I have gotten out of the practice of writing race reports. 

How does this work again? 

Oh yeah, now I remember…

I’m supposed to start with a high-stakes moment in the race, describe it in compelling detail, get you breathless and hooked, and then, pull the rug out and leave you with a cliff-hanger. 

Make it compelling, hook the reader in right up front. Give them enough information to ride the ride and promise them a satisfying resolution.

Then go back and fill in the messy details, exposition and clutter. 

And there should be some sort of thread. A thought or expression that provides a bit of backbeat to keep the bits entangled and syncopated, like you do.

Hello my running friends. And welcome to episode 5-517 of the RunRunLive Podcast. 

Today we are continuing on our theme of how to navigate the transitional seasons of our lives. I have a interview with Tamas from Tasmania who compiled a wonderful book of wisdom from famous fitness teachers. 

In section one I’m going to give you something short and sweet and in section two I’ll give you some more discourse around the teachings from Tamas’ book. 

I know I haven’t been releasing the show with alacrity, but I also know that there is a core crew of you folks out there that are my friends that appreciate it when I do drop a show.

Hello my running friends. And welcome to episode 5-516 of the RunRunLive Podcast. 

Yeah, yeah, yeah… I know it’s been a couple of months and I’ve left you hanging. You’ve either lost interest or you’re super worried that I’ve fallen off the edge of the world. Are you? Have you been checking hospitals and morgues?

Hello my running friends. And welcome to episode 5-515 of the RunRunLive Podcast. 

It’s been a long hot summer and now it’s time to race so I figured I’d give you my race preview.

In section one I’ll talk through my training cycle, in the interview I catch up with my coach to see what he thinks and in section two we’ll talk about the power of being present in your training.

I haven’t spoken with you since July. At the time I let you know that I would be slowing down the RunRunLive release cycle because my life is pretty busy right now and this fall is going to be filled with stuff.

Hello my running friends. And welcome to episode 5-514 of the RunRunLive Podcast. Today we have a chat with Lee who is a coach that focuses on the older ‘serious athlete. 

We talk about something that I’m trying to puzzle out myself as I graduate into codgerhood. We talk about a specific cohort of runners who are fairly serious about their pursuit, but struggling with how to keep their performance high without breaking themselves as they get older.

It’s an eye opening conversation which makes me wonder if I’ve been asking the right questions.

In section one I’m going to muse on the ‘one percent rule’. 

In section two I’m going to talk about the state of podcasting.

I know it’s been about a month since I released a show. Part of it is that I’ve been busy and part of it is that I’m just not feeling it. 

We’ll leave it at that for now. I’ll talk about my mediocre training in the outro.

Hello my running friends. And welcome to episode 5-513 of the RunRunLive Podcast. Today we have a chat with our friend Eric Buckley about how to baseline your racing fitness when you are in a new season of life. But the same would apply to anyone beginning a new structured training program or coming back from an injury. You wonder, ‘Where do I start?’ Well today we are going to answer that question. 

Or at least give it a good chewing over. 

In section one I’ll go deeper into this baselining topic and how I’ve been working through it myself. 

In section two I’m going to give you some book reviews, because I have been consuming so many books, I need to celebrate some of them and clear my desk. 

In the outro I’ll talk through my recent training, what I have learned and how I’m using that to set new goals. 

I’ll also revisit my summer goal list.

Hello my running friends. 

Today is the last of our four episodes focusing on the culture hate. We have a conversation with Michael and talk about it from an athlete’s point of view. 

In section one I have a delightful story for you about industrial poultry products and in section two is a summary of what I think we have learned from this fou-episode arc. 

Don’t worry, next episode we will be back in the running sphere of things. 

I do appreciate you humoring my little road trip around the hate and polarization topic. And one of the learnings for me from todays chat with Michael is that managing this polarized culture requires the same discipline that we use every day to get in shape and train for events. 

We have the toolset already.  We can approach it as another self-improvement campaign, like a marathon training cycle. 

So, do the work people! Society needs us. This is our moment.

Hello my running friends. 

Today we have a conversation with Kim about the negative physical and mental impact you get from participating in the culture of hate and outrage.  I had a lot of fun talking to Kim. It felt like a very synchronized conversation. 

This is the third in my four sessions on hate culture and polarization. Hopefully you find some nuggets in there that help you. 

In section one I’m going to talk about how to re-find your paces when you get into a new season of training. 

In section two I’m going to give some tips on having conversations with people you disagree with.
