About Sabrina   Sabrina Pace-Humphreys is a 44-year-old mother of 4 and grandmother of 3, an award-winning businesswoman, an ultrarunner, a social justice activist and a recovering alcoholic. She is a mixed-raced woman, the daughter of a white Scottish Roman Catholic woman and a Black man.    In July 2020 she co-founded the fast-growing community and campaigning charity, Black Trail Runners, and is also a well-known ultra-marathon runner. She finished the 'toughest footrace on earth', a 250km multi-stage marathon across the Sahara Desert known as the Marathon des Sables, as 10th UK woman and most recently she completed the Spine Race, a non-stop 268 miles race down the Pennine Way.    Sabrina is the author of Black Sheep: A Story of Rural Racism, Identity and Hope “In Black Sheep, Sabrina reveals how she got from there to here: about growing up in a home, a school and a town where no-one looked like her and her subsequent struggle to understand and find her identity; about her lived experience of rural racism; about becoming a teenage mother and her determination to break that stereotype; about her battle with alcoholism and her mental health; about how running saved her life; and ultimately about how someone can not only survive but thrive in spite of their past. Sabrina's experience will chime with anyone who has felt like an outsider. Poignant and eye-opening, and exploring themes of trauma, identity, mental health and addiction, Black Sheep is a tale of triumph: of grit and determination, of hope over despair.”   New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast go live every Tuesday 7am UK time - Subscribe button so you don't miss out.    To find out more about supporting your favourite podcast and becoming a patron please visit www.patreon.com/toughgirlpodcast.      Show Notes Who is Sabrina Previously chatting on the TGP - July 7th 2020 What was happening in late 2020 Launching Black Trail Runners (BTR) in July 2020 Black Trail Runners - writing an open letter to race organisers  Taking about the issues and the lack of diversity in trail runners Moving house, welcoming a new grandchild, running the Ramsey Round Doing the 3 peaks challenge and seeing me at the top of Ben Nevis (Watch the vlog) Building the community of Black Trail Runners and the impact  Having the uncomfortable conversations Collecting ethnicity data Having a BTR race fund  Taking real action and breaking down the barriers Running the 4.5% challenge in 2021 Working with youth groups Coping with the mental and emotional pressure Running and mental health Running as a form at activism Understanding her why of running the Spine Race The Spine Race  Working with her running coach Damien Hall Figuring out her race strategy and how her race goals changed over time Focusing on the “B” goal - completing the race Focusing on 10k stretches and reaching certain views  Keeping in the moment and not thinking about the full distance Struggling with sleep deprivation and figuring out a new sleep strategy The power of sleep and needing 30 mins of sleep at every checkpoint Dealing with food pain and having to implement a pain management strategy Training for the Spine Race and what a typical week looked life Doing more back to back training runs and weighted runs Winning her first ultra marathon!  Kissing a wall The lessons learned from running the Spine Race “You can do hard things - you can do this” Being on the June cover of Women's Running UK  Book: Black Sheep: A Story of Rural Racism, Identity and Hope.

There is certainly no shortage of "advice" out there about running form. If your social media habits are anything like mine, you can't scroll down your feed more than two or three times without seeing some video or image depicting "bad running form" or "good running form" or some sort of transition between the two. Heck, I've put up quite a number of these posts myself! BUT! What does the evidence say? What aspects of running form have been shown to influence running performance? What about injury rates? These are very important factors to consider before you start messing around with your running technique. Today we are joined by the one and only Tom Goom, aka The Running Physio. Many of you will be familiar with Tom, over the last decade he has gained quite a reputation for his ability to translate running injury research into easy-to-digest messages. Tom teaches clinicians all over the world through his Running Repairs Courses and has written for Running Fitness, Men's Running UK, the British Journal of Sports Medicine and the Journal of Orthopaedic and Sports Physical Therapy. His website, Running-Physio.com is the go-to resource for clinicians and runners who want to know what the science actually says about running injury management. To put it simply, there is no one better positioned to give us a "thousand-foot view" on running form research. You will leave this episode with some very clear takeaways about what is important (and not important) when it comes to running technique.

