- 1 hour 12 minutesHow to Prevent and Treat Knee Pain and Injuries from Running: Runner's Knee and IT Band Syndrome with Kam Harder
Knee pain is one of the most common issues runners deal with — and also one of the most misunderstood.
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Kameron Harder (DPT) of Ridge Athletics to break down why knee injuries happen in runners, how to treat them correctly, and what you can do right now to prevent them from coming back.
We specifically dive into the two most common knee issues runners face:
Runner’s Knee (Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome)
IT Band Syndrome
If you’ve ever dealt with pain around the kneecap, sharp pain on the outside of the knee, or been told to “just stop running,” this episode will completely change how you think about knee injuries.
In this episode, we cover:
Whether running is actually bad for your knees (and what the research really says)
Why knee pain is usually a signal, not an injury
The biggest mistakes runners make when treating knee pain
Why strength training — not rest — is often the missing piece
The role your hips play in both runner’s knee and IT band issues
What you can run through safely vs. when you should modify training
Why foam rolling your IT band doesn’t work (and what to do instead)
How to prevent knee pain from becoming a recurring cycle
This is the first episode in a monthly injury-prevention series designed to help runners stay healthy, consistent, and durable — so you can keep training and racing without constantly being sidelined.
If knee pain has ever limited your running — or you want to make sure it never does — this episode is a must-listen.

17 December 2025, 4:13 pm - 59 minutes 58 secondsFrom 1 Mile Runs to 300 Miles: Lydia Oldham on Building Courage, Grit, and Meaning Through Running
Lydia Oldham didn’t come from a traditional ultrarunning background. She started running during lockdown — running 1 mile runs, sprinting every 5K, and having no idea she’d one day be creating 300-mile running projects across countries.
In this episode, Lydia breaks down how she built herself into someone capable of taking on massive, self-created challenges — including running solo across Portugal, completing a solo Speed Project, and most recently running 300 miles from London to Cornwall for charity.
But this conversation isn’t just about distance.
It’s about courage, self-belief, creativity, and redefining what’s possible when you stop waiting for permission.
We dive into:
How Lydia went from struggling through short runs to creating multi-day ultrarunning projects
Why self-created challenges can be more powerful than races
The mindset shift that helped her stop fearing failure
How she mentally navigates dark moments during 300-mile efforts
Why enjoying your runs matters more than “grinding”
How storytelling gives meaning to hard efforts
Why you don’t need elite talent to do extraordinary things
If you’ve ever thought:
“Could I do something bigger… or is that not for me?”This episode will change how you think about your limits — and what you’re capable of building over time.

15 December 2025, 11:47 pm - 1 hour 20 minutesHow I’m Designing My Western States 100 Miler Training — And How You Can Design Yours
If you’re training for a big race and unsure how to structure your training block, this episode gives you a repeatable framework you can use for any A-race, at any distance.
I’m using my preparation for the Western States 100 as the real-world example — not to list workouts or weekly mileage, but to show you how to think about training so you can build a plan that actually moves the needle.
In this episode, we cover:
• How to set goals that force real growth (without selling yourself short)
• The 5 pillars of ultra performance and how to identify your biggest limiter
• How to decide whether durability, speed, fueling, mindset, or execution deserves priority
• Why most runners train hard but still miss their potential
• The mistake athletes make when they plan too early — or too late
• How to structure training when your race isn’t guaranteed yet (lotteries, waitlists, life)
• Why aiming bigger almost always leads to better outcomes, even if you miss the goal
• How to avoid building a plan that looks good on paper but fails on race day
• The difference between “being fit” and being race-ready
• How to think in training blocks instead of workouts
• How to balance ambition with sustainability so you don’t burn out
• Why your biggest gains often come from fixing one key weakness — not doing more
• How to design a flexible plan that adapts as your life and training load changeThis isn’t a “here’s my Western States training” episode.
It’s a blueprint for building smarter training blocks — with Western States as the case study.SHOW LINKS:

