Marathon Running Podcast by Letty & Ryan

The Long Run In this episode we are tackling the long run. We will give you a definition of the long run and then we will dive into the benefits of the long run along with some research. We will specifically talk about the mental benefits of the long run, and then talk about how long a long run should be (as we discuss the different “methods” of the coaches writing the plans). We will also play a quick clip by Dr. Jack Daniel who tells us his opinion about what the optimal time of a long run should be. Last but not least we will talk about how to start making your weekend runs longer, and fueling on the days you run long!

In this episode we are going to do a race recap of the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon. This marathon is special as there is so much meaning and history to it. In April of 1995, two men destroyed the Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City filling 168 people, 10 of which were children. This marathon exists to keep the memories of those victims alive and remind us that we can overcome hard things when we come together. One highlight of this marathon included an expo with a panel of legends (Bill Rodgers, Joan Benoit Samuelson, Dick Beardsley, and others) who were there to answer questions of the running community. In this episode we also got to interview race director Kari Watkins.

Here, in an attempt to get motivated again, we examine why we run and name some reasons to run.

In this episode we talk about all things recovery. If you have just finished the Boston Marathon, congratulations. Or any other race, that is. Here are a few things to keep in mind as you try to make the most of your experience.

In this episode we talk about two very important topics: 1. MARATHON BLUES and 2. POST MARATHON RECOVERY. The marathon blues, also known as post race depression, is a sentiment that a lot of runners experience after the race. We will give you a proper definition, and will talk to you about the symptoms, causes, and how to handle these feelings.  When it comes to post marathon recovery, we see much advice on the internet about how much time to take off after your marathon, but very little information as to why those numbers are prescribed. So we look at some studies that will give us an idea how to translate the results of the studies into what is best for us runners as an individual. We will also talk about what things to do and what things not to do to speed up our recovery.

Well, then you’re not the only one. In this episode we talk about some common concepts in the running community: Runners’ Amnesia and Marathon Addiction. In this episode we talk about what these concepts are and that they are way more common than you think.  We also interview fellow podcaster and race director Jim Lynch about his journey of running a certified marathon in each one of the 50 states of the USA, earning the "50 certified states marathons" title.

From there we talk a bit about some of the common rituals, our own race day rituals, and last but not least, we talk about some of our listener’s rituals.

1.  In this episode, we talk to Thomas Steffens, in charge of communications at the Berlin Marathon.

Amy is internationally recognized for her individualized, lifestyle-focused approach, which integrates realistic food plans, smart eating habits, and active living. Through encouragement, education, and the right “tricks of the trade”, Amy believes that anyone can achieve their nutritional goals while still enjoying the foods and flavors they crave.

How much slower than my fast pace? If you’re running a distance race, is it better to be fast at short distances and draw the speed out or have endurance under your belt and speed up your long runs? What should my weekly mileage be in my marathon cycle? What should my race pacing strategy be? How and why does speed work and strides help my pace? When in my marathon cycle should I start doing speed work? What should my longest run really be and why don’t I have to run 26 miles? What are some tips better running economy?

In this episode spoke with Bryan Green, the author of Make the Leap - a sports psychology book for runners. Through his book, Bryan demonstrates that the key to unlocking one’s potential isn't in training harder or doing more sophisticated workouts. Rather, it's in thinking better about your training. Think better, train better. His book provides athletes and coaches a step-by-step guide to thinking more effectively about all aspects of training. We asked him about some of the main concepts, including how “the leap” works, the concept of “the hidden training plan”, as well as many definitions of words and concepts that - when applied to running - make us rethink how we should think.

In this episode we asked Australian physiotherapist and host of the number 1 running podcast, Brodie Sharpe, about running form! Is there such a thing as the “perfect running form”? And although the answer was obvious (and let’s face it, the goal of our running form analysis is simply to prevent injury and to run economically so that we can run safely and fast) - as always with Brodie, we learned quite a bit. Listen in if you want to learn about the different phases of our running strides, what happens in each of them, and what things should be taken into consideration when looking at our running form, and what some definite must-correct things are we might do, and how to go about them.

In this episode we spoke about using our logged miles to do something good. All of us have running watches or some sort of device that enables us to track out progress. Well, there are a few option, and you don’t have to pick one. There are many ways to log your miles. One option is to sign up with achievements, where you can log miles. Once you reach 10,000 points, you can get yourself a gift card or donate your miles to charity. Very simple, and here is a link: https://tinyurl.com/yheruj5s That is something really rewarding. And if you wanna do even more, you can do so. There’s a company that allows you to log your miles with them, automatically, and those miles will earn $ for a good case. So we decided to interview Gene Gurkoff. Gene Gurkoff is the Founder of Charity Miles, a free iPhone/Android app that enables people to earn money for charity when they walk, run or bike. He explains the history of the company as well as how all this works.
