  • Our Top 10 Tips to Find Success at the Starting Line

    Our Top 10 Tips to Find Success at the Starting Line
    2020/02/24
    Just recently we passed Valentine's Day where the phrase "love is in the air" was all around us. Since then I've noted another phrase - "race season is in the air" now that our eyes are focused on the hopeful early Spring promised to us by Punxsutawney Phil on Groundhog Day and our stubbornness as runners as we yearn for warmer weather and put an end to the winters that have entrapped us the last few months. Plus, many of us have already registered for our Spring races and know that our training really needs to kick in with warmer weather and less snowy days around us. With all that - we are here to help! Audrey and I take a moment to give you our Top 10 list. Similar to the David Letterman "Top 10" lists (please tell me you remember him - Audrey didn't making me feel so old) except for the fact that we didn't count down to number one and our list had one tip with a "Part B" that you won't want to miss. What did I say on air again?! 😮 Don't worry - it was nothing to trigger the "explicit meter" - just something we runners have to talk about. Instead of just giving you all the tips (that wouldn't be fair - you want to hear them in their context right?) let me share a hint on each one in the following list: Tip #1: Is there something you need to do minutes before the starting gun fires off? Tip #2: What is one tip we can learn from the elites to make our starting line experience so much better? Tip #3: Is there something I can do at the starting line to prevent injury during the race? Tip #4: How can I prevent the suffering I experience at the starting line, even on those hot days? Tip #5: How can I prevent those "Oops" moments at the starting line and during my race? Tip #6: How can I prevent extra stress at the starting line? We already covered a better way to handle the stress a couple tips before - but this tip is to help minimize that stress. Tip #7: Is there anything I should do to prevent extra stress the first few miles of my race? Tip #8: DO THIS even if you don't want to (especially for those longer races) Tip #9: Is there something I can specifically do in my training runs to prepare me for my race? Tip #9b: Is there something I can do the morning of my race - and on the starting line - to prevent those unwanted urges? Tip #10: There's one thing that seems counter-intuitive as you prepare for your race. Make sure you take care of this tip to prevent issues during your race. We are super excited to announce the FREE Pizza PI Race from our sponsor Great 8 Virtual Races! This 3.14 mile race will be held on 3.14 (March 14th)! Come on over to sign up for their free race and find out how you can get a fun t-shirt for cheap. We love their motto of the race to "Burn It - Then Eat It"! Who doesn't love pizza?!

  • On The Run With Chris: My Inspiration, Becoming a Pacer, and a Special Running Stroller

    On The Run With Chris: My Inspiration, Becoming a Pacer, and a Special Running Stroller
    2020/01/27
    This week we are excited to talk to someone that has special meaning to Alex (me). If you recall, I started my fitness and weight loss journey with a major change in my diet and the addition of running just over five years ago. Today our guest was one of those people that were so instrumental to my journey - being someone that was willing to give support, an encouraging word, and help answer my questions from the very start. And I wanted to thank him on our show and hear more about his own running journey. There is so much in our running that teaches us and instructs us in life. I share how my past week reminded me so much of a bad training run. I pushed through, grew through the struggle, and am wiser because of it. If you've had a bad training run (who hasn't) you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. We continue our new interview format with "On The Run With..." where we sit back and take some time with each person we talk to, as if we were just out for a fun run with them. These episodes are a little longer depending on how much time our guest is willing to share with us. Some podcasts only feature what the rest of the world calls "experts". Our podcast, will at times feature those same individuals, but we want to feature an "expert" in a different light. Each runner we encounter is an expert in their own light. Here are just a few of the great things you'll get out of Chris' interview! Chris shares his own start to his running and the person that inspired him to start running. Here's what's cool - many of us have that same type of person in our life. My question to you is how can you be that person for someone else? Chris shares about all the types of races he has run - from marathons, to triathlons (can you say Ironman?!), and 50Ks.We hear about what we all experience - when you start running you won't have it all figured out. We talk about all the different resources we have as runners. And don't forget having one another in person as well!Chris has done a lot helping new runners at his workplace. He shares some of the programs.You won't want to miss out on his Facebook group Run 2B Strong. He shares that part of his motivation in starting this group is building a strong mind as running requires mental toughness. Come find out how to be a more mentally (and physically) stronger runner.Alex shares the David Goggins book, Can’t Hurt Me: Master Your Mind and Defy the Odds, where he shares how he mentally ran a 100-mile race on only three miles of training in six months (not recommended) as he prepared for a charitable race. We shared this book not to encourage you to do the same but to show how the mind really can limit what we are capable of (again, mental toughness).Chris shares about a 50-mile race that he attempted and DNFed (Did Not Finish). He shares many of his lessons learned. Hint: time on your feet is important for training.Chris shares how he became a pacer and why he did so.Chris shares a very special situation where he gets to run with his daughter. She is autistic and non-verbal. What's great is she loves the thrill of moving and especially when she gets to run with daddy. Chris recently purchased a special-needs stroller and has been able to enjoy a number of races with her (their first Mount Nebo half marathon - pictured). You will really want to hear about how that race went! Don't miss Chris' Facebook group Running With Lily where he shares pictures of their latest races and more!And much, much more! Next, we are so excited for our new website - motivatemetorun.com! This site will allow us to post additional information that we want to share (like our Run With Us page where we share our future races hoping we can meet you there) and give us a bit better place to reach out to you. We would love to have you come over and click on Don't Miss an Episode (or just click here) where you can start being notified each time we drop and episode and additionally get that extra information from us (like race coupon codes and more!) to give you that extra bit of motivation. Finally, we check in with Chris on our final three questions that we ask each of our guests on our show: What has been your favorite race?What is your favorite running tip?What and when is your next race? We really encourage you to check out our sponsor, Audible. Even though January isn't yet over, I'm listening to my fourth audiobook (love them on my runs and my commute) and my third running audiobook at that! Find out how you can get one book for free (with two Amazon Originals) just by signing up for their free trial. Plus, if you sign up now, you still have enough time to complete their Audible Challenge 2020 (or new members and current subscribers alike) where just for listening to three books of three hours or longer you can receive a $20 Amazon gift card. I just received notice that I have earned mine! 😆 Thank you again for joining us "on the run" and loving every moment of this episode!...

