You Don't Need a Bib to Be a Runner | EP 800

You Don't Need a Bib to Be a Runner | EP 800

Sep 24, 2026 56:10

For much of her career, Ellie Greenwood measured herself against the best runners in the world, but her relationship with running has evolved toward something less measurable and, in some ways, more meaningful. She talks with Don and Scott about why racing can gradually shift from exciting to stressful, and why stepping away from competition doesn't mean stepping away from being a serious runner. The conversation explores how personal projects, peak bagging, FKTs, mileage or vertical challenges, and even running every street in your hometown can provide the same motivation that once came from a race on the calendar. Ellie also tackles an important question for aging athletes: what happens when working harder no longer produces the performances it once did, and can changing the goal help preserve our love of running? Along the way, they share adventure ideas ranging from Rim-to-Rim-to-Rim and running a favorite race course unofficially to travel running and some wonderfully ridiculous challenges involving ironing boards and whole chickens. Ultimately, Ellie makes the case that a bib is only one way to create purpose, and the best running goal may simply be the one that keeps you curious, moving, and excited about what's around the next corner.

Timestamps 01:05 | From Racing to Adventure Ellie explains how one of the sport's most accomplished competitors began finding fulfillment in running experiences that have nothing to do with racing. 07:15 | Does Adventure Need Competition? The group considers how personal challenges can provide difficulty and purpose without turning every run into another contest. 11:00 | Training Without a Race on the Calendar Ellie shares how she coaches runners toward adventure, fitness, skills, and personal goals even when there's no finish line waiting for them. 22:40 | Are You Still a Trail Runner Without a Bib? Scott raises the identity question at the heart of the episode, and Ellie explains why racing should never define who gets to call themselves a trail runner. 27:29 | How Long Are Our Best Running Years? A discussion of the "Sawchuk Seven" leads to aging, longevity, smart training, burnout, and what happens when improvement becomes harder to find. 37:03 | Adventure Ideas You Can Actually Try From running every street in your town to exploring unfamiliar trails, Ellie, Don, and Scott start building a menu of adventures that don't require an entry fee. 42:34 | Rim-to-Rim, Foil Buckles and Running the World The conversation expands into Grand Canyon crossings, unofficial Western States adventures, delightfully strange challenges, and using running as a way to experience new places.

The Secret Every Happy Trail Runner Knows | EP 799

The Secret Every Happy Trail Runner Knows | EP 799

Sep 18, 2026 1:12:13

Matt Lambert has become one of the quiet legends of the Auburn trail community, not because of race results, but because of the joy, generosity, and gratitude he brings to every run. Although he's a seven-time Western States finisher, Matt rarely talks about racing. Instead, he shares how growing up on the Western States Trail taught him that running is about adventure, friendship, and discovering the "pharmacy in your head," where movement naturally brings peace, perspective, and emotional healing. The conversation explores how our relationship with the trail evolves over time, why Matt intentionally stepped away from racing before it stopped bringing him joy, and how balancing running with other activities has allowed him to stay healthy for decades. Along the way, Don, Scott, and Matt reflect on why trail running creates deeper friendships than almost any other activity and how time on the trail often provides clarity that's difficult to find anywhere else. It's an inspiring reminder that the greatest reward isn't another buckle. It's becoming the kind of person who still can't wait to head into the woods after forty years.

Timestamps 00:00 | Why Matt Lambert Inspires So Many Runners Scott introduces "Lamb Chops," whose love for the trail has made him one of Auburn's most beloved ambassadors despite rarely talking about his impressive race resume. 09:30 | Adventure, Friendship, and Growing Up on the Trails Matt shares how exploring the Auburn canyons as a kid and meeting influential mentors shaped his lifelong love of trail running. 20:40 | The "Pharmacy in Your Head" Matt explains why running became his healthiest source of joy and why nature has always been his most powerful medicine. 30:00 | The Trail as a Place of Healing The conversation turns to mental health, finding perspective, and why a run has always been Matt's path back from life's hardest moments. 41:15 | Why Longevity Beats Mileage Drawing from decades as chiropractors, Matt and Don discuss avoiding overtraining, embracing cross training, and staying healthy enough to enjoy the trails for life. 50:00 | Knowing When to Let Racing Go Matt reflects on finishing Western States seven times, recognizing when the suffering outweighed the joy, and redefining his relationship with running. 1:03:00 | What Really Matters After Decades on the Trail Scott shares how Matt influenced his own evolution as a runner, leading to a heartfelt conversation about purpose, perspective, and loving the trail long after racing fades.

You're Probably Carrying Water the Wrong Way | EP 798

You're Probably Carrying Water the Wrong Way | EP 798

Sep 11, 2026 1:11:08

Hydration can make or break a long run, but there isn't a universal formula that works for everyone. Kramer Ammons shares how he tests everything from sweat rate and hydration timing to where runners carry their water, explaining why the most efficient solution isn't always the most obvious. The conversation explores handheld bottles, hydration belts, vests, bladders, and why convenience often matters just as much as laboratory efficiency. Don and Scott add decades of racing experience, emphasizing that successful runners solve problems early instead of waiting until dehydration, stomach issues, or fatigue force them to slow down. The discussion also covers pre-hydration, electrolytes, carb drinks, aid station strategy, and how listening to your body is often more valuable than blindly following generic hydration guidelines. The biggest takeaway is that great hydration isn't about copying someone else's plan. It's about experimenting until you discover what consistently works for you.