13 December 2025, 1:11 am - 59 minutes 54 secondsHow Matt Shapiro Turned Pain Into Power Through Ultrarunning to Get Sober and Be the Best Version of Himself
In today’s episode, I sit down with Matt “Shapiro the Hero” — one of the most creative minds in endurance sports and one of the toughest, most resilient humans you’ll ever meet.
You’ve seen his work everywhere: Black Canyon, Mammoth, Cocodona, Sally McRae, Max Jolliffe… but today, you get to hear the story behind the lens — the journey that turned Matt from a talented photographer into a 200-mile finisher and a pillar of the endurance community.
We dive into:
✨ How documenting epic runners became a “cheat code” for his own ultra-running
✨ The moment he realized he could run 200 miles
✨ His wild 2024 triple — Ute 100 → Mogollon Monster → Mammoth 200
✨ His powerful journey through alcoholism, relapse, therapy, and ultimately sobriety
✨ Why runners with “all-or-nothing” personalities must learn balance
✨ The unexpected pacer who changed the final miles of his 200
✨ His philosophy for getting better one tiny step at a time
This is one of the most raw, honest, and inspiring conversations we’ve had on the show. Matt’s story is a reminder that endurance isn’t just about races — it’s about rebuilding your life, choosing a healthier path, and believing you can do hard things even when your past tells you otherwise.
If you need a spark of motivation or a reminder that you can turn things around, this is the episode.
Huge thank you to Matt for being on the show!

In this episode, I’m joined by one of the most influential and genuinely kind humans in the ultrarunning world: Andy Glaze.
If you’ve ever seen Andy’s emotional Moab 240 finish, watched his weekly 100-mile streak unfold, or followed his journey across the biggest ultras on the planet, you know how much heart, courage, and consistency this man brings to the sport.
We dive deep into:

• How he chooses his races each year (and how you should too)
• The highs and lows of UTMB, Leadville, Cocodona, Crazy Mountain & the Arizona Monster
• Why he’s leaning more into crewed races — and how that changed everything for him

The holidays are one of the most challenging times of the year for runners — not just physically, but mentally, emotionally, and logistically. With travel, family dynamics, colder weather, stress, big meals, busy schedules, shifting routines, and social expectations… your training can feel like it’s getting pulled in ten different directions.

• How to use creative solutions, micro-workouts & flexible planning to stay on track
• When to turn holiday chaos into a perfectly timed “life deload week”

26 November 2025, 1:23 am - 1 hour 33 minutesHow to Become an Ultrarunner at Any Age: Lessons From Coach Kirk Blevins
If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s too late to start ultrarunning — or whether you can build elite durability while juggling a full-time job, a family, and life responsibilities — this episode is going to light you up.
In this conversation, I sit down with Everyday Ultra coach, ultrarunner, dad, and leader — Kirk Blevins — to unpack his incredible journey from powerlifter… to OCR athlete… to 50 miler… to 100 miler… and ultimately his first 200-mile finish at the Across Florida 200.
Kirk started endurance sports later in life — but through mindset, structure, and smart training, he’s built a level of durability most runners never reach.
Inside this episode, you’ll learn:
• How Kirk went from watching a Spartan Race on TV to signing up within minutes
• The brutal first 50-miler that nearly broke him — and why he doubled the distance anyway
• Why starting later in life isn’t a disadvantage… and might actually be a superpower
• The mindset shift that helped him handle ankle-deep mud, freezing rain, and adversity
• The training changes that allowed him to run a 200-miler with zero soreness
• How he balanced training, career, and family without burning out
• The role of strength training, mobility, and footwork in staying injury-free
• What he learned about recovery that transformed his performance
• Why finding your “apex” of volume and recovery is the real secret to ultra success
• How to build belief after a bad race — and why it’s never too late to startThis episode is packed with practical training insights, mindset shifts, and real-world lessons from someone who has built an unbreakable foundation while living a full life.
Whether you’re training for your first ultra or leveling up to the next distance, Kirk’s story will show you exactly what’s possible.

25 November 2025, 10:27 pm - 57 minutes 4 secondsSupplements for Ultrarunning Backed by Science and Research
Supplements get talked about everywhere in the endurance world — but very few actually have real scientific backing behind them.
In this episode, we break down the six very proven, very researched supplements for ultrarunners. Not based on hype. Not based on trends. Based on data, studies, and actual performance outcomes.
We also talk through:
• Why supplements are “small rocks” — and which big rocks matter far more

• What to look for in quality, purity, and certification
• How to use supplements strategically throughout different training blocks
• The surprising category of supplements that helps both performance and cognition during long ultras
• The most common mistakes runners make with supplementation
• Practical ways to test and implement supplements without blowing up your gut or your raceWhether you’re supplement-curious or want to sharpen your performance with evidence-based tools, this episode gives you the full, honest breakdown — with zero fluff.
If you want the truth about what actually works for ultrarunning, this one’s for you.

But the truth?
You can do both—and thrive—if you structure your year the right way.In this coaches roundtable episode, Joe teams up with Everyday Ultra Coaches Angela Sterf and Andrew Redden—two athletes who have Boston-qualified, hit recent marathon PRs, and run ultras (even 100-milers) in the same year.
