Episode 77. Struggle.

We struggle. We all struggle. We struggle with our running. We struggle with our recovery. We struggle with failure. We struggle with success. We struggle with our responsibilities and obligations. We struggle with our relationships with each other. We struggle with our relationships with ourselves. We struggle with struggling.

But do we really understand what it means to struggle. Well, that's the goal of this episode. My hope is that by the end of the show you have a new point of view of what it means to struggle and a more profound respect for yourself when you do in fact... struggle.

Thank you to everyone that has reached out over the last few weeks and told me that you needed this episode. That's exactly what Coach Bennett's Podcast is for. This podcast is for you.

Cheers,
Coach Bennett

Episode 75. Endurance.

This one is an important one. Because we are talking about one of the foundations of running (and living). We're talking endurance. That's right. And we're going to break down what endurance means. And we're going to talk about why we need it and why we need to work on it and how we can build it up and protect it. I hope you enjoy the episode and I hope it helps.
This is about running. This is not about running.

Cheers and thank you for listening.

Episode 73. How To Get Faster.

Oh baby! Fast is fun. I guess that means that faster is funner! So let's talk about how to get to that grammatically problematic place. This episode could have been 4 hours long and still not long enough. Why? Because there is so much that goes into getting faster. We'll discuss all the most essential ingredients to getting faster and we'll set ourselves up to run faster and learn even more about the sport and the training and ourselves. It's a pretty great episode. And we even have a Mindset Minute with mindset performance coach extraordinaire tammie bennett of the show up society. Told fast is fun and faster is funner.

Enjoy the episode and thank you for listening!
Cheers,
Coach Bennett

Episode 72. Why We Need To Recover.

You'd think that convincing people to take the time and initiative to do something like recover would be easy. Well, you'd be wrong and you'd be especially wrong if you thought that convincing runners to recover and recover enough would be easy. So, that's why we're doing this episode. I've talked about how to recover before. Now we're going to talk about why we recover. Strike that. Now we're going to talk about why we NEED to recover. And you better believe it when I tell you that this is about running. And this is not about running.

Cheers and thank you for listening!

Episode 71. How To Race Your Best.

Yes, this is about running and this is not about running. But this is definitely about running. And it's also definitely not about running, Doesn't matter if it's a marathon or 5K cross country. Doesn't matter if it's a 10K or a big presentation or an interview or an exam. You can always give your best AND set yourself up to give your best. That's what this episode is all about, It's about YOU. And what YOU can do when you are most wholly you. That's just a really fancy way of me saying when you are at your best you are who you are meant to be.

Here are some awesome links I promised.
