    On this episode, the boys had some fun banter! We started off with some non-running talk and tried to figure out how they built the pyramids. 

    Once we dove into running - we chatted how takes on electrolytes, Danny brought some interesting Zone 1 training information to the table, and we all gave our reviews on the Dynafish Xiaonian super trainers! 

    We capped off the pod talking about some training and Scotty gave updates on how his injured calf is doing. Enjoy!

    #355 Megan Connolly - Qualifying for the Olympic Trials Marathon as a Mom + WWE Announcer

    2026/08/12 | 1h 16 mins.
    Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us!

    On this episode, the boys had on special guest Megan Connolly! Megan qualified for the Olympic Trials earlier this year at the Mckirdy Micro OTQ Marathon, and will be on the start line at the trials in St. Louis!

    Megan achieved this while balancing life as a mom and having a busy job. We talked through her weekly schedule and how she has been able to get the necessary training in! 

    Megan’s job is being an announcer/media personality for the WWE. She has a radio show, hosts podcasts, and interviews wrestlers! This means she travels a lot and has different hours than the standard 9-5. It was cool to hear about her unique job and when she finds time to make training work!

    Enjoy!

    #353 - How to Break 5 in the Mile, Clayton Young’s Advice, Training Updates + Midwest Runners are Toughest Debate

    2026/08/08 | 1h 1 mins.
    Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us!

    On this episode, the boys had a surprise banter episode due to a time confusion with it guest and it turned out to be a pretty good episode! We gave training updates and Chris also shared the achilles advice he indirectly received from Clayton Young.

    We did a bit of Midwest states trivia and debated more if Midwest runners are the toughest runners. Danny brought a case study to the podcast - he has a friend trying to break 5 in the mile but can only run 20 miles a week. Much more fun topics - enjoy!

    #352 Taggart VanEtten - Common Mistakes in Marathon Builds, Best All-Around Trainers, Breaking the Injury Cycle

    2026/08/06 | 1h 8 mins.
    Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us!

    On this episode, the boys had on our good friend Taggart VanEtten! Taggart is the 100 mile world record holder on the treadmill and a 2:21 marathoner out of Morton, IL. We caught up on Taggart’s recent training/racing and what is next for him! He recently broke a long injury cycle, dealing with his low back. Currently, he is training at 80-90 mile weeks while incorporating a lot of Zwift cycling.

    The back half of the episode we talked about some hot/relevant topics in running! This included if Josh Kerr or Sawe’s record was more impressive, what shoe we would wear if we could only wear one in a marathon build, and common mistakes in marathon training. Enjoy!
