Last month, double amputee Ryan Kules set three Guinness World Records for adaptive rowing: fastest marathon, fastest ultramarathon, and longest distance in one hour.
With both of us having an “Ultra Focus” this off season, but starting with totally different fitness levels, this is what it will look like from a training perspective.
We close out our podcast year the best way we know how: Q&A sesh!
When we look back a year from now, these are the race results and training blocks that will make us happy men in 2026!
A few episodes ago, we mentioned how the Hoka Speedgoat and Clifton just aren’t working for us like they used to and so many of you reached out to confirm your same experience. So, today we’re giving you eighteen alternative shoe options to consider!
We, but mostly Brakken, talk about our year of training, racing, and also what next year might look like!
We pick three shoes, three training locations, and three pieces of gear/clothing for each major race type: 5k/10k, Half Marathon/Marathon, and Ultramarathons.
The training, the current Pro scene, the race itself, and what Ultramarathon fitness allows you to do makes these the best race distances!
Mary Martin is the race director of the Standhope Ultra Challenge in Idaho: a race built for women, parents, and the next generation of mountain athletes.
The training, the current Pro scene, the race itself, and what HM / Marathon fitness allows you to do makes these the best race distances!
The training, the current Pro scene, the race itself, and what 5k / 10k fitness allows you to do makes these the best race distances!
Former NCAA D1 swimmer, current NYU med student, and recent Olympic Trials Marathon Qualifier off less than 50 miles per week!
The training, the current Pro scene, the race itself, and what Mile fitness allows you to do makes the Mile the best race distance!
Today’s topics: HRV, Strength Training, Extra Sleep vs Extra Training, 100M readiness, Strava Overtraining, and Backwards Walking.
Kirk is back in the studio and we’re answering your most pressing running questions!
A nutrition coach and sports dietitian in addition to being a runner herself, Kylee specializes in endurance athletes struggling with complex GI issues, race fueling complexities, disordered
eating, eating disorders, low energy availability, and REDS.
Sound familiar? The RMR podcast did this exact topic this week. Rich didn’t listen to this, we didn’t listen to his, and we did not discuss our talking points with each other prior to recording! Mostly because Rich didn’t know we were doing this. Check his out if you haven’t already and see where we are in alignment and where we disagree!
They aren’t going anywhere any time soon, so is the running community better or worse for their presence??
1Anytime, anywhere! These workouts are simply great for building overall fitness.
Kirk loves float style intervals. Brakken loves to hate them. What exactly makes these workouts worth doing?

hands down my favorite podcast. education and entertainment galore
This is the best running podcast for OCR. Kirk and Brakken give you all the fundamentals and advanced concepts to understand, construct, and refine your own training.
I listened to my first ever full podcast when my team mate Chris Shipley was interviewed by Kirk & Bracken earlier this year, I have listened to every one since & caught up on some of the earlier episodes, I am an OCR racer so maybe a little bias but these guys know there stuff & have got so many tips in this time. Keep up the good work lads 👌🏻
Fantastic podcast! Found this a little later but made to sure to catch up on all the previous episodes. Great insights from two elite obstacle course racers and stellar runners! Have applied many of the principles into my own training already!
another great episode! thanks for all the help tips!
The best podcast for running out there. They do focus on OCR, but I pull a ton of useful info on regular running from Kirk and Brakken. Plus, you get 2 episodes a week and their interview episodes are awesome. These guys know the questions to ask.
Great episode!!! fantastic information that I'm going to use Immediately! love listening guys!
