Ep 27. Runners need more Repetition without Repetition! Shawn Myszka
February 12, 2023 10:07 - 48 minutes - 44.5 MBToday, on the Run Culture Podcast I was incredibly fortunate to chat to Shawn Myszka.

August 02, 2022 03:40 - 1 hour - 68.8 MBThis is a great discussion for any runner keen to find out more about the US College system.

Ep 8. Mastering Negative Thoughts with Brent Lalor
February 14, 2022 07:24 - 44 minutes - 41.4 MBPhysical prowess is so easy to conceptualize, it's visible. Someone can be; fast, strong, coordinated etc.. Psychological resilience on the other hand is harder to see and for this reason it is often under appreciated. Getting your 'head' right is the first step to rehab/performance success. So, when I see a patient or runner who has a 'highly tuned' mental game, I get excited about working with them. Reality is, shit happens! Throwing a tantrum isn’t going to change anything. So, if y...

Ep 3: Running IQ with Caden Shields
December 05, 2021 05:49 - 1 hour - 59.3 MBWhat is ‘Running IQ’? ‘Running IQ’ is a new term that I have coined to reflect the rationality and accuracy of one’s decision making ability in relation to the sport of running. Not enough has, ‘been said or done’ about the all too common; naïve, emotionally thwarted or flawed ‘Decision-making process’ amongst runners. A runner with a high running IQ is dialled in to their own, individual running needs. They more often than not make; true, factual, real and helpful training and racing de...
