ReBuild - 
  • I’ve started taking online ballet lessons for the first time since taking lessons for a few years as a child. I’m noticing a huge improvement in my glute activation and reduction in my overall pain levels in my back and hips!! Is there anything I need to be cognizant of when doing this to make I don’t cause any negative impacts on my running?
  • Hi Coach, I’ve been noticing that I have difficultly with getting my knees to track straight over my toes when I squat. Is there anything I can to help this?
  • If I’m coming from maintain are there any adaptations I need to make to the rebuild plan for pregnancy?
  • Hello! I’m noticing as I extend my longer run (over an hour or so) that my mid/upper back (around my ribs)and shoulders are fatiguing as I go longer and then everything kinda starts falling apart. Will this get better with time as I get more used to longer times or do I need to do some kind of specific strength to improve it?
Maintain
  • My body has only been wanting to do avacado toast lately. What am I sacrificing by not doing the harder efforts? Would I still be able to run a marathon in 10 weeks as long as I don’t have a time goal?
  • I’ve been struggling with motivation to get out on my run. I look forward to my runs, once I’m running i really enjoy it so I don’t know what give. Any thoughts or suggestions to make the process of starting less awful?
  • How do I keep my heart rate down in this awful humidity? It’s like 80-90% here.
Build
  • Is it okay to run on an empty stomach? How soon after a run do we meet to eat?
  • Can the time of day that you run affect your heart rate readings?
  • If I do silly toes and warm ups at home, then drive 15 minutes to a park for my run, is my warm up not as effective?
