    #304 - Pre-Run Morning Routines, 405lb Bench or 2:25 Marathon More Impressive?, Listener Emails

    Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us! On this episode, we had a fun banter episode talking about several random topics as we normally do! We started off with our pre-run routines in the morning. It was surprising to hear Scotty doesn't hydrate at all before runs lol. We also chatted if certain weightlifting achievements were more impressive than running achievements (we have no weightlifting experience so ChatGBT helped), sports during COVID - particularly the 2020 London Marathon, and read a couple funny listener emails.

    #303 - Shanghai Diamond League Was INSANE + NCAA Conference Weekend Highlights

    Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us! On this episode, I recapped a fun weekend of racing! I started off the episode doing a quick update on my own training and then we quickly dove into the Shanghai Diamond League.  There were some epic results on the distance side of things in China! The men’s 3k was the deepest 3k all time, with 14 runners under 7:30! Faith Kipyegon was back in action winning the 5k and we also saw a very fast women’s 1500 with some American success! I also chatted about some highlights from NCAA Conference Meet weekend + Prefontaine Classic released some of their pro fields over the weekend so that was fun to preview a bit! Enjoy!

    #302 Sam Griffiths - Running Back to Back Marathon PBs at London & Copenhagen

    Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us! On this episode, we had very special guest Sam Griffiths back on the podcast! If you remember, not long ago we had Sam on for the first time to chat about his journey into running. He struggled with health and weight before starting to run and has become a very competitive runner in just a few years time! On that last episode, Sam was hoping for a big PR at London Marathon and did just that. Sam ran 2:23 at London, continuing his marathon PB streak (he has PR'd in every marathon he has done so far!). After the race, he felt like he still had some life in his legs and decided to take another shot at a sub-2:20 at Copenhagen Marathon just a couple weeks later! While he did not break 2:20 - he still ran another PB with a stellar 2:22 at Copenhagen! This pod has so many fun stories from both races and amazing training and racing advice- enjoy!

    #298 Aaron Bienenfeld - Running 2:08 at Hamburg Marathon for the Fastest German Debut Ever

    Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us! On this episode, we had special guest Aaron Bienenfeld back on the podcast after his epic run at the Hamburg Marathon! Not only did he have an amazing debut for himself, running 2:08 in a competitive field, he also ran the fastest ever German debut marathon time! We got the full recap from race weekend and also talked training and fueling on this episode. Aaron also talked about how competitive German marathoning is right now. After some amazing performances so far this Spring and last Fall by German athletes - Aaron is not going to get comfortable at all with his 2:08 time. For now though - his objective moves to trying to make the German team at the European outdoor championships in the 10k!

    #297 Michael Ottesen - The Mile 24 Hamstring Cramp That Derailed the Boston Marathon

    Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us! On this episode, the boys had Michael Ottesen on the podcast to recap the Boston Marathon! This was Michael's first World Major Marathon and he was in the elite field! It was interesting to hear about the behind the scenes of the elite field especially from the perspective of someone who has never had an experience like that! Michael had an amazing training block going into Boston - his best ever. Going into halfway he was on about 2:10 marathon pace, got over the Newton Hills well, but at Mile 24 disaster struck. The twinges in his hamstring turned into a massive cramp and forced him to fully stop for about 2 minutes. He was able to struggle to the finish line, just missing the OTQ standard by a few seconds!

    #296 - Olympic Trials Marathon Power Rankings, US 5K Road Champs, Sawe Fueling + Jakob Predictions

    Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us! On this episode, I had my good friend Corbin Harris join me to discuss some current running events! Despite not a super heavy race weekend - there was still a lot of fun topics to discuss! The biggest race of last week was the USA 5k Road Champs which Drew Hunter and Karissa Schweizer won! We also chatted Josh Izewski’s insane 45:08 10 miler and some collegiate results (is Tayvon Kitchen the next Conner Mantz??). We finished off the pod talking about Citius Mag’s Olympic Trials Marathon Power Rankings they put out after Boston. We had some agreement and disagreement with their rankings and it was a really fun topic to discuss for the American running fans out there!
