What if your biggest breakthrough came years after you thought your competitive running career was behind you?
This week onRUNWITHALLI LIVE, I'm joined by Alana Levy, my fellow Horace Greeley High School alum, a 2028 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials qualifier, and one of New York City's top marathoners. Alana is a Product Manager by trade, an incredible human, and someone who proves that your best running may still be ahead of you.
After stepping away from competitive running following college, Alana never imagined she'd eventually qualify for the Olympic Trials. Yet through years of consistency, patience, and trusting the process, she progressed from a 2:59 marathon to a 2:48, then a 2:40, and ultimately a 2:34 marathon to earn her first Olympic Trials qualifier. All while working full-time.
In this episode, we dive into what it takes to balance ambition, career, and elite performance without losing sight of why you started running in the first place.
WHAT WE COVER:

Alana's story is proof that progress doesn't have an expiration date. She is far from slowing down and continues to inspire me, and I know she'll inspire many of you listening as well!
Fun fact: I was the captain of our varsity swim team, and Alana was the track star when we graduated from Horace Greeley High School in Chappaqua, New York, in 2007. Nearly two decades later, our paths have crossed again through running and the incredible community this sport creates. It truly is one of my favorite parts of running and how it has a way of bringing people back together. And no, we are NOT old!
FINAL THOUGHTS
Whether you're chasing your first marathon, hoping to qualify for Boston, balancing training around work and family, or simply wondering if your best running is still ahead of you, this conversation is a reminder that consistency compounds, patience pays off, and extraordinary results often come much later than we expect.

In this episode of RUNWITHALLI LIVE, I sit down with sports psychologist Haley Perlus to explore the mental skills that help runners thrive both in training and on race day.
While many athletes search for the perfect workout, Dr. Perlus reminds us that lasting progress starts with mastering our mindset.
One of the biggest themes from this conversation? Patience.
As runners, we often expect immediate results from our training. We want the breakthrough workout, the PR, and the confidence boost now. But meaningful growth both physically and mentally takes time.
Dr. Perlus shares practical strategies for developing patience, building confidence, and learning to perform under pressure.
WHAT WE COVER:
00:00 – Introduction & Welcome
00:30 – Meet Dr. Haley Perlus: Sports Psychologist & Performance Expert
01:30 – Why Mental Performance Matters for Runners
03:45 – Dr. Perlus' Journey into Sports Psychology
05:15 – Managing Self-Doubt, Injuries & Performance Plateaus
06:25 – How to Build Confidence Through Action
07:15 – Developing Tolerance for Doubt
09:25 – Using Data Without Becoming Controlled by It
10:25 – Balancing Mental Toughness with Self-Compassion
12:40 – Giving Yourself Grace vs. Letting Yourself Off the Hook
14:40 – Why Recovery Runs Require Mental Strength
17:50 – Moving Beyond All-or-Nothing Thinking
19:40 – The Power of A, B & C Goals
22:00 – "Pressure Is Not the Enemy, It's the Invitation"
23:10 – What Does This Moment Need From Me?
24:55 – Understanding Different Types of Motivation
26:10 – The Mindset Skills Every Runner Should Practice
29:45 – The One-Minute Mindset Technique
31:20 – Focusing on What You Can Control
33:00 – Why You Need to Train Your Mind Before Race Day
35:40 – Final Advice for Runners & Closing Thoughts
Key Takeaways
Confidence is earned through action.
Every workout completed, every challenge faced, and every small goal achieved provides evidence that you can do hard things.
Patience is a performance skill.
Mental fitness develops the same way physical fitness does: through repetition, consistency, and practice over time.
Doubt doesn't disappear at higher levels of performance.
The goal isn't to eliminate fear or uncertainty. It’s to build the ability to move forward despite them.
Pressure is information, not an enemy.
Learning to interpret pressure as a sign that something matters can transform your race-day experience.
Progress isn't all-or-nothing.
Missing one goal doesn't erase everything you accomplished along the way.
Memorable Quote
"The work isn't about getting rid of doubt. The work is developing your tolerance for it." — Dr. Haley Perlus
Final Thoughts
Whether you're training for your first 5K, chasing a marathon PR, or navigating a setback, remember that both physical and mental growth require patience.
Keep showing up. Trust the process. Give yourself grace, but, don’t let yourself off the hook!

