Life in Stride

On this episode, the boys conducted an epic podcast. We had many of our close friends, beloved guests, and some Life in Stride athletes on the pod to celebrate episode 169. It was a lot of fun getting to chat with so many people on one episode. If you have been listening to this pod for a long time, you will definitely enjoy this one.

On this episode, the boys had on special guest Taggart Van Etten! Taggart was one of our original guests on Life in Stride, if you want to get to know him more check that first one out!

Taggart recently announced he will be going after the American record in the 100 miler at Tunnel Hill this year. This is about a 6:40 pace/mile. There will be good competition there so it should be an exciting race! We chatted about fueling and training for that kind of effort.

We also talked about chasing the OTQ time, Chris meeting Taggart at a wedding, and more! Enjoy!

On this episode, the boys had on special guest Shane Burke! Shane has an amazing story we are excited to share with you. In February 2021, he was diagnosed with brain cancer. After several rounds of chemo, he was in remission by the fall of 2021!

He started running in 2022, and worked his way from a half marathon all the way up to a full Ironman in Lake Placid this July! Shane is an extremely motivated individual and wants to push his limits. We can’t wait to see what he does next!

On this episode, the boys had on special guest Eric Floberg! We started off chatting about Eric’s upcoming half and how he is hoping to perform. We also talked about how his Chicago build is going!

We also talked about his new YT series “No Time” and how it all came to be. He planned this series months in advance and as you know, it’s been really special so far!

Finally, we got into some career discussion. Eric talked about building multiple revenue streams and focusing on what he is passionate about and in turn he has a successful career with ultimate flexibility.

As we said on the intro, we love Flo. Such a good episode with him as always, we are thankful for his friendship!

Enjoy!

On this episode, the boys had on special guest Johannes Motschmann! This is Johannes third time on the pod and it’s always a fun chat with him!

He is currently in St. Moritz training for a sub 2:10 attempt at the Berlin Marathon next month. The last time we chatted, he was coming off a dissapointing Boston Marathon. He has made some exciting changes in his training going into Berlin that we talked about on this episode!

Best of luck in Berlin Johannes!!!

On this episode, the boys went off on a bunch of tangents. The big news at the top of the show was Danny seems to have defeated his Zyn addiction. A massive W.

On this episode, the boys fumbled some communication with a guest and had a spur of the moment banter episode. As you can imagine based on the title, this one is chaotic and a lot of fun.

We talked about USA Outdoor Track Champs but focused on some of the more dramatic things: Sha’Carri’s arrest, Lyles vs Bednarek beef, and more!

We also chatted about Scotty’s recent odd dreams, treadmills, ChatGPT, and other randomness.

Enjoy and leave a review :)

On this episode, the boys had on special guest Everett Smulders! Everett is a sub-4 miler and 2 x NCAA D1 All American. Post-collegiately, he is a full time coach living in Amsterdam. He has done marathons, Ironmans, ultra marathons, and even an ULTRAMAN (listen for that story- it’s crazy).

This was a really entertaining pod! Everett has a strong personality and that comes through on some of the topics discussed, such as lactate and HR training. Make sure you give him a follow below!

On this episode, the boys did a little banter for your long run!!!!! We chatted about how we pick the marathons we choose. This can range from cost of travel, weather, friends also running the race, etc.

We also talked about the importance of doing hard things and how a lot of life is very frictionless right now. It’s important to get out of your comfort zone and do hard/uncomfortable things to grow. Is that why so many people are running now?

Finally, we covered some pro running news. Grand Slam Track hasn’t paid out their prize money to athletes yet and people are getting angry! Also- USA outdoor track champs are this weekend. Enjoy!!

On this episode, the boys had on legendary Wyatt Moss. Wyatt just finished visiting all 7 Wonders of the World and we got to hear some stories behind that amazing trip (including not being allowed in Brazil !!!).

We also got some info on Wyatt’s next challenge: Hitchhiking to all 50 States. As always, this conversation with Wyatt was super interesting and inspiring. He explained the importance of his faith and the reason he has been pursuing all of these challenges.

And yes of course - he is still getting his 1 mile a day run in 😀

Enjoy!
