The Rambling Runner

Jason Fitzgerald, the host of the top rated Strength Running Podcast, is back on the show! Jason has been on the show several times to talk about the importance of strength training, improving as an athlete, and the various ways becoming stronger can help runners achieve their goals. In today's episode, Jason and I discuss some different and exciting topics. First we dive into the occasional imposter syndrome that can overcome runners as they try to take up strength training for the first time and do so at a gym. Then we talk about how lifting heavy as a sport in its own right, even if someone has been doing it for years, doesn't have to be at odds with being a better runner. We've seen an influx of people get into running inspired by Nick Bare, Cameron Haynes, OCR athletes, and the like and it's an exciting expansion to our sport. We also talk about how runners should approach lifting heavy when they've never done it before. You can learn more about Jason at https://strengthrunning.com. Sponsors: This episo