In this episode of RUNWITHALLI LIVE, I sit down with ultrarunner, coach, content creator, and one of the original voices in online running, Sage Canaday.
From Division I running to Olympic Trials qualifying marathons, 100-mile trail races, coaching thousands of athletes, and building VO2 Max Productions, Sage shares one theme that kept resurfacing throughout our conversation:
Patience.
In a world obsessed with instant results, Sage reminds us that the best runners aren't built in weeks. They’re built over years.
Top Takeaways from Sage
1. Be Patient and Enjoy the Process
When asked what he would tell his younger self, Sage didn't talk about workouts, shoes, or race tactics.
He talked about patience.
As a young professional runner, he ramped his training quickly, running extremely high mileage early in his career. Looking back, he acknowledges that things could have gone very differently.
His advice: Enjoy the process. Don't rush the journey. Fitness takes time. Adaptation takes time. Great performances take time.
2. Think Long-Term, Not Workout-to-Workout
One of the most powerful themes of the episode was Sage's emphasis on long-term thinking.
He explained that runners often expect immediate fitness gains after starting a new workout, training block, or program.
Most adaptations take far longer than we think.
Rather than chasing quick results, focus on:
- Months instead of days
- Seasons instead of weeks
- Years instead of races
The athletes who continue improving are usually the ones willing to stay patient long enough to reap the rewards.
3. Consistency Beats One Good Workout
When discussing marathon improvement, Sage repeatedly returned to consistency.
Many runners look for the perfect workout.
Sage looks for:
- Consistent training
- Gradual progression
- Sustainable mileage
- Staying healthy
His philosophy is simple: A runner training consistently at 30 miles per week will often outperform the runner who constantly alternates between overtraining and injury.
4. More Isn't Always Better
One of Sage's biggest coaching lessons is that runners often try to do too much, too soon.
Whether it's:
- Increasing mileage too quickly
- Adding too much intensity
- Racing too frequently
The result is often the same: Injury, burnout, or both.
The key is earning the next level of training rather than forcing it.
5. Running Is a Lifelong Sport
After decades in the sport, Sage spoke candidly about aging, setbacks, injuries, and the reality that none of us are immune to change.
His perspective was refreshing: Running doesn't have to be about chasing PRs forever.
It can be about:
- Staying healthy
- Staying active
- Continuing to learn
- Remaining connected to the running community
Longevity matters.
6. Healing Requires Patience Too
Sage also shared his experience recovering from a significant injury.
Like many runners, he initially expected a quick return.
Instead, recovery took much longer than anticipated.
One of his biggest lessons: Trust the process and give yourself grace. Whether you're returning from injury, rebuilding fitness, or navigating a difficult season of training, patience isn't weakness. It’s often the fastest path forward.
My Favorite Quote from the Episode
"Just be patient. Think long-term. Things generally take longer to adapt than you think."
Final Thoughts
If there was one message Sage left us with, it's this: The runners who succeed aren't always the most talented. They're often the ones willing to stay consistent, stay healthy, and stay patient long enough to see what's possible!
There is no pace too slow. Keep showing up. Your future fitness is being built one patient day at a time!
Sage was an incredible guest and human to connect with on the podcast, and I couldn’t be more excited to see what he continues to do and bring to runners worldwide as both a coach and top-notch athlete. He’s incredibly intelligent, and fun fact: he started his YouTube channel before he even had an iPhone. Talk about a true OG!
Thank you, Sage, for dropping so many gems in this episode. It was a pleasure having you on the podcast, and I know so many people will benefit from the wisdom, insights, and lessons you shared.
If you’re chasing a PR, navigating a busy life, trying to better understand how to train, or simply looking for tools to stay motivated and find more joy in the process, this conversation is for YOU!

