What happens when you decide that life—and running—actually begins after age 50? In this episode of Your Story, Your Why, we sit down with Paul Latham, a Jamaican immigrant based in Fort Worth, Texas. Growing up in Jamaica active in casual sports, running was never Paul's primary focus. It wasn't until well into his 50s, after a personal trainer pointed out his need for stamina, that Paul laced up his shoes for a three-mile walk on a local track.After running over 200 5Ks and becoming comfortable at the half marathon distance, a coworker challenged Paul to break through his self-imposed limits by entering the Chicago Marathon lottery. Winning a spot launched a transformative distance-running career. Now preparing for his 13th marathon at the Cape Town Marathon, Paul reflects on the value of stepping outside comfort zones, the power of volunteering at major World Marathon Majors, and his goal to stay moving well into his 80s and 90s.Key TakeawaysLife Begins Whenever You Decide: Age is not a barrier to starting distance running; Paul ran his first marathon after turning 50.Break Self-Imposed Ceilings: Often, the only thing holding us back from longer distances or bigger goals is a mental limitation.Volunteer for Perspective: Serving as a course marshal or aid station volunteer builds deep gratitude for race directors and fellow athletes.Value Experiences Over Things: The connections, travel, and personal growth gained through distance running far outweigh material items.Connect with Paul Latham: FacebookTraining Program Mentioned: Cowtown TrailblazersRaces Mentioned: Chicago Marathon, Cape Town Marathon, Boston Marathon, Cowtown MarathonFollow Marathon Journal: Website | InstagramWhat goal have you been holding back on because it felt outside your comfort zone?

This week, James is joined by the bicycle polymath himself, Phil Cavell. Cyclist, bike fitter, author, writer, speaker, racer, shop owner, bike designer, wrench and generally very clever bloke, Phil, together with friend and long-term business partner, Julian Walls, helped pioneer bike fitting back in the early 2000s, opening Europe's first dedicated bike fit studio, Cyclefit, in London on 2003.Over the years, Phil has worked with top pros like the Trek team and a young Tom Pidcock, to amateurs from all walks of life. Bu whoever they are, they are all concerned with one thing – staying fit and getting the best out of cycling a bike.Phil has written numerous articles for Cyclist magazine – we are real paper magazine you can buy in a real shop, issue 178 out now! – but more importantly, he's penned several books, the most recent of which, The Cycling Addiction (Bloomsbury), which we discuss today. Concerning ‘suffering, speed and the search for meaning on two wheels', The Cycling Addiction seeks to discover what it is that draws us to such a punishing sport, and what functions of the mind, body and evolution are responsible for cyclists producing extraordinary feats of endurance, even to the point of death. But this isn't just a chat about the physiology. Phil talks about his own experiences and others' from a philosophical and emotional point of view, including the idea that cycling for some is a mechanism of control, identity anchor and self-esteem booster. Who hasn't got a little tingle opening Strava and seeing a new gold medal?Chat begins at 6.17The Cycling Addiction by Phil Cavell is out now, published by Bloomsbury.------------------This episode is brought to you by Boyd Cycling, whose full range of hand-built wheels can be found at boydcycling.com......and the Maserati Grecale SUV car.

Christian Brothers Academy Head Cross Country Coach Sean McCafferty joins Airey Bros Radio for a deep dive into one of the most storied high school cross country programs in America.Coming off a historic 2025 season, McCafferty was named the Joe Newton Coach of the Year after leading CBA to 3rd place at Nike Cross Nationals (NXN) with a New Jersey-record 15:54 team average. Under his leadership, the Colts have won seven Meet of Champions titles, six Nike Northeast Regional titles and qualified for NXN eight consecutive times.Sean takes us back to his roots in New Jersey distance running, growing up in a running family, his own career at Princeton, becoming a teacher and coach, and eventually taking over the legendary CBA Cross Country program from Tom Heath.We get deep into what has allowed CBA to remain one of the premier high school distance programs in the country: evolving training philosophies, slowing down easy days, threshold training, heart-rate data, lactate testing, building athlete confidence, developing team culture and teaching runners to care about one another.Coach McCafferty also breaks down the modern college recruiting landscape and why the best opportunity for a high school runner isn't always NCAA Division I. We discuss D1, D2 and D3 recruiting, Ivy League academics, social media and Strava, the pressure of coaching a national powerhouse, CBA alumni culture, Nike Cross Nationals and what the next generation of Colts looks like heading into the 2026 cross country season.If you're a high school cross country runner, distance coach, parent, college recruit or fan of New Jersey running, this one is loaded.

