Last week episode of No Meat Athlete Radio was all about . This week we're exploring the other big improvement runners desire ... running farther. Let's face it, a new distance is intimidating. Each new mile is uncharted territory. How will it affect your body and mind? Do you need to eat or drink more while on the run? And how on Earth do you make time for all the training? Our goal with today's episode is not only to answer those common questions, but provide you with a better understanding of how you can start running farther, and achieving your goals.

I did it. But it wasn't easy. In today's episode, Doug and I discuss the common mistakes that keep runners from improving their running speed, and what steps and workouts will actually make you faster.

Runner's World, Deena Kastor, and How to Choose Between The Things You Love

Doug and I spent last weekend at the Runner's World Half and Festival in Bethlehem, PA. The races, people, and events were a total blast, but what stood out to both of us the most was a lunch chat with Deena Kastor. During that chat she talked about her struggle between juggling a career as an elite runner, and being a mother. In today's episode, we discuss our own struggles between balancing the things we love, and what we can learn from Deena's approach.
