Hey Running Friends!

Struggling to lace up those running shoes with consistency? The internal and external barriers we may have need to be identified, and then we can come up with strategies to overcome them. For older runners, time scarcity, waning motivation, and the ever-present fatigue can hold us back.

Sometimes we don't know why we are having a hard time getting out there, and you just need someone to prompt you to figure it out. Check out the resource section for a quiz you can take which will show you what may be a barrier.

Hi Running Friends!

For those of us older runners, there are some nutrients that we need to pay attention to. This episode talks more about what we need in general, rather than running specific fueling, but the same things also enhance our runner bodies.

Essential Amino Acids with Dr. Wolfe
Fueling for the Runner

Real Food for Runners - check out the recipes in the description (which are also videos), they are different than the recipes below

Recipes for the Nutrients in the Episode:
Phytonutrients- This is a list of recipes from the Cornell Cooperative Extension
Protein- A list of 5 recipes that are high in Protein, and developed for athletes so there are a good amount of carbs in there, too
Calcium- This isn’t a recipe, but if you cook up a bunch of baby bok choi, you will get in a load of calcium without having to drink milk (which I hate)
Vitamin D- Roast Salmon with Lentils
Omega 3 Fats- Chia Seed Pudding

Hey Running Friends!

As I lace up my running shoes and set out on the tranquil paths of Buffalo's Forest Lawn Cemetery, I can't help but feel surrounded by history. It's a place where the peaceful rest of icons like Rick James and President Millard Fillmore merges with the living pulse of runners seeking solitude and reflection.

I share guidelines for runners to engage with the cemetery's beauty and tranquility responsibly, by honoring unspoken rules and the explicit ones. Doing a bit of homework ensures we safeguard the privilege of their use, keeping the paths open for our reflective runs.
