Episode 126. Just Wait A Minute

Sometimes all it takes to set a day straight or a run right is a minute. But you'll need the strength and confidence to wait a minute and reset or refresh or retry or redo. I did just that today. Because I needed to tell myself to just wait a minute and take that minute to recharge. So, take 30 minutes here and now and listen to the latest episode of Coach Bennett's Podcast before you head out for a recovery run or long run or fartlek run or decide to start running again after a race or an injury or a training cycle.  

Cheers and thank you for listening!

How To Have A Better Race 30 Oct 202500:40:06

Episode 125. How To Have A Better Race 

This is a special one. Because it's episode 125! And because running a race is special. And because we have Coach Bennett the Greater as a guest. That's right! Tammie Bennett of the Show Up Society is back! And this is also a special episode because you all asked for an episode on what you could do before race day and on the starting line on race day and on the other side of that starting line on race day so you have a better chance to run a better race. Well, you asked and this episode delivers. And yes, this episode is about running and this episode is not about running. Thank you so much to Tammie and thank you so much to all of you for listening and sharing this episode and this sport with so many. 

I appreciate you all. 

Cheers,

Coach Bennett

Goals: How To Set, Change, Drop and Achieve Them21 Aug 202500:36:15

Episode 116: Goals: How To Set, Change, Drop and Achieve Them

It's always a great time to talk about goals. And when you talk about goals you need to talk about more than how to set them. You need to know how to change and adjust goals and how to drop goals too. Big goals. Little goals. Medium sized goals. Long term goals. Short term goals. We cover it all. So, enjoy the show and please know that one of my goals in making this episode was to help you have a better chance achieving all of your goals for having listened to it. 

Cheers,

What I Learned From Running 2000 Days In A Row30 Nov 202301:03:49

Episode 26:  What I Learned From Running 2000 Days In A Row

This one was... well, 2000 days in the making. What started as an attempt to get more consistent has become something I'm really proud of and at the same time something that I'm okay with ending... if it ever becomes just a streak.

This episode is all about what I've learned over the last 5 1/2 years running every... single.. day. Hope you enjoy the episode and maybe even get inspired to go for a run yourself. Cheers and thank you for listening.

Super Special Bonus Episode: NXN 28 Nov 202300:41:02

Bonus Episode:  Super Special NXN Episode!

NXN (NIKE Cross Nationals) is my favorite race. Period. It's my favorite.

NXN is the US high school XC nationals championships. The 22 best girls teams and 50 best individuals meet in Portland, Oregon to all take the same starting line and race for the glory. The 22 best boys teams and 50 best individuals meet in Portland, Oregon to all take the same starting line and race for the glory.

Two starting lines. Two races. But so much more than that is going on. And this episode my attempt to share a little history about the meet but more importantly what is going on during the race so YOU can watch the race and fully enjoy the pure epicness (is that a real word?) that is NXN.

If you run... then you need to listen to this episode. Because you should be a fan of this race and these young athletes. They will inspire you and motivate you. And NXN is a badass celebration of our sport.

Here are some GREAT links for you to further enjoy NXN:

Mindset Matters: All About Racing09 Nov 202300:56:13

Episode 23. Mindset Matters: All About Racing
 
Do we have a special episode for you? Oh baby yes! We've got Mindset Coach Extraordinaire tammie bennett (she loves lower case letters) of The Show Up Society. We asked for questions last week and you responded with so many questions we literally had to delay this episode because it took too long to record and edit and upload.  That's my way of blaming you for this dropping episode late and also celebrating you for making this episode a reality. So, sit back... or run with with this... or walk with it.... or sit in traffic with this fantastic episode. And thank you for listening!

Could You Be A Runnerd?02 Nov 202300:43:19

Episode 22.  Could You Be A Runnerd?

This episode was inspired by a Coach Bennett's Newsletter from September 2023 that was inspired by an Instagram post I wrote in 2015.  And after feedback from the readers of the newsletter asking for more information about runnerdism I finally caved and... well... here we are.

This episode will not only define what a Runnerd  actually is but will also celebrate what it means to be a runnerd and even give some background on Coach Bennett's journey from an adorable and wildly charismatic kid to a handsome and wildly charismatic runnerd.  So, calling all runnerds! Get ready to listen to an episode that is all about you and your passion and your love. It's about you. Because you nerd out about running and that is glorious because that makes you a runnerd!

Hope you love the episode and thank you for listening!

Cheers,
Coach Bennett

Race Day05 Oct 202300:53:44

Ep. 18 Race Day. 

Coach Bennett guides you through the 24 hours BEFORE your race. You'll learn how Coach Bennett set up his athletes for the best chance to be successful once they crossed the starting line by making sure everything they did during the day leading up to that starting... set them up top be successful.