In this episode of RUNWITHALLI LIVE, I sit down with Fiona O’Keeffe, Olympic Marathon Trials champion, Stanford standout, and one of the most exciting rising stars in U.S. distance running.
Fiona made headlines by winning the 2024 U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials in her first-ever marathon, running 2:25:10 and securing her place on Team USA. But what makes her story even more powerful isn’t just the result. It’s the mindset behind it!
We dive into what it really means to take a leap into the unknown, trust your training, and show up with confidence. Even when you’re not sure what’s possible yet.
In This Episode, We Cover:
- What was going through Fiona’s mind during her breakthrough Olympic Trials win
- How adopting a “nothing to lose” mindset can unlock performance
- Transitioning from collegiate running at Stanford to the professional stage
- What a realistic training week looks like (vs. a “perfect” one)
- Advice for running your first marathon
- How to know when you’re ready to level up in distance or performance
- Lessons learned from setbacks and navigating the highs and lows of elite racing
- Race day mindset and how to stay strong when things get tough mid-race
Key Takeaways:
- You don’t need certainty to take a leap—you just need the courage to try
- Confidence is built through action, not perfection
- Progress comes from consistency, patience, and trusting the process
Whether you’re chasing a PR, lining up for your first marathon, or working through self-doubt, this episode will leave you feeling empowered to take that next bold step!
Fiona is preparing for the Boston Marathon this Monday, and I couldn’t be more excited to see what she and the other women (and athletes) toeing the line will do. She’s incredible to speak with (super friendly) and I truly appreciate her taking the time out of her hectic build (as many of you can relate, it’s exhausting to add anything extra during peak marathon training), so thank you, Fiona!
I am honored to bring you this conversation on the pod today!

In today's episode, RUNWITHALLI LIVE host Alli sits down with professional distance runner Katie Izzo, a 3x Team USA Cross Country athlete (2023, 2024, 2026) and recent 2nd place finisher at the U.S. Cross Country Championships to talk about what it really takes to rise through the ranks and compete at the highest level.
From her standout NCAA career at the University of Arkansas where she finished 3rd at NCAA Cross Country Championships, helped secure a national team title, and ran one of the fastest indoor 5Ks in collegiate history to now building her professional career in Flagstaff, Katie shares what it means to pursue your full potential with intention, grit, and consistency.
But this episode isn’t just for elite runners. It’s for YOU. The everyday runner balancing life, work, and training, looking to get better, stay consistent, and show up with purpose.
In this episode, we cover:
- How Katie first got into running, and when she knew it could be something special
- The moment things “clicked” in her career (and what that actually looked like behind the scenes)
- Mindset shifts that help her stay consistent at the highest level
- One underrated training element that can make or break your PR
- What road runners can learn from cross country when it comes to strength + durability
- Why hills, trails, and uneven terrain might be your secret weapon
- What it felt like to earn her spot on Team USA (again!) and key lessons from that race
- How her definition of success has evolved over time
- Advice for runners feeling nervous before a big race
- Why she said YES to coming on the RUNWITHALLI® LIVE podcast
One BIG takeaway is how success isn’t about perfect training. It’s about stacking consistent days (& recovery ones, too) while building strength in ways most runners don’t! Katie’s journey proves that durability, mindset, and trusting YOUR process are what separate the good from the great!
Katie is one of the first people who welcomed me to San Diego after I reached out to her to go for a run (yes, I KNOW! That was bold!). She kindly said yes without hesitation, shared her favorite running spots around the city that I was unfamiliar with, and made me feel more at ease in a place that felt very unknown to me.
I am forever grateful. I also might’ve convinced her to join my post-run candy addiction, sharing gummies and Parakeet Cafe smoothies before parting ways. It was such a fun way to share miles with an incredible athlete who is not only a bada$$ runner, but also a genuinely kind human.
I’m so lucky to bring you this conversation on the pod today!

On today’s episode of RUNWITHALLI LIVE, I’m joined by the incredible Lisa Goodin, an Olympic Trials Marathon Qualifier at 39, mom of three, wife, and all-around powerhouse and kind human!
This conversation is about so much more than running. It’s about what’s possible when you commit to something bigger than yourself, stay in the process, and give yourself permission to chase goals, no matter where you are in life. Lisa’s story will stick with you. Because let’s be real. So many of us hold ourselves back. “I started too late.” “I’m too busy.” “I’m not talented enough.” Lisa breaks ALL of those narratives. She pursued (and achieved) an Olympic Trials Qualifying standard while balancing motherhood, marriage, and life outside the sport. And she didn’t just survive the process. She thrived in it!
Questions we cover include:
- How Lisa knew the OTQ goal was worth chasing, and what gave her the courage to go all in
- Her journey back to running and what it looks like to train at a high level as a mom of three
- The real game changers in her training (and the underrated ones outside of it)
- Finding joy in the process. Even during peak weeks when motivation is LOW
- The role of cross-training and how it supports longevity and performance

