Hello Runners, How are you? It's already March, and it's entirely possible you may have already run a race this year, or are training for a spring race, or maybe you are a new runner and now seeing results or just running for enjoyment. No matter, I hope you are injury-free and feeling great! So, I've not published an episode in over a month. February was tough, I caught a bad case of the flu, or maybe it was Covid. I was in bed for a week with no energy, chills, sweating, and feeling miserable and got behind in just about everything. I was also signed up to run thehttps://www.runrocknroll.com/las-vegas ( Vegas Rock n' Roll Half-Marathon )which I had to bail. Frustrating to say the least. I'm fully vaccinated have my booster shot and still had Omicron right after Christmas last year, but the symptoms were very mild. Anyway, I feel bad I've not released an episode this long. So to make up for it, I am releasing two back-to-back weeks to catch up. I appreciate your understanding and value you all that listen to my podcast. In this episode, I have three stories for you: Where are you with your 2022 running goals? And some interesting https://blog.strava.com/press/yis2021/ (2021 statistics) from Strava, the popular running app. I know there are several workouts you can do to increase your speed to run a faster race. One speed workout I found exciting and doable is from https://www.marilynchychotacoaching.com/ (Coach Marilyn Chychota). How about a heartwarming story? https://www.americanpress.com/2021/12/26/father-and-daughter-take-on-26-2-mile-antarctic-ice-marathon/ (John Hixon and his daughter Lauren Phillips )recently ran the Antarctica Marathon. These stories will motivate and inspire you! As you may know, I am very involved with the Maui Marathon as the course director. Everything is set for the event on April 24th. I have a unique code for listeners that will give you 25% off the full or half marathon for the 2022 Maui Marathon.

Hello Runners, How is it going? It's February, and we have already completed one month of 2022. I hope you are all healthy. Are you on track with your running goals for 2022? And for our new runners who may have started your running journey as a new year resolution, are you still with us? I guarantee if you stick with running, it will change you as a person. I just returned from https://www.gohawaii.com/islands/maui (Maui )and had a wonderful time. So I spent much of my time prepping the course for the 2022 Maui Marathon coming up on Sunday, April 24th. The mile markings needed to be touched up, and the race course is now tip-top shape. And oh so beautiful! So consider running it this year! Just think of what a fantastic vacation this would be. And the good news is I have a unique code that will give you 25% off either the full or half marathon for the 2022 Maui Marathon. CODE: feelgoodrunning25 (case sensitive) This code does not apply to the Marathon Relay, 5K, or 10K races. While in Maui, I planned to run the 10K of the https://www.mauioceanfrontmarathon.com/ (Maui Oceanfront Marathon) instead; I helped the timing company at the halfway point of the half marathon. It was great to see all the runners as they turned to head back. A perfect morning! Of course, I saw many of my friends, and it felt like I had never left. Maui is forever in my heart, and who knows, I could once again be my home in the future. In this episode, I have four news stories for you. The first story is about our homegirl from right here in Denver, https://www.thefunnyrunner.com/ (Brittany Charboneau), who won overall women for all four races at the https://www.rundisney.com/events/disneyworld/disneyworld-marathon-weekend/events/challenges/ (Disney Marathon Goofy Challenge). The second is a story about how running makes you smarter. The third is about a remarkable woman https://www.sonomanews.com/article/sports/running-through-the-pain-to-100th-half-marathon/ (Gretchen Schoenstein). And finally, a heartwarming story about https://www.upworthy.com/pet-duck-nyc-marathon?rebelltitem=1#rebelltitem1 (Wrinkle the Duck), who ran the 2021 https://www.nyrr.org/tcsnycmarathon (NYC Marathon).

Hello Runners! Welcome to 2022! I hope your new year is off to a great start. A few episodes ago, I mentioned that I’m very happy to be out of 2021, It was a year I just assume forget for many personal reasons. But hey, I’ve started the new year vertical and that is a good thing. I’m on my way to https://www.gohawaii.com/islands/maui (Maui) this week to work on the http://mauimarathon.com (Maui Marathon) course which will be held on April 24th. I’ll also be heading up the https://www.mauioceanfrontmarathon.com/ (Maui Oceanfront Marathon’s) Cookie run this Thursday and running the 10K this Sunday. It’s been almost 2 years since I left Maui and really look forward to returning and seeing many of my friends. And yes, I sure miss Maui but must say I am very happy in Denver. Denver is a vibrant city with an incredible running community. I guess I’ve adapted. Well, for the first news segment this year, I wanted to provide some great information to get us off to a strong start and get us going with renewed motivation and inspiration. I found a few articles to help us amp up our running technique, build our strength and share some great pointers for those of us setting running goals for 2022. I signed up for the https://www.runrocknroll.com/las-vegas-register?gclid=f3d3ee75f2ad182663b88fabedc30ec5andgclsrc=3p.dsandmsclkid=f3d3ee75f2ad182663b88fabedc30ec5 (Las Vegas Half Marathon) next month. I have a goal I’d like to reach and have some major work to do to hit it. If you are a new runner welcome to the wonderful world of running. It could possibly change your life. The easiest way to start running is to just start. It’s that simple. Don’t overdo it. You will see improvement every time you run. And, if you haven’t already, go to a local running store and consult a specialist. They will guide you to the correct running shoes, gear, and you can ask as many running related questions as you like. You will leave the store excited and motivated. And please be sure to consult a physician before you start any new exercise programs. I wish each of you an awesome, healthy, and successful 2022!
