  • Can You Get Faster as You Age? Running After 40

    Can You Get Faster as You Age? Running After 40
    Nov 6 2026

    Can you actually get faster at running as you get older? Or does turning 40 mean your fastest running days are behind you? In this episode of the FORDY RUNS Running Podcast, we're talking all about running after 40, whether age really does slow us down and why so many runners are actually setting personal bests in their 40s, 50s and beyond.

    We discuss how training changes as we get older, the importance of recovery, strength training, consistency and whether experience can make up for what we might lose in outright speed. Is it possible to keep improving your marathon and half marathon times as you age? Should older runners train differently? And when does age really start to affect running performance? Whether you're chasing a new PB, getting into running later in life or simply trying to stay fit and healthy, this episode is for you. 💬

    NYC MARATHON 2026 Preview: This is the best race in the world!
    Oct 30 2026

    The NYC Marathon is the biggest, loudest marathon on the planet, and we think it's the best race in the world. In this 2026 preview, we break down what makes New York so special, from the five boroughs and the bridges to the wall of noise on First Avenue. Whether you're running NYC this year, chasing a ballot spot, or just love big-city marathons, this one's for you.


    In this episode:

    • Why the NYC crowds are unlike any other marathon
    • The course, borough by borough, and where it gets tough
    • The bridges: Verrazzano, Queensboro and the quiet before First Avenue
    • Pacing tips for a hilly, crowded course
    • Race-week logistics: getting to Staten Island, the start villages and the wait
    • Our predictions and who to watch in the 2026 race