Timestamps 00:00 | Why Hydration Is So Complicated Hydration seems simple until heat, sweat rate, pace, nutrition, and aid stations all start influencing the equation. 04:30 | The Best Way to Carry Water Kramer explains the research behind handheld bottles, hydration belts, vests, and why carrying weight near your center of mass can improve efficiency. 12:30 | Find Your Personal Sweat Rate Learn a simple sweat rate test and why copying someone else's hydration plan rarely works. 18:00 | Pre-Hydration Before You Start The conversation covers electrolytes, hydration loading, coffee, and preparing before the first mile instead of trying to catch up later. 24:30 | Choosing the Right Hydration System The pros and cons of handheld bottles, running belts, front flasks, hydration bladders, and when each option makes the most sense. 45:30 | Water, Electrolytes, and Carbs The hosts discuss balancing plain water with sports drinks, avoiding stomach issues, and fueling longer races more effectively. 49:00 | The Best Runners Solve Problems Early One of the episode's biggest lessons: recognize small problems before they become race-ending mistakes, and leave a little in reserve so you can finish strong.

Aging As An Athlete - The Best Miles Aren’t Always the Fastest | EP 797

Aging As An Athlete - The Best Miles Aren’t Always the Fastest | EP 797

Sep 4, 2026 1:14:15

Krissy Moehl, Kathleen Egan, and Jenny Jurek, affectionately known as the Mullet Train, share the story behind their goal of completing 1,000 trail miles together, including the Arizona Trail, High Lonesome 100, and Crazy Mountain 100. What started as an annual fastpacking adventure evolved into something much bigger: an intentional way to preserve friendship, challenge themselves, and keep adventure central as they get older. They talk candidly about learning each other's rhythms, figuring out how far their particular “train” can realistically travel each day, and discovering that a successful adventure doesn't always mean sticking stubbornly to the original plan. The conversation also gets wonderfully practical, covering ultralight gear, water, food, trail magic, trail names, cowboy camping, and the different “superpowers” each woman brings to the group. One of the most interesting shifts comes from Krissy, who spent decades racing at the highest level but now finds herself wanting to stop, take her shoes off at lunch, and actually absorb the places she once would have raced through. Underneath it all is a compelling message for aging athletes: don't wait for adventure to happen, put it on the calendar, find people who make you want to show up, and go collect some stories while your body still lets you.

Timestamps 00:24 – The 1,000-Mile Idea Krissy, Kathleen, and Jenny introduce their goal of covering 1,000 trail miles together and explain how an annual adventure gradually became something much bigger. 05:35 – Why They Needed This Adventure Jenny explains how life, motherhood, and time away from ultrarunning left her craving an adventure, and a proposed section hike eventually grew into tackling the Arizona Trail. 14:28 – Why This, Why Now? The women discuss why these adventures feel particularly meaningful at this stage of their lives and why intentionally carving out time together matters. 20:19 – Welcome Aboard the Mullet Train Jenny explains the wonderfully ridiculous origin of their team name, while the women identify the different “superpowers” each brings to the trail. 28:45 – It Took 400 Miles to Become a Team Kathleen explains how ambitious mileage goals gradually gave way to understanding their natural pace and how hundreds of miles together taught them to read and support one another. 35:00 – From Racing Through It to Taking It In Krissy reflects on one of her biggest changes as an athlete: after years of elite racing, she no longer wants to rush through beautiful places and would rather stop, soak her shirt in the creek, and enjoy where she is. 46:20 – Rattlesnakes, Cowgirl Camping and the Best Stories The women share moments when things didn't go according to plan, including a close encounter with a rattlesnake and an uncomfortable night of cowboy camping that unexpectedly became one of their favorite memories. 50:43 – Why Adventure Matters in Your 50s Jenny talks about the freedom of stepping away from work and family responsibilities and being completely responsible for herself in the mountains, while the group reflects on why these trips mean so much now. 54:08 – Sometimes the Hardest Part Is Showing Up Jenny compares their adventures to running a 100-miler: scheduling, planning, and getting everyone to the start can be harder than the adventure itself. Once they finally see each other at the airport, they know making the time was worth it. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Three Elite Coaches. Six Impossible Decisions | EP 796

Three Elite Coaches. Six Impossible Decisions | EP 796

Aug 28, 2026 1:11:11

Coaching advice almost always starts with, “It depends.” In this special Ask the Coaches episode, Don and Scott take away that safety net by forcing Ian Sharman, Hal Koerner, and Ellie Greenwood to make definitive choices on some of trail running’s biggest debates. Is it better to be undertrained or overtrained? Should you trust data or your instincts? Would you add mileage or strength training? Can motivation be taught? Along the way, the coaches reveal not only their philosophies, but also the surprising amount of agreement behind them. Beneath the conversation emerges a consistent message: sustainable training, learning to listen to your body, and developing good judgment matter far more than chasing perfect numbers. It’s entertaining, occasionally chaotic, and full of coaching wisdom every trail runner can apply.

The coaches debate consistency, intensity, and long-term improvement. 21:00 | Undertrained or Overtrained? The panel discusses why arriving healthy, rested, and mentally excited may be more valuable than squeezing in one more week of training. 29:00 | Mileage or Strength Training? With limited training time, the coaches debate whether extra running or extra strength work produces the biggest return. 44:00 | Trust the Data or Trust Yourself? Heart rate, recovery scores, wearables, and intuition collide as the coaches explain why learning effort by feel remains one of the most valuable skills in ultrarunning. 56:00 | What Should You Do When You Want to Quit? The coaches tackle one of the hardest race-day scenarios: stop, regroup, and reassess, or keep moving forward no matter how slowly. 1:11:00 | Final Thoughts (and One Last “It Depends”) The episode wraps with laughs, reflections, and one final reminder that while coaching often depends on context, the principles of smart, sustainable training remain remarkably consistent.