This week on RUNWITHALLI LIVE, I’m joined by David Machin, Lead Community Organizer for Health Poverty Action, the charity I’m fundraising for as I prepare to run the 2026 London Marathon.
I’ll be honest: there were things I learned in this conversation that I didn’t even know before diving into the topics David breaks down in this episode. It was eye-opening. I believe it will be for you, too.
We discuss the reality of health poverty and why it’s not a quick fix. This conversation goes beyond temporary solutions or ultra-processed “quick” foods. It’s about long-term infrastructure funding, access to healthier food options, and healthcare systems that sustainably serve communities.
David also explains why unrestricted funding is so critical. When funds aren’t tightly restricted, organizations have the flexibility to respond where needs are greatest. Something that’s especially urgent right now as government aid is being cut in ways we haven’t seen before, creating widening funding gaps across global health systems.
In this episode, we explore:
- The difference between health and health equity, and why that distinction matters
- How systemic barriers, the climate crisis, and political decisions directly impact access to care
- Why NGOs are under increasing pressure, and how resilience means continuing the work even when it feels like getting punched in the face
- Why advocacy and holding decision-makers accountable for healthcare and funding cuts are JUST as important as fundraising
The hard truth is this: things may get worse before they get better. Health poverty is systemic and deeply rooted, leading to preventable illness, disease, and loss of life in communities with inaccessible health resources.
And yet what left me hopeful is that Health Poverty Action is doing the work anyway. They’re raising funds, building awareness, supporting community-led solutions, and continuing to show up despite immense challenges. Every single dollar goes a long way, but there is still meaningful work ahead!
This episode is a reminder that endurance athletes, and humans in general, can use their voices, platforms, and miles to help bridge gaps, elevate conversations, and push for change.
A Small Ask With Big Impact
If you’re able to donate, please know this: unrestricted funds give organizations the flexibility to act where the need is greatest. With government aid being cut and funding gaps growing, even small contributions matter more than ever. If donating isn’t possible right now, sharing this episode helps amplify awareness. And that matters, too.

Whether you’re an endurance athlete, new to running, or just curious, I hope this episode inspires you, deepens your understanding of why we run, and shows how our footsteps can create real impact by supporting charities and communities that need it most.

On today’s episode of RUNWITHALLI LIVE, I’m joined by a very special guest, Bill Armstrong, Founder & CEO of Neversecond™.
Founded in 2020, Neversecond™ has quickly become my go-to fueling brand and has firmly established itself within the endurance and high-performance running community. Neversecond™ is the official fuel sponsor for RunWithAlli Coaching, and I truly believe this product can change the way endurance athletes approach fueling for marathons and beyond. Especially for those pursuing competitive performance for the long haul.
Before discovering Neversecond™, I was genuinely frustrated with fueling. After years of high-volume training and racing, I had tried countless products that caused GI distress, felt inconsistent, or simply didn’t meet the demands of endurance sport. That all changed when a friend in San Diego introduced me to Neversecond™. From the very first trial, the approach clicked. Precision, simplicity, and science-backed execution. I immediately knew this was the kind of fueling system serious endurance athletes need, and the kind I wanted our athletes using.
In this episode, Bill and I dive into the evolution of the Neversecond™ brand and the philosophy behind it. We talk about how Neversecond™ supports endurance and high-performance athletes, what truly sets the brand apart from other fueling companies, how runners can practically apply these products in both training and racing, how to build community around fueling, and so much more.
Questions we cover include:
- How did Neversecond™ come to life, and what gap in the endurance fueling space were you trying to solve?
- What backgrounds did each of you bring to building the brand, science, sport, business, or all of the above?
- Neversecond™ is known for precision fueling. What does that mean in practical terms for endurance athletes?
- Can you explain the science behind products like the C30 gel in a way runners can immediately apply?
- How early in a training cycle should athletes start practicing race fueling?
- For someone training for their first marathon, what’s a simple Neversecond™ fueling framework to follow?
- What lessons from elite sport translate best to everyday endurance runners?
- If athletes could follow just one fueling principle, what should it be?
- How do you decide which stores carry your product?
- Why did you say YES to being on the RUNWITHALLI LIVE Podcast?
Whether you’re an endurance athlete, an aspiring runner, or simply curious about the space, I hope this episode leaves you feeling inspired, better educated on fueling for running, and more aware of the endurance fueling landscape, and how Neversecond™ can support your athletic and endurance goals!

