  • That Time I Crashed Dr. Leo’s Podcast

    I jumped on the Mind Body Marathon podcast with Dr. Leo, my old high school cross country teammate turned running wizard, and it felt like stepping into a time machine powered by protein shakes and dad jokes.

    We covered everything from the glory days of running (when shorts were short and dreams were big) to how I now help women over 40 crush their health goals without sacrificing wine, sanity, or their favorite leggings. I even got to shout out Betsy Finley, a 60-year-old world champ who train... more

  • new favorite running podcast:)

    I feel like there are a lot of podcasts (about running) that hit just science or just story/ interview- this podcast somehow the perfect blend of both.

    I appreciate that each guest and episode has a slightly unique feel to it, but also has a specific point and take away.

  • Dr. Leo is a great resource for runners everywhere

    This podcast is a good listen for anyone trying to gain more awareness to the science behind running and the mysticism that drives our best athletic performances. In life there are people who know what they’re talking about and there are people who pretend to know what they’re talking about, Leo is someone who knows how to talk to runners!

The training is so different compared to 5K or 10K; it's more relaxed and focused on enjoyment rather than strict pace.

Q: How do you prepare to go into a shorter, faster race like this in the context of these heavier, longer, slower training blocks?
I try to keep it simple and remember the feelings from college cross-country races, focusing more on competing rather than overthinking the race.
