Alrighty. So I am going to keep this intro very short & sweet. What we have on tap for you this week is a lengthy introduction into what we think will be a series of episodes on what makes training Training. Here we explicate the who, what, where, when & why - as we see it - of training. Next week, John & I will be recording without Michael as he'll be traipsing across the Italian peninsula on his honeymoon. We plan on breaking down the various systems that we train when we

The Art of Running: Grace & a Beautiful Race

The struggle is real, my friends, the struggle is real. While it's understood that we can't be on all the time, as creative folk, we feel the pressure to bring the heat every week. This week's episode is an attempt to salvage an entire day's recording where we'd flopped around like fish in the bottom of a leaky boat. Of course, the reason for the flopping was hubris...We'd gotten pretty confident that we could pull off any conversational trick with flying colors, so we decided we'd

FUNdaMENTALS 03: To Fuel Or Not To Fuel? Is That...

2023/05/10

In our continuing series on the FUNdaMENTALS of the sport of running, we wrestle with one of the bears every marathoner is required to attempt to tame. While food, nutrition & fueling will alway be loaded topics, we try to dig deeper: Is there a standard protocol? Or is it simply trial & error? There are those who run nutrition free & others who engineer a very specific & well-oiled plan of attack for maximizing the benefits of in-race nutrition. In this episode we unpack

After the amazing results in London, the interwebs exploded again in allegations of doping. While we've danced around this topic a few times, in this episode we dive into the deep end. While we don't have any answers or novel suggestions, we do have opinions. But you know about opinions & assholes, right? It seems we'll really never get to the bottom of this topic but we hold that as fans it's important to focus on the Good, the True & the Beautiful. We refuse to be jaded &

That Old Boston Magic

2023/05/02

We live in a world where the old gods have seemingly been tamed by the one God, & for the last 100 years the twin lords of order - reason & science - have declared the one God dead. But those of us who run know there is something deep & mysterious about the marathon distance. It seems to be a strange attractor, pulling anyone remotely interested under its spell. & if there is an old god attached to the marathon, Boston would be its primal home. It may seem strange to talk of

Ted Lasso 800s

2023/04/19

There are few legacy sessions with more legs than the Yasso 800s workout. In the fall of 2001, Amby Burfoot wrote an article in Runner's World about a session that the magazine's races services manager, Bart Yasso did repeatedly in preparation for a marathon. He'd been doing this session 3-4 times a cycle for over 15 years. It's simple as shit: 10 x 800m in your marathon goal time with tequal rest. So if you want to go sub 3, you do 10 x 800m in 3:00 w/ a 3 min rest. In this episode, we

Buckle up, ladies & gentlemen, you're in for an amazing ride. This week on the Keep Going podcast, we are joined by Paul Carrozza, the Godfather of Austin running. In our No Direction Home episode a few weeks ago (Episode 11, for reference) we mentioned how one of the three pillars holding up the foundations of Austin running was the mercurial & magical energy bottled up in RunTex, the original local running store that Paul & his wife Sheila owed & operated between

"One good thing about music, when it hits you you feel no pain."- Bob Marley & The Wailers from Trenchtown RockHas a truer statement ever been uttered?!? When we consider the source, one of the lions of 20th century music who expanded the musical palettes of millions of people around the globe, we have it on excellent authority.

Dark Necessity: The Paradox of Technology

2023/03/28

At the risk of eliciting hundreds of eye rolls due to another podcast discussing the perils of technology, Keep Going is diving into the fray. We know it's a bit risky because we too are experiencing the palate fatigue around the talking heads warning us about AI, the singularity & advancing techno-annihilation. But fear not! We are not experts! We are 1/3rd rube, 1/3rd luddite & 1/3rd dabbler...I'll let you attempt to determine who is what. But we are decidedly NOT in preacher

FUNdaMENTALS 02: Nine Magic Bullets

Keep Going ·

2023/03/21

It was in the fall of 1993, that I was introduced to the concept of a "magic bullet". Tom Waits had recorded his album, The Black Rider which was based on a play co-written by William S Burroughs. Like any good Gen-X boy, I was utterly enthralled by the Beats in general but Burroughs in particular. The juxtapositions of fatalism & magical thinking, heroin-chic & creative genius were compelling but ultimately, his willingness to make beauty from chaos was foundational to my budding

For some, a nearly two hour conversation about the future of the sport of running - between three relative bozos - may be a bridge too far. For others of you, this will really help reveal significant changes we feel will revolutionize the sport. Recent NCAA legislation has slowly filtered into the real world of collegiate distance running. The first athlete to sign a significant NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) contract is Katelyn Tuohy of NC State, in signing with adidas, her school's shoe

No Direction Home: Austin as Cultural Case Study

2023/03/07

Does running have a home court or home base? With stakeholders across three distinct disciplines (track & field, road running & trail/ultra running), is there any cultural center where we can invest our effort, time & money to cohere & thrive? Using Austin as a case study, we explore various means & modes of bottling the magic that running provides us as individuals into an elixir to share with all movement culture. We come up against a number of seeming dead ends before

We go anywhere & everywhere. Enjoy!
