    I Got Almost Everything Wrong at My First Marathon. The One Thing I Did Right Saved Me From a 26.2-Mile Train Wreck (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    My first marathon, on an unseasonably cold fall morning nearly a decade ago, still feels like a fever dream. I remember sitting alone in my car in the dark with the heat blasting, rain pounding the windshield, and my knees up on the steering wheel as I sipped gas-station coffee and Glacier Cherry Gatorade with a hundred-yard stare. When I finally dragged myself out of the car to make my way toward the starting line, I considered the exceptional cruelty of the universe for denying me a prerace po

    Research Suggests That Eating Blueberries Can Make You Faster. Here’s What I Learned From a Week of “Berry-Doping” (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    “Berry-doping” was certainly not on my 2026 bingo card … but there’s evidence it may deserve a square in 2027. In a small study* published in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism, researchers found that blueberries provided a modest performance aid for running. The study involved nine trail runners, two time trials, a battery of pre- and post-race physiological tests, and quite a few blueberries. And the results were pretty clear: Participants saw overall improvem

    Training Too Much or Fueling Too Little? A Run Coach and Dietitian Explains How to Find the Cause of Your Fatigue (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Fatigue plays a part in long-distance running and racing, but it shouldn’t be the overall theme of your training. If it starts showing up regularly, finding you on every workout and easy run, and hanging on your heels like a competitor that you just can’t shake, you’re likely dealing with an energy imbalance in your training. In short, you’re asking your body to do more work than it has the resources to support. The solution doesn’t come from pushing through the fatigue. Instead, you’ll want to

    Heat Derailed Your Summer Running Routine? This 4-Week Comeback Plan Gets You Ready for Fall Running (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Whether you’re eager for the cooler months ahead or sad the year’s hottest days are behind us, there’s no denying this summer was a scorcher. And if you’re a runner who does their best to dodge the heat and humidity, you might not have gotten in all the miles you wanted over the past few months. Even if you didn’t run much (or at all!) this summer, you can still rebuild your fitness in time for the best running season of the year (in our opinion!). As the air cools and you feel the hype and moti

    When My Run Feels Hard, I Focus on This Metric. An Exercise Scientist Explains Why It Makes Your Miles Feel Easier. (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    One of my favorite movie quotes from The Emperor’s New Groove is when Emperor Kuzco shrieks, “You threw off my groove!” at a villager who accidentally bumps into him. Because lately, that’s exactly how I’ve been feeling when I start my easy runs. I’ll head out for my usual jog, and it will feel stupidly hard for no reason. My stride is awkward, disjointed, a little stiff—and I just can’t seem to get going. In short, my groove is thrown off. Way off. So, in my attempt to get it back, I’ve tried a