It's about alarm clocks and dinner plans. It's about reservations and breakfast. It's about packing bags and making checklists. It's about sleeping masks and extra rolls of toilet paper. It's about more comfort and less stress. It's about so much more.

And it's about more than a race because all the advice, tips, and earned wisdom that Coach Bennett shares during the episode can be used for a big day or an important meeting or a presentation or exam.

Because this is about running... and this is not about running.

Some links for you to freak out about (freak out in a good way):

Get Out Of Your Own Way14 Aug 202500:33:00

Episode 115. Get Out Of Your Own Way

We all do it. We self-sabotage. We trip ourselves up. We set ourselves up for something less than success. Well, this episode is all about ways we can get out of our own ways so we can run ourselves somewhere better without the self-destructive hurdles and barriers we place in front of ourselves. 

And obviously you need to listen to Go Your Own Way by Fleetwood Mac. And because my brain decides to simply go rogue here is Don't Stop by Fleetwood Mac too. Don't worry... after the episode you'll understand. 

And if you want to check out the glorious dive bar that also has the worlds best fried chicken you need to check out 'REEL M'INN TAVERN

What You Need To Start28 Sep 202300:50:40

Ep. 17:  What You Need To Start

This is episode is for everyone. Because this episode is about what you need to start, start over, or start running again. And I bet you'll be surprised that it's less than you thought and that you have more of what you need than you think. This is a good one... so get ready to be inspired and motivated and excited. We've also got another Mindset Minute with coach tammie of The Show Up Society and we even break out the mail bag again for a really moving letter from the UK.

Thank you for listening... and for subscribing to the podcast... and for sharing the podcast with everyone you know... and for leaving a great comment so the one comment that the guy left about me rambling too much gets diminished by your rave 5 star review... and thank you for listening to the same podcast episodes not once but two or three or four times.

How Being A Better Teammate Makes You A Better Runner.22 Sep 202300:48:37

Episode 16: How Being A Better Teammate Makes You A Better Runner.

They can be your greatest source of strength or your greatest weakness. Teammates. And if you want to be the best you can be out there on the roads and trails and track and off them as well... then you need to be the best teammate you can be to others and to yourself. Coach Bennett breaks down why becoming a better teammate leads to better running. There is also our first  Mindset Minute with Mindset Coach tammie bennett (yes, she still loves lower case letters) and some talk about the Pre Classic and the Sea Hear Now Festival where Coach Bennett rocked his proverbial socks off. This is not only an important episode... it's a really important episode. Is that redundant?
Yes. But it's still true and it's true.

Cheers and thank you for listening... and sharing... and subscribing!

Let Your Effort Lead Your Run24 Aug 202300:37:44

012. Let Your Effort Lead Your Run

On this episode of Coach Bennett's Podcast it's almost all about effort. Because there is actually more than just effort that's talked about! The Coach Bennett Jersey Shore Running Tour is in full effect, the phrase "home is where the heart is" is broken down, there's even a hint that wings and pizza will be spoken about (be prepared to be let down... Coach forgets to talk about both wings and pizza) and then of course... the topic of effort is discussed.

Enjoy the episode and thank you for listening!

The Speed Run17 Aug 202300:49:09

011. The Speed Run. Ready... set... GO! It's time to talk about the speed run! That's right. It's scary. It's fast. It's wild. It's challenging. It's exciting. It's fartlek, long intervals, hills, tempo runs, and short intervals. It's all the Speed Run! And the speed run is about more than just the speed run. It's about the warm up and the stretching and the drills and the strides and... the recovery. But more than anything the speed run should be about fun. So join Coach Bennett and learn about the infinite variety of ways you can get faster and have fun doing it. Hope you enjoy and thank you for listening!

The Recovery Run10 Aug 202300:57:32

010. The Recovery Run.  It's also known as the easy run. And it's the most important run of them all. Why? Maybe it's because it's the run you do more than any other. Maybe it's because if you can nail the recovery run you will have a better chance at nailing all the other kinds of runs. Maybe it's because of what the dictionary defines as recovery. Maybe you just need to listen to Coach Bennett's Podcast to find out.

The Long Run 03 Aug 202301:01:40

009. The Long Run. Those three words inspire a whole host of different feelings for different people.  And that's why Episode 9 is dedicated to... The Long Run. What is a long run? Why do we do long runs? How can we make them better... less boring... greater fun...  and more challenging? I hope you're not expecting me to answer all those questions here! That's what the podcast is for. And in an odd coincidence The Long Run episode just happens to be the longest Coach Bennett's Podcast... so far. Hope you enjoy the show and thank you for listening... and for sharing the podcast... and thank you for subscribing... and for rating and reviewing the show.

