Feel Good Running | For the Everyday Runner!

Hello Runners!

Another couple of weeks have passed, and we are continuing to live with this pandemic. Even as some retail stores, parks and restaurants start to re-open, it still feels restricted. Everyone is wearing a mask. It seems so unnatural. I even see more runners out there wearing a buff. It is our current reality…the new normal. But we are survivors.

So runners, has the running race you have been training for been cancelled or postponed? Many races have been, and many more will be. Are you lost and just running to run without a solid goal? Are you new to running, loving it and want more? Maybe you tried a small virtual race, but that was only good for a quick band aid.

Well, this summer we have a solution! The Virtual "Colorado Trail" Challenge. My friend, Coach David Manthey, shared this with me and I said, “We immediately need to do an episode.” This will be such a welcome summertime challenge for runners. Why you ask? Well, it gives runners a solid goal all summer long! Run a total of 500 miles which you can complete within 95 days! June 1 - September 3, 2020. And you can do it anywhere, even on a "dreadmill!" My definition of a treadmill.

In September of 2017, Bryan Williams, an incredible ultra-marathoner who is part of this episode, physically ran the Colorado Trail from Durango to Denver in 8 days and 30 minutes. His crew took video and pictures along the way. You can do this challenge solo or as a 2-person relay. I personally am running the relay with a friend. 

Also joining this episode are two other amazing ultra distance runners, Emily Booth and Jeremy Bradford who are also a part of bringing this event to life. Jeremy, by the way, completed the 3,000 mile transcontinental run across the USA in 2016. He started at the Santa Monica Pier in Los Angeles and ended at City Hall in NYC. It took him 59 days and change.

You will enjoy this episode and be motivated to sign up to do this challenge!

Hello Runners!

Should you wear a mask while running? That is a question that has been kicked around since the Covid-19 pandemic started.

We are now over two months into our lives being abruptly changed by the coronavirus. It feels like a year. I long to run with my running friends and go out to breakfast, eating away the morning after a nice run. But that is probably far off. I am running. Actually, I ran more miles in April than I have in any month the past two years.

As with many of us, I'm doing my job of staying at home, I feel I am contributing my share. That is what we are supposed to do. But I am forever grateful to the selfless front line medical workers that are working day and night to exhaustion saving people but also seeing the ugly side of death. I thank all the other workers; police, firemen, grocery store workers, and so many others that are out there keeping things going. They are putting their life on the line for us. Most are healthy some are not and have passed.

We are fortunate as runners to be able to still go outside and run. But should we be wearing a mask? Well, Scientist Taisa Kushner, Coach David Manthey, and Dr. Christoper Segler give their thoughts. And a few of my serious running friends also provide their thoughts and if they wear a mask while out for a run.

I hope you enjoy this episode. It's different than the others and provides you thought provoking opinions that may help you to decide if you should wear a mask. That is if you haven't already decided.

If you have any comments about this topic, I would love to hear from you. And when I say hear I mean hear. Record a voice message to me by Clicking Here!

Please stay healthy and safe and respect other runners. We will get through this!

Hello Runners!

How are you? Are you doing ok and getting through this pandemic as best you can? Our lives have changed for sure, and self distancing and self isolation is surely difficult especially since we never experienced anything like this in our lifetime. But we will get through it! Keep the faith.

We are fortunate as runners to be able to still go outside and run. There are many runners who are doctors, nurses, police officers, pharmacists and many first responders who are putting their lives on the line to save lives. There are grocery store workers and employees in essential businesses who must work in the general public and are also potentially exposed to the COVID-19 virus. We thank each and every one of you.

In this episode, I'm reaching out to the running community. What are you doing to keep your running and fitness up? Is it getting harder to stay motivated? What is your routine? We can motivate each other. I am starting a forum where you can do just that. It is important that we communicate during this time.

Go to FeelGoodRunning.com and on the main page is a tab to click which gives you the opportunity to record up to a five minute audio message. Let us know what your running routine is like during this pandemic. Feel free to say a few words about what else you are doing to keep yourself busy such as movies or TV shows you are watching, family activities you are doing or even a project you have put off until now.

Don't worry about messing up. I will edit pieces out of what you submit and include them in upcoming episodes. If we get good participation, I will get out two episodes a week as we go through this. This is all about you sharing with other runners! These episodes will be about 15 minutes in length.

