1357 QT Comparing AI and Human Coaching for Runners
How do AI coaches/training platforms compare to human coaches?
There are pros and cons to both options, but from my (admittedly biased) perspective, human coaches are still head and shoulders better than any AI platform I've seen.

1356 QT: My Thoughts on an Active Recovery (Best Of-ish)
Ask a dozen runners what active recovery means, and you're likely to get about a dozen different answers.
My take on an active recovery works perfectly well for me. If you're struggling in this area, hopefully you can use this episode to help you create your ideal active recovery protocol.
Are you ready to take your running to the next level by working with a coach?
Check out http://DizRuns.com/coaching for details on the various levels of coaching that I have available.
Are you struggling in a certain area of your training and would like to pick my brain to try and find a way to get back on track?
Schedule a consultation call and I’ll help you work through whatever is getting you down at the moment.

1355 QT In Running, and in Podcasting, Evolution is Inevitable
Looking back on the last 12 years of Diz Runs Radio, it's kind of crazy to see the twists and turns the show has taken over the years.
Evolution truly is inevitable, so you might as well accept it instead of trying to fight against it.

Are you struggling in a certain area of your training and would like to pick my brain to try and find a way to get back on track?
Schedule a consultation call and I’ll help you work through whatever is getting you down at the moment.
