    Don’t Get Left in the Dark: What Many of us Get Wrong About Running in Dark and Cold Winter Weather
    Nov 27 2024

    Winter is coming, and that means you may be doing the majority of your training in the dark and cold depending on where you live. You don’t have to let sunlight limit your training though!

    This episode is about how to get the most out of winter training; from a safety perspective and performance perspective.

    This includes answering questions such as:

    • How your body reacts differently to running in the dark and cold
    • How to dress on your runs for better visibility and warmth
    • How to train safely before sunrise or after sunset
    • How to structure winter training while working towards a goal Spring race
    • When to throw in the towel and move your training inside

    There’s a time and place for training inside or skipping your run but we know it’s way more fun to keep your training going. Make sure you’re doing this safely and tune-in to find out how.

    Manukora Honey

    Are you looking for a delicious way to spice up your pre-run snacks and make them healthier?

    Then you need to try Manukora honey.

    Not only is it hands-down the best honey I’ve ever tasted, Manukora Honey contains powerful nutrients to support immunity and gut health.

    The bees collect the nectar from the Manuka tea tree in New Zealand. The nectar is packed with bioactives and the honey that is produced has 3 times more antioxidants and prebiotics than your average honey.

    A special antibacterial compound called MGO also comes from the nectar of the tea tree.

    Manukora third party tests every single harvest for MGO and makes these results available through their QR system.

    It’s a game changer, and all you need is 1 heaped teaspoon each morning to get the most out of the amazing bioactives in Manuka.

    I love it in the morning before my runs and I’ve found myself craving it as I wake up.

    Now, it’s easier than ever to try Manukora Honey. Head to manukora.com/RTTT to get $25 off the Starter Kit, which comes with an MGO 850+ Manuka Honey jar, 5 honey travel sticks, a wooden spoon, and a guidebook!

This week’s show brought to you by: Mushroom Breakthrough One of the most difficult things about training hard in the morning is the brain fog and mental fatigue that comes when you’re trying to get your work day going. I am sure all you morning runners can relate to that feeling of not being able to focus and get motivated those first few hours at work. That’s why I was excited when BIOptimizers released its one-of-a-kind product called Mushroom Breakthrough It’s a powdered blend of 5 potent superfoods including 1.2 pounds of concentrated mushrooms, which have been shown in research to enhance memory, focus, processing speed, and more. It’s the perfect way to not only boost recovery post-run, but improve mental clarity in the morning without taxing your adrenal system with caffeine.

  • How Soon is too Soon to Start Running Again After a Marathon

    How Soon is too Soon to Start Running Again After a Marathon
    Nov 13 2024

    This is the time of year when most marathon runners are finishing their goal races for the fall season. Once the excitement of this incredible accomplishment fades though, you might be left wondering when you should start running again.

    There’s no simple answer here but ensuring that you give yourself enough time to recover both mentally and physically will help with preventing burnout or injury in the next training cycle.

    The amount of recovery you need will depend on a lot of factors that will be addressed with topics such as:

    • What actually happens to your body when you race a marathon?
    • How long does the “damage” from running a marathon last?
    • How do you know when your body might be ready to start running again?
    • What is the difference in the amount of time needed before you are ready for easy running compared to tougher structured workouts?
    • Is it ever okay to run the day after you complete a marathon?

    Coach Hayley has guided many runners through this process and helps us with answering the tough question of how soon is too soon to start running again after a marathon.
