, one easy session—to define a win even in chaotic weeks. We'll talk Plan A/B/C thinking for outdoor, treadmill, or strength-only days so missed runs don't snowball into lost momentum. You'll get habit hacks (prep the night before, anchor pairing), boredom busters for the treadmill, and a quick safety checklist for dark, cold miles. We also cover strength moves that pay the biggest durability dividends and a dead-simple green-yellow-red system to know when to push or pull back. If winter usually knocks you off rhythm, this episode gives you a flexible blueprint to keep the streak alive—and your sanity intact.

Ready to plan your 2026 running schedule?  I'll explain how to plan the perfect year of training for all your running goals from 5k to the marathon. You'll learn: what happens when you don't make a strategic plan for your goals, how and when to mix up your distances and your training, and I'll explore what a well-planned yearly calendar looks like for marathoners, half marathoners, and 5k or 10k racers. This episode is going to be extremely helpful to plan out a whole year of running, but remember, you don't have to do this alone.  I still have a few more spots on the PR Team and you get a major discount when you sign up for a full year.  Imagine having the whole year sketched out for you, while allowing flexibility for life.  Each cycle blends seamlessly to the next with plenty of time for fitness building, recovery, and room to try new things.

RECENT REVIEWS: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Mental Strength Powerhouse A uniques, highly informative podcast, especially with the Mental Strength Minute that Claire gives us at the end of each episode.  In fact, Claire's “The Ultimate Race Day Guided Visualization for Runners” (episode 53 from 8/31/23) has been a game-changer for me.  I use it frequently during every marathon cycle.  It was a crucial part of the mental strength work that helped my finally BQ! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Great podcast Claire has amazing guests and I learn such valuable information from her. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Unique This podcast, in addition to featuring scientific and engaging content, has another important quality: it combines the coach's personal experience and insights on the topic and presents them in the simplest way possible.  This unique aspect makes the podcast incredibly valuable and enjoyable to listen to.

Should you run or walk with a weighted vest to get stronger or faster? Or is it just another social media fitness fad that can lead to injury? In this episode, Dr. Duane Scotti sits down with Coach Cat from the Spark Healthy Runner team to break down the science behind weighted vest training for runners.  Together, they uncover what fitness influencers often get wrong and explain when (and how) a weighted vest might actually be helpful — and when it can do more harm than good. You'll learn: - Whether weighted vests really help with bone density, weight loss, or speed - Why runners over 40 should be cautious before adding extra load - The truth behind "1 pound adds 4 pounds of pressure" on your joints - Safe alternatives to build strength without increasing injury risk - A simple, evidence-based way to strengthen your running body year-round If you've ever wondered whether a weighted vest can take your training to the next level or just add unnecessary stress to your joints, this episode is for you.  

It's the last Stephen King adaptation of the year this week when Karen Peterson (@karenmpeterson) & Derek Miranda (@DerekMiranda85) sit down to talk THE RUNNING MAN. As always, featured reviews are done in two parts, a NON-SPOILER review with letter grade and brief discussion, followed by a more in depth SPOILER review. PLOT SUMMARY: In a near-future society, The Running Man is the top-rated show on television—a deadly competition where contestants, known as Runners, must survive 30 days while being hunted by professional assassins, with every move broadcast to a bloodthirsty public and each day bringing a greater cash reward. Desperate to save his sick daughter, working-class Ben Richards (Glen Powell) is convinced by the show's charming but ruthless producer, Dan Killian (Josh Brolin), to enter the game as a last resort. But Ben's defiance, instincts, and grit turn him into an unexpected fan favorite—and a threat to the entire system. As ratings skyrocket, so does the danger, and Ben must outwit not just the Hunters, but a nation addicted to watching him fall.

