2026/10/17 | 1h 13 mins.Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us!
On this episode, the boys had on special guest Jake Smith! Jake is a professional runner for Nike out of the UK based out of Cardiff. Jake has an amazing story and we are so grateful he was able to share it with us on this pod.
Early on in his career, Jake running a stunning 60:31 half marathon, making him one of the fastest Brits all time. Shortly after- he found himself training in Uganda with the 5k and 10k world record holder Joshua Cheptegei. Jake had an eating disorder, was training extremely hard, and ended up developing RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport).
He had to completely overhaul everything he knew about fueling and training. It took years of patience and work, but Jake is now healthy and thriving in his new system. He walks us through how he fuels and trains now + recapped his breakthrough performance at Berlin, going sub 2:10 for the first time in the marathon.
Enjoy!

On this episode, the boys had on special guest Cam Hanes! Cam is the host of Keep Hammering Collective podcast, and is widely known for his hunting and running experiences. He has so many stories from a very full life and from meeting so many inspiring people through his show, it was great to hear some of those on this episode.
We talked about Cam’s running journey and how it correlates directly to him being a bowhunter. We also got into some hunting talk, where Cam explained his love for hunting and how he views it.
Of course his son, Truett, just had an awesome race at the Chicago Marathon so we touched on what he thinks Truett is capable of + what he has learned in his journey as a dad.

2026/10/12 | 49 mins.Visit lisrunning.com to be coached by us!
On this episode, the boys did a pro recap of the Chicago Marathon! What a race this was - despite slightly warm temps the race was still very fast up front and exciting!
We started talking about the women’s overall race where Hawi Feysa defended her title over Sharon Lokedi! The American women were led by Emma Grace Hurley’s debut in a stunning 2:20 time, the fastest debut ever by an American!
On the men’s side, Amos Kipruto turned the tables on defending champ and favorite Jacob Kiplimo, running the 5th fastest time all time in 2:01 low! We spent a lot of time covering the men’s American race, which was highly anticipated and definitely lived up to the hype. Vinny Mauri made a bold move around halfway but suffered cramps late, and veteran Clayton Young was able to take advantage and secure top American!
