    Episode 149: The Runner’s Guide to Strength Training

    This week, Corrine Malcolm and Keely Henninger dig into one of the most common questions they hear from endurance athletes: how should runners actually strength train? They break down why lifting can improve running economy, force production, muscle recruitment, tendon strength, and durability — and why those benefits matter just as much for ultrarunners as they do for athletes chasing faster speeds. They also get practical about what strength training should actually look like, including how often to lift, where to fit it into a running week, why heavier weights and lower reps may offer runners more benefit than endless high-rep exercises, and how plyometrics and eccentric work can prepare the body for the demands of technical trails and long descents. Plus, they talk about fueling for muscle adaptation and why strength becomes even more important across different stages of life, including perimenopause and menopause. It’s a science-heavy but highly practical conversation about getting stronger, running more efficiently, and building a body that can keep doing this sport for the long haul.

    Episode 148: Sabrina Pace-Humphreys on Representation, Responsibility, and the Return to UTMB

    This week, Corrine Malcolm is joined by Sabrina Pace-Humphreys to talk about two kinds of endurance: returning to UTMB after a heartbreaking race, and continuing the long-term work of making trail running a more inclusive sport. They talk about what Sabrina learned from last year’s UTMB, why she’s coming back, and how her work with Black Trail Runners has shaped the way she thinks about belonging, representation, and responsibility. It’s a thoughtful conversation about resilience, community, and what happens when an athlete who spends so much time creating space for others asks what she wants for herself.

    Episode 147: RED-S, Recovery, and the Stress We Don’t Count

    This week, after a Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift debrief, Corrine Malcolm and Hillary Allen take on RED-S and low energy availability through Hillary’s own recent experience with injury and recovery. What started as overreaching and under-recovery became a bigger lesson in how training stress, work stress, life changes, sleep, fueling, and healing all draw from the same finite pool of energy. They talk about: why RED-S can affect athletes at any sizewhy it isn’t synonymous with disordered eatinghow low energy availability can slow injury recoveryand why even athletes who understand the science can still miss the signs in themselves. It’s a candid, practical conversation about listening sooner, fueling enough, and learning that stress is stress — no matter where it comes from.

    Episode 145: Running, Identity, and the Lives We’re Building

    This week, Corrine Malcolm and Keely Henninger step back from training plans to talk about something endurance athletes rarely discuss: how our relationship with running is supposed to change. Corrine reflects on IVF, pregnancy, and becoming a mom, while Keely shares what it feels like to make room for medicine, a demanding new career, and a different version of athletic life. They explore identity, uncertainty, the pressure to be all in or all out, and why allowing sport to evolve doesn’t mean it matters any less. It’s an honest conversation about who we become when the lives we’re building grow bigger than running.

    Episode 144: Access, Innovation, and Adaptive Trail Running with Nicole Ver Kuilen

    This week, Corrine Malcolm is joined by Nicole Ver Kuilen — endurance athlete, cancer survivor, advocate, and National Campaign Lead for So Every BODY Can Move — for a conversation about access, innovation, and what true inclusion in trail running really looks like. They talk about Nicole’s relationship with sport after losing her leg to bone cancer as a child, what drew her to trail running, and the very real barriers adaptive athletes still face long before they ever reach a start line. The two also dig into Nicole’s advocacy work, her recent milestone as Salomon’s first American para athlete, and what it meant to race MaXi-Race while helping shape the future of adaptive trail running through the Salomon Adaptive Project. It’s a thoughtful conversation about representation, equipment, design, and why building a more inclusive sport starts with making movement possible in the first place.
