Healthy Runner Podcast

As a runner in my mid-fifties the content on this pod seems to speak directly to me! I love all of guests and info. Keep it coming.

As a student with an exercise science degree who is now perusing their doctoral of Physical Therapy degree, I am always looking to learn more about exercise and the body. I grew up being an athlete but was never able to run more than 2 miles up until 2 years ago. I slowly began to increase my mileage and now have run 2 half marathons. Before my first, I wasn’t sure what I was doing and really just signed up for the race because I had been running so much. I continued to run and once I realized I had been improving and my long runs were feeling easier, I started taking it a little more seriously and came across this podcast. Because of this podcast, I grew tremendously in my confidence in structuring my training weeks, understanding the why behind certain workouts, focusing more on my nutrition and ensuring I was providing my body with the proper fuel, and an endless amount of other ways. All summer, this was the podcast I would go to for my long runs and my two favorite episodes that I listened to on repeat going into my second half marathon were how to prepare for your half marathon and what to do immediately following your half marathon. I truly believe these two episodes transformed my pre race, race, and post race. I PRd by 17 minutes and felt AMAZING right after and the days to follow! Duane Scotti is also very willing to speak with listeners and is a welcoming presence!

As a passionate runner, I’ve listened to lots of running related podcasts. The professional PT guidance and encouragement to work through injuries is unmatched! Thank you!!

Just recently discovered this and I’m so glad I did! It’s very informative for the everyday adult runner looking to improve and stay healthy and motivated, and also very entertaining.
