0:00-02:10 Welcome and Episode Introduction

02:10-The Meat and Potatoes

02:10 -Question 1 from Brett: I tend to succumb to injuries with the required running mileage in a leadup to IRONMAN and IRONMAN 70.3. I have heard you talk about the multisport approach for run performance and I\\u2019m a bit skeptical. I\\u2019d love insights on how I might think about these coming months into race day to help me arrive healthily, but also race-ready.

13:12 - Question 2 from Carol: Any tips on helping my child get the most out of her running potential?

22:11 - Question 3 from Van: I\\u2019m coming back from a fractured tibia and I still feel residual pain and discomfort in the area, mostly to the touch but not during exercise. Is that relatively normal on the return from running?

29:22 - Question 4 from Theo: I feel like my heart rate is much higher than most people. When I\'m doing a very easy effort, my heart rate will still read 165-175, even creep up to 180. My max heart rate is just under 200. And so my question is, when it comes to zone two running, or easy, long runs, should I really be forcing myself to stay in what is calculated as zone two? I\'m 29 years old. Or, is it okay to stay out of that range and go a little bit more off of perceived exertion?

36:58 - Question 5 from Alice: What do you do when you\'re on the niggle bus? And by that, I mean, constantly wrestling with minor pre-injuries?
