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.

Some runners rely almost exclusively on their heart rate to tell them how hard or how easy their runs are and some even plan their entire training around heart rate zones. The only problem is, well, heart rate training is problematic. So why do so many runners use it? And should you? Let's find out. Today, I'm joined by one of my favorite running coaches, Elisabeth Scott from Running Explained. We go over: The pros and cons of heart rate training How you can determine your max heart rate without going to a lab, and She explains why common formulas and heart rate zones might be more confusing than helpful. If you've ever struggled with keeping your heart rate low on an easy run or wondering if it's getting too high on a workout, we'll get to the heart of the matter in this episode. Welcome to the Planted Runner. I'm Coach Claire Bartholic and my mission is to help you improve your running, your mindset, and your life with science-backed training and plant-based nutrition. If you need more help, you can order my book The Planted Runner: Running Your Best With Plant-Based Nutrition wherever you get books or request a copy from your local library.

Welcome to season 2 episode 15 of The Fuel Run Recover podcast! This week I'm bringing you our very first panel discussion, with not one, but TWO fellow running coaches to talk about returning to running after babies! In this episode we discuss some of the challenges runners can face post-partum, but also why your potential as a runner doesn't need to go out the window after having kids! Erin Van Schyndle is a Postpartum Run Coach and Personal Trainer. She has been working in prenatal and postpartum fitness for 14 years and is a UESCA certified run coach. She has run everything from 5ks to marathons and 70.3 triathlon distances. Erin became passionate about helping postpartum runners after her own postpartum running experience was anything but easy. It seemed like any time she got some momentum, she would get injured, sick, or burnt out. She finally reached out to a physical therapist and run coach who specifically worked with postpartum women. It was a complete game changer. After Erin had such a great experience with a coach, she got her run coaching certification and took additional training on postpartum running. She loves helping other postpartum runners get back to the sport they love. You can find Erin at therunningdoula.com and @erintherunningdoula on instagram. Jessie is a Boston Qualifying runner who is on a journey to complete a marathon in all 50 states began as a way to visit friends and travel since has completed 25 marathons (in 23 states) along with multiple 5Ks, 10Ks, and half marathons. She has also had her experience as a triathlete completing many Sprint and Olympic distance triathlons along with a half Ironman. Her motivation has allowed her to self-coach herself to PRs after reading multiple running books before finally deciding to get her RRCA running coach certification in 2021, to be able to help other runners improve their running and find the thrill as well. Her current PRs are a 19:32 5K, 1:30 half marathon, and 3:13 marathon. She has her own run coaching business Running with Roses and also assists with run coaching for Running Explained.

What IS discipline and how do we cultivate it? Do you struggle to stay "motivated" and be consistent? Do you believe that discipline is about sacrifice, denial, and rigidly inflexible scheduling? Coach Elisabeth explores the concepts of discipline, motivation, and willpower in this solo episode! Discipline & willpower are often associated with self-denial, with struggle, with sacrifice, but that's the wrong way to approach behavior change. Self-discipline is the ability to manage your thoughts, emotions, or behavior in the face of temptation in order to achieve a specific goal, and what your GOAL is and WHY you're doing it feed into your ability to be consistent in working towards that goal. Learn about extrinsic vs intrinsic motivation, process vs outcome goals, and how our available resources impact our ability to be consistent in the long term! -- Elisabeth Scott is the founder and head coach of Running Explained.

On this episode of the podcast, Nathan and Matt are joined by a very special guest: Elisabeth Scott of Running Explained! Elisabeth lends us her coaching expertise to answer all of your (and our) training and racing questions: favorite workouts, how to understand heart rate data, burnout, Strava drama, and more! Tune in for a enlightening and fascinating discussion that's sure to improve your running journey! Elisabeth started Running Explained with the mission to help runners of all experiences and abilities become students of the sport and understand the how, what, and why of running! Although active in sports growing up (including swimming, cross-country, and downhill skiing), running just to run was never on her mind! After a long stretch of inactivity through college and her late twenties, Elisabeth picked up running at the age of 29 and set the goal of running a local 5k... just to "get in shape!" Within 6 months, she had run a 5k, 10k, half marathon, and full marathon, finishing her first half in 1:56 and her first full in 4:05 (which at the time was devasting... and in retrospect is something she is eminently proud of). This "crash course" in running (including learning a lot about what not to do) fueled the inspiration for the work she does today. You can find her online everywhere @runningexplained.

Not all advice, however well-intentioned, is good advice. And some advice is downright bad! Coach Elisabeth addressed some "bad running advice", from the misguided to the misunderstood & misconstrued, to the downright dangerous. How NOT to train effectively When NOT to push through the pain What DOESN'T determine your readiness to run a marathon Why it's BAD when your body stops sweating Taking hydration/fueling DOESN'T slow you down There's NO one size fits all plan for your goals Coach Elisabeth is the founder and Head Coach of Running Explained; her goal is to help educate runners of all abilities and experience levels whatever their goals are to become better, smarter, faster runners!

You just have to be consistent about what you're doing.” (15:45) “Gaining those gears on your bike is really important, but what you probably don't realize is that there is a gear that is your easy gear. There is a gear that is a low intensity running zone that a lot of runners who start like I did - running everything really hard - because that's what they're used to. They don't understand the importance of slowing down when they can - when they have the fitness to - to run in that easy effort zone.” (18:18) “I love talking about running.

Is race day coming up? Whether this is your first big race or you're a seasoned vet, this episode will help you be sure that you don't miss a critical step of your race day prep! In this episode, you'll learn: Top tips and advice for preparing for race days How to optimize your nutrition as a runner Planning your race gear & logistics: travel, lodging, strategy, and clothing The mental race: expert pacing tips & managing expectations and anxiety What to do (mentally and physically) before and after you cross the finish line Plus, get our free race day guide checklist here so you can have the peace of mind you have everything you need! If this is your first big race you don't really know what to expect. Hopefully, your taper has been going well and you are starting to dream about all the possibilities of how the race will go. But your actual race day is uncharted territory. So today, we're going to go over all the things that you need to pay attention to and plan for on race day. Because when you prepare for as many details as possible, you are setting yourself for the best race you can run. Now, if this is not your first marathon, this is a perfect refresher course to make sure that you don't forget anything. Your goal is to take away as many decisions as possible on the day itself, so you are ready to run with a calm mind, knowing that you've done everything right. You want to control the things that are within your control and let everything else go. To help me out with this race day prep episode, I invited Coach Elisabeth Scott to the show. Elisabeth is a marathoner, coach and podcast host at runningexplained.co. What I love about Elisabeth is that she takes complicated running topics and breaks them down into really easy explanations. Elisabeth found running like many of us do, by just wanting to get in shape and change her outlook on life. And she made a lot of mistakes along the way. I'll let her explain more about that, but I think that's what makes her so relatable and interesting. We go into all the details about what you should eat and wear and how to plan every little thing you can to ensure that your big day is as stress free as possible. Also at the end of the show, I'll share a little story about a race day that I didn't plan so well and how that went. Here's a hint–it didn't go great.
