Team O Run Podcast

Is your next race hosting pace groups for athletes to achieve specific finish times? Are you thinking about running with a pace group at your next race? If so then this podcast will outline some of the things to be aware of with pace groups in races. I talk about factors that affect success of pacers and running with a pace group as well as mental aspects of running in groups. For some athletes pace groups are a great way to target a goal and for others they may perform better running their own race.

Are you an urban or suburban runner? How often are you running on concrete or asphalt? With kids returning to school I am reminded of cross country season and running on varied surfaces. In this episode I talk a little about changing up your running by getting out on some other surfaces like dirt, gravel, and grass. I cover some things to think about when doing so for the first times and about making a plan to get out there.