In this episode, we are joined by Dr. Ebonie Rio. She is a senior Clinical Researcher at La Trobe University's Sport & Exercise Medicine Research Centre in Melbourne. With hands-on experience as a physiotherapist for Olympic and Paralympic teams, the Australian Institute of Sport, and the Australian Ballet Company, she bridges elite sports practice with rigorous scientific research. Vikas & Ebonie discussed in detail about tendons, their role in the body, how to strengthen them & how to avoid running related injuries. Here are some key takeaways:Don't stretch your Achilles when it's sore - Stretching compresses the tendon against the heel bone and can worsen pain. Instead, focus on strengthening exercises like calf raises.Tendon pain isn't inflammation - The swelling is actually water buildup from stressed tendon cells, which is why ice and anti-inflammatories don't help. Exercise is the best treatment. Every runner needs calf strength - Do 25 single-leg calf raises from flat ground (not off a step) with good alignment. This protects your Achilles, plantar fascia, and improves running efficiency.Flat feet aren't a curse - Foot shape doesn't increase injury risk or limit your running ability. Calf weakness, not flat feet, is the real culprit behind most lower leg pain.Space out high-impact sessions - Tendons need time between running sessions to adapt and recover. Three runs spread across the week is better than Friday-Saturday-Sunday back-to-back training.About Vikas Singh:Vikas Singh, an MBA from Chicago Booth, worked at Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, APGlobale, and Reliance before coming up with the idea of democratizing fitness knowledge and helping beginners get on a fitness journey.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are back-to-back World Series champions, but that doesn't mean they're perfect. One notable weakness the past few seasons, including in the World Series, has been a handful of pitchers who are notably bad at holding runners on base. Clint Pasillas and Jeff Snider look into that weakness as one potential way the Dodgers can improve on the margins this offseason. Share your thoughts in the comments section!

He critiques a video from 'Talking With Docs' that suggests running may be harmful to the knees. Boyd emphasizes that cartilage can adapt to stress and that research shows no direct correlation between running and arthritis. He also highlights the importance of strength training and resilience in maintaining joint health, while disagreeing with some advice given in the video regarding shoe selection and surface types for running. Ultimately, he advocates for the benefits of running and encourages runners to continue their activity for overall health.TakeawaysRunning is not inherently bad for your knees.Cartilage can adapt positively to stress.Research shows no direct link between running and arthritis.Strength training is essential for runners' joint health.Resilience is crucial for preventing injuries.Proper shoe selection is not the top priority.Running on hard surfaces is acceptable if pain-free.Biomechanics play a significant role in running efficiency.Runners should focus on maintaining activity levels.Overall health benefits of running outweigh potential risks.

We're talking Blade Runner and it's sequel in this week's episode of (Not So) Live from Asteroid G. Recently, both Mikes watched the Blade Runner duology, because most sci-fi cinephiles consider the first film to be an absolute classic of the genre, and, well, we left feeling unimpressed. At least about the first one. Blade Runner 2049 is actually pretty good. Not so good: Jared Leto. Come in and join the discussion.

223. Running Biomechanics, Gait Re-training, Training Load & Injury Risk in RunnersDoes how you run impact your risk of injury? How much can you safely increase your training before your risk of injury starts to climb?In this episode, we dive into the research on running biomechanics, training volume and practical implications on risk of injury; exploring what the evidence actually says (and what social media often gets wrong).We discuss the evidence we have for running biomechanics and explain how clinicians and runners alike can interpret data to reduce injury risk without falling into oversimplified conclusions.We discuss:• How running injury risk changes with increases in training volume• What the research says about 10%, 20%, and 30% load increases• Running biomechanics and how they influence running injury risk; hip drop, pronation, cadence and footstrike• The evidence for gait-retraining, cadence, running cues and knee painIf you've ever wondered how you running form influences your injury risk, then this is the episode for you.We are dispelling myths and getting to the core of what the research says. This episode will help you see the science more clearly and apply it more practically.Follow Us:Instagram: ⁠@strongerstride⁠ | ⁠@sophielane⁠ | ⁠@lydia_mckay⁠YouTube: ⁠Watch on YouTube⁠Discount Codes:TAILWINDSTRONG – 15% off Tailwind NutritionSTRONGERSTRIDE – 15% off Vivobarefoot shoesSTRONGER15 – 15% off Skorcha SunscreenThanks for tuning in!TSSP x

