Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Sarah Carter - Radical Self Belief
Q: What were some pivotal moments in high school and college that shaped your mindset and goals?
A span of setbacks and breakthroughs—from not making the state roster to winning a state title, then a brutal college transition with injuries and an eventual breakthrough fifth-year performance that exceeded expectations.
Sarah Carter - Radical Self Belief
Q: Where did athletics first enter your life, and what sparked your path into running?
She recalls competitive beginnings in swimming and soccer, then discovering running through community road races and junior circuits, leading to a real love for the sport once she saw running as a raw, individual challenge.
Sydney Petersen - A Strong Sense of Belonging
Q: What role did mentorship play in your trail running journey?
Stevie Kramer was a constant sounding board, guiding me through conversations about sponsorships and races from a young age, which helped me navigate the transition into trail running and professional opportunities.
Sydney Petersen - A Strong Sense of Belonging
Q: How did your college experience shape your approach to running after college?
It taught me consistency and the importance of training base. I learned not to let comparisons derail my own process and to value steady progress over quick breakthroughs.
Teamwork Makes the Dream Work
Q: What changed in training after joining Rick, and how did that affect race performance?
Athletes report moving from high-mileage, generic routines to more targeted, varied stimulus with increased speed work and race-specific plans. The new approach reduced injuries, improved confidence, and allowed them to race closer to their strengths, often with faster personal bests and better long-term consistency.