On today’s episode of RUNWITHALLI LIVE, I’m joined by special guest and dear friend, Kimberly Penharlow.
Kimberly is a Global Executive Coach, leadership facilitator, and endurance athlete, and together we explore the powerful parallels between leadership and athletic performance. We dive into the importance of cultivating a growth mindset, helping people think differently through movement, and learning to see challenges through shifting perspectives.
Kimberly shares how running has helped her build confidence, courage, and resilience, both in her professional work and in life, and how the lessons learned on the road translate directly into bringing out the unique leader within each of us.
This episode is an elevated conversation about movement, mindset, leadership, healing, and growth.
Kimberly opens up about navigating profound personal loss and how marathon training helped her rediscover purpose, resilience, and self-trust. We dive into how running mirrors leadership development, requiring patience, consistency, mindset shifts, recovery, and strong boundaries.
You’ll also hear insights on:
- Using running as therapy and personal reinvention
- Growth mindset through movement
- Leadership lessons from marathon training
- The role of boundaries in performance and burnout prevention
- Why community matters. On the run and in life
Whether you’re an athlete, a leader, or someone moving through change, this episode will inspire you to lead and live with courage!

In this episode of RUNWITHALLI LIVE, we sit down with Kylie Mantz — a strong, grounded, and intentional woman who offers a refreshing look at what life really looks like behind the scenes of elite running.
Kylie opens up about life inside the Mantz household during training cycles, the emotional highs and lows of being married to a professional runner, and the quiet moments that often go unseen. The ones filled with patience, faith, laughter, and love!
This conversation isn’t about splits, medals, or records. It’s about partnership, communication, and staying true to yourself while supporting someone chasing extraordinary goals!
Topics We Dive Into:
- The unseen moments between races, during travel, or in the stillness after a big training week
- What running has taught Kylie about patience, perspective, and purpose
- How she stays grounded and connected through the pressure and spotlight of elite competition
- Her favorite race experiences and the little pre-race rituals and quirks that keep things fun
- How Kylie balances being a supportive partner while maintaining her own goals, passions, and identity
- The role of communication and emotional connection during training
- What fans can do to support elite athletes and their families beyond race day cheering
- Why Kylie said yes to joining RUNWITHALLI LIVE and what she hopes listeners take away
Key Takeaways:
Success in sport and life comes from teamwork. The kind that happens quietly behind the scenes. Every athlete’s journey is powered by the people who believe in them when no one’s watching. Balance, communication, and gratitude are as important as miles and medals!
Tune in for an inside look at the Mantz household, where love, patience, and purpose meet performance. I absolutely loved my chat with Kylie! She’s honest, kind, and refreshingly real. I walked away inspired by her story, and I know you will too.

- A personal story from Mille about a memorable moment in the Planet Nusa community that perfectly captures the brand’s spirit of belonging and movement.

In this episode of RUNWITHALLI LIVE, I sit down with Delphine Godley Sellars, co-founder of Urban Community AgriNomics (UCAN). Just like we runners know the importance of fueling well and respecting the process, Delphine’s work is all about transforming food access, environmental justice, and community resilience in Northern Durham.
We talk about how a vision of healthy food, soil justice, and youth empowerment led Delphine and her sister Lucille to launch a nonprofit that’s already donated over 100,000 lbs of fresh produce, restored heritage land, and built bridges across generations through education.
I loved my conversation with Delphine Sellars about the parallels between UCAN’s mission of harvesting food and a runner’s journey. UCAN empowers communities to be less reliant on the outside world—just like running teaches us to discover the world one step at a time. We may not be gathering food on our runs, but we’re harvesting something different: lessons, resilience, and a deeper connection to nature, step by step, minute by minute, mile by mile.
Please tune in and get inspired by a grassroots leader who’s cultivating impact the same way we build fitness: one step, one seed, one act at a time!