Matt recaps his 2:33 Sydney Marathon in jeans, then dives into recovery, weight loss, fueling, strength training, Melbourne Marathon goals and what comes next. Matt Fox / Sweat Elite Coaching: https://www.sweatelitecoaching.com/matt-fox/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mattinglisfox/ Strava: https://www.strava.com/athletes/6248359 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SweatElite Sweat Elite: https://www.sweatelite.co/ Sweat Elite Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sweatelite/ Three days after the Sydney Marathon, Matt breaks down his 2:33:38 run in jeans and what he is currently calling the fastest known marathon in jeans. He talks through the pacing strategy, running with the 2:35 pacer through 30km, dealing with hamstring cramping late in the race, how much the jeans may have slowed him down and how Sydney compares with a flatter marathon course. Matt also goes deep into marathon recovery, including the roughly 310g of carbohydrates and 50g of protein he consumed in the first 90 minutes after finishing. He discusses sleep, returning to training after a marathon, strength and mobility work, cramping, chafing, shoe choices and why he believes his recovery has been significantly better than after many previous marathons. Weight loss remains a major topic as Matt explains how he has gone from around 86kg to roughly 73kg over the past four months while continuing to train at a high level. He discusses calorie deficits on easier days, carbohydrate cycling around workouts and long runs, strength training while losing weight, GLP-1 use, maintaining power while getting lighter and why he believes reaching approximately 69kg could put him back around PB shape for Melbourne. Matt finishes by answering listener questions on Sydney's hills, marathon course conversions, how long runners can continue improving with age, shoe durability, recovering between Sydney and Melbourne, preventing marathon cramps and future costume marathon attempts. He also shares his plan to move to Lisbon later this year and spend more time racing and training in Europe.

16 years ago, I started coaching with an email, a PDF, and a lot of guesswork. Today, my athletes' workouts sync automatically and we're commenting back and forth before I even finish my coffee.This episode came from a conversation with my friend who asked me what's actually changed the most since I started coaching. I break it down into three things. Communication. Data. Community. Then, I'll tell you where I think each one is headed.We talk about:Why real-time commenting changed coaching more than any single piece of gear ever didThe power meter I bought in 2008 and how data went from "nobody has this" to non-negotiableWhy I won't coach an athlete without power anymore, and where useful data turns into noiseMy honest take on Strava and community apps, and why I stepped back from checking in dailyWhy I tell brand-new coaches NOT to start with AI coaching appsWhere I think AI sharpens a coach's brain instead of replacing the coachNo fluff. Just 16 years of pattern recognition and an honest look forward.Am I too old-school on any of this? DM me @CoachMichelleLake.If you're ready to build a coaching business that doesn't run through 70 different apps, that's what we work on inside Dream to 6. Book a call with me here to see if it's the right fit for you: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/afee674e/appointment/31380211/calendar/5950491?appointmentTypeIds[]=31380211Let me know what you think!

Lots to unpack in today's episode! Rachel is still injured after roughly 16 weeks without running and gives an update on where things stand, including the mental challenge of having to wait even when you're finally seeing progress. Megan is preparing for her first USATF national championship and talks about training, finding confidence, and the value of having people around you who understand what you're trying to do.Meanwhile, Karen shares about a ruined Strava mile, leading to a chat about Strava etiquette and whether it's acceptable to restart your watch when you mess up a split. The Chicks also dive into marathon fueling and how many carbs you should actually be taking in during a race, plus gels, beetroot juice, low iron, and the surprising costs that come with being a runner. They also answer questions about blood blisters and runner toenails and talk about the joys of training with other people.Plus: Is it still "getting chicked" when you get passed by someone pushing a stroller?_________________Find this week's Zappos recs here:Karen: Saucony Endorphin Pro 5Rachel: AG Brinley Mid-Rise Straight JeansMegan: UGG Classic Ultra Mini Platform_________________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORZappos is an online retail destination for the best in footwear, offering the selection and expertise runners need to take on each day with confidence.

