Ep 54 - Jason Fitzgerald - Run For Your Life

Jason is a running coach, podcast host, and author. He hosts a very popular podcast - The Strength Running Podcast - and also has coaching programs that are designed to truly help runners achieve maximum results. 

Jason really wants to help runners prevent the mistakes he has made in the past. After finishing the 2008 New York Marathon in 2 hours and 44 minutes, he developed a severe ITB injury and was sidelined for six months. That injury transformed his thoughts on what it means to be running healthy, and the power of working to prevent injury to the body.

This led Jason to gain a whole new perspective and running philosophy - he's only had one injury since 2009. 

Jason and I discussed ultramarathons and their mental versus physical aspects of them. We also chatted about marathons, how to run effectively based on your level, the best surfaces to run on, some great beginner tips, and much more. To runners and non-runners (or yet-to-be runners) alike - I hope you enjoy this podcast!

My Take: Not everyone loves running, however, if you keep at it you can really achieve progress - both mentally and physically. I am working on becoming a better runner myself, and though I usually run on pavement, my preference is trail running. It's a more complete experience for me. If you want to improve your endurance or technique - listen to the podcast, as Jason gives great tips.
