This week, I had the pleasure of interviewing Jess Bojorquez. Jess is a runner who was born with a degenerative tissue disease, meaning she's actually missing certain ligaments and tendons in her body - and yet she still chose to pursue running.

For a lot of us - it can be really, really easy to forget how hard running can be and how lucky we are to be able to do it.

When I first saw Jess's story, I knew I wanted to share it with as many people as I could because sometimes, we all need a little perspective.

I'm not going to spoil any more of it.

Just listen to it.

And then share it.

We all need a story like this sometimes.

In working with athletes, I see one mistake more than any other - a lack of adaptability. In this episode, I discuss how to adapt your training to your lifestyle, as well as the longest intro ever about prioritization.

It's a short one - hope you find it helpful!

This week I had the pleasure of interviewing Andy Wind - an old friend of mine who entered the ultrarunning scene fairly recently and has taken some big podium spots, like 3rd place overall at Run Rabbit Run 100-miler and 3rd place overall at Zion 100k.

We sat down to discuss ultras, training, recovery, and the importance of doing hard things.

NOTE: Andy's currently located in Australia, so sorry for a little talking over each other or awkward pauses as we tried to deal with a slight lag.

Maybe you've heard that you need to "fix" your running form - but what does that even mean? There are so many schools of thought when it comes to running that it can be hard to know what's true. While your running form might look different from everyone else's, there are some universal things that hold true for almost everybody.

That's what this episode is about.

If you've been trying to improve your running form so you can go faster and avoid injury - or figure out if changing your form is even a good idea - then you're going to love this episode.

If you know someone else who has been battling form issues, please send this their way.

Thank you for listening!

If you've ever gone out on a day that was notably hotter than planned, you know - heat can RUIN an otherwise great plan. The same plan that worked great at 60 degrees will probably be a complete failure at 90 - tanking your performance and taking away your fun.

This episode is all about heat management. What you can do both BEFORE and DURING your race to help beat the heat.

This week I got to interview a friend of mine, Keegan Hollrith - a young ultrarunner who just finished his first 100k at the Beaverhead Endurance Runs.

We sat down to discuss training, nutrition, and why sometimes a trail poop can be life changing.

I hope you enjoy the episode.

Running any ultra is a HUGE goal. In spite of all the training and the suffering, I think a lot of us forget just how tough this sport truly is. As we get into the later part of summer, here are some key strategies to hitting your goals this season and next.

Undereating is incredibly common in the world of ultrarunning - and by the time you find out you're underfueling it can often be too late. You can be struggling with long-term conditions like RED-S and Overtraining Syndrome before you even know it. If you want to know whether or not you're eating enough to support your training and have the most fun on the trails, this one's for you!

This week I had the pleasure of interviewing David Theriot - someone who's been running ultramarathons for almost a decade. He's the host of the Run the Riot podcast as well as a truly impressive athlete. 

He's also a running coach, public speaker, and has a lot of wisdom to share with people who are looking to get into the sport or take their next step along their journey.

I love talking with David. He and I don't have time to sit down often, but every time we chat, it's an easy, interesting conversation where we both nerd out about running and have some good laughs.

I hope you enjoy the episode.