I really hope you will participate and share this with your running friends so they can send a voice message themselves. Let's start something here that is positive, inspiring and motivates us all! When you leave your message, please say your first name and where you are from.

Please be safe, wash your hands, wear your mask and stay 6 feet from everyone. Stay healthy and let's hope life gets back to normal soon!

Hello Runners!

How are you? I hope you are doing ok through these tough times with the Covid-19 virus that has shut down our communities and have dramatically changed our lives. I hope you are following the CDC guidelines and self isolating, socially distancing and washing your hands.

I am so thankful that our sport allows us the freedom to still get outside to run. Of course, not in a group and mostly by yourself. If you do run with someone, you still need to keep a distance of 6 feet.

This episode is very special to me and I will cherish this episode forever. In early February, a few of the core runners from the Kihei Wednesday Night Running Group, which I organized for five years, got together at a local craft brew pub, What Ales You. We had a wonderful conversation and talked about our running group and the power of belonging to a running group. You will not only enjoy it but it will remind you of your running group, if you belong to one.

I also give my personal thoughts about the most touching surprise goodbye party for me to send me off to Denver. It was the most touching, wonderful and humbling thing that ever happened to me in my life. And the gift that Kathleen and the group presented too me was very overwhelming. There is a picture of it and other pictures from that night below.

And even the last Wednesday run that night, Zohra wrote in chalk very nice messages along the route. I ran a bit by myself that night and looked at each of those messages.

I miss this group and all the wonderful runners that have made my life so much better. And I am thankful to Kathleen and Josh for keeping the group going.

These are trying times and I would like to hear from you. I hope you are all doing well. Please feel free to send me an email at [email protected] and let me know what is on your mind and if I can provide any advice. I will answer all emails personally. I would love to hear from you and how you are doing.

Be safe, be healthy and do your part so we can all get back to normal soon!

Hello Runners!

How are you? I hope you are all very safe and faring well during these tough and unknown times we all are experiencing with the effects of the COVID-19 virus. Who would have ever thought something like this could happen in this day and age? It has certainly shook up all of our lives and the running world.

In this episode I provide some suggestions how you as a runner can work through, both physically and mentally, the disappointment and frustration of your target race being cancelled. Also I offer suggestions on how you can maintain your running through these trying times, which we all need to do mostly solo due to social distancing. I also talk about what it is like from a Race Director's point of view, the gut wrenching decisions that they must make, and how you can be of help.

My move from Maui to Denver took me away from my Podcast longer than I anticipated. I am sorry for the gap between episodes and no February news. I'm settled comfortably in Denver now and have my office and studio set up. You can expect some consistency from this point.

I'll talk about my move, and how I am adjusting to being back on the mainland after eight years on Maui in Episode #23. It will include a great round table discussion with long time runners, and dear friends from the Kihei Wednesday night run group I headed up there.

These are trying times and I would like to hear from you. Feel free to send me an email at [email protected] and let me know what is on your mind and if I can provide any advice. I will answer all emails personally. I would love to hear from you and how you are coping with the COVID-19 virus change of life.

Hello Runners!

If you are a new runner and have stuck with it for the month of January, how do you feel? Are you happy with your results thus far? Stick with it, keep running, and don't ever give up. You can do it! I know you can.

Well runners, I'm giving up paradise...the warm weather, beautiful beaches, endless beauty and wonderful people. I'm leaving Maui, Hawaii and moving to Denver, Colorado! Yes, now I will be wearing warm clothes, jackets, gloves, hats and long johns.

Seriously, Colorado is a beautiful state and I moved to Maui from Denver so I know the city and state well. I'm so excited to again run the beautiful bike trails and trails and re-engage with my running friends. But most important, I look forward to spending lots of time with two wonderful little grandkids, Carson and Easton!

I love Colorado and am looking forward to being back. So all you Colorado runners, Feel Good Running Podcast will now originate in Denver! It will become even better! Maybe you can come on a tell your story? Send me a Email to Jim Lynch at [email protected] and let me know about any pub runs and group runs around the Denver area.

Hello Runners!

