This week we speaking on Black Trumpers and Black Non-Voters. Misogyny? Stockholm Syndrome? Or Both? What is it? What is making Black Americans turn to a Facist, a Racist and a wannabe Dictator for leadership, to be our Commander in Chief? Where is the disconnect? And why are WE demanding so much from Harris but silent on Trump? We have some black …

This episode is Part 2 of our 2 part book revi…

We made loud grunting noises to celebrate recording this great episode! A primary training discussion was on putting the finishing touches on the quick build for the Javelina 100 Miler. It's getting very, very real. Confidence is rising, and falling, and falling some more, then rising again. We bring you into the process to feel just how hard it al…

We loaded up on some "awake" tea to feel extra caffeinated for this spicy episode! Listeners send in such great questions, and it was so fun to get down and dirty with some fascinating topics. It's called a "no secrets" Q+A because we often see conversations with elite athletes and coaches where it's clear that we aren't getting the full picture. O…

We slurped down a truly inspiring amount of carbohydrates before recording this great episode! The main topic was a new study with a fascinating design, equalizing carb intake across a day, but modulating the quantity consumed in the post-exercise window. There were major changes in next-day performance! Training can often be an adaptation contest,…

We pinched each other to make sure it wasn’t all a dream before recording this celebration episode! This one was all about processing David’s course record run at the Leadville 100 Miler. For 19 years, Matt Carpenter’s Leadville record of 15:42 has been talked about as one of the most untouchable marks in running. But a lot has happened since 2005,…

The outcome of this Presidential election literally means life or death for many. Now is not the time to lead with emotion, misogyny or ego. Not voting is detrimental in and of itself. Not voting in this particular election can literally turn back the hands of time. While these are all true statements, it’s not meant to shame or bully anyone into v…

We felt infinite gratitude to not feel infinite stomach acid before this celebration episode! The main training topic was Kilian Jornet's training to win Sierre Zinal, the Olympics of trail running.

We considered buying our very own pommel horse before this amazing episode! The main topic was a new study that may show a big reason for performance leaps across sports. In the study, just a few weeks of heat training caused 3% improvements in hemoglobin mass, associated with jumps in fitness. However, the adaptations reversed to baseline rapidly.…

We had a party with our insect friends before recording this great episode! A big topic was answering a listener question on how to use heart rate zones in practice when the data can seem so noisy.

President Biden isn’t stepping down! Stop dragging it! Stop Gaslighting American voters!

We have more importan…

We took some Big Leadville Energy into this great episode! The main topic was the Silver Rush 50 Miler, which David raced on Saturday.

This episode is about falling…

How ironic is it to be celebrating America’s freedom from British rule on July 4, 1776 the same week SCOTUS grants Trump the same powers Great Britain had over America.

We were flying high after the best sports week of all time for this amazing episode! The main topic was the 2024 Western States 100, the most insane race we have ever seen.

Image is important but character is everything. The stakes are too high in this election to prioritize physical performance over integrity. The first 2024 Presidential Debate proved to be a disaster with no clear victor. Trump did what he always do, lie and deflect, meanwhile Biden scared the living shit out of voters who obviously forgot that the …

We are coming to you from Eugene, Oregon at the Olympic Track Trials for this amazing episode!

We thought long and hard about alien physiology before recording this great episode! The main topic was a wildly cool wrinkle in training science. Across all different types of events, the most predictive variable for performance is often how fast an athlete can go at VO2 max effort. That could have massive implications for how we think about train…

Numbers don’t lie! Bad Boys 4 brought in 104 million globally opening weekend despite Stephen A Smith’s threats of non-support of the movie until Will Smith gives the black community an explanation on the slap heard around the world.

We were emotionally hardened by some sleepless nights before recording this special episode!

We celebrated a week with minimal life drama (YAY) before recording this great episode! The main training topic was a new study monitoring response v. non-response.

We got the surprise of our lives before recording this dazed-and-excited episode! The main topic was the Canyons 100k. It was Megan's dream race, and you may have seen... she did not start.

  continue reading
 
We sipped on some of the finest, chalkiest electrolyte drink for this great episode! The main topic was gearing up for big events, spurred by Megan's upcoming adventure at the Canyons 100k. After the health issues, we were unsure whether we'd ever be able to have this sort of discussion on the podcast, and listeners have been there every step of th…

We enjoyed an all-expenses-paid ambulance trip before this amazing episode! The main topic was David's harrowing bike crash.

Speaking of too comfortable, those 6 demonic dogs down in Mississippi called the goon squad were sentenced this week and it's about time! It's about time justice is served in the back woods. This Monday is doomsday! Trump has to beg, borrow or find close to half of billion dollars or Leticia James grabbing everything of his ain't tied down. LOL Can…

We vibed with a new playlist (Taylor's version) before this great episode!