This week on The Back of the Pack Podcast: Second Wind, we continue our Run the Reset series by taking on one of the hardest parts of recovery — the mental side. Kyle dives into the “post-race hangover” that so many runners feel once the medals are hung and the adrenaline fades. We talk about why it's normal to lose motivation, how to quiet the negative voice in your head, and how to rediscover your why when running feels more like work than joy. From practical tools like journaling and unplugging from tracking apps, to learning to run just for fun again, this episode reminds us that resting the mind is every bit as important as resting the body. It's not about giving up — it's about remembering why you started.

Sam Clements talks to writer and director Edgar Wright about his new film, the action-packed adaptation of Stephen King's The Running Man, in cinemas now.  In a near-future society, The Running Man is the top-rated show on television—a deadly competition where contestants, known as Runners, must survive 30 days while being hunted by professional assassins, with every move broadcast to a bloodthirsty public and each day bringing a greater cash reward. Desperate to save his sick daughter, working-class Ben Richards (Glen Powell) is convinced by the show's charming but ruthless producer, Dan Killian (Josh Brolin), to enter the game as a last resort. But Ben's defiance, instincts, and grit turn him into an unexpected fan favourite—and a threat to the entire system. As ratings skyrocket, so does the danger, and Ben must outwit not just the Hunters but a nation addicted to watching him fall. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts. Follow us on Spotify.

This morning I was on a consultation call with a runner at 4:30 a.m. and he's been suffering from a plantar plate injury.  But he's been doing pretty well. He actually just finished his first run! Now, what I asked him about was his plan for his next run. What he said, made me uneasy.  It seemed risky, and I started kind of squirming as he was describing his plan to me. It wasn't really a bad plan. It wasn't really a crazy plan. But based on all the experience I have working with injured runners, I knew it was riskier than it needed to be.  And this is why I decided to record this episode. Because it happens to almost every injured runner!  So don't let it happen to you! Today on the Doc On The Run podcast we're talking about why runners get re-injured one to two months into healing.

On this episode of The Movie Podcast, Daniel and Shahbaz are joined legendary Writer and Director Edgar Wright and the one and only Lee Pace to discuss their new film THE RUNNING MAN.

Yup... I tried the “white powder” every pro whispers about—and almost ruined a race.I road-tested baking soda for running: what it is, how it buffers lactate, and where it actually helps. I break down the science in plain English, show my four real-world tests (including a DIY version of the pricey pro formula), and map out who should even consider it. You'll see the trade-offs—timing, dose, gut risk—and when a tiny 1–3% bump is worth the stress. If you're chasing short, hard efforts, there's a smart way to run the experiment. If you're not, there's a better place to put your energy.Key TakeawaysBaking soda can help in short, hard efforts (about 30 seconds to 12 minutes).Dose and timing matter; gut issues are common and can ruin race day.Test a system in training; for most runners, consistent training beats supplements.Timestamps[00:00:38] How Baking Soda Works for Runners [00:02:02] Do This To Help Another Runner [00:02:32] The Science Behind Baking Soda Buffering In Running [00:04:46] Experiment 1: This Actually Works [00:06:39] Use This To Make Your Own Baking Soda and Run Faster [00:07:05] Experiment 2: My Gut Rebels [00:08:54] Experiment 3: Cracking The Maurten Baking Soda Code [00:10:19] Experiment 4: The Truth [00:11:47] Do You Really Need Baking Soda To Run Faster?

