Episode 5503 ā David runs across Vermont
Hello my running friends. I hope this episode finds you well, whether you are struggling in the deep, dark, depths of winter up here in the northern hemisphere or the pounding, dry, desiccating, hot rays of the sun down under.
Today we talk to David who has a story to tell about running across one of our New England states recently.
But, before I go any further, I need to share a milestone. I did it! I published the first o f my Apocalypse novels. Itās called After the Apocalypse, a Pandemic Survival Story, Book one: The Old Man.
Iām very excited and proud and somewhat exhausted.
Itās a beautiful 362 physical pages that you can go buy if you like science fiction or like my writing or just want me to feel like a success!
The best place to buy it for me is on my publisherās website www.booklocker.com ā just search for it there or search for my name and youāll find either the physical version or the e-book. I will get to an audio book version at some point, time and capital permitting.
You can also find it anyplace they sell books, like Amazon or Barnes and Noble. If you want to be really supportive you can go leave a review on one o f those sites, or forward the link to your social networks. Tell a friend as they say.
In section one Iām going talk a bit about the peak training cycle Iām in and how am navigating it. In section two Iāll talk a bit about the emotional rollercoaster of the publishing process.
Itās been a busy couple weeks. Iāll try to be brief!
On with the show.

Hello and welcome to Episode 5-502 of the RunRunLive Podcast.
This week weāll repost a recording I did earlier in the week with Adam and his daughter Cassidy. Adam and I go way back to the beginning of the running podcast explosion. He and Eddie Marathon and I ran the Chicago Marathon in 2012, maybe, I dunno, would have to check the pictures.
This is a long recording so Iāll skip the philosophizing for the week.
The topic we kind of talk about is why you should consider getting a coach, (among other topics). But, I do think a good coach is like a good team member, where they fill in strength in areas you may be weaker.
They help you see and avoid the patterns in you self-destructive behavior.
This is where so many āget-betterā behaviors go awry. We think people arenāt doing what they think and say they want to be doing, because they donāt have the knowledge or the information. Thatās seldom the case. The knowledge is freely available. Thereās actually too much information.
There are probably 10 -20 reasons they are not changing or adapting behavior on the list above ālack of knowledgeā ā and those are the things that a coach can help with.
Accountability and structure alone are major needs for me to be successful.
I donāt need coaches, I need parents!
But you see what Iām saying. The coach can help you find what those blockers are and get around them.
Anyhow ā if you need the unique type of coach that Adam is, give him a call, heās in a place in his life, like I am, where helping other people is really fun.
ā¦
Outro:
OK campers you have chit-chatted youāre way through the end of episode 5-502 of the RunRunLive podcast, now you can go back to hiding under the bed like a border collie in a thunderstorm.
Iām back running this week. My weight is on target. My fitness is good.
But of course I had a setback.
I got sick.
So let me tell you my story. I heard you like stories.
I had my race stuff on. I was getting ready to get in the car and head up to Salisbury to race the Hangover Classic 10K and jump in the ocean.
When my phone rang.
And Iām not going to go into the horrifying state of the American health care system but Instead of racing I spent the day hanging around in hospital emergency room with my mom, who it turns out had Covid.
I donāt think I caught Covid, at least the test kit doesnāt think I caught Covid, but I caught something. I should have been doing a big build weekend for my marathon, but instead skipped those workouts.
Iām just now getting back to it, but Iām less than a month out from the target race with a long run right now of 13 miles. So itās going to be another learning experience, although I think I know this lesson by heart, but we can always hope for the āmarathon miracleā.
And thatās it.
Got 2-3 weeks of build left. Letās see what I can do!
And weāll see you out there.

Episode 5-501 ā Prioritization with Milicia
If you think itās time to get serious about your health, and take action for yourself, reach out to Rachel at www.drshuck.com/rrl and have a conversation.
Hello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-501 of the RunRunLive podcast.
In todayās episode we have a great chat with Dr. Milicia who shares her strategies on how to manage a busy life and prioritize effectively.
Milicia is another smart, well-spoken, accomplished person. Iām starting to feel a bit I ntimidated and out of my league with these conversations. But ā thatās my ego talking. My goal in these conversations is to interact and learn and to give you all some chewy thoughts to chew on.
I think we hit the nail on the head with this one.
For the end of the year I have a couple of introspective musings for you. In section one Iāll talk about goals, but not in a way that you are expecting. And in section two Iāll talk about treadmills, again, not in a way youāre expecting.

