Miriam, Part 2
In this episode, I continue my phone call with Miriam who wonders if she may one day qualify for the Boston Marathon. Her current performance time is far from a Boston qualifying time. I think she can qualify and I explained why in the last episode. This part of the conversation moves on to other questions: What training plan should I use? Do I need to be on a track? How often should I do intervals? Here are my answers.

Miriam, Part 1
Miriam and I had a nice phone call about running. She’s a writer who’s currently based in Philly. If you read the New York Times bestselling memoir, “A Journal for Jordan,” you may remember a character named Miriam—that’s her. Miriam’s main question for me is: Can I qualify for the Boston Marathon? The problem is that her fastest Marathon time is one hour slower than the qualifying time. But I still think she can do it. Listen to find out why.

Mike, Part 2
In this episode, I finish my consultation with Mike, who is a 76-year-old roofer with his own business. His days involve a lot of loading and unloading building materials, and carrying them up and down 3-story-tall ladders. Today we discuss why a very particular regimen of exercise—called neuromotor exercise training—is especially useful for him.

Mike, Part 1
In this episode, I talk to Mike who owns a busy roofing company. The pandemic changed the way that his business operates and, as a result, he found himself out of the office and back on the ladder. He immediately discovered that he wasn’t moving like he used to. To his mind, that was a problem and it could be solved by the right program of exercise. I disagreed. Let’s hear why.