  • On The Run With Cassie: How She Struggled Through Her Last 10K

    On The Run With Cassie: How She Struggled Through Her Last 10K
    2020/01/20
    We had a fun time recording our first interview this week! Sure, we had a technical issue (Alex's mic was off) but we made the most of it. Isn't that what you do when you have a run or race that doesn't go your way? You get over it, you keep pushing on, and finish, no matter what it takes (excepting injury - but thankfully I wasn't injured 🤣). Our new interview format is "On The Run With..." where we sit back and take some time with each person we talk to, as if we were just out for a fun run with them. These episodes are a little longer depending on how much time our guest is willing to share with us. Some podcasts only feature what the rest of the world calls "experts". Our podcast, will at times feature those same individuals, but we want to feature an "expert" in a different light. Each runner we encounter is an expert in their own light. For example, Cassie shares with us some incredible motivational tips for all of us through her experiences and struggles she has had through her years of running. We start off with me thanking Audrey for her encouragement this week. I (Alex) am usually bound up in my home and stuck on my treadmill throughout the winter as my fear of slipping and injuring myself outweighed my love of being outside. If that describes you, then no worries as I know the struggle is real! But for a few different reasons, I wanted to change it up this year and set the goal to run outside no matter the temperature - as long as the roads were dry. Feel free to leave a comment on our site telling me I'm a wimp; I'm ok with that. 😁 But this week with two snowstorms, Audrey encouraged me to come along and enjoy the snow - and I did. It was such a blast to get out and the conditions were perfect! She really helped motivate me to step a bit outside of my comfort zone. I did and I loved it! Next, we are so excited for our new website - motivatemetorun.com! This site will allow us to post additional information that we want to share (like our Run With Us page where we share our future races hoping we can meet you there) and give us a bit better place to reach out to you. We would love to have you come over and click on Don't Miss an Episode (or just click here) where you can start being notified each time we drop and episode and additionally get that extra information from us (like race coupon codes and more!) to give you that extra bit of motivation. I won't break down the whole interview with Cassie here, but we really encourage you to listen in on the discussion! She shares so much about how she struggles with her hypothyroidism (low thyroid) as it makes everything she does physically so much more difficult - not to mention how much more difficult losing weight is for her. She digs into how other health issues prevents her from training like she wantsWe work through the differing personalities of runners and showing how runners who don't always "check each and every box in their training plan" (she asks, "What checkboxes?!" 😉) can have just as much fun as their Type A friends.Although she may struggle with her training she shares how she still makes racing (the 10K is one of her favorite distances) a part of her lifeShe shares a tip on what keeps her going. For just a hint, she mentions that it's something I've shared on this podcast before.Cassie shares that she has a complicated relationship with running. But that conflicted motivation keeps her going and she doesn't give up. Ever.We break down Cassie's approach in races, especially when her training has been less than what she expects would be sufficient for a race. Huge note here, for these races although she doesn't feel like she should be on the starting line, she is, still has a blast, and enjoys the experience!Cassie really gets into the idea on the differing types of people you'll find at your next race. Getting to the starting line can be difficult with us sometimes thinking that "we don't fit in". But we all do - all of us are there with the goals of enjoying that race and making the most of it, no matter our specific goals. And yes, walkers, run/walkers, even to the speediest all can run on the same course and have fun at the same time!Cassie shares that speed walking is something she is really excited to try. She speed walks faster than some people run and can definitely distance herself when she speed walks her with husband.Hear her huge announcement on the Dopey Challenge (a race held each year at Walt Disney World Resort where you run a 5K on Thursday, a 10K on Friday, a half marathon on Saturday, and marathon on Sunday) and her current thoughts on how she would break it down and work for her.What does she listen to when running? And why?And much, much more! Finally, we check in with her on our final three questions that we'll ask to each of our guests on our show: What has been your favorite race?What is your favorite running tip?What and when is your next race? ...
