Running Rogue

We continue our journey through chapter 2 of the book, taking our time here on some of the fundamentals. In this episode, we cover the first 3 of our racing fundamentals. How do you approach racing to get the most out of yourself?  As a reminder, you can get the book via the links in our instagram bio (@roguerunning), and if you want to check out our training options, go to www.roguerunning.com. We have a lot of groups restarting here in the new year for those racing in April to June.

We continue our march through the fundamentals of our training principles. First, this episode starts with a few notes on the subtitle to our book - Elite Training Accessible to All. What does that mean? And why does it mean that ANYONE can use the principles in the book and in our training philosophy b/c we are all human. Then, we turn to the final 3 principles on the training side of our philosophy - perfect as we start the new year. Happy 2026 everyone!

It's finally here. A book that captures 21 years of Rogue, run-coaching philosophy in 450+ pages. It's everything we know about helping people do things in this sport that they never thought possible. It's about the X's and O's of running, but it's also about how to use running to unlock resilience and grit and mental fortitude that will translate to race day and then far beyond. It's for the front and back of the pack and everyone in between - truly. If you put one foot in front of the other at any "degree of fast," then this is for you. It's your blueprint to take ownership of your running and propel you to the next level. We hope you read it and then come back to specific chapters again and again. It's grounded in the absolute fundamentals, nothing flashy, and backed by science and tested on thousands of athletes over the last 21 years. It's dedicated to every single one of you who has ever trusted us with your goals, whether as a Rogue member or as a podcast listener. In the words of Coach Chris, "If running is my passion project, then this is a love letter to it for you." So much gratitude to Dr Jafar Abunasser, THE Allison Macsas Steger, & Coach James Dodds for making it a reality. Links below if you'd like to purchase a copy. a.
