RUNWITHALLI LIVE

With solid data and a patent pending on the tech, Scott grabbed his high school running buddy John Zilly, a marathoner himself, and together they formed Vimazi. Right at its inception, it committed to championing the spirit of running for all runners. They’ve done that by pursuing the scientific truth about running forces and footwear, wherever it leads. They also champion runners by personalizing shoes according to pace. So every runner gets the shoe they need to feel their best.

Today on the show, we discuss:

• The different types of shoes for different paces 
• The process that forced John & Scott to relearn everything they thought they knew about running shoes to revolutionize a science-backed pace-tuned shoe that works best for you and your running needs

Dr. Michael Yessis, Sports Technique Expert and president of Sports Training Inc,  joins the show's Host, (me) Run Coach Alli. 

Dr. Michael Yessis received his Ph.D. from the University of Southern California and his B.S. and M.S. from City University of New York. He is president of Sports Training, Inc., a diverse sports and fitness company. Dr. Yessis is also Professor Emeritus at California State University, Fullerton, where he was a multi-sports specialist in biomechanics (technique analysis) and sports conditioning and training.

Dr. Yessis has served as training and technique consultant to several Olympic and professional sports teams. He has also trained hundreds of athletes in different sports and developed unique specialized strength exercises that duplicate what takes place in execution of the game skills. By doing these exercises athletes improve skill technique and the physical qualities (strength) specific to the technique. By doing these exercises athletes improve their performance on the field very quickly.

During his fifty plus years of working with athletes, and as president of Sports Training Inc, Dr. Yessis developed what has come to be known as the “Yessis System” . His three-step method has been successfully used to improve athletes in football, soccer, baseball, basketball, track and other sports.  Most notable is the improvement in skill technique (form) and the strength specific to the skill execution.

Dr. Yessis is considered this country’s foremost expert on sports technique. Dr. Yessis has written 17 books in the sports and fitness field including Biomechanics and Kinesiology of Exercise, Build A Better Athlete, Sports: Is It All B.S.?, and his latest, The Revolutionary 1x20RM Strength Training Program.

Today on the show, we discuss the value of running technique and how every runner's journey should begin by focusing on technique. We discuss the importance of understanding how to run faster, and it's not by just simply running more.

We discuss the three most crucial strength specialized running exercises any runner at any level should incorporate into a training program, when to do so, why it's beneficial, where to include it in a program, and how it can change how fast you run; by 80%! Dr. Yessis believes athletes should have access to proven practices that are known to enhance their abilities on the competitive stage, and he has that and more to offer on today's episode of the show!

Meryl Leventon, Race Director of Rock' n' Roll San Diego, joins the show's Host, (me) Run Coach Alli.

In this episode, we learn about what goes into making the event happen, the logistics for mapping out the course, and finding local schools to help celebrate and cheer on all athletes. Meryl and her team create fun incentives to make the event a friendly competition amongst different spectators, one of which includes fun prize money. Who doesn't love that! Enjoy our discussion + MORE covered in this week's episode you won't want to miss! I enjoyed my chat with Meryl - she is AWESOME!

San Diego has a special place in my heart since it's the race where I took 14 minutes off of my Los Angeles Marathon PR in 2016 and Qualified for the 2017 Boston Marathon with a finish time of 3 hours and 21 minutes while running it for the first time. As I came back from an injury and took as I took on coaching as my full-time profession, I continued to enjoy evolving with the sport of distance running. Last October, I snagged a new 19-minute PR competing during the pandemic in October, running the Rock 'n' Roll San Diego Marathon, finishing with an official time of 3 hours, 02 minutes, and 48 seconds. I'm training to run a faster marathon, and I'm honored to say I will be returning for the 25th anniversary Rock 'n' Roll San Diego Marathon in June 2023. I look forward to partnering with Rock 'n' Roll San Diego next June and sharing with you some things that make this race my number #1 favorite marathon during my discussion with half marathoner and amazing Race Director, Meryl Leventon! The pictures say it all. The energy is electric; the crowds are contagious, and the weather is to die for - I cannot rave about it enough! Please don't take my word for it. Enjoy my discussion with Meryl about the course and the beautiful hills and energy that make this race so special! I look forward to partnering with the organization for future initiatives. The best has yet to come!   

If you're thinking of a marathon to sign up for in June and want a fantastic experience or a new PR, the Rock ‘n’ Roll San Diego Half Marathon or Marathon is a MUST!
