    #645 - Christian Allen’s Rapid Rise to the Top of International Trail Running
    2024/09/18
    Christian Allen might be the most fascinating man in U.S. trail running. The two time all-American at BYU and Weber State is now a professional trail runner sponsored by Nike and Peregrune. He was able to parlay his high level college success into a trail career that is currently focused on top sub-ultra events in Europe and the U.S. He is a dynamic racer who isn't afraid to push from the front, even against some of the best runners in the world. All-in-all, he is my favorite American male trail runner to follow and it was an honor to have him on the show. In this episode he talks about his entrance into the pro trail running, how being a man of faith and a man of action create a perfect symbiosis, and how he was able to reach the podium at some of the most legendary races in the world so early in his career.

    #644 - Succeeding Through Short-Term Injuries with Bridget Chamberlin
    2024/09/12
    Often times we take deep dives into runner's recovery from traumatic injuries. Those are useful and inspiring but not always relevant to most runners. In this episode, we take a look at the physical, mental, and emotional recovery from a short-term injury setback. Bridget Chamberlin returns to the podcast to talk about a three week injury setback that occurred with eight weeks left in her build to the 2024 Chicago Marathon. Bridget does a wonderful job detailing all of the feelings associated with her injury as well as the "all-in" method she used to bounce back and possibly return better than before. If you want to learn more about Bridget's tremendous progression as a runner, you can listen to her feature story in episode 573. You can also follow her at www.instagram.com/bridgetchamberlinruns.
