#533 - Allie Caminiti: Mastering the Mind Game


Listen Later

Allie Caminiti has been running for over 20 years, both competitively and recreationally. She is a sub-3 hour marathoner and her first marathon was the TCS NYC Marathon in 2014 where she unexpectedly qualified for Boston. She has completed 12 marathons ranging from large city races to small town courses with small fields and few spectators. She has run five of the six World Marathon Majors, including NYC, Boston, Chicago, Tokyo, and Berlin.

In this episode Allie provides us valuable information on how overcome the mental challenges we face as runners while still striving for goals and to be our best running selves. It's a difficult needle to thread but Allie provides the tools to do just that.

Recent Races: 

  • Winner (1st female, 4th overall) San Francisco Ultra Marathon 2022 in a time of 6:47, breaking the -course record by 1 hour 45 minutes. 
  • Winner (Overall winner) One Day in San Francisco 2022 6 hour Race running 43.1 miles in 6 hours.

  • Allie started running ultramarathons postpartum, but was fortunate to be able to run through her pregnancy and even ran the day she went into labor! Getting back into running postpartum has been a journey indeed, but going through a range of symptoms helps make Allie a great running coach for women returning to running after baby. 

    We have a new segment called "5 Questions presented by Running Warehouse." Here are links to a few of the shoes Allie mentioned:

    • Saucony Kinvara
    • HOKA Rincon
    • Nike Alphafly
    • Nike Vaporfly
    • Saucony Endorphin Elite