In this episode of RUNWITHALLI LIVE, I’m joined by Professor Christopher Gardner, PhD — a world-renowned nutrition scientist, Rehnborg Farquhar Professor of Medicine at Stanford, and Director of the Stanford Nutrition Studies Research Group.
For over 30 years, Professor Gardner has led groundbreaking human nutrition studies exploring the real-world impact of diets like Mediterranean, Ketogenic, Vegan, Low-Fat, and Low-Carb on heart health, glucose levels, inflammation, and overall well-being. He’s also a former chair of the American Heart Association’s Nutrition Committee and recently served on the 2025 U.S. Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee.
Our conversation dives into everything from:
- What to eat (and avoid) to feel and perform your best
- Why nutrition is key to long-term endurance performance
- The role of the gut microbiome and personalized nutrition
- How to make healthy food taste unapologetically delicious
- And why "stealth nutrition" might be the next big thing
Fun fact: I took Professor Gardner’s 8-week Stanford nutrition science course, which completely changed how I view performance fueling. It inspired me to deepen my own nutrition education so I can better support runners like YOU.
Whether you’re a marathoner, weekend warrior, or just looking to fuel your best life, this episode will leave you informed and inspired.
Hit play, and let’s dive into the science (and joy!) of food for performance with Professor Gardner.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Emily Moore, a Registered Dietitian, Certified Running and Strength Coach, and accomplished runner. Emily founded a private coaching practice where she helps runners optimize their nutrition and training strategies to enhance performance, improve overall health, and build long-term sustainability in the sport.
Our conversation explores the vital connection between academic knowledge and practical application, a theme that resonates deeply in coaching and professional development. It was a pleasure speaking with Emily, and I trust this episode will provide valuable insights for anyone looking to align evidence-based principles with real-world impact.
I hope this episode inspires you and demonstrates how transformative it can be to have expert support in your corner. With the right guidance, your running can reach new heights — stronger, smarter, and more focused than ever!

Alexander Zakharin is an established realtor based in NYC and has worked with me (Coach Alli) for over two years. From running the streets in his hometown in Russia as a kid to taking his talents to the marathon and distance running world, Alex has set his eyes on a sub-3-marathon goal and has been chipping away with new PRs in distances ranging from the mile to the marathon to get there. Recently, Alex just ran a 3-hour and 4-minute marathon at the St. Jude Memphis Marathon last December and is working on the shorter, speedier stuff before tackling the distance again later this year. The fun is JUST getting started! Alex started before being coached by me with a 3-hour and 45-minute marathon and has experienced so much growth and progress since then! I'm thrilled to have him on this episode to share with the show's listeners about his journey, success being coached by the Runwithalli Brand, his journey to get to certain milestones, changes he has made throughout his training so far, and so much more!
Alex is always a pleasure to chat with—we always have a blast! He is one of the most charismatic, ambitious, and driven individuals I know, consistently pursuing ambitious goals in and outside his running shoes.
I hope this episode leaves you feeling empowered and inspired by what structure, perseverance, consistency, and the guidance of a coach can do. I'm excited to see what Alex does next! I hope you enjoy the listen and topics covered in this episode as much as I did!

Kristy Baumann is a Registered Dietitian from St. Paul, Minnesota, a 12x marathon runner, wife and mom to a 2 and 5 year old. She helps runners learn how to fuel properly to support their training and have a healthy relationship with food.
For years, she thought she was fueling well as a runner. But, found herself feeling sluggish on runs, having headaches and nausea after long runs, and experienced stomach issues and muscle cramps on race day.
She was focused on becoming “fat adapted”, always trying to manage her weight to run faster, and followed food rules. Food was constantly on her mind and she had a big sweet tooth. These were all signs of underfueling that resulted in recurring injuries and a poor relationship with food. It wasn't until she began to change her mindset around food, understand the science of nutrition and how the body works that she was able to learn to fuel properly, feel more energized and improve her running.
Now, she is on a mission to spread the message that restricting food and following fad diets is not the answer. Having a positive relationship with food is the foundation of fueling well as a runner.
I had such a fun time chatting with Kristy on the show, and I look forward to sharing the excellent advice, wisdom, and expertise discussed in this show with the world!