Junto al antropólogo Manuel Delgado, esta temporada analizaremos las tendencias que nos hacen entender un poco mejor cómo funciona nuestra sociedad. Esta semana hablamos de Strava, la aplicación móvil que usan los deportistas para registrar sus datos cuando hacen actividad física. Estudiamos la evolución de esta app a una red social donde el principal objetivo es conocer gente.

We got an extra dose of confidence before this great episode! The main topic was the history made at UTMB, with Ben Dhiman arguably running the best ultra race of all time. We also talked about being young and fit forever with Hans Troyer, the women throwing down across the board, and what we think we're seeing with the monstrous performances at all the races.And this episode was full of fun topics! Other topics: low confidence Strava posting, our favorite gel, AI-driven review articles, a study on short-term heat training in cool temps, Brian Reynolds' amazing Leadville triumph, the future of backyard ultras, the incredible Dolly Parton, a follow-up on AI science, cheering for other athletes, heat and female athlete marathon training, taking Nomio at night, and the long-tail of PEDs.Stick around for a beautiful listener corner message. People are people, and that can be so comforting.Also, stick around to guess what segment we had to remove. 10 minutes of the podcast are lost to eternity... probably for the best. We love you all!

On this week's episode Kristi and Kathryn talk with internet sensation Laini Bones, about how a joking Instagram bit turned into a fast-growing cycling platform. Laini started running during college, and spent 10 years as a runner working in the world of corporate finance before cycling piqued her interest. She tells us about her path from running marathons to road racing, the viral segment-hunting reels that launched her account, and how she balances comedy, competition, and growing visibility in the cycling world. The conversation also digs into her racing plans with Lauren Stevens' team, Aegis Next Step Racing where she has been a guest rider this year, and her plans for the future - which may just include some gravel racingAside from being a total bad-ass on a bike, Laini is also co-founder and CFO of Carbs Fuel with her husband Gabe. She tells us how the company got started, and what it was like making the leap from her full-time corporate gig to the life of an entrepreneur and influencer.Follow Laini on instagram @lainibones

The Real Triathlon Podcast crew dives into their latest TrainingPeaks fitness, fatigue, and form numbers before discussing race preparation, changing training structures, and the challenges of balancing multiple coaches. Jackson explains his new bike-focused training microcycle, Garrick shares how parenthood and sleep affect his routine, and Lisa talks through pneumonia, an intercostal muscle strain, and her return to higher-volume running. The crew also debates walking as a valuable part of endurance training, shares their best and worst workouts of the week, and tackles a series of “Pass or Smash” topics—including warm-up walks, racing from March to December, chasing Strava segments, breaking up long runs, race bibs, and black olives. Plus: treadmill sweat, race venues that hold athletes hostage, bike mirrors, and the inspiring power of simply getting out there and moving.

Have you ever finished a book you dislike just to say you've finished it? Have you loaded up Duolingo at 11:55pm to keep the streak alive? Have you felt the crushing disappointment of realising you forgot to record your run for Strava?  If so, metrics might be controlling your life. And philosopher C. Thi Nguyen, my guest on today's episode of Nudge, thinks that's a problem. Nguyen believes that our lives are increasingly organised around metrics and that these rankings don't just track what we value. They replace it.

