In this episode, we kick off a series of interviews with *regular* women who will bring you maximum inspiration for running and life. First up is episodes 2 and 39 guest, Allison Macsas. Allison is a 3-time Olympic Trials Marathon qualifier and leader of Rogue Expeditions. She is fast, smart, creative, and oh so inspiring. I think you will love getting to know her a little better. Ruth England and Jennifer Howard-Brown (episode 179 guests) will lead this podcast series while I take a short break away from my hosting duties to recharge personally and spend time with family. Everything is good here... just taking a little break so that I can come back strong and fresh in 2021.

In this week's episode, Brodie Sharpe, physiotherapist and host of the Run Smarter podcast joins me for a new edition of the true-false episodes. This time we discuss running injuries in an attempt to debunk many of the myths associated with avoiding, getting, and recovering from injury. Topics include when pain is or is not your friend, whether or not running is bad for your knees, and whether or not stretching helps prevent injuries. In many cases, the answers will surprise you in this fun debate between coach and physio. Enjoy!

With the proliferation of new wearable technology (including the Oura ring and Whoop band), you may have heard the term - heart rate variability - as a new way to track your recovery and readiness on any given day. It seems simple on the surface, but it's a little more complicated in application than you might think. In this episode, Jason and I break it all down in an attempt to explain heart rate variability including what it is, how to track it, and most importantly, how to apply it in your training.

In this episode, Jason Brooks joins me for the 2nd part of our two part conversation on stress. In episode 202, we discussed total stress loan and the concept of stress inventory in order to set your stress baseline objectively. Now in episode 204, we discuss putting that concept into action with the stress management audit to help you manage, minimize or eliminate unproductive stress in your life that might be affecting your training. In addition for those interested in our Virtual One to One training, you can get more info here: https://www.roguerunning.com/virtual-11 Or contact Jason here: jason@roguerunning.com.

In this episode, I break down all of the action in the London Marathon from Kipchoge's big defeat to Sara Hall's kick finish for 2nd and everything in between. There is so much inspiration to go around with this race, and I may have just scratched the surface in discussing it. If you are looking for hope for your running these days, then I think this episode might just be for you.

If you are a listener with a question, be careful what you ask because you might just end up on the show! In this week's episode, I talk to listener Sherri from Florida who emailed last week with several questions about managing an injury while trying to continue training. I address some of her questions in episode 190, but this conversation brings in the practical side featuring Sherri's story. We get a little background on her, discuss her questions on managing and coming back from injury, and then talk a little bit about her next steps to smash her goals. Thank you so much to Sherri for having the courage to share her story with the world. I believe her story will help anyone who might be facing injury challenges.
