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??
Anytime, 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?
Ultra runner extraordinaire, Mark Dowdle, joins us to chat all things Backyard Ultras and Last Man Standing events.
If two 5 mile runs equal one 8 mile run, what does the 4x4x48 Challenge equal? And does a 15:00 5k runner hurt the same as a 15 minute two mile runner, assuming they are both at max effort?? What about time spent in zones?!? Let chaos ensue!
We choose your six best questions of the week to spend a little extra time analyzing and talking through!
The weather is finally shifting away from the summer heat and it is time to go find out exactly what kind of fitness you’ve build this year!

When life dictates that you need some time away from full bore training, but you don’t really want or need a real offseason, it’s time for a Bridge Season!
Today we’re re-airing our interview with Rylan Schadegg. Rylan passed away last week and this is the best way we know of keeping his voice alive.
High mileage with less ‘Quality” workouts or low mileage with more Quality? Singles or Doubles? Base Building before starting Speed Work or doing it concurrently? Long Runs or Medium Runs?
Last week we discussed why a formula CAN’T accurately tell you how much hill work you should be doing. This week we discuss exactly what you SHOULD be doing in training!
A listener sent us a reel that gives a simple calculation for determining how much vertical gain every runner should be doing. Is it perfect? Just okay? Terrible?
We cover 8 great listener questions, ranging from speed work to marathon training!
Wrapping up our mini series, some aspects of running can be very overrated at times while being very underrated in certain circumstances.

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!