Episode 5-500 ā Examining the balanced life with Lisa Tong
Hello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-500 of the RunRunLive podcast.
I have been working my way through āfrequently asked questionsā and the next two shows will focus on one that is on the top of most runnersā lists.
How do we achieve that ever-elusive balance between our work, our families and our athletic pursuits? And how do we do that in a way that serves us?
This week weāll chat with Lisa who will walk us through her own story as a mom, a professional and a triathlete.
I had a blast talking to Lisa. Sheās very smart and polished and thoughtful.
In section one Iāll talk about road racing and in section two Iāll delve further into the mind space of the artist.

Hello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-499 of the RunRunLive podcast.
This week we talk with Anna who has written a book about exercise routines for people over 60. I got her query email and thought, āyeah, thatās interestingā.
So here we are.
In section one Iāll talk about how we can adapt our training and racing goals to this inevitable onslaught of time.
In section two Iāll talk about being a creative and what I have gleaned from my recent survey of a bunch of āhow toā books about creativity.

Episode 5-498 ā Dr. Shuck - How I got to 165 lbs.
If you think itās time to get serious about your health, and take action for yourself, reach out to Rachel at www.drshuck.com/rrl and have a conversation.
Hello my running friends.
Welcome to episode 5-498 of the RunRunLive podcast.
How are you all doing? Another wonderful week, yeah?
Youāll be delighted to know that I survived my birthday. And, yes this is an interesting phase of life Iāve entered into.
Last episode we talked about memento mori ā or remembering that death is always there. This was a big thing in the middle ages because, death was always there. Itās a bit more intellectualized now. Weāre not going to die from stepping on a nail or a intestinal parasite, probably, but death is still there.
A quote that could be attributed to a 100 people, but I chose Jim Morrison, āNo one gets out Aliveā.
So for me, with this birthday, Death may not be in the room with me warming up, but he may be sleeping on a futon next door thinking about it!
Paradoxically Iām doing great!
Today we do a summary review of my campaign over the summer to get down to 165 pounds with my nutrition coach Rachel, or as she is now known, āDr. Shuckā. It really makes me wonder why we donāt start teaching nutrition in early education.
There is a basic grab-bag of topics that I wish someone had taught me. Like basic financial planning. And how there are different personality types. And the importance of living in the present.
In section one Iāll talk about the relationship between losing weight and running faster.
In section two Iāll talk about the compound effect.

Hello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-497 of the RunRunLive podcast.
Once more we find ourselves together my friends. How are you navigating the weirdness of these days?
For todayās interview we talk with Dr. Savannah Santiago who is a podiatrist and runner from San Diego doing her residency in Indianna.
First, let me say that this is the most fun Iāve had talking to someone in a long time. She was so positive and engaged ā just glowing with positive karma. And it just makes me happy to know that souls like her exist in the world.
Iāve started, or reverted to, using Zoom to record these interviews. That means we are usually both on camera during the chat ā so I get to see the body language of who Iām talking to. I almost want to start posting the video versions of this because I think it would be fun for you to put a face with a voice.
In section one Iām going to get all geeky runner guy and do a deep dive into tempo training in general and surge runs in particular ā which my running buddies mocked me by calling them āSergeā runs.
In section two Iāll ramble about getting old.
Itās my birthday next week. And I think Iāve been having the same conversation every birthday since I turned 30!

Episode 5-496 ā Coach Nora and some frequently asked questions
Hello my running friends. Welcome to episode 5-496 of the RunRunLive podcast.
Today we have a fun chat with Nora who is a coach and athlete about frequently asked questions. We ran into each other when I was answering running questions on Facebook. As always Noraās contact links will be in the show notes. If you want to take a look at her practice itās at mileaftermile.co.
I am consistently pushing this podcast out every two weeks while I can manage it, because I enjoy doing so. But, Iām not going to focus so much on the fine details for now because I just donāt have the time.
This is the RunRunLive ācompromiseā version, where we donāt edit as tightly and donāt polish as much. But we still have conversations and try to have fun.
In section one I talk about shoes. And if you donāt agree with me, thereās going to be a rumble.

Episode 5-495 ā Maddi and some trail magic
Hello my running friends.
Hello my running friends. Itās only been a couple weeks but it feels like a lifetime.
When we last spoke I was on top of all my training and fitness goals for this cycle.
And then the universe stepped in and rebalanced the karma for me by breaking my collarbone.
Iāll tell you all about that in Section two today.
In section one weāll talk about some more running advice I have been dispensing.
And todayās interview is with Maddi who is a self-described trail bum who just stepped off the Appalachian Trail.