In this episode, we dive deep into the critical logistical pillars of marathon success that go beyond simple aerobic fitness. If you want to avoid hitting the wall at mile 20, you need to master your fuel, gear, and recovery. The Carbohydrate Bottleneck: Why the marathon is as much a fuel management test as it is an aerobic one, and how burning through glycogen leads to the dreaded late-race bonk. Proactive Fueling Targets: Moving past outdated advice to embrace modern research supporting 90 to 120 grams of carbohydrates per hour for trained athletes. Dual-Source Carbohydrates: Why combining glucose (maltodextrin) and fructose in a ~1:1 ratio uses complementary intestinal transporters (SGLT1 and GLUT5) to prevent absorption bottlenecks. Sweat Testing & Sodium Mechanics: How to run a simple 60-minute field test to calculate your individual hourly sweat loss, plus the truth about sodium, cramps, and hyponatremia. Gut Training: Why your digestive system struggles under race-intensity blood flow redistribution, and how to progressively train your gut during long runs. The Three-Shoe Rotation: Breaking down the functional roles of your durable daily high-volume trainers, responsive workout shoes, and race-day carbon super shoes. Taper Science & The Taper Tantrum: Understanding why a taper is about eliminating cumulative fatigue rather than building new fitness, why feeling terrible is normal, and why you must stick to the 21-day rule.

Listener Q&A, covering nine different questions/topics from building bike power as a runner and a collegiate swimmer moving back into triathlon, through what actually makes us fatigue during a threshold effort, to swimskins, power duration curves and lots more. We do listener Q&As monthly, the last Thursday every month. HIGHLIGHTS AND KEY TOPICS: Building the bike as a runner: why heart rate sits lower on the bike than on the run, whether that gap matters, and what it says about where the limiter is. Plus how to use a daily 20 km ride towing a 25 kg dog trailer. A 193 cm, 100 kg collegiate swimmer moving back into triathlon: the engine-stronger-than-the-chassis problem, a run progression specified down to the minute, and why Mikael gets more conservative every time he coaches this profile. Why the maximal lactate steady state is a steady state for lactate and not for the whole body, what keeps drifting while lactate holds flat, and what one study found when it looked for the system that fails at exhaustion. How long you can actually hold MLSS, against the 40 minutes the question assumed, how much that varies between athletes, and where critical power sits relative to it. Swimskins: whether they give you any of the buoyancy a wetsuit does, the performance, drag and energy cost numbers from the closest pool research, and the thing that matters more than the brand and price tag. Whether a swimskin does more for a fast swimmer or a slow one. Reading your own power duration curve with nobody to compare against: the TrainingPeaks chart to start from, why a flat profile means something different for a triathlete than a cyclist, and Strava as a stand-in database. Mikael's W' bands for male and female age group triathletes, on record for the first time, plus the critical power ratio from close to a hundred of his own athletes' tests. Quickfire round on altitude, heat and the CORE sensor, run volume by intensity, and vegan nutrition.

Probablement le plus anticonformiste des coureurs.Depuis plus de 10 ans, Alexandre Boucheix est chef de projet chez JCDecaux le jour et superstar de l'ultra-trail la nuit.Son nom de scène : Casquette Verte.Aujourd'hui connu comme le loup blanc dans le monde du trail, il rassemble plus de 140 000 personnes sur son compte Instagram sous ce nom, documentant ses courses et ses aventures avec sa fameuse casquette verte.Son approche de la course est complètement délirante. Il refuse toute méthode ou programme et se concentre sur le volume : “Jamais de fractionné. Je ne m'entraîne pas, je cours.”Auparavant la course le rendait indifférent, il préférait répéter 3000 fois une figure de skateboard plutôt que de sortir courir.L'aventure commence par un acte manqué, après une soirée arrosée. Alexandre candidate pour son premier ultra-trail, La Diagonale des Fous : 175 km avec plus de 10 000 mètres de dénivelé sur l'île de la Réunion.Il parvient alors à entrer dans le top 100. Depuis, il multiplie les projets, tous plus insensés les uns que les autres.Finir dans le top 10 de la Diagonale des Fous. Faire 100 km autour du Parc des Princes en tournant en rond. Courir 490 km dans le désert d'Atacama. Inventer l'Ultra-trail de Montmartre. Et bien d'autres projets pirates.Alexandre nous livre ses meilleurs conseils et sa non-méthode :La stratégie pour améliorer sa récupérationRendre la course facile et agréableLa fonctionnalité cachée de StravaSes plus grandes erreurs de nutritionLe rapport entre les sponsors et les influenceurs dans le monde du sportLes coulisses de ses ultra-trails et de ses entraînements (qui n'en sont pas !)Un épisode inspirant, motivant, avec un personnage aussi résilient que punk qui propose une approche alternative à la course longue et au trail. Préparez vos baskets, il vous sera impossible de rester cloué à votre chaise après cette écoute.Vous faites une sortie : partagez-la sur les réseaux en mentionnant le compte GDIY et retrouvez-moi sur Strava.D'ailleurs, en programmant la rediffusion je suis retombé sur le Club GDIY ! Il y a actuellement 278 membres, si on arrive à 1000, on reprend l'activité dessus avec des petites exclus toutes les semaines.Comme lors de la première diffusion de cet épisode en août 2024, Alex sera au depart de l'UTMB dans quelques jours.

