Adventures In Running

Hello fellow friends! Welcome back to the podcast! I’m so sorry it has taken me forever to get this episode out, I’ve been really busy the last few weeks. But finally I’m back and ready to share this episode with you guys!

Today I talk about what I wish I knew as a new runner! I’ve been running for 5 years and I’ve made a lot of mistakes. But those mistakes have helped me learn and grow in so many ways! And I want to share what I’ve learned with you! I’m not anywhere close to being a perfect runner, and I’m definitely going to make more stupid decisions along the way. But each time I do I want to learn from it, and that’s what this episode is all about!

Hello fellow friends! In today’s episode I talk about 3 ways (other than running) to level up your training!

Hello fellow friends! Welcome to episode 25! Today we are talking all about running shoes, more specifically how to buy the perfect running shoe!

Finding the perfect shoe is super important because our feet are the foundation of our body. They carry and support everything we do on the run, so it’s crucial to give them something that fits right! And let’s be honest sometimes shopping all on your own can feel overwhelming! How do you know what exactly is the right size or the best type of shoe for your feet?! So that’s why I wanted to make this episode all about tips and tricks for finding the perfect running shoe for you!

Hello fellow friends! Since last episode was all about what I learned from running a marathon, and the another episode before that was all about tapering for a Marathon, I figured it was only right for this episode to be about recovery from a marathon!

I am always wanting to go go go. And I think as runners, we are constantly thinking one step ahead. Already planning for the next training block the day after the big race. And we overlook perhaps one of the most important aspects of training, recovery. I know I am guilty of this.

So in this episode I wanted to take you through some basic tips for post race recovery so you can bounce back sooner, and stronger then before! And this applies to ANY race/training block. No matter the distance, you still need to recover!

Hello fellow friends! As you may already know, I recently ran my first marathon! It was an amazing experience, I had a blast, and I also learned a lot about racing and running. So in this episode I wanted to share the top things I realized over the course of 26.2 miles with you guys!

The night after my marathon I quickly wrote down my experience, and everything that I learned. 3 weeks later I’m excited to turn this into a podcast episode! I talked about what I’ve learned based on my marathon experience, but this can 100% be applied to any distance from a 5k to an ultra! And I really hope you find it helpful:)

Hello fellow friends! Welcome to episode 20 of the podcast!

My first marathon is coming up in a few days, and I’ve been doing a lot of research about tapering!

Some runners love it, and others hate it, but no matter how you feel about tapering it’s so so important! There are a ton of benefits to tapering including, but not limited to, it returns your muscles glycogen stores to peak levels, muscles and connective tissues strengthen, improved immune system, boosts oxygen carrying blood cells, and just over all less stress on the body to help you give 100% on race day!

But in order to achieve all of that you need to get the taper right! So in this episode I wanted to share everything I know about it! I’ll cover all things from when to start, what mileage you should be doing each week, what types of runs are best, how to do a speed session, nutrition tips, and some other helpful things to know about tapering for a marathon!
