At the end of each episode of Trail Talk, I invite listeners to submit questions or topics. Usually I respond quickly on Twitter or email to any questions, but sometimes they're topics I believe most runners could benefit from discussing. Today I pick two recent questions that fit that mold, and answer them on the latest episode. They're questions on running shoe replacement and rotation, and everyday nutrition for runners. Both common concerns for runners of all abilities.

Most plans for endurance events include training or practice races of a shorter distance ahead of your main goal race. In my opinion, these are the most important runs on your schedule. But how do you attack a race... that isn't a goal race? That's what we cover in today's episode of Trail Talk.

How to Run a "Training" Race

I have no time to run. Or at least that's the excuse I tried to pull on my wife the other day. In today's episode I share her response, and what it means for us as runners. Plus, results from the RCR Pack survey.