Episode 5-494
Hello my running friends, yes I let this one slide a week, because I needed to align it with the off-week of my other podcast ā the apocalypse podcast ā in which I am entering my 5th season now.
Honestly, I have crowded my calendar so much itās hard to get done all the stuff Iām signed up for.
Today I will talk about one of those top 5 questions from the running forums ā how to stay motivated and get the workouts done.
Iāll talk a bit about how I do goal setting and why.
And Iāll give you an update on my own goals for the summer that, for better or worse, Iām closing in on the deadlines for.
Todayās interview is with the race director for the Mamba 100 in Memphis. That is my goal race for this campaign. I am glad I talked to him because I acquired insights into the course that filled in some blanks for me.
So, sit back, (unless youāre in a chair with no back, because youāll sprawl onto the floor).
Sprawl is an interesting word that come to us through Old English and Danish. It rolls off the tongue nicely doesnāt it? Almost onomatopoeia.
Anyhow ā sit back or sprawl back and letās go on an adventure together.
On with the show.
Interview
ā¦ Thanks so much. Great talking to you. www.mambatrailrunners.com is our website.

Outro
Ok my running friends ā I have to tell you I was quite relieved after my discussion with James. When I talked to him a few weeks ago, I did not yet have any big weks under my belt and the 100K distance was looking a bit daunting.
But, after our talk I realized that the course is runnable and itās well supported so good news all around for what my goal is.
Now I just need to stay healthy for a few more weeks.
What kind of mileage do you need to have for this distance? I think the mileage isnāt as important as you basic strength and time on your feet. So, cumulative fitness is more important than any set mileage goal.
When I ran 50K, my long run was probably 20 miles, but I was coming off a marathon campaign.
When I ran 50 miles, my long run was 36 miles, and that was probably overkill. But it was my first ultra so it was ok.
When I trained for 100miles my longest run was a 10-12 hour overnight run, so probably in the mid-30ās. But, again for these longer distances, itās all about time on your feet and fitness. All these longer distances are grouped together for impact in the training calendar ā so you are getting that time on your feet and running on tired legs effect.
My long run for this cycle is probably going to be 30ish miles, again on tired legs.
Iāve been listening to a lot of audio books. I find itās a great way to get content in parallel with my training and dead time. Itās so convenient now with the library app.
Last week I listened to Ryan Holidayās Discipline is Destiny. Great listen when you training and trying to get stuff done. I would highly recommend it on audiobook. Itās read by the author.
There is a lot of the āsame oldā stoic philosophy stuff, but itās a good reminder and might get you motivated.
So my friends, I pushed this episode to line up with the off week of my other post-apocalyptic podcast After the Apocalypse, soon to be a series of novels, lolā¦
Keep pushing, keep being smart, take time to learn, take time for yourself, sharpen your saw and Iāl see you out there.

Episode 5-493 ā Interview Les is Made
Hello my running friends.
This week I present the last of the repurposed interview that I did originally for my other show āAfter the Apocalypseā.
This is a friendly talk with Led for his Les is Made podcast ā and fittingly he is really interested in talking about running.
I had planned to write an article that dove deeper into some of the frequently asked questions. But, Iām out of day today and I figure something is better than nothing.
I had another satirical piece on how women running together have an entirely different conversation than men talking to each other ā based on my admittedly biased observations.
But, alas there is only so much gas in the tank and I have miles to go before I sleep.
So ā My friends, Iāll give you an update on my training ā drop the interview and slink off stage left in a embarred shuffle.
My training is going great. Within the last 7 days I have completed a nice 12 mile trail run, a 100K bike and capped it off with a 100 mile bike ride with my buddies up to Saco Maine yesterday. Everything went well. We got perfect weather. Nobody crashed. No flat tires.
And we made the trip, with breaks in just about 10 hours.
My second goal of weight loss is going well also. I poked my nose under the 173 pound flap of the tent this week and with my training load increasing it should continue to trend down.
I also finished the last additional chapter for the first novel in my apocalypse series ā so getting very close to the end of the editing process and having a finished manuscript to kick out the door like a grown child who has tarried too long.
Funny story ā I actually brought that final chapter to my new Monday morning writers group for a read this past week as well. I was scared like a little kid having to stand in front of the class. But, they liked it. And gave me some good feedback.
All is not lost.
I grabbed the race director of the Mamba 100 for an interview and Iāll shove that up for the next show. You know me. Why read the race web site when you can just talk to the race director?
I was a little worried about running a 100k in the trails in the dark. But he put my mind at ease. The course is in a very gentle trail system right in a park in the center of Memphis.
Thatās the next adventure!
So ā my friends. This is it for commentary,. I wonāt be back at the end.
Stay in touch. Wish me well. And I will see you out there.

