In today's episode, I interview Claire Boyce and Travis Bond from Upward Sports/Upward Running and the Kinda Fast podcast about running, identity, and keeping Jesus at the center of fitness—especially when injury interrupts training. If you're a faith-driven runner or fitness enthusiast who feels discouraged by injuries or even too intimidated to start, this episode is for you. What we'll cover: Imposter syndrome and defining what it means to be a runner Practical ways to avoid making fitness an idol Lessons from recurring injuries Rekindling a love for running and embracing all paces My hope is that you'll walk away with a fresh perspective on running, faith, and what "winning" means to you on your fitness journey. "Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope."

Daniel Rowland and Mikael are back for another research roundup with four recent studies. What blood biomarkers do and do not tell you about training load in elite triathletes, why two athletes with the same VO2max can have very different thresholds, what actually predicts running injuries in a cohort of 5,200 runners, and whether supersets deliver the same strength gains in a third less gym time. HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS: VLaMax (maximal glycolytic flux) and metabolic thresholds: the first evidence in real athletes that at a given VO2max, a higher glycolytic rate means a lower threshold power. How VLaMax is measured, why sprint power on its own tells you little to nothing, and whether you can and should measure it and base training decisions off it. How much running is too much: in 5,205 runners tracked over 18 months, a single run 10 to 30% longer than the longest run of the previous 30 days came with a 64% higher injury risk, and bigger jumps than that led to injury risk increasing by well over 100%. Why the acute:chronic workload ratio and the classic weekly 10% rule showed little or no relationship with injury, and why you should never use the performance management chart for controlling running load. Practical long run progression for a marathon or an Ironman, and the one TrainingPeaks chart Mikael looks at more than any other. Four seasons of blood urea and creatine kinase in 20 elite (some world class) triathletes: urea tracks training load, CK does not, and a single reading against a reference range means almost nothing. Why the ratio of objective to subjective training load may be the most useful signal a coach has, and a heuristic for using it in practice. Supersets versus traditional sets: the same strength, hypertrophy, power and body composition gains in 36% less time, 44 minutes per session against 69, and how to apply that to a triathlete's lower body dominant strength programme.

Send us a text if you want to be on the Podcast & explain why!Calf pain that hits one mile into a run feels like betrayal, but it's often your body giving you useful data. We dig into what running really demands from your lower leg, why the soleus and gastrocnemius take such a beating, and how a sudden spike in volume, frequency, or intensity can push tissue past its current capacity. If you have ever blamed “tight calves” or “bad knees,” we offer a clearer lens: build the foundation first, then earn the mileage. We start with a simple, trainer-friendly screening process that works in the real world. You'll learn the quick ankle dorsiflexion wall test (think 15 degrees minimum, 20 plus as a strong target), why the joint-by-joint approach matters, and how limited ankle range can ripple up to the knee, hip, and low back. We also talk soft tissue work you can apply within scope, then retest immediately so you know if you actually changed anything before the next run. From there we move into strength and performance. Running is unilateral and repetitive, so we want single-leg stability drills, lateral hip control, and a clear benchmark: can you hit 25 to 30 single-leg calf raises through full range? If not, we lay out a practical calf training plan with progressive overload, smart rep targets, and weekly prehab that includes frontal plane work and core strength. We also cover when a competent coach should refer out and why every trainer benefits from a team that includes a DPT and registered dietitian. If this helps, subscribe, share it with a runner or trainer, and leave a review so more people stop guessing and start training with a plan.Want to become a SUCCESSFUL personal trainer?

Have you ever felt a strange sensation that seemed like a rubber band squeezing your Achilles tendon, shin, or foot? It may not be pain… But it might be one of the earliest warning signs that you're about to make a running injury worse. In this episode of the Doc On The Run Podcast, Dr. Christopher Segler introduces what he calls the "Rubber Band Sign"—a subtle sensation reported by runners with Achilles tendon injuries, tibial stress fractures, and metatarsal stress fractures that may signal increasing stress before significant pain develops. In this episode, you'll learn: • What the "Rubber Band Sign" feels like • Why runners describe it before pain develops • How it may relate to Achilles tendinosis and stress fractures • Why swelling around injured tissue may create this sensation • What to do if you notice it during your return to running • Why paying attention early may help you avoid a bigger setback The goal isn't simply recognizing another symptom. The goal is recognizing an early warning sign before your injury gets worse.

