RunRunLive 5.0 - Running Podcast

Hello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-507 of the RunRunLive podcast. Today we talk with Denise Smith who owns physical therapy business in Illinois and we talk about dogs and running with dogs and how that improves the fitness of everyone involved, mentally as well as physically. In section one I’m going to talk about my dogs. In Section two I have an introspective essay on digital pictures. 

Episode 5-506 –Jena on Nutrition for Endurance AthletesHello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-506 of the RunRunLive podcast. In today’s show, if I manage to get it up today, we interview Jena from Victorem nutrition. She reached out to me to be on the show and we had a nice chat about racing nutrition and how to squeeze everything in. In section one I’m going to talk a wee bit about anxiety, because I think there is a fair amount of fear and stress in the world today. I’m going to skip section two because I’m running short on time. 

Episode 5-505 – Race postmortem with coachHello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-505 of the RunRunLive podcast. Apologies for being a couple days late with this one, I had a busy week. This is Mesa Marathon wrap up. Included is a post-mortem chat with my coach. And I’m glad we did this. I’m still learning and trying to figure out what this current version of my machine is capable of. That’s the beauty of racing and the associated training cycle – It’s an experiment and you get to see the results of the experiment.  

Episode 5-504 – Gait Happens with Dr. CourtneyHello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-504 of the RunRunLive podcast. This is a race week episode. I am writing this Intro 5 days out from the Mesa Marathon. As you are listening to this I may be out on the course!In today’s episode we have a great chat with Dr. Courtney Conley from Gait Happens. We have a great conversation about running gait and foot health. She really knows her stuff and you can tell she’s passionate about helping people stay on the roads. I see in my notes that they gave me a coupon code RunRunLive10 – not sure what that gets you but you can look up GaitHappens.com and see what services interest you. So, yeah, I’m racing this week. It’s been a good training cycle. I learned a lot. And I’ll talk about that in Section One. In section two I’m going to give thoughts on a personal power seminar I sat through this week. Because it’s kinda bugging me.  ...Buy a book -> https://booklocker.com/books/13731.htmlWebsite -> http://www.oldmanapocalypse.com Buy me Coffee -> https://www.buymeacoffee.com/cyktrussellSubscribe page on Acast -> https://plus.acast.com/s/after-the-apocalypsePodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/after-the-apocalypseFacebook group -> https://www.facebook.com/groups/oldmanapocalypseYouTube -> https://www.youtube.com/@cyktrussellPatreon to support the show -> https://www.patreon.com/AftertheApocalypseMerch Store -> https://www.teepublic.com/stores/after-the-apocalypse Twitter -> cyktrussell@twitter.comRunRunLiveWebsite -> https://www.runrunlive.comPodcast on Acast -> https://shows.acast.com/runrunlive

Episode 5503 – David runs across VermontHello my running friends. I hope this episode finds you well, whether you are struggling in the deep, dark, depths of winter up here in the northern hemisphere or the pounding, dry, desiccating, hot rays of the sun down under. Today we talk to David who has a story to tell about running across one of our New England states recently. But, before I go any further, I need to share a milestone. I did it! I published the first o f my Apocalypse novels. It’s called After the Apocalypse, a Pandemic Survival Story, Book one: The Old Man. I’m very excited and proud and somewhat exhausted. It’s a beautiful 362 physical pages that you can go buy if you like science fiction or like my writing or just want me to feel like a success! The best place to buy it for me is on my publisher’s website www.booklocker.com – just search for it there or search for my name and you’ll find either the physical version or the e-book. I will get to an audio book version at some point, time and capital permitting. You can also find it anyplace they sell books, like Amazon or Barnes and Noble. If you want to be really supportive you can go leave a review on one o f those sites, or forward the link to your social networks. Tell a friend as they say. In section one I’m going talk a bit about the peak training cycle I’m in and how am navigating it. In section two I’ll talk a bit about the emotional rollercoaster of the publishing process. It’s been a busy couple weeks. I’ll try to be brief! On with the show. 