Welcome to 2020 a new year and new decade. Seems almost surreal that we have reached this milestone...well at least those of us who have been around a bit!

This episode was delayed because I got sick. Yup, first time in four years. I was at a New Years Eve party with about 15 or so friends and 11 of us got sick. Some worse than others. I got the cold, cough, chest congestion, sneezing and chills. The whole sick package. So, I am sorry for the delay of this episode.

With a new year, comes new running goals. Some of you may have your goal set and maybe even a target race for this winter or spring. And some of you may be brand new at running and are already seeing incredible results. Please just stick with it.

During my opening comments of this episode, I ask the question are you an extraverted or introverted runner? This is based on an article I came across in the New York Times titled; Running While Introverted by Judy Chaves. Judy is a introvert and I thought about my running and I think I am also a introverted runner. Listen to my opening and let me know what type of runner you are!

So Ashley Schneider is my guest this episode. In 2010 Ashley ran from San Francisco to New York to raise funds and awareness for the terrible disease, Multiple Sclerosis. Her mother Jill lived with MS all her life until she passed away from it in 2017.

From that initial run, in 2013 MS Run the US Relay was born. This is a 19 segment relay that starts in Santa Monica and finishes in New York. Each selected runner will run roughy 150-170 miles in 6 days for their segment. Now in its 7th year, MS Run the US has raised over $1.5 Million Dollars. This is an incredible conversation about a dream that became a reality and is making a difference.

We also spoke to an Ambassador and segment runner, Laura Allred, who gives her view on MS Run the US Relay and why she is involved. Don't miss this conversation. Who knows you may want to get involved!

Expect the January Minisode of Running News to be released on Thursday January 30th. And I will have a big announcement during this episode you will not want to miss!

Just show up and always, ALWAYS feel good about your running!

Hi Runners,

Happy holiday season everyone!

As we wind down this year and decade it is a time to reflect on what you accomplished as a runner. And when I say runner, I mean everyone that laces up their running shoes and goes out there each time to better themselves.

So this past year maybe you trained for a race? Maybe ran a marathon, 10k, 5k or even an ultra. Or maybe you just ran for the physical health benefits or mental healing or whatever reason? So many people have amazing stories of how running has been so life changing and very important to their life.

We have had some of these people as guests in 2019. One special episode that comes to mine is #12 Bonnie VanDeraa. This was just an amazing story and continues to inspire people. Take a listen. So, whatever you accomplished this year be proud! You did it!

Milestone

The Feel Good Running Podcast is one year old! Yup, on December 3rd we celebrated our first year! I cannot thank you enough for giving me a chance and listening to my podcast. I appreciate each and ever one of you.

In 2020, you can expect more episodes with wonderful guests that will inspire and motivate you. These are everyday runners like you and me with a story to tell!

Minisode

Episode #17 - Motivating Running News - Minisode was a hit! This is a shorter episode that features running news stories that inspire, motivate and entertain. You can be sure I will be doing more, and as a matter of fact, you can expect another one this month just before Christmas!

Guests

Michael Klee and Anita Zonker are a wonderful couple. They met in my former running club, Runners Edge of the Rockies in Denver. Both are very close friends of mine and we have a lot of history.

But that aside, this is a heartwarming story of two people later in life that found each other through running and fell in love. So those of you looking for that special someone, well, don't give up. There is hope! Enjoy this episode!

Hello Runners!

Well Happy Thanksgiving! Yes it is that time of year where many of you participate in your local Turkey Trot race. And there are quite a few of them around the country. I love the Turkey Trot because it is a great way to start Thanksgiving morning with a bunch of runners. And you can enjoy a great feast without the guilt! Not a bad deal if you ask me!

So, this is the first Feel Good Running Minisode and I am excited. Simply, a Minisode is a shorter podcast than my regular podcasts where I feature a guest. This episode includes running related news stories that will inspire, motivate and entertain you! I plan to do a monthly running news Minisode which starts with November.

Also, every so often I'll do a Minisode that will feature a topic such as the pros and cons of running with headphones. Speaking of headphones, there are only one brand of headphones I endorse for running and running safety. I recently had an interview all set up with this company and then they ghosted me. So, they are on my frustration list. I'll work on them after the first of the year.

Please let me know how you like the Minisodes. Just click here to leave a comment.