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when the body that carried you through marathons suddenly starts changing the rules on you mid-stride…?In this episode, I sit down with Whitney Heins — founder of The Mother Runners run community, host of the Mother Runners Podcast, and a lifelong runner who chased an Olympic Qualifying marathon time through years of frustrating injuries before becoming a certified running coach herself. Whitney knows the gap between what training is supposed to look like and what running through motherhood and perimenopause actually feels like… and she's here to talk about all of it.We get into the realities of masters running: how shifting hormones change training, recovery, and injury risk as you move through perimenopause, why pelvic health belongs squarely in this conversation, and what it takes to stop rushing the comeback and start recovering smart. Whitney opens up about the mental side of injury — the pressure to bounce back fast, the identity tangled up in our race times — and how learning to reset goals instead of abandoning them can change your entire trajectory as an athlete. Plus, how raising active kids reshaped the way she thinks about her own running, and why staying open to doing things differently might be the most athletic move of all.Whether you're a runner navigating perimenopause, a mom training around real life, or a clinician supporting active women through these transitions — this conversation is for you.In this episode:Masters running and what really changes after 40Perimenopause, hormones & pelvic health for runnersThe mental load of injury recovery & the pressure to "bounce back"Resetting goals and expectations when your body shifts the rulesRaising active kids — and what they teach us about our own trainingTime Stamps1:00 introduction6:39 speaking “teenage boy”10:04 training your daughter14:30 navigating years of injury17:55 deciding to find a new coach23:55 talking more about perimenopause and menopause29:45 hormone therapy in perimenopause and menopause33:23 having guests on podcasts39:43 being open to trying something different43:50 rapid fire questionsCONNECT WITH CARRIEIG: https://www.instagram.com/carriepagliano/Website: https://carriepagliano.comCourse waitlist: https://course.carriepagliano.com/RSAWLCONNECT WITH WHITNEY:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themotherrunners/Website: www.themotherrunners.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.

It covers key running form errors, the importance of cadence, over striding, knee alignment, strength training, and structural resilience to prevent injuries and improve performance.TakeawaysIntegrating form, strength, and resilience is key to optimizing running performance and preventing injuries.Increasing cadence is a strategic tool to reduce impact forces and enhance running efficiency.Correcting overstriding and knock-knee running improves joint mechanics and reduces injury risk.Building muscular strength acts as a protective buffer, reducing reliance on weaker structural components.Resilience in bones, tendons, and ligaments ensures fewer injuries and more consistent training.A holistic approach to running shifts the mindset from reactive to proactive.Maintaining a higher, consistent cadence unlocks speed with less joint stress.Focusing on stride alignment transforms running into an efficient forward drive.

Send us Fan MailDr. Heather breaks down the real science behind why runners get injured and more importantly what you can actually do about it.Here's what was covered:

