Team USA Marathoner Emma Bates on Embracing Her Emotions and Finding Balance
Fueling The Pursuit
07/11/22 • 56 min
Episode Notes
"It doesn't matter what you do in this moment. It's all about everything that we put together this entire season. We don't have to have, you know, this "A" workout. You can have a bunch of "B" workouts put together. And again, the accumulation of all those workouts is going to end up with a really great result."
Today's guest is Emma Bates, elite marathoner for the USA and one of the three U.S. women's marathoners competing at the upcoming World Championships.
Emma said one of the coolest things we've heard anyone say on this podcast. She said we all need to learn how to “dance with discomfort.” In other words, if you want to reach your potential in anything you’re pursuing, you have to get comfortable with being uncomfortable. You have to make “discomfort” your go-to dance partner. By embracing this notion, Emma was able to place 2nd at the 2021 Chicago Marathon back in October. On that day, she became one of the 10 fastest female marathoners in US history!
Make no mistake about it, it wasn’t an easy journey for her to achieve this milestone. What’s really cool is she admits she had to make adjustments to her circumstances to finally experience the successes she’s now having. We talk about those adjustments and the importance of enjoying the journey in this fun-filled conversation with Emma! We think you’re going to love it.

Sports Dietitian Jessica Isaacs on Making Nutrition Fun & Accessible
Fueling The Pursuit
06/10/22 • 56 min
"We have this misconception that we need to look a certain way to perform on our best. Physical aesthetics and athletic performance don't go hand in hand always."
Today's guest is Jessica Isaacs, the Sports Dietitian for the Los Angeles Clippers and a Master Nutrition Coach for BodyBuilding.com.
Everyone has questions about diet – from what to eat to lose weight, to build muscle, to think more clearly, to have more energy, to perform better and to sleep better. Our guest, Jessica Isaacs, not only shares much needed answers to some of these questions, she does it in a way that’s fun and easy to understand. Jessica was inspired to become a sports dietitian after overcoming her own negative experiences with diet and exercise. She’s determined to help others do the same. I like to think of her as a dietitian on a mission.
It’s amazing how easy it is to take our health for granted. Thankfully, people like Jessica exist in the world. She reminds each of us about the significant impact the right eating habits can have on our daily life experiences. I can’t wait for you to listen to this conversation and find one piece of advice that could help you take a big step forward towards your next personal best!

Inspirational Marathoner Tommie Runz on Sobriety & Trauma's Power to Transform Us
Fueling The Pursuit
04/13/22 • 66 min
"I think that we don't give ourselves enough credit in many areas for the strength we have cause it doesn't seem like the connection should be made to something else. But if you can be strong in one area, you can translate that to almost any other area of your life."
Today's guest is Tommie Runz, a 2:48 marathoner who recently qualified for the upcoming Boston Marathon.
Tommie has one of the coolest stories in running today. Five years ago, running became the tool he used to transform his life. It has taken him on a journey to not only becoming sober but also a growing inspiration to anyone who hears his story. What makes this conversation special is Tommie’s willingness to be open, honest, complex and vulnerable.
His message: be honest with yourself so you can finally overcome what’s holding you back. We talk about the transformative power of running throughout this conversation, but if any sport makes you feel free and empowered, then it can do for you what running has done for Tommie. His story is proof that the right personal changes can help you overcome whatever seems impossible to you right now.

Champion Sprinter & Community Builder Maurelhena Walles on Pursuing Goals in Sport and Life
Fueling The Pursuit
03/08/22 • 66 min
"You know, it's the weirdest thing because sometimes I step back and try to think of how I do it. And it's just a real natural love for running. Like when you hear those things about, you know, this person was born to do this sport or this thing, like I really feel I was born to run."
Today's guest is 2017 master's gold medalist at 60m and founder of Equity Design Inc, Maurelhena Walles.
Maurelhena is just dripping with cool throughout our conversation with her. The cool factor she brought with her today made for a high energy conversation that left me and Bryan wanting more. If you don’t know who Maurelhena is, let me try to describe her in just four words — community builder through sports.
Maurelhena has spent her entire life making the most of what was around her. She didn’t allow limitations or a lack of resources to discourage her from going after whatever she set her sights on. And as an adult, she has found a way to continue this approach to life. She’s found a way to continue competing in the sport she loves (track and field), while building a business that helps others improve their own lives through movement. Even though it’s understandable how much we all struggle to find time to do what we love or to get involved in our own community, it’s not something we have to accept. Maurelhena’s entire life journey is proof that this is true.
I feel so inspired to be more involved in my community after learning about Maurelhena’s story and her company Equity Design. She’s expanded my perspective and opened my eyes to what’s possible. This conversation is one I think I needed to hear right now. After listening to this episode, my guess is you’ll feel the same way too.

