    EP 751: “It IS Your Day” with The Queen, Meghan Canfield

    Have you ever heard a runner drop out of a race and say, “It just wasn’t my day”? Well, Meghan Canfield—known to the trail world as The Queen—has something to say about that. She argues, “Of course it’s your day! It’s certainly not anyone else’s.” In this episode, Meghan joins us to explore what that really means. Inspired by her recent article in UltraRunning Magazine titled “Adventure of Life,” Meghan shares how every long run, race, or adventure mirrors the journey of life itself. Things rarely go exactly as planned—both on the trail and off it—but those unexpected detours aren’t signs to quit. They’re opportunities to adapt, learn, and keep moving forward. Meghan shows us how to: Reframe setbacks as chances for growth Trade frustration for curiosity when things go sideways. See each run—and each day—as an adventure full of surprises, struggles, and joy. She also opens up about the lessons she’s learned from her own mistakes and offers practical tips to help you push through those tough miles—on the trail and in life. Every day brings a new story. Meghan Canfield is here to remind us to run it with purpose, curiosity, and heart.  Find out more about Meghan and hire her or some of her friends as a coach at Zenith Coaches.

    EP 749: The Pendulum of Running-Lessons from 19 Episodes with Dr. Mark Cucuzzella

    Dr. Mark Cucuzzella returns for his 19th visit (first joined us in 2012) to unpack the “pendulum swings” in running— from minimalist to maximal shoes, handhelds to hydration vests, and data-free runs to tech-heavy biometrics. He shares how his natural-footwear ethos (and Two Rivers Treads) started before the trend, why different terrains and athletes may benefit from different shoes, and why rotating options can build stronger, more resilient feet. We talk about rucking with a weighted vest as a low-impact way to boost strength, bone density, and aerobic fitness—especially for masters runners— plus the value of short, fast strides to keep leg speed with age. On fueling, Mark reframes the carbs-vs.-keto debate around individual metabolic health and race-day pragmatism: maintain blood glucose, experiment cautiously, and avoid one-size-fits-all prescriptions. Big takeaway: be an experiment of one—choose the tools, shoes, and fueling that keep you healthy, happy, and on the trails for life.