SP Podcast WHY Your Running injuries keep coming back by Dr. Chris Garcia, DPT

Let's talk about something most runners completely misunderstand: injuries. Most runners think injuries are just bad luck. Or maybe the result of running too many miles too quickly. But in reality, most running injuries are predictable. They're caused by specific strength deficits that quietly undermine your running mechanics. Weak hips. Poor single-leg stability. A core that can't control rotational forces. These weaknesses don't just affect how strong you are — they affect how you move. And when your body can't control the forces created while running, something eventually breaks down. In this episode, The Strength Deficits That Cause Most Running Injuries, I'm breaking down the key weaknesses I see in runners every single day — and how they lead to knee pain, hip issues, Achilles problems, and more. Once you understand these strength deficits, you'll start seeing injuries differently — and more importantly, you'll know exactly what to do to prevent them. Start The Leaner, Stronger Runner Project If you're putting in the miles but not getting the results you want… something is off. Maybe you're running a lot but the weight isn't changing. Maybe you feel tired all the time. Maybe running actually feels harder than it should. And deep down you know this: You shouldn't have to grind this hard just to stay the same. That's exactly why I created The Leaner, Stronger Runner Project. This is a step-by-step coaching program designed specifically for runners who want to: Lose fat without sabotaging their running Build real strength so running actually feels easier Fuel their body properly so energy stays high and cravings calm down Develop the mindset and habits that make progress stick long-term This isn't another random training plan or nutrition hack. It's a clear, structured coaching program that shows you exactly what to do — and why — so you can finally start feeling strong, lean, and confident again. If you're ready to stop guessing and start making real progress… Go to runningleancoaching.com/ready and learn how to get started today. The post 324.

I sat down live in Napa Valley with Shannon Rowbury and Jessica Dorrington, co-authors of the new book Strong as a Mother. We recorded this conversation at the Napa Valley Marathon expo, and it centers on what it looks like to return to running after pregnancy, rebuild after injury, and support athletes through every stage of motherhood and performance. Shannon is a three-time Olympian and Olympic bronze medalist in the 1500 meters. Her medal came years after the 2012 Olympic final, when multiple athletes ahead of her were later disqualified for doping. In this conversation, she reflects on that experience and the complicated reality of receiving an Olympic medal long after the race is over. Jessica Dorrington is a board-certified orthopedic clinical specialist and pelvic health physical therapist who works with many elite runners. She shares practical, grounded insight on postpartum recovery, pelvic health, and how athletes can safely return to running after pregnancy or injury. Together, Shannon and Jess talk about the inspiration behind Strong as a Mother, why better education around postpartum recovery is so needed in sport, and how runners can approach their comeback with patience, perspective, and the right support. We also talk about Shannon's career, the emotional complexity of elite competition, and the importance of understanding the body through every phase of life. This episode is part of my weekend at the Napa Valley Marathon, where I had the chance to serve as race emcee and host conversations with athletes and leaders in the running community. Topics covered: Longevity in running and what helps you keep running for decades Why consistency matters more than any one perfect week of training Recovery as a key part of performance How training needs change as you age Strength training, calf strength, plyometrics, and core work for runners Injury setbacks and using them as opportunities to learn more about your body Shannon Rowbury's femoral neck stress fracture in college and comeback to make her first Olympic team The role of biomechanics, leg length differences, orthotics, and maintenance work in staying healthy Postpartum return to running and why timelines are highly individual What happens to the abdominal wall and pelvic floor during pregnancy and postpartum Why more women are returning to elite running after having babies The lack of pregnancy and postpartum resources for athletes and why Strong as a Mother was written Pelvic floor health for runners and why it matters for both women and men Shannon Rowbury's delayed Olympic bronze medal from the 2012 1500m Doping in sport and the emotional impact of delayed justice The importance of clean sport, reform, and fighting for integrity in athletics Mental preparation for racing, including visualization, positive cue words, breathing, and smiling Race-day strategies for handling hills, fueling, and staying mentally engaged late in the race Why menstruation is an important indicator of athlete health Low energy availability, RED-S, sleep, and early warning signs for high school and young female runners Sign up for the Marathon Project!

Physiotherapist and PhD researcher Laura Anderson just published a paper arguing that "medial tibial stress syndrome" is a 'garbage' name that's been freaking runners out and leading to terrible treatment for decades. Her proposed replacement? Load-Induced Medial Leg Pain (LIMP). Yes, LIMP, pun not intended. The Problem: "Tibial stress" makes everyone think bone stress injury → stress fracture → panic → rest for months Clinicians still aggressively massage shins until they're bruised People rest for months and it comes right back when they start running again It's one of the most common running injuries and we have almost zero quality research on it What It Is: Not a bone stress injury on a fracture continuum Doesn't get worse if you keep running (unlike actual bone stress injuries) We honestly don't know exactly what tissues are involved (probably multiple) Imaging usually shows nothing useful The fix?

