In this week’s episode of the Running Lean podcast, I’m diving into a topic that becomes absolutely essential as we get older—Functional Strength for Aging Runners: Stay Powerful for Life. If you’re a runner in your 40s, 50s, 60s, or beyond, you already know that things start to feel a little different as the years go by. Maybe your paces slow down, maybe recovery takes longer, maybe those annoying aches and pains pop up more often. But here’s the truth: none of this has to mean decline. You can stay strong, fast, confident, and powerful for decades—if you’re training the right way. Functional strength is your secret weapon. It keeps you moving well, running efficiently, and feeling capable both on the run and in your everyday life. If you want to run strong for life, this episode is your blueprint. Let’s keep you performing at your best for many years to come.
