Ep. 314 - Two Things I'm NOT DOING With My Running This Year

This year, I’m taking a few things off the table when it comes to my running.First: I’m done calling runs “bad.”Hard? Sure. Uncomfortable? Absolutely.But “bad” doesn’t actually tell us anything useful—and it usually creates more noise than clarity.Second: I’m not overreacting to one data point.One tough run. One off week. One moment of doubt.None of those define your training—or your potential.In this episode, I talk about why these two decisions matter, how they’ve changed the way I approach training, and why perspective—not perfection—is what actually carries you through long seasons and long races.If you’ve ever questioned your fitness because of one run… this one’s for you.⭐️ GET THE FREE ULTIMATE 50K TRAINING TOOLKIT ➡️ CLICK HERE TO JOIN MY PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP 📸 FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM 📝 IF I HELPED YOU RUN YOUR FIRST ULTRA, FILL OUT THIS FORM

Ep. 313 - The Undeniable Connection Between Trauma & Ultra Running with Dr. Alison Roy

In this episode I'm chatting with my friend and licensed psychologist, Dr. Alison Roy.  She's been a guest on the show before, way back in 2023 - episode 171.  This time around, I wanted to explore the topic of trauma and why she thinks there are so many people in the sport of ultras that have experienced trauma. During this episode we also touch on being an adaptive athlete & some real-time skills that you can use out there on the trails if you're looking to improve your mental resilience. Follow Dr. Alison Roy's professional account on Instagram hereFollow her personal account hereWork with Dr. Alison⭐️ GET THE FREE ULTIMATE 50K TRAINING TOOLKIT ➡️ CLICK HERE TO JOIN MY PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP 📸 FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM 📝 IF I HELPED YOU RUN YOUR FIRST ULTRA, FILL OUT THIS FORM

Ep. 310 - Growth Is Cringe & I'm Proof!

Every once in a while, I get a message from someone who’s just discovered the podcast and tells me they’re starting from episode one.And every time…I cringe a little.Not because I’m embarrassed (okay, maybe a little).But because that version of me isn’t who I am anymore.In this episode, I talk about why that cringe actually matters—and why it’s a good thing.If you’re not uncomfortable with your past work, past decisions, or past version of yourself…there’s a good chance you haven’t grown very much. And staying the same might feel safe, but it’s not how progress happens.This episode is a bit of a rant (in a loving way).About growth.About change.About letting yourself evolve without apologizing for who you used to be.If you’ve ever looked back at old training logs, old goals, old beliefs, or old versions of yourself and thought, “Yikes…”—this one’s for you.In this episode, we talk about:Why cringing at your past self is actually a sign of growthWhat it means when you outgrow old ideas, strategies, or identitiesWhy staying the same is far more dangerous than changingHow this applies to training, coaching, and life in generalAnd why I’m okay not being the same coach—or person—I was years agoYou don’t need to erase your past to grow past it.And you don’t need to stay loyal to a version of yourself that no longer fits.Growth is cringe.And that’s how you know it’s working.⭐️ GET THE FREE ULTIMATE 50K TRAINING TOOLKIT ➡️ CLICK HERE TO JOIN MY PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP 📸 FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM 📝 IF I HELPED YOU RUN YOUR FIRST ULTRA, FILL OUT THIS FORM