The Walk-Run Routine is likely the most overprescribed and least understood plan for returning to running after an overtraining injury like a metatarsal stress fracture for a plantar plate sprain.    But the commutative forces that result from that specific routine may put your foot at unnecessary risk of re-injury. Understanding how and why those unique stresses happen may help you make better decisions about your first few runs after you feel your stress fracture or plantar plate sprain has healed enough to resume running.    Today on the Doc On The Run podcast, we're talking about the worst thing about walk run routine after running injury.

The half-ass boot routine is no good. Slow improvement with unnecessarily increased risk of atrophy, weakness, stiffness, loss of neuromuscular connections, and destruction of your running form. Your running form, your strength, your flexibility, all protect you from another overtraining injury.    When you wear a fracture walking boot for a long time inconsistently, or a long time walking on it, you're going to get more of those bad things.    The other thing that is good, the sort of polar opposite of that, is a half-ass weight routine.  Whaat is that? And more importantly, why would that be good?   Today on the doc on the Run podcast, we're talking about half boot versus half weight when you're recovering from a running injury.

In this week's episode, I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Kate Edwards, a physical therapist with more than 15 years of experience and someone who brings so much compassion and clarity to the running community. From the very beginning, I knew this conversation would resonate deeply with runners who struggle with identity, injury, stress, or the constant pressure to “do it all.”Kate shares how her journey into running medicine was shaped not only by her clinical background but also by her own experiences navigating significant health challenges. That perspective gives her a rare depth of understanding — one that so many runners will feel seen and supported by.We spend a lot of time talking about athletic identity, because it's something I see runners wrestle with every single day. It's so easy for running to become the biggest part of who we are… until something shifts. Injury, life changes, burnout, or even a tough training cycle can shake that identity. Kate and I dig into why building a more balanced sense of self not only supports your emotional well-being but also plays a major role in injury prevention and longevity in the sport.We also explore the true complexity of running injuries, RED-S, stress, fueling (especially for female runners), and why understanding yourself as a whole human — not just an athlete — is essential for long-term health. Kate does an incredible job unpacking these topics in a way that feels both empowering and practical, giving runners a clearer picture of how their body, mind, and lifestyle all fit together.If you've ever felt “less than” when you're not running your best, or if you're craving a more sustainable, joyful relationship with your training, this conversation is absolutely for you.Connect with Dr. Kate Edwards:https://www.fastbananas.com/ https://www.instagram.com/katemihevcedwards/05:22 The Importance of Athletic Identity12:01 The Impact of Injury on Identity13:41 Finding New Outlets and Coping Strategies23:00 Understanding Running Injuries26:30 The Role of Physical Therapists28:13 Stress and Its Impact on Runners35:51 Understanding Relative Energy Deficiency in SpJoin the 30 Day Running Reset and get a plan that will help you build a strong and injury-proof body by combining running and strength training in a way that actually works for runners like you.Gain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.

Runners glorify the suffering needed to keep moving in spite of pain, and the payoff is almost always increased fitness, and improvements and mental fortitude needed for running endurance. No pain, no gain is a terrible approach when you are an injured runner. If you really want to get back to training, racing in full return to running fitness as fast as possible after a running injury you have to stop causing pain in that one injured part. Do not confuse that with stopping running-related exercise. That's the lazy doctor's way.  In this episode, we discuss a different, better approach for runners. 