Episode 5-492 ā Publishing Sci-Fi George Allen Miller
Hello my running friends.
This week Iām continuing my streak of double dipping on the interviews from my other podcast and presenting you with George Allen Miller. Heās an author and we have a nice, tight chat about the creative process and some aspects of publishing and our favorite Sci-Fi.
So - if you are one of those double dippers who already listened to my After the Apocalypse podcast you can fast forward through the interview section, but I will also have some unique content of you as well
In section one Iāll continue my Runner FAQ conversation. In section two Iāll do an old-man nutrition rant.

Episode 5-490 ā Fran Tabor
Hello my running friends.
Today weāve got a great show for you. I speak with Fran Tabor, who is one of those brilliantly independent thinkers ā a real renaissance person. We discussed Alien first contact and lots of other stuff. I think youāll enjoy it.
In section one Iām going to talk through some of the responses that I have been giving to the āRunners Loving Runningā Facebook group ā because I decided to take a new tack. Instead of ridiculing the questions for being absurd, I decided to give thoughtful answers.
Itās ātackā by the way. T A C K. Not ātactā. Tack is a sailing term that means the direction you are going. When you change tack in a sailboat, the captain yells āComing aboutā and then the mainsail boom swings around to catch the wind and knocks you overboard ā setting up the meet cute or the humorous plot element in any movie involving sailboats.
I talk about my new audio-book adventure in section two.
Because the interview is of a normal size, and I have room.

Episode 5-490 ā Stoned Genius
Hello my running friends.
Hey! 6 new episodes in a row. But I am cheating by re-tasking interviews I did for my other show. So if you are a listener to my After the Apocalypse feed, this is the same interview and youāve already heard it.
I will stick a quick article into section one with my thoughts on what to drink on run and hydration in general. I follow this annoying Facebook group called ārunners loving runningā that has these really dumb beginner running questions and I though it would be fun to answer some of them.
This a long interview. 1:30. So you have been warned. It is me being interviewed by Rodney the Stoned Genius on his podcast, named, interestingly enough āthe Stoned Geniusā and he was nice enough to share the audio with me.
On with the show.
Section Onehttps://runrunlive.com/what-should-i-drinkFeatured InterviewThatās what I love about podcasting. Any curious soul can find and connect with their tribe.
If like what heās doing you can find more at the Stoned Genius Podcast.

Hello my running friends.
Now, I see youā¦ youāre shaking your head.
5 in a row? What are you doing Chris? I just got around to removing the RunRunLive podcast from my old phone and here you are dropping conten t again? How can we trust you again? Youāve put us through so much.
Yup ā Iām on fire folks. I even baked up some new bumpers. Besides I am using the interviews for both my podcasts so there are economies of scale.

Hello my running friends.
Here we go ā 4 episodes in a row!
I have actually gotten messages from people commenting on their surprise and delight, well surprise anyhow, that I have been able to keep it up.
One of my long-standing tricks is to have an interview. This is also why there are so many interview-based podcasts. Itās a great way to leverage other peopleās knowledge and energy for your own benefit ā I bit like a parasitic worm or a vampire.
Insert rim shot sound effect.
But ā seriously folks ā today we have a chat with Roger Smith. Roger is a scientist and science fiction writer. Iām doing a series of interviews of scientists and science fiction writers.
If you also listen to my apocalypse podcast youāll see some duplication. Iām using the same interviews over there. The difference will be podcast specific content, like the intro and outro, and here, in the RunRunLive podcast Iāll sneak in some short articles about some running topics.

Hello my running friends.
Here we go ā 3 episodes in a row!
On todayās show weāve got the recording of when I was on Adam Tinkoffās show a few weeks ago.
This is a long interviewā¦well, not really an interview, more of a conversation. Itās too long for me to edit out the slow bits, like when Adam is trying to get his AI to work. Youāll just have to muddle through.
But we do have some good conversations about community and we do reconnect with some old friends from the running community and we do some reminiscing.
Since this is so long I wonāt stick anything else in here, but Iāll come back at the end with an update.