Record-Breaking Marathoner Nathan Martin on Running His Own Race
Fueling The Pursuit
02/25/22 • 49 min
"The biggest thing for me is trusting my fitness, trusting my body and saying, ‘Hey, you know what, if I end up, you know, not making a team or end up not placing where I wanted to place, it’s because I took the approach I wanted to and knew that I could be successful.’”
Our guest today is Nathan Martin, the fastest ever U.S. born African American marathoner and 8th place finisher at the 2021 New York City Marathon.
You may not assume it (and he intentionally will not boast about it) but Nathan Martin is one of the best long distance runners in the world right now. He’s genuinely humble about his rise in the sport and is interested in only two things: reaching his full potential and being an inspiration to others. That’s it. The really cool thing is his recent accomplishments serve as a reminder that there’s no standard route to the top of running or any other sport for that matter. It shows what’s possible when you wholeheartedly embrace a “never give up” attitude.
There’s no question that this kind of thinking is required if you want to achieve your goals, both big and small. As you listen to our conversation with Nathan, you’ll discover why focusing on your potential rather than things you can’t control, like your competitors and what they may or may not do on race day, can eventually lead to achieving a new personal best, quite possibly more than once.

Former NFL Lineman Eric Wood on Figuring Out What's Next
Fueling The Pursuit
02/08/22 • 62 min
"I think there's so much value in being a dreamer and a visionary but that could be deflating at times too because you know, those are your visions. Those are three, 10 years out, well in a month from now, if you're not that much closer, that could be really deflating. And that's where having your daily process goals and, and just knocking out those daily wins. That's where keeping track of those can also be a tremendous asset as well."
When it comes to sports, there are a lot of highs and lows. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. And, every once in a while, you lose a game or competition that hurts more than the others because you had to go so far to get to that moment only to fall just shy of winning. In our conversation with former Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Eric Wood, a lot of our conversation centered around this idea. The idea of dealing with unexpected, abrupt changes that you’re not quite ready for when they happen.
In this episode, Eric was kind enough to share the heart-wrenching story behind his career ending neck injury and what it took to figure out what was next for him. We explore the concept of how serving others helped him carve out a clear, meaningful path in life after a nine year career in the NFL. And he drives home a lot of the tips and insights he shares about how to achieve personal growth with a unique 30-day challenge that might help you achieve more of your goals this year.
Eric really brings it in this inspirational podcast conversation with us today. So get ready for a conversation that’s filled with ways to make meaningful progress in your life.

Twin Crossfit Stars Saxon and Spencer Panchik on Risks and Execution
Fueling The Pursuit
01/11/22 • 38 min
“You're just a foot away from success. And it's just being resilient and fighting for what you want. It doesn't matter how many times you're knocked down. It's just standing up.”
Our guests this week are Saxon and Spencer Panchik, two of the fittest men on the planet today.
For most, living up to an older sibling's success is a deterrent when it comes to choosing a sport or similar endeavor. The opposite is true for Spencer and Saxon. It’s actually become a major factor that drives them in their pursuit to crossfit excellence. The experience gained by their older brother, Scott Panchik, one of the greatest crossfit athletes ever, has become the blueprint they leverage as they navigate their own journey in the sport. As twins, they have a built-in accountability partner when it comes to training at a high level everyday and growing a successful gym business. They credit a lot of their success to their ability to do three things really well: staying in control of their emotions, mastering proper execution and knowing when to take risks.
Throughout our conversation, you’ll benefit from hearing how they use these skills to maintain a steady rise in the crossfit global rankings year-after-year. Make sure to listen ‘till the very end when they share a powerful story of how their fall from a 75-foot cliff when they were 12 years old led to where they are today!
Timestamped Show Notes:
(3:12) Getting to the Crossfit Games...
(7:49) Focusing on positive outcomes and the law of attraction...
(10:04) Managing expectations...
(13:56) Training, working, and strategizing together...
(18:02) “In training, we're pushing ourselves to fail. We are taking those risks every single day to see what's truly possible. And then when we get into competitions, we'll make those adjustments as needed.”
(21:23) It’s all about pacing.
(23:51) “At the end of the day, we're brothers, and we train together every day. And we're brothers before we're competitors.”
(25:43) Is there a Panchik mentality?
(28:22) A crazy accident and a new direction at 12...
(32:33) “It doesn't matter how many times you're knocked down. It's just standing up.”