Embrace Your Weaknesses27 Jul 202300:43:08

008. Embrace your weaknesses. That's right! Get in close and give all those weaknesses of yours a great big squeezy hug. Don't ignore those weaknesses of yours. Don't pretend they don't exist. And don't put them in a corner with baby because nobody puts baby in a corner.  And if you can embrace your weaknesses you can own them, you can know them, you can learn about them,  you can work on them. And you will get better as a result. Not just at running either. This is about running... and this is not about running. Join Coach Bennett on this episode and learn why Embrace Your Weaknesses has always been a part of his coaching philosophy. Enjoy the show. Episode 8 is great.

PS. Attention Swifties... Taylor Swift is and her concert in Seattle is discussed. Don't worry... TS gets lauded.

Recovery On The Run 07 Aug 202500:38:01

Episode 114. Recovery On The Run

You've probably heard me say that great running dependent on great recovery. Well, it's the truth. And if you can recover great and do that consistently you're going to give yourself the best chance to run great. So, listen up. Because this episode is all about how you can recover better and recover better consistently. None of the things I talk about in this episode are recovery techniques that you can't start taking advantage of today. Because almost everything I talk about in this episode you are probably already doing! I'm just going to tell you how you can do it all a little better. And if you can recover a little better consistently and in a whole bunch of different ways... well, you're going to experiencing some great recovery. And you know what depends on great recovery?

Get Fast31 Jul 202500:28:20

Episode 113. Get Fast

Buckle up buttercup! Because we're about to go fast talking about getting fast. I do my best to rip through this episode... fast. That means the rambling on this episode may not be non-existent but it's sure not excessive. And yes, it was not easy for me to not ramble. It's also not easy for me to not write sentences with double negatives. I digress. Sit back or start it up... no matter how your listening to the show or what you're doing while you listen to the show... I hope you enjoy the episode. And I hope you end the episode knowing a few ways you can get faster. 

Cheers,

Coach Bennett

5 Ways To Build Confidence24 Jul 202500:26:30

Episode 112. 5 Ways To Build Confidence

Being confident takes work. And that means that confidence is something that can be built up, grown, maintained. That also means that confidence is something that can be torn down, weakened, atrophy. So, we're going to discuss a few ways that you can work on and build confidence. I know I named this episode 5 Ways To Build Confidence but I'm not entirely sure how many ways I actually talk about. I feel like it's more than 5 though. Anyway, it's a great episode and you're a great person so it seems like you and the episode should get together. I'm confident you're going to enjoy it. 

Cheers,

Coach Bennett

Setbacks (How To Deal With Them)17 Jul 202500:30:30

Episode 111. Setbacks (How To Deal With Them)

It's inevitable. If you show up consistently... if you chase after great goals... if you get better and want to get better... if you try your best... you're going to need to deal with setbacks. How you deal with those setbacks will help decide just how consistent you'll continue to be and whether you'll chase down those goals or not and whether you'll get better and better and if you'll get closer to your best. So, let's talk setbacks. Shall we? We shall!

Risk and Reward10 Jul 202500:40:35

Episode 110. Risk and Reward.

Some risks can lead to great rewards. Some rewards are not worth the risks. Whether you realize it or not every run and race you do and rest day you take has risks and rewards associated with them. This episode is all about the relationship between the two. This episode was inspired by the mile run by Faith Kipyegon in her Breaking 4 attempt and the 1500m race run by Jessica Hull at the Prefontaine Classic the following week. Enjoy the episode and be sure to check out the links to both those races in the show notes below. 

Cheers and thank you for listening.

It's OK To Not Be OK03 Jul 202500:33:50

Episode 109. It's OK To Not Be OK

It's OK to be OK. It's OK to not be OK. But it's not OK to say you're OK when you're not OK. And it sounds like a lot of you are not OK. The good thing is that you are reaching out to me and admitting that you're not OK. That takes honesty and strength. Both of those things help you when it comes to running by the way. You're also reaching out and asking for some help. (Asking for help is another sign or strength.)

That's why I'm doing this episode. And if you are OK... this episode is for you too. Because even though this time you are OK there will be some times when you are not OK. So, this episode will help for those times. OK? 

Let me tell you this, too. If you can deal with negative (and positive) stressors in your life better then you will run better. More importantly, you'll live better. And if you were wondering... yes, this episode is about running. And this episode is not about running. 

Cheers and thank you for listening.

How To Slow Down (So You Can Speed Up)26 Jun 202500:33:53

Episode 108. How To Slow Down (So You Can Speed Up)

Sometimes you need to slow down so you can speed up. Yes, it makes sense. And it's true. In fact, it's essential to understand if you want to get better at this fantastic sport. That's why we're going to talk about it on this episode. You'll learn why it's important and how to do it just by listening to the show. Pretty good deal if you ask me. So, sit back or stand up or go for a walk or a run and enjoy the podcast. And yes, this episode is about running and this is not about running.  Thank you for listening!

