Why 80% of Runners Get Injured (And How to Make Sure You Aren’t One of Them)

How do you feel about a future dominated by AI?

In this episode I discuss how AI is going to change our running routine and what we can do about it.

A brief look into our running routine in 5 years time followed by discussion around human interaction and how essential affiliation is for good long term mental and physical health.

Strength training should support your running — not make it feel harder.

In this episode, we talk through how runners often overdo strength and warm-ups without realising they’re sabotaging their running.
We explore why copying gym programs doesn’t transfer well to running, the warm-up mistake that actually increases tension, and how strength should feel when it’s working properly.

This is a one-to-one coaching conversation about integration, not intensity — so you can train with more confidence and less fatigue.

Running isn’t the hard part. Deciding what matters is.

This podcast is for runners who train hard, use data, and still feel unsure if they’re doing the right thing.
Each episode is a calm, one-to-one conversation that helps you cut through noise, understand your body, and make better training decisions — without guessing.

Less confusion. Better running. Long-term confidence.