In this myth-busting episode, we dive deep into the age-old warning that has haunted runners for decades: "You're going to destroy your knees." We expose the flaw in the common "wear and tear" analogy, explaining why your body isn't a static machine but a dynamic system built to adapt and grow. We put on our lab coats to reveal the groundbreaking science that turns this myth on its head, detailing how running is actually protectivefor long-term joint health. We'll explain how running strengthens your bones via Wolff's Law and how the repetitive impact acts as a vital pump, nourishing avascular cartilage—the sponge-like tissue that cushions your joints. You'll learn the difference between the constant, static load of excess weight (a proven risk factor for arthritis) and the adaptive, dynamic load of running, which builds stronger, more resilient tissue with every step.We also provide a clear, practical guide for how to run smarter and protect your joints for a lifetime. Learn how to manage impact forces by increasing your cadence (aiming for $approx 170-180$ steps per minute) and the crucial role of strength training—specifically targeting your glutes and hips—in stabilizing the entire kinetic chain. We address the most common causes of running-related knee pain, explaining that issues like runner's knee are overwhelmingly caused by training errors ("too much, too soon") and muscular imbalances, not a fundamental breakdown of the joint itself. Finally, we explore the vast, unspoken benefits of running, confirming its status as one of the single best activities for boosting your cardiovascular health, metabolic function, and mental well-being.We are now on YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@Lettyruns·  Our website: www.marathonmedia.us ·  Our Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/runningpodcast/ ·  Our Amazon Storefront: ⁠https://www.amazon.com/shop/runningpodcast·  Join our Facebook group: ⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/speedstriders/ ·  Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@RunningPodcast Discount Codes for Runners: https://www.runswag.com

We hit the road to Lincoln for the Good Life Halfsy and… let's just say the weekend had range. From an expo with unexpected vibes to a race morning that felt like winter crashing the party, nothing went quite by the book—in the best “you had to be there” way. Kyle shares the little pre-start misadventure that nearly derailed his calm, the mid-race surprise that changed his game plan, and the finish-line moment that still made it all worth it. There's talk of medals, community, and a frozen twist you won't see coming. Plus, a quick peek at what's next for The Pack (including a challenge weekend and a very intriguing themed race tip). Bundle up and press play.

This might have been the Halloween episode, but it isn't. Amy gets judged by local shopkeepers, didn't lose her dog, and her mum runs a bit. Stu goes for a walk, watches some runners, and reflects on post-industrial decline across the UK's marginalised communities, citing how political choices have dismantled local economies and hollowed out the sense of civic pride and cultural belonging.

Burnout can happen to any runner, regardless of fitness or experience. That lack of any desire to run is nothing to be ashamed of - but it's also not something to ignore. In this episode, we discuss the causes of running burnout and how to navigate burnout and build back.

Dive into the science of training intensity with Stacy Sims, who's here to explain why the RPE scale (Rate of Perceived Exertion) is your most reliable metric, and how concepts like "moderate exercise" can be misleading.  You'll learn how to effectively use stress to build fitness and the importance of a foundational base before pursuing maximum-effort workouts KEY TAKEAWAYS: RPE is Key: The Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) scale is an essential tool for measuring how hard your body is working. A "10 out of 10" effort is when you are physically stopped and "literally can't do anything more" (the "vomit scale"). The Vague "Moderate": "Moderate intensity" is a general guideline for the public, often representing a "gray zone" that may not optimise results for people with a training history. Foundation First: Building a base of fitness is crucial, especially as you age, before engaging in high-intensity work, as pushing too hard too soon can reveal underlying health issues. The Power of Stress: Movement is medicine, and the body requires stress (like high-intensity bursts) to adapt and survive well, pushing it out of its comfortable, algorithmically flat existence.

This week on The Back of the Pack Podcast: Second Wind, we kick off a brand-new November series called Run the Reset — and it all starts with the body. After months of racing, training, sweating, and chasing goals, it's time to slow down and rebuild. Kyle dives into why rest isn't weakness, how active recovery keeps you healthy, and the mindset shift that turns “taking time off” into an essential part of progress. We'll talk about listening to your body, fueling for repair instead of performance, and how to find balance between motion and maintenance. If you've been pushing hard all year and need permission to hit pause, this episode gives you exactly that — with the reminder that rest isn't quitting; it's the comeback phase.