5x Olympian Abdi Abdirahman on Sustaining 20+ Years of Running Excellence
Fueling The Pursuit
12/17/21 • 45 min
"During the race, to be honest, I don't wear a watch. Rule number one. I don't run for time. I just get to the front and hang on as long as I can."
Our guest this week is Abdi Abdirahman, 5-time US Olympian at 10,000 meters and the marathon.
I’ve known Abdi for about fifteen years now. If you know anything about this living legend in the sport of running it’s that he brings joy wherever he goes. There’s never a dull moment when he’s around. Just ask any of his peers. In fact, you can find out for yourself when you read his new book, Abdi’s World. Throughout his book are anecdotes from some of the best runners from the past few decades. They all share the common theme of how calm, cool and fun Abdi is, no matter what. This may be the secret to his twenty plus years of success as a long distance runner for the US.
Bryan and I got to interview him on the Go Be More podcast in July of 2020. He shared so much wisdom from his journey with us in that interview. Today, we get to bring things full circle as we dive into his experience running the marathon at the Tokyo Olympics and some of the lessons he shares in his new book. Abdi’s been competing at the highest level of running and we want to give you insight into how he’s done it. Who knows. Maybe his approach will be the key to helping you reach your own goals.
Timestamped Show Notes
(2:57) Giving credit to Tokyo, the first Olympic venue since Covid...

(12:08) “I'm still, you know, a work in progress. And that's one thing you have to understand, things don't happen overnight.”
(15:50) Approach to injuries...
(19:08) “But at the end of the day, I let not those goals consume or control me or just make my life around that thing.”
(20:49) Driven by passion or achievement...
(25:59) Some unexpected training regimens...
(28:23) Competition, technology, and more improved shoes...

Marathoner and Podcaster Tina Muir on Running's Meaning in Our Lives
Fueling The Pursuit
11/03/21 • 56 min
“I think running is a vehicle for conversations, which we've learned with Running Realized. But also, it is a way that runners get stuff done. We are determined, and focused, and committed. And so I think there's a lot of potential there for our community."
Today's guest is Tina Muir, former elite marathoner and host of the Running for Real and Running Realized podcasts.
Today’s episode with Tina was special for a few reasons. One - Tina has become a very important voice in the running community. So we feel very lucky to spend time with her to chat about her journey as a runner and how the sport fits into her life today. And two - I’m having this conversation solo. My co-host, Bryan Green, couldn’t join us because he’s in another time zone over in Sendai, Japan. (Don’t worry Bryan, I got this!)
Lessons and tips seem to just roll off the top of her head as she speaks about her running experiences. Our exploration of the meaning of running in her life today and the role goals can play in your own running are what stand out for me from our chat. There are plenty of opportunities for you to get to know Tina as a mother, runner and activist through her two podcast shows, Running for Real and Running Realized.
In this one-on-one conversation, I hope you’ll discover something meaningful that helps you enjoy your running just a little bit more. Oh, and if you’re running the New York City Marathon, Tina will be there running the race too!
Show Notes:
(4:11) New York City Marathon and a 50K...
(6:32) Handling transitions in running and life...
(11:27) Stressing yourself out for stress sake...
(14:00) “I love where I'm at right now, and it is very much anti-goals, in a lot of ways.”
(18:37) “I promise you there is a way of doing special things--especially if you've got years of training under your belt--without that intensity, that, yes, sucks away so much of the enjoyment of the process.”
(21:14) Why the longer distances?
(26:25) Remembering what community is like...
(27:45) The great conversations in Running For Real and Running Realized...
(33:08) “Not everyone has to be as fired up about climate action as I am. But runners have the opportunity to pick something that is meaningful to them and really make change happen.”
(35:33) What are Together Runs?
(39:05) Being a mom of two girls...
(47:39) What’s one piece of advice you would share with your audience?

Boston & Beyond: Panel Discussion on Training, Fueling, and Staying Inspired
Fueling The Pursuit
05/24/22 • 86 min
"One thing that really stood out to me early was someone said, "Be where your feet are." If it's hard to think, like one moment at a time, be exactly where your feet are. Be there. When you put your phone down, stop scrolling IG, and you sit with your family and watch the movie...literally be there. If you can do that, I feel like we'll all be happier." --Tommie Runz
This is a special episode featuring UCAN's Boston Marathon panel discussion with some of the most inspirational and accomplished runners in the world today.
The discussion was hosted by Olympian Carrie Tollefson and Marathon Training Academy Podcast Host Angie Spencer.

- Meb Keflezighi, Boston Marathon Champion, 4x U.S. Olympian
- Emily Sisson, 2020 U.S. Olympian, Pro Runner
- Emma Bates, 2nd Place at 2021 Chicago Marathon, Pro Runner
- Tommie Runz, First Time Boston Marathon Runner
This discussion is packed with helpful insights that can help you up your game. All of the panelists talk about the mindset they had that helped them successfully navigate the past few years with the pandemic. They also talk about their current training situations and how they’re preparing for some of the big races on their 2022 calendars.
If you ran the Boston Marathon or plan on running it next year, you’ll love the stories they share about their experiences running the Boston Marathon and tips to run it well. And of course, they share how they fuel with UCAN and why they love it so much.