In this practical episode for runners, PT and runner Dr. Rob Berghorn (Endurance Unleashed) joins Coach Chris to break down the need-to-know of efficient, pain-free running. We cover beginner to advanced cues, cadence targets, ground contact time, uphill/downhill technique, shoe selection vs. trends, when (and how) to use insoles, year-round strength training, and smart warm-up/cool-down routines. If your watch is spitting out numbers and you're not sure which ones matter—or you want fewer niggles and more speed—this one's for you. Key takeaways:Start simple: build consistency (2–3x/week), try a run-walk approach, progress gradually. Cadence sweet spot: generally ~160–180 spm; use music or a metronome to train it. Ground contact time: aim roughly ~0.21–0.31 sec; shorter = less braking & stress. Hills: up = shorter, quicker steps; down = avoid hard braking; control with choppy steps if needed. Shoes: fit first (width & length); don't chase trends; rotate models; use insoles as a tool, not a crutch. Strength all year (free weights, single-leg control) to prevent common hip/knee/foot issues. Always warm up (5+ min, dynamic) and cool down to speed recovery.Send us a text Support the show

Are your running shoes "dead" at 500 miles? Many runners lose sleep over the famous mileage rule, treating it as a non-negotiable expiration date. In this episode, we deconstruct the infamous 300 to 500-mile myth and expose how the running industry's business model of planned obsolescence has influenced this idea. We'll dive into the real science of shoe breakdown—from midsole compression to a runner's unique biomechanics—to uncover why a one-size-fits-all mileage rule is deeply flawed.Instead of a number, we give you the practical tools to know when a shoe is truly worn out. Learn the key signs of fatigue and discover why your body is the ultimate sensor for shoe health. We also explore the proven benefits of a shoe rotation for extending the life of your gear and reducing your risk of injury. Join us to change your mindset, save money, and gain a new perspective on your most essential piece of running equipment.SourcesGlobal Running Shoe Market Value: Grand View Research.

This week on the Shakeout Podcast we're joined by Justyn Knight, Olympic finalist, multi-time NCAA Division 1 national champion, and the second fastest man in Canadian history over 5000m. After a devastating injury sustained at the 5000m final at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 kept Knight off the track for nearly 4 years, he's back competing against the world's best in 2025. Fresh off a podium-performance at the Canadian championships and a 13:03 clocking in the 5k just days ago in Europe, Knight joins the show to talk about the long road back to the top of the distance running world. Following years of injury, and a move across the continent to train alongside Canadian record holder Moh Ahmed as part of the Oregon-based Nike Swoosh Track Club, the Toronto-born Knight is still chasing the same lofty goals as ever, albeit with a perspective that's been formed in the trials of the past several years.Follow Justyn @justyn.knight Subscribe to The Shakeout Podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you find your podcasts.Follow The Shakeout Podcast @shakeoutpodcast  

Ellie Greenwood is ultra running royalty. I also got the impression from our chat that she's incredibly humble and I suspect that description may not sit comfortably with her  — but it's the truth.A 2x winner of one of the world's most famous and revered races, the Western States Endurance Run 100 (that's 100mi/160km).In 2012, she also smashed the course record — a record that stood for 11 years and was only broken in 2023 by Courtney Dauwalter!She's also a 2x winner of the World 100km Championship and in 2014 she also won the Comrades Marathon, an 89km race in South Africa, regarded as the world's oldest and largest ultramarathon.While we touch on those races in this conversation, we spend much of our time behind-the-scenes, with Ellie sharing:- how her athletic identity changed from someone who ran for fun to that of a ‘semi-professional' and potential winner,- how you don't need to have the ‘perfect race' to achieve the best result you can,- her struggle with injuries and her advice on how to get your running ‘fix' when you're injured and how to remain optimistic when you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel,- how it took her 2nd win at the Western States 100 for her to finally call herself a 100-mile runner, and- whether she secretly crosses her fingers and hopes that no-one breaks her record at the Western States 100 each year.

This week's show brought to you by: Ketone-IQ You may have read a lot the last few years about the benefits of ketones for endurance performance, such as mitochondrial efficiency and glycogen sparing. Your body uses ketones for energy typically during fasting, long periods of exercise, or when you don't have as many carbohydrates. The problem is that you typically need to severely reduce your carbohydrate intake in order to take advantage of them, which is difficult to sustain, even for the most dedicated runner. But, thanks to Ketone-IQ you quickly deliver ketones to your bloodstream, putting you into ketosis within minutes without the need to fast, restrict calories or carbs, or exercise away your glycogen stores. And the academic literature on the effectiveness of ketones for running performance is overwhelming.  For example, a 2021 study demonstrated that the ingestion of ketones improved mitochondrial efficiency by 7% and 2019 study concluded that using ketones significantly enhanced endurance performance while minimizing overtraining. If you want to see more of the research, head to ketone.com/RTTT Plus, for a limited time you can save 30% off your first subscription order & receive a free six pack of Ketone-IQ by going ketone.com/RTTT.