7 Ways To Make Your Running More Fun19 Jun 202500:27:50

Episode 107. 7 Ways To Make Your Running More Fun

It doesn't matter how fast or how far you can run. There's always an opportunity to make your running more fun. And if you can make your running more fun then you can make your running better and if you can make your running better then you can make the runner doing that running better. That was definitely a run on sentence. But I hope it was easy to understand. Because if you can figure out how to get better and have fun getting better then you can get better... and better... and better. 

Cheers,

Coach Bennett

Moving On23 Oct 202500:37:37

Episode 124. Moving On

Sometimes the hardest part of a running a race isn't the race. And sometimes it's not even the training you need to do so you can run race that race. Sometimes the hardest part is after the race. It's letting go. It's moving on. We can give so much to a training cycle. We can put so much into the journey. We can invest so much into race day and the outcome. We can suddenly find ourselves lost and adrift when it's all over. This episode is about acknowledging all of this. And it's about how you can handle the process of moving on so you can move forward. Yes, this is about running. And this is not about running. 

Cheers and thank you for listening!

I Believe12 Jun 202500:31:35

Episode 106.  I Believe. 

I figured it was time that I told you what I believe in. Especially, since I believe in you! But this is episode goes old school. There was once a time when seven statements I wrote on a cheap legal pad became the foundation for NRC... and how so may of us (including me) look at ourselves and support ourselves and cheer for ourselves. YOU deserve the best if you are trying your best.

Happy Global Running Day05 Jun 202500:28:00

Episode 105.  Happy Global Running Day

Sure, this episode may be dropping the day after Global Running Day in many parts of the world... the sentiment remains true. Happy Global Running Day! I'm taking the opportunity to state what it means to be a runner and how we can best acknowledge and experience and what it means to be a part of this sport. So, press play and turn up the volume and get ready to celebrate, share and save the sport on Global Running Day 2025... or the day after Global Running Day 2025... or really whatever day you are actually listening to this episode.

7 Ways To Make Your Summer Running Better29 May 202500:31:00

Episode 104.  7 Ways To Make Your Summer Running Better

This could actually be 5 or 6 or maybe even 8 or 9 ways. I'm not exactly sure. I kind of went into a zone there for a little while and when I came out of it the episode was done. Doesn't really matter. What does matter is that by the end of the episode you're going to know a whole bunch of different ways you can make your summer running better! And that's a good thing! So, enjoy the episode and thank you for listening.

How To Do More15 May 202500:36:20

Episode 102. How To Do More

So, you want to know how to do more? I get it. More is better, right? Well, maybe. Maybe not. That's why before we decide what we need to do more of (or less of) we need to have a conversation. And that's what this episode is... a conversation. I'll give you a series of questions that you need to ask and answer  before you decide what you need to do more of. If you're an athlete then this is an essential episode. And if you have a body you're an athlete. This is also an essential episode for all you coaches out there. And if you have a heart then you are a coach. So, this is an episode for everyone. Yes, that mean you.

Coach Bennett

Searching For Balance08 May 202500:38:01

Episode 101. Searching For Balance. 

We're all searching for some balance in our lives and in our running. But I don't think there's such a thing as perfect balance. I believe we're just trying to balance all our imbalances as best as we can. And that's what this episode is all about. If we can look from a different and more supportive point of view and give a little more grace and have a little more empathy towards out own balancing acts we're going to have a better chance of maintaining that balance. So, enjoy the podcast and get ready for some unicycle talk. Pretty sure it's the first time I've talked about a unicycle.

You Gotta Have Faith 24 Apr 202500:30:59

Episode 99. You Gotta Have Faith 

It was announced today that Faith Kipyegon is going to try and break 4 in the Mile this Summer in Paris. What was that? I said that Faith Kipyegon has committed to trying to run under 4 minutes for a mile in June. You read that right, twice. 

This episode is about Faith and faith and Breaking 4 (that's what this is being called) and Breaking 2 and Eliud Kipchoge and this episode is about you and me and goals and confidence and failure and success and courage and Prince and George Michael. It's a great episode. Do you believe me? I guess you just need to have some faith. 

Cheers ank thank you for listening to the show!

This wasn't what I had originally planned for this episode. But sometimes the best plan is a different plan than what was originally planned. So, I listened to all of you and recorded the episode you all needed to hear and not the episode I wanted to make. I hope you enjoy this little pep talk. And to be honest... I think I needed it just as much if not more than any of you. 

Thank you for listening to and sharing Coach Bennett's Podcast.
