Sydney is a 21 year-old college student at BYU with ambitions of becoming a professional ultra-runner after college.

Sydney ran over 6,000 miles last year as a full-time college student with a part-time job, she is in the gym five days a week, only eats whole foods, and has an impressive recovery routine.

    #245 - Puma Fast R3 > Nike AlphaFly, World Half Record Denied, Is Winter Over Yet?

    Need a marathon coach? Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us! Welcome back to another banter episode with the boys! The intro on this episode was.... wow. The boys definitely need to try out at American idol. Danny got a pair of the Puma supershoes and he is convinced they are better than the Alphafly's - what do you think? They are going to be his race shoe at Mesa next weekend! We also talked about some recent running news, including Jacob Kiplimo's world half-marathon record NOT being ratified + a 16 year-old running 3:48 in the mile? We finished off talking winter running (a common theme lately, it's been brutal out there for many of us) + we each listed some underrated things. Enjoy!

    #239 - Olympic Trials Marathon in STL? + Way Too Early Picks, Danny Peak Long Run in Snowpocalypse

    Visit lisrunning.com for coaching! On this banter episode, Chris and Danny started off talking a lot about the Olympic Trials Marathon! In very exciting recent news, the race is going to be held in either Phoenix or St. Louis. Obviously Danny lives in St. Louis, so he is really excited about the potential of the race happening there! On the same topic, we made our picks for way-too-early U.S. Olympic Marathon team. This was largely influenced by Ethan Shuley's epic half-marathon in Osaka last weekend where he ran 60:59 and Grant Fisher running his debut half at NYC half soon! We also chatted Danny's peak long run in freezing conditions, Canova training, and more! Enjoy!