Jordan Sullivan, The Fight Dietitian, joins Matt to break down performance-focused weight loss, RED-S, marathon fueling and how endurance athletes can get lighter without sacrificing training quality.

Jordan has spent more than a decade working with elite athletes across combat sports, endurance events and other high-performance environments, helping athletes manipulate body composition while maintaining performance. They discuss RED-S, low energy availability and why the intensity and duration of a calorie deficit matter. Jordan explains why training status is an important part of the equation, how quickly athletes can realistically lose weight, and why Garmin, WHOOP and other wearable calorie estimates should not be treated as exact measurements. They also explore what happens to muscle during a calorie deficit, the roles of protein and resistance training, and what changes when an already-lean athlete tries to become even lighter. Jordan and Matt discuss Matt's own progression from around 74 kg toward 69 kg, and the longer-term possibility of experimenting closer to 65 kg while trying to determine where further weight loss stops improving marathon performance. A major part of the conversation focuses on fueling marathon training while losing weight. They discuss periodizing calorie and carbohydrate intake around important sessions, why harder running dramatically increases carbohydrate requirements, fueling long runs, post-workout glycogen restoration and why an athlete's fitness remains more important than simply consuming more fuel. Jordan also explains why blanket recommendations such as 60-90 g or 120 g of carbohydrate per hour may not be optimal for everyone. Individual carbohydrate oxidation rates, gut tolerance and training history can all influence how much carbohydrate an athlete can actually use. They finish with bone health, practical carbohydrate choices including white rice, bread, fruit and honey, and why developing good whole-food habits remains important for long-term health.

Brendan Housler explains that FTP isn't one system but reflects aerobic base, VO2 max “ceiling,” lactate handling, durability, and time to exhaustion, so raising threshold requires targeting your specific limiter instead of doing random FTP workouts. He prioritizes first building an endurance foundation (2–3 hour rides feeling fresh), then using VO2 max and over-unders, followed by supra-threshold work (just above FTP), and lastly steady-state TTE workouts (e.g., 3x20, 2x30, 1x45). He suggests using 5-minute power as a rough VO2 proxy and comparing FTP/5-min power (fractional utilization) to decide whether to focus on VO2 work or threshold, while noting anaerobic riders can skew 5-minute results. He emphasizes fueling key sessions, adjusting focus around race season, and maintaining year-round purpose by stacking training across seasons and years.Chapters:00:00 Stop Surviving Intervals00:47 FTP Is Multiple Systems02:59 Four Buckets Framework03:25 Base Before Intensity05:05 Find Your Limiter05:42 Ceiling Test With 5-Minute07:14 VO2 Max Workout Menu08:21 Supra Threshold Bridge09:41 Over Unders For Surges10:32 Build Time To Exhaustion11:54 Recap And Next Steps12:52 Sample Week And Caveats13:56 Fueling And Coaching Plugs15:14 Offseason Purpose And Wrap