Hello and welcome to Episode 5-502 of the RunRunLive Podcast. This week we’ll repost a recording I did earlier in the week with Adam and his daughter Cassidy. Adam and I go way back to the beginning of the running podcast explosion. He and Eddie Marathon and I ran the Chicago Marathon in 2012, maybe, I dunno, would have to check the pictures. This is a long recording so I’ll skip the philosophizing for the week. The topic we kind of talk about is why you should consider getting a coach, (among other topics). But, I do think a good coach is like a good team member, where they fill in strength in areas you may be weaker. They help you see and avoid the patterns in you self-destructive behavior. This is where so many ‘get-better’ behaviors go awry. We think people aren’t doing what they think and say they want to be doing, because they don’t have the knowledge or the information. That’s seldom the case. The knowledge is freely available. There’s actually too much information. There are probably 10 -20 reasons they are not changing or adapting behavior on the list above ‘lack of knowledge’ – and those are the things that a coach can help with. Accountability and structure alone are major needs for me to be successful. I don’t need coaches, I need parents! But you see what I’m saying. The coach can help you find what those blockers are and get around them. Anyhow – if you need the unique type of coach that Adam is, give him a call, he’s in a place in his life, like I am, where helping other people is really fun. …Outro:OK campers you have chit-chatted you’re way through the end of episode 5-502 of the RunRunLive podcast, now you can go back to hiding under the bed like a border collie in a thunderstorm. I’m back running this week. My weight is on target. My fitness is good.But of course I had a setback. I got sick. So let me tell you my story. I heard you like stories. I had my race stuff on. I was getting ready to get in the car and head up to Salisbury to race the Hangover Classic 10K and jump in the ocean. When my phone rang. And I’m not going to go into the horrifying state of the American health care system but Instead of racing I spent the day hanging around in hospital emergency room with my mom, who it turns out had Covid. I don’t think I caught Covid, at least the test kit doesn’t think I caught Covid, but I caught something. I should have been doing a big build weekend for my marathon, but instead skipped those workouts.I’m just now getting back to it, but I’m less than a month out from the target race with a long run right now of 13 miles. So it’s going to be another learning experience, although I think I know this lesson by heart, but we can always hope for the ‘marathon miracle’. And that’s it. Got 2-3 weeks of build left.  Let’s see what I can do! And we’ll see you out there.

Episode 5-501 – Prioritization with MiliciaIf you think it’s time to get serious about your health, and take action for yourself, reach out to Rachel at www.drshuck.com/rrl and have a conversation.  Hello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-501 of the RunRunLive podcast. In today’s episode we have a great chat with Dr. Milicia who shares her strategies on how to manage a busy life and prioritize effectively. Milicia is another smart, well-spoken, accomplished person. I’m starting to feel a bit I ntimidated and out of my league with these conversations. But – that’s my ego talking. My goal in these conversations is to interact and learn and to give you all some chewy thoughts to chew on. I think we hit the nail on the head with this one. For the end of the year I have a couple of introspective musings for you. In section one I’ll talk about goals, but not in a way that you are expecting. And in section two I’ll talk about treadmills, again, not in a way you’re expecting.  

Episode 5-500 – Examining the balanced life with Lisa TongHello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-500 of the RunRunLive podcast. I have been working my way through ‘frequently asked questions’ and the next two shows will focus on one that is on the top of most runners’ lists. How do we achieve that ever-elusive balance between our work, our families and our athletic pursuits? And how do we do that in a way that serves us? This week we’ll chat with Lisa who will walk us through her own story as a mom, a professional and a triathlete. I had a blast talking to Lisa. She’s very smart and polished and thoughtful. In section one I’ll talk about road racing and in section two I’ll delve further into the mind space of the artist. ...Lisa Tong, MBA, PCC Entrepreneur, Author, Speaker, Coach Lisa is an ex-corporate consultant and engineer turned entrepreneur, bestselling author, speaker and professionally trained and certified coach and facilitator.
