The Running Public

Kirk took down a course record this weekend while Brakken chased some nostalgia. They also answer some of your top recent, and not so recent, questions.

Get ready to laugh, cry, cringe, and learn! This is an all time episode with ultra endurance athlete Justin Hamilton, and we’re not going to spoil the story by giving a preview. Enjoy!

We’ve been receiving lots of requests for an episode describing how to approach each obstacle at a Spartan Race, so here it is! Come for the nerdy OCR talk, stay for the Bachelor in Paradise talk!

Danish National Champion. European Champion. Runner-up at World Champs. Ida is a force in any endurance sport she enters, despite not finding running until her early twenties! 

We list the shoes we use/would use/recommend for every type of race: 5k and under, 10k to Half Marathon, and Marathon to Ultra. PLUS we break it down by terrain type: road, smooth trail, technical trail, and sloppy trail. Boom.

Spring time = trails are opening. It also means the trails are at their most vulnerable. Master trail builder Adam Buck drops by to walk us through proper trail etiquette!

The good folks on the message boards over at Letsrun had an interesting question: What is the simplest plan for getting faster? We decided to answer it!

We had a bunch of our Running Public athletes racing over the past two weeks, with many of them seeking meaning after a tough race. It can be tough to analyze your races without help at times, so today we break down our own personal race lessons that we’ve learned over the past two decades!

Kirk raced again and, surprise, he’s still super fit! Today we go in depth on the things this race taught us and how you can be better for it.

The multiple time European OCR champ is in the midst of a comeback from a devastating leg injury. Hear him talk his progression as a runner, his love of training, and his painful journey back to the top!
