  • 16: How A Coach Guided Me Through Injury w/ Victoria (Train Smart Run Strong) (Mini Episode)
    Dec 3 2025
    This mini episode looks back at the first few weeks of working with my coach, Victoria from Train Smart Run Strong, when I showed up unsure, uncomfortable, and trying to figure out if my body could handle another marathon. We walk through how she approached my situation, the way she separates normal training fatigue from true red-flag pain, and why building a pain free foundation matters more than any workout. Along the way, we talk about the mindset shifts she teaches all injured athletes, the role of early confidence wins, and how variety and communication can quietly move you from panic mode to steady progress.

  • 101: New Beginnings at 53: Her First Marathon After Beating Cancer w/ Sheila Molony
    Dec 1 2025
    Sheila started running at 53 with nothing but a Couch to 5K app and a feeling that something in her life needed to change. What she didn’t know then was that running would carry her through one of the hardest chapters of her life. After a breast cancer diagnosis, surgery, radiation, and chemo, she rebuilt her strength mile by mile until she found herself standing on the start line of her first marathon at 59. Her story is full of late beginnings, grit, gratitude, and the quiet confidence that grows when you prove to yourself that you can do hard things.

    In this episode, Sheila walks us through the long path to 26.2, the training moments that nearly broke her, the ones that carried her, and the finish line that shifted everything. We talk about aging as a runner, learning to fuel, becoming mentally tough, and that it's never “too late” to start.

    If you need a reminder that running can rewrite your life at any age, this one is for you.

  • 15: 3 Benefits of Running a Marathon on Your Period (Mini Episode)
    Nov 26 2025
    A couple weeks ago I shared a post about starting my period the day before my marathon, and the response from female runners was huge. So many of you had questions about how it went, what I researched beforehand, and whether running a marathon on day two of your cycle is actually doable. In this mini episode I walk through what the experience was really like and dig into the research I did leading up to race day.

    We talk about why this happens more often than people think, the mental resilience it builds, how cycle tracking and knowing your body can help you feel more prepared, and the science-backed physical advantages that might actually work in your favor. If race day ever lines up with your cycle, or if you just want to understand this topic better, this episode offers helpful context and reassurance.
