Hey #RunSpesh fam! Oska, Tom, and Anna are back with the original intro, bringing the energy (unlike last week's "flatter than a French crepe" vibe!). This week, we're diving deep into the human locomotive movement we call running, with some serious laughs and honest takes along the way.
If you're new here, buckle up! This podcast is your perfect companion for those 60-70 minute runs, your commute, or even for chilling on the couch. And if you're watching on YouTube, you'll notice our studio set is looking 🔥 with a fresh coat of paint and some professional lighting!
What We're Covering- Training Week Deep Dive: Hear about our individual training journeys, including Tom's fight back to fitness and Oska's hilarious (and humbling!) new S&C program. Spoiler alert: Oska just discovered his hamstrings exist! 😉
- The Cross Country Lowdown: Oska gives us the inside scoop on the National Cross Country course, revealing just how tough it's going to be – no flat, manicured golf course here!
- Gastro & Grad School: Anna shares her recent battle with RSV and the anticlimactic (but liberating!) feeling of finishing her university degree.
- Shoe Fatigue & Uniqueness: We tackle a hot topic: Is the running shoe industry becoming too homogenous? With brands increasingly using shared "lasts" and similar designs, we discuss whether this lack of uniqueness is stalling running shoe development and training.
Plus, we've got some juicy stats from RunRepeat to kick off the shoe debate:
- Average Men's Running Shoe Weight (2023): 277 grams
- Average Women's Running Shoe Weight (2023): 238 grams
- Average Road Shoe Heel-to-Toe Drop: 8.4 mm
- Average Trail Shoe Heel-to-Toe Drop: 7 mm
- Average Road Shoe Heel Stack Height: 28.7 mm
We also chat about Bandit running gear, Tom's cold-weather cycling struggles, Oska's dad jokes (sorry, not sorry!), and the weirdest things found in quiz night answers. And yes, we will be stocking Bandit!
So, grab your headphones (or pull up YouTube), and get ready for some real talk about running, life, and everything in between!
What's your take on running shoe uniqueness? Are you feeling the "shoe fatigue" too? Let us know in the comments below!
