Your athletes finish their last big race. Weather cools off. Kids go back to school. And your numbers start to dip. I used to panic about this. Now I know better. This is just the season, and it's the biggest one of the whole year, the one where over 70% of athletes buy coaching. In this episode, I'm breaking down what selling season actually is, why it happens, and the two things every coach needs to focus on right now to make the most of it. I'm also walking through my Selling Season Star, ...

Send us Fan Mail Are you actually a slow runner — or are you simply a runner who could improve your pace? There’s a big difference. In this episode of the 12 Months to Marathon Podcast, I explore the difference between a running performance problem and a running identity problem — and why the language you use about yourself could be holding you back. We look at common statements such as: “I am a slow runner.” “I’m injury-prone.” “I’ll never be able to run tha...

Coach Caroline and Coach Valerie talk about bringing RunRx clinics back and what makes an in-person clinic different from watching videos at home. This live training is set up at a park with shade, water, bathrooms, and room to work, but it is not a mileage-heavy event. Instead, runners practice the elements of the gait cycle, do drills, and take a few running steps so they can feel the movement in real time.Valerie explains why that live feedback matters so much. In person, she can correct runners

Send us Fan Mail Mont Blanc in the background has a way of rewriting your definition of “normal.” We’re checking in with Taylor Stack from Chamonix as UTMB week starts to buzz, and he shares what it feels like to train in a place where even the “easy” routes quietly stack thousands of feet of vertical gain. We talk about the practical reality of Alpine trail running versus Colorado mountain running: bigger relief from a lower start, fewer truly flat miles, and terrain that can surprise you e...

Send us Fan Mail Chamonix has a way of making trail running feel like the center of the universe, and Sydney Peterson is soaking it up while she can. After stacking a string of brutally competitive European races, she joins me for a catch-up from the Alps where recovery, team time, and UTMB week energy all collide. We talk about what it’s like to live among people who treat mountains like a daily ritual, from running vests at the grocery store to the quiet confidence that comes from being sur...

Elite athletes don't just pick a carbohydrate target and hope for the best. Their fueling strategies are built, tested, practiced, and adjusted around three key levers: carbohydrates, fluid, and sodium. Precision Fuel & Hydration Sports Scientist Emily Arrell joins Cliff Pittman to explain how those plans come together—from sweat testing and gut training to making real-time decisions when things go wrong on race day. HOST Cliff Pittman is the Coaching Development Director at CTS, leadin...

It just happened to a coach I work with. Her athlete didn't finish, and the conversations we had after got me thinking about something we never talk about: how the coach handles a DNF, not just the athlete. In this episode, I get into the grief of it (yes, even my own DNS-turned-finish story at Ironman Lake Placid), what you can and can't control as a coach, and a simple debrief process to help your athlete (and yourself) move through it and find the next start line. Plus, why this isn't just...

Send us Fan Mail Is the Running Boom Actually Bad for Running? Running is booming. More people are joining running clubs, entering races, chasing marathon places and turning up to parkrun than ever before. Surely that's a good thing? Mostly, yes. But a recent situation at Weymouth parkrun, where events were temporarily suspended following concerns around overcrowding, overtaking and participants being barged or tripped, raises an interesting question: Is running becoming a victim of its own s...

In this episode of the RunRx Podcast, Coach Caroline and Coach Valerie talk about what really happens inside the RunRx Zooms and why so many runners feel awkward at first, but then start to understand the movement over time. Valerie explains how the Zooms work, why they require only a small amount of space, and how she coaches runners live through drills, warmups, hops, skips, and running-specific movement patterns. The conversation also covers why most runners do not naturally do drills, why so

We have to fess up - the first recording of this was either lost or corrupted, and we were gutted! So, Rich, Hannah and Sikhalo from Activate the Burners picked ourselves back up again (Rich was devastated!) and whizzed through a second record to react to Audrey Werro's win over Keely Hodgkinson at the European Athletics Championships, with Femke Broeders-Bol taking bronze. We also fly through the rest of the night - including a return to form for Gianmarco Tamberi. 📸 Erin Groll Podium is proud

How long does your longest run really need to be when training for an ultra?I look at total training volume, diminishing returns, back-to-back runs and why there’s no magic number. Plus, when very long days do make sense, and real examples from runners I’ve coached through 100+ mile ultras. Short episodes. Long miles.

Whether you're nine weeks out from an early October race or twelve weeks out from something in November, you're almost there.You'll learn: Why this phase often feels harder than it should What your training should actually look like this month And how to get through the grind without second-guessing months of good work One thing that can definitely help immediately is taking a few moments

Racing at altitude can feel intimidating, especially if you live at sea level. Should you buy an altitude tent? Sleep in a hypoxic chamber? Wear an altitude mask? In this episode, CTS Director of Coaching Cliff Pittman explains what actually improves altitude performance, how to time your arrival before race day, where heat training fits, and why your biggest advantage is still the fitness you build before you travel. Whether you're preparing for Leadville, Pikes Peak, or any race at elevatio...
