Matt Zelaya’s path into endurance sports wasn’t exactly a straight line. He played football through college, competed on American Ninja Warrior, tried Spartan races, and eventually found himself running marathons, completing an Ironman, racing 100-milers, competing in Hyrox, and continually looking for the next challenge.

In this track, Matt and I talk about what drives that constant progression, why he tends to sign up for things that scare him, and what he’s learned from the injuries, setbacks, PRs, and races that haven’t gone according to plan. We also get into how endurance training has changed the way he approaches work and everyday life, and how those experiences have shaped the way he coaches other athletes.

🎽👟 On this Track of The Allie G Show, Allie sits down with Justin Kaufy, a running coach, endurance athlete, and founder of Team Keep, for a candid conversation about training, mindset, and the discipline behind long-term progress.

Kaufy shares how he went from being injured, and inconsistent to fully committing to endurance sports and coaching. The conversation covers his approach to marathon and ultra training, why consistency matters more than perfection, how he thinks about recovery and race prep, and the role that tough love and accountability play in both coaching and life.

What does it take to run 137+ miles through the streets of New York City? To run across New Jersey? To run 200 miles in the heat of Florida?

This week, I'm joined by Vin Kennedy, a New Jersey native whose running journey has taken him from being a self-proclaimed "weekend warrior" to tackling a 200 mile race, running across the state of New Jersey, and most recently winning the $1 Ultra in New York City.

Tim shares what it's like to sign up for a race where you don't know the course ahead of time, how he navigated nearly 68 miles through the streets of New York - including the chaos of Times Square - and what it took mentally and physically to keep going until he was one of the last runners standing.
