The Run to the Top Podcast Gets a New(ish) Host

Hein Mynhardt might consider himself an average runner, but his love for running is anything but ordinary. He joined us as this month’s feature athlete to share how running is about more than race results and how he’s maximizing fun with his running while still getting better in the sport. Hein loves traveling and after finishing the Boston Marathon this year, he has races planned across the globe. He’s a fellow Canadian so I loved getting his thoughts on what he loves about training there and why it can be so great to get away on occasion. It can be easy to get so tied up in all of the latest running tech and training strategies that you lose sight of your “why” for running. Luckily, this world nomad is an expert at having fun and I’m excited to share his thoughts with you. During the show, you’ll hear Hein answer questions including: How to get fitter while still having fun What it is Hein loves most about traveling and some of his favorite international races What goal races Hein has planned for the rest of the year And what advice he would give to other “average runners” This episode is sure to get you excited about your next run or race, so let’s get into it!

Running should be a safe sport for everyone who participates but unfortunately, that’s not always the case. This could happen for a variety of reasons including injuries, weather conditions, and even harassment. This is especially true for women and people of color who more frequently confront unsafe situations.  On today’s show, we’re joined by coaches Andie Cozzarelli and Hayley Jane to discuss what risks runners need to be aware of to stay safe and tips for dealing with or avoiding these dangers. We’ll hear their thoughts on how running can be made safer. Some of the questions we’ll answer include: What are the most common safety concerns runners face? Why might female runners need to be especially careful when running alone? How Andie and Hayley have handled unsafe situations in their own running? What are some strategies runners can use to stay safe when running  Running can have incredible mental and physical benefits but it’s important to practice it safely. Even if you have never experienced safety concerns when running, these strategies will prepare you for dealing with them if they do. So let’s get into it!

Stephen is a masters runner just like you, but like a lot of runners, has really struggled with bonking during the marathon, despite putting in what seems to be great training. Sound familiar?  When it comes to marathon training and hitting the wall it’s difficult to piece together exactly what the issue is.  Am I under or over training? Is my nutrition, salt or electrolyte intake the cause? How do I start to figure out where I’m going wrong? Well, you’re not alone. In today’s podcast, we’re going to take you inside one of our coaching calls with Stephen Stone, a masters runner just like you, who struggled with the same issues.  We’re going to dissect everything so you can see exactly how we look for the cause of this common problem. By the end of this episode, you’ll have an exact plan for what you can look for in your training.  Connect, Comment, Community Follow RunnersConnect on Instagram Join the Elite Treatment where you get first dibs on everything RTTT each month!

This week’s show brought to you by: MAS Iron Outside of training deficiencies, low iron is one of the most common reasons for poor results during workouts and races.  Recent research indicates that almost 56% of male runners and 86% of female runners suffer from an iron deficiency that severely hampers performance. The problem with eating iron-rich foods or supplementing with traditional iron supplements is that iron is notoriously difficult for the body to absorb and utilize. In fact, only about 25% of dietary iron found in animal sources is absorbed while 17% or less of the iron from plant sources is absorbed. But MAS Iron has found a way to combat these absorption issues to ensure you can get the iron you need for health and performance. By combining the most efficiently absorbed form of elemental iron with clinically proven ingredients to aid in absorption, MAS Iron performs like no other iron product on the market. In fact, clinical research has shown the combination of ingredients in MAS Iron can quadruple absorption and increase bioavailability by 30%, all while reducing GI issues by 50%. Check out the research and the results for yourself at masedge.com/iron. Runnersconnect fans will automatically save 20% on any purchase.

Laura Rutterford joins Run To The Top to discuss several important topics within our community.  We lead with her experience with hip dysplasia and the steps that she took through childhood and early adulthood to get to a point where she had near-perfect running form and the ability to train for and race half marathons.  After that, we get into her professional background as a physiotherapist and some of the insights she’s gained working with running-related clients to rehab various muscles, joints, posture, and overall movement issues.  Then we get into some of the essential exercises she recommends to improve form for endurance athletes and we conclude with her interest in runner-focused pilates.  This was a knowledge-packed episode coupled with touching, inspirational background stories that I think you’ll enjoy.

Only 0.3% of Americans participate in ultra races but if you’re not a part of this group (yet) you can still learn from the challenges of these difficult events. Coach Hayley is a talented 2:37 marathoner and recently completed her first-ever ultramarathon by finishing a 50k run through the Endurancelife Ultra Series. She even accidentally ran an extra 2 miles, something Hayley will speak about during the episode. Despite the mishap, she is now preparing for her first 100k race and has some great lessons to share with other runners. Whether you’re a veteran at the distance or have never run a race of any distance this is an insightful conversation about human perseverance and dealing with unexpected obstacles. As we unpack everything Hayley learned through this experience, we’ll go over some exciting topics that include: How to nail your fueling for ultra-endurance races The importance of testing your gear beforehand Why you may need to start slower than you think for your first ultra And why trying new things can make you a better athlete We spend a lot of time talking about how to make sure your race goes according to plan but for Hayley, it’s really the unexpected surprises that make this such a compelling story and that will offer valuable lessons for any runner.
