ALL of the OTQ Boyz: Managing the Off Season, Training Ruts, Finding a Run Group

In this episode, the boys had the three other members of their OTQ Boyz text group on the pod: Sam Bland, Sam Meredith, and Chris Sadler. We were discussing what topic to cover on this one and thought it would be fun to have these boys on and help us break down some topics. We talked about what training looks like in the racing off-season, the importance of finding a good running group, how to get through a training rut and more! This episode is unhinged and a lot of fun, we will definitely have the boys back on this year. Enjoy!

Adam Popp - World Class Para Athlete, Masters in Sport & Performance Psychology, Danny Therapy Sesh

In this episode, the boys are joined by special guest Adam Popp. In 2007, Adam was working to disarm an IED in Afghanistan when a secondary IED injured him, leading to amputation of his right leg above the knee. In a moment, his life was changed forever. Trying to figure out his next steps, Adam ended up getting two Master’s Degrees (Sport and Performance Psychology and Rehabilitation Counseling) and decided to start running in 2015. Adam has had several impressive race results since then in the triathalon, marathon, and ultra disciplines. Most recently, he ran a 100 mile PR of 16 hours and a marathon PR of 3:08 at the London Marathon. In his professional life, Adam uses his educational background to help others going through similar situations that he went through. This episode is inspiring and was very educational to the world of para athletics. Enjoy!

The Life in Stride podcast isn't just about running; it's a beacon of truth, empathy, and knowledge.

From personal anecdotes to insightful interviews, the podcast fosters a sense of community and camaraderie among listeners. It's the perfect blend of practical advice and heartfelt storytelling, making it a must-listen for runners of all levels.

Favorite Podcast!!

All of the pods have been great! However, this latest with Adam Popp touches on so many important topics and provides insights and tools that can benefit everyone. Great listen and I highly recommend. Thank you OTQ Boyz for investing in yourselves and your listeners.

Go to running Pod - it’s not even close

Boys! You’re crushing this. You’re cool down to Earth dudes. Listening to the pod feels like hanging out with friends. I listen any chance I get, in the car, on a run, when I’m lost in my thoughts, and even when I’m grading papers. Please don’t stop. Also, I love how some of you guys aren’t afraid to share your faith. I remember being on a run and I think it was Scotty or Cheston shared a thought about their faith and I just remember fist pumping mid stride. This show is an inspiration. 🤙