On this episode of the Healthy Wealthy and Smart Podcast, Tom Goom joins me to discuss a gluteal tendinopathy case study. Tom has gained the nickname ‘Running Physio’ after years of combining his passion for physio and love for running together to specialise in management of running injury. He’s written widely on the topic with over 200 evidence-based articles for his own site, running-physio.com as well as contributing to the BJSM Blog, Runner’s World and the Telegraph. In 2016 he published a masterclass on proximal hamstring tendinopathy in the Journal of Orthopaedic and Sports Physical Therapy. He presents his Running Repairs Course in the UK, internationally and online, covering a range of topics from training load management to bone stress injuries, strength and conditioning and more. In this episode, we discuss: -Crafting the subjective portion of your evaluation -Objective measures at the impairment, activity and participation levels -Multimodal treatment approaches to manage gluteal tendinopathy -Intrinsic factors that affect tendon health -And so much more!   Identifying what running really means to your patient will help guide your goals for therapy as Tom stresses, “I want to know about the impact the injury is having on them.”   Modifying activity levels is an important aspect for your exercise prescription and you have to convey to your patients that, “It’s this kind of balancing act of risk versus reward.”   It is important for clinicians to avoid iatrogenic language in their patient education and only, “Highlight the good things.“   Establish at the onset to, “Expect flair ups.” as managing patient expectations during their rehabilitation is key to long term success.   Treating gluteal tendinopathy is both challenging and rewarding and Tom believes, “There’s an art to it as well as a science.”   For more information on Tom: Tom is a physiotherapist with over 10 years of experience and a very keen runner! He graduated with a BSc (Hons) degree in 2002 and since then has worked in clinics in the UK and overseas. His career started in Winchester where he worked in the NHS and developed a specific interest in lower limb rehab and joined the physio team at a semi-professional football club. Following the Tsunami in 2004 Tom travelled to Sri Lanka and did voluntary physiotherapy work in a hospital, teaching local staff, treating patients and fundraising for new equipment. Tom returned to the UK in 2006 and started working in Brighton as a senior physiotherapist. His interest in rehab continued to grow and he ran lower limb and spinal rehab groups as well a chronic pain programme. Tom started RunningPhysio in March 2012 to help those training for marathons that spring, since then it’s developed into a resource used by runners all over the world. Tom has written for Running Fitness, Men’s Running UK, and the British Journal of Sports Medicine blog. His work has featured on Kinetic Revolution, Bartold Biomechanics and a host of online sports sites.  A few words from Tom… I’m learning about running all the time, one thing I’ve found is that there are a lot of opinions out there! No 2 people will give you the same advice and I respect that. My plan with this site is to share my view on injury prevention and management when running. I welcome different views and ideas so please feel free to comment. I don’t claim to have all the answers but I hope people will find this site helpful. I’ve got a few miles under my belt and a few good PB’s – 39:30 for 10km and a 1:28 half marathon. In April 2013 I did my first marathon and loved it! I finished in 3:12:28 – full story here. I work at The Physio Rooms clinic in Brighton. For more information or to arrange an appointment see our Clinic Page.

Gretchen talks women in… ultra-running? Yep! But first, Pete and Gretchen recap their trip to Washington wine country. Without wine in front of them, the couple recounts the wine and food experiences with a group of friends in the Columbia Valley of Washington. A good time was had by all. Too much of a good time? Maybe, but all worth it. Pete talks about his amazing 10-mile run on the Columbia River and the impact it has on his appetite. Fat-adapted or not, expending a lot of energy makes you hungry. Finally, the couple tackles an interesting subject – are women better than men at ultra-running? The conversation is inspired by an article in Women’s Running UK called, “Why Women are Better at Ultra Running.” Gretchen recaps the article and the couple discusses the merits behind it. Pete is especially intrigued by the mental aspects as they help him gain insight into Gretchen’s thought process on goals.

Brian Mackenzie and Rob Wilson jump on the podcast to discuss the Art of Breath (AoB). Brian and Rob are fresh off their first clinic and looking reconnect humans with the fundamental task of breathing. We discuss the difference between nose and mouth breathing, how breathing impairments affect health and performance, and a few simple strategies to get you breathing properly. Check out The Power Speed and Endurance events page for a full list of future AoB clinics and contact info to schedule one in a gym near you! Our Very own Doc Danny will be at the next the next AoB clinic at CrossFit Terminus in Atlanta GA. Reverse you spot at this clinic at the link below. https://powerspeedendurance.com/product/georgia-aob-clinic/ For more on Brain, Rob and the AoB clinic scroll below, visit https://powerspeedendurance.com/, or follow them at the social handles listed below. The Art of Breath Clinich (From the Power Speed and Endurance webpage - http://powerspeedendurance.com/event/georgia-art-of-breath-clinic/) If we don’t breathe, we die. Although we all know this simple fact breathing remains the most underutilized component of health and human performance. The Art of Breath (AoB) is a program developed to give participants an experience based understanding of how breathing can affect both short term performance and long term health. Through a variety of simple and effective teaching tools we will help illuminate this powerful practice and help you grab this low hanging fruit. The AoB purpose is to help facilitate a deeper understanding of the physiological process so that each person can ultimately tailor their own breath practice to his or her individual needs.

Rob Wilson (@preparetoperform) Rob Wilson comes from a formal education in manual therapy with 15+ years of experience as both a practitioner and teacher. He resides in Virginia Beach, VA with his wife Thomi where they own and operate CrossFit Virginia Beach. In addition to working with the Power Speed Endurance team Rob is also a member of the world renowned MobilityWod staff under the direction of Dr. Kelly Starrett. Rob’s main sport background is youth martial arts including Jeet Kune Do (the philosophies of Bruce Lee), Judo, Muay Thai, and Maphiliindo Silat and Kali. Like many coastal kids Rob grew up surfing and skating as well and developed an affinity for the ocean and Nature at an early age. Rob Wilson is a passionate teacher to the core. Throughout the course of his career as a therapist one thing became abundantly clear; it’s better to teach a person to fish. Without education athletes are left to unknowingly repeat patterns of behavior that may not be pursuant to the actual desired outcome. That is to say the best remedy is often understanding. Rob’s journey is about developing a deeper understanding of human performance to better serve those who wish to actualize their potential. Rob’s underpinning philosophy is borrowed from the tenets of Jeet Kune Do: Research your own experience Absorb what is useful Reject what is useless Add what is specifically your own