This is important because lower NAD+ levels have been shown in research to impact some of the hallmarks of aging such as reduced muscle strength, lower mitochondrial performance and overall energy. But, just because NAD+ levels decline with age doesn't mean you have to accept it. NAD+ from MAS Edge is a groundbreaking formula that can increase your NAD+ levels by 67%. Their unique formula enhances absorption by 71% and increases uptake and utilization in the body by 167% compared to generic NAD+ supplements. This means you can slow muscle loss, improve recovery, increase your energy levels, and fight aging at the cellular level. You can check out the results yourself at masedge.com/nad.

Slumber There's no denying that sleep is one of the most powerful factors to upgrading your overall health and running performance.  We all know it by now, but sometimes no matter how well-intentioned we are; getting good, quality sleep doesn't come easy.  Sometimes you can't get your mind to relax, other times you toss and turn all night. One way or another, it all leads to poor quality sleep.  That's why we've partnered with Slumber, the leader in science-backed sleep supplements using CBN.  CBN is a hemp-derived melatonin alternative which promotes rest, relaxation, and sleep.  And it works.  In a recent 2024 study, participants who used Slumbers Deep Zzzs CBN Gummies for 30 days reported significant improvements in time to sleep, got 72 minutes of extra deep, and reported waking up 1.5 less times per night on average.  What I love most is that you can mix and match different formulations to specifically address your goals or your own struggles with sleep.  If you want to see the research and learn more about how these amazing CBN gummies can help improve your sleep, head to slumbercbn.com/runnersconnect  Plus, this link will get you 30% off. 

Just about every runner has made the mistake of going too fast on a recovery run and paid the price. There's a lot of things that we know we should do as runners and still get them wrong.  Coach Jeff brings his years of coaching experience to the show to share why runners make these 5 easy to fix mistakes: Overdoing recovery runs Ineffective strength training Rationalizing not having enough time Running through injury Eating the wrong fuel before and after training You might think this list looks basic, and you'd be right. Even veteran runners screw up the easy stuff sometimes and fixing them can help you to make massive performance gains. Marathon training is hard, so don't screw up the easy stuff.  Training Pace Calculator: https://runnersconnect.net/long-and-easy-run-pace/ Connect, Comment, Community Follow RunnersConnect on Instagram Join the Elite Treatment where you get first dibs on everything RTTT each month!

This week's show brought to you by: MAS Iron Outside of training deficiencies, low iron is one of the most common reasons for poor results during workouts and races.  Recent research indicates that almost 56% of male runners and 86% of female runners suffer from an iron deficiency that severely hampers performance. The problem with eating iron-rich foods or supplementing with traditional iron supplements is that iron is notoriously difficult for the body to absorb and utilize. In fact, only about 25% of dietary iron found in animal sources is absorbed while 17% or less of the iron from plant sources is absorbed. But MAS Iron has found a way to combat these absorption issues to ensure you can get the iron you need for health and performance. By combining the most efficiently absorbed form of elemental iron with clinically proven ingredients to aid in absorption, MAS Iron performs like no other iron product on the market. In fact, clinical research has shown the combination of ingredients in MAS Iron can quadruple absorption and increase bioavailability by 30%, all while reducing GI issues by 50%.

Previnex Joint Health Plus Joint Health Plus from Previnex is clinically proven to reduce joint pain, joint stiffness,and improve joint flexibility in 7-10 days.  In fact, it is clinically proven to be up to 5 times more beneficial than glucosamine and chondroitin alone or in combination. I saw immediate results when I started using Joint Health Plus and that's why I reached out to Previnex to see if we could put together an offer for you guys.