Hey there, runners and fitness enthusiasts! Welcome to the fourth episode of the Ask Alli Spin-Off, where we dive deep into training and running. I'm your host, Coach Alli, and I'm here to guide you on this journey to help you reach your fitness goals.
Today's episode of 'Ask Alli' takes a turn after viewing the rerun of the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials and recapping the race, learnings, and takeaways for all of us to apply to our running training! I share my biggest takeaways and lessons for ALL of us to apply to our runs, to stay process-oriented, and to learn to love the journey, not the outcome of one race.
There are some wins to celebrate! Congratulations to three women who made the Olympic Team: Fiona O'Keeffe Wins The U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials in her First-Ever Marathon, followed by Emily Sisson and Dakotah Lindwurm.
And to two men, brothers, and training partners with guaranteed spots on the men's Olympic Team, too! Conner Mantz ran 2:07:48 at the 2023 Chicago Marathon, and Clayton Young tallied a time of 2:08:00 in Chicago.
I am so happy and proud of all of us, of our sport. I am still hysterically crying, just feeling all the emotions and loving how well these people ran their hearts out the way they did today.
Thank you to everyone behind the scenes who made today's event possible and viewable for the public. Your hard work does not go unnoticed. We all appreciate it. I can't find a word for how I feel right now because inspiration doesn't do justice. 😭 I hope this episode leaves you feeling inspired and motivated to tackle your next goal, stay resilient, be open to facing controversy, and overcome your biggest fears to eliminate any self-doubt because you can. WE can.

Lindsay Scott, Registered Physiotherapist and Acupuncture Provider at The Runner's Academy, Joins Me For A Discussion on How To Help Others Find Joy In The Sport of Running. Lindsay and her team are passionate runners, triathletes, and coaches who all share a commonality of helping runners find joy in the sport while performing it properly to optimize performance, recover, and reduce any risk of injuries.
Linday's adaptive coaching model speaks to her individualized approach to every athlete who walks through the door. She emphasizes the importance of movement over anything else before tackling the running-specific "stuff." Movement is the pinnacle of what allows us to do hard things, and Lindasy is here today to tell us a little bit more about how her role with runners at The Runner's Academy allows her to do just that. I enjoyed my chat with Lindasy, as I always love connecting with other like-minded individuals who all share a common passion for the sport of running, fitness, movement, and doing things the SMART way.

Lindsay first reached out to me to share her new product and has given me, along with many female athletes I coach and some friends, the opportunity to test the groundbreaking shoe brand made for women by women!

Coach Denise, The Marathon Whisperer, Joins Me For A Coaches Corner Chat On Getting You Prepared For The 2023 Bank of America Chicago Marathon!
Today marks 14 grateful years for Coach Denise's transformation into Denise 2.0. Denise started running in 4th grade because it was the only sport she could do. She has been running ever since and has leveraged running as therapy. Shortly after running her first marathon and wanting to get faster, she was solely focused on PRs and started losing the joy of why she began to run. The accident of getting hit by a car made her reassess her goals and have an entirely new world of appreciation for movement, for running. Denise continues to influence through action and helps others run marathons and chase down crazy goals while running WITH THEM. I'm excited to share her admirable energy and wisdom on another show episode! We chat about our WHY, racing, training for Chicago, and so much more in hopes of inspiring you to chase 26.2! We're here to help you! Denise will be in the last corral in Chicago to support all of YOU first-time marathoners pursuing your first 26.2 starting and finish line. You won't miss her donut shorts, and if you need a running companion, you've got your girl there!

He is currently on a break from training due to taking some time to mentally and physically return from a minor setback and regroup before tackling the marathon distance and chasing a sub-3-hour marathon!

On today's episode, Jaci Wilson, Fellow Run Coach and Distance Runner join the show's Host, Run Coach Alli.
Jaci focuses on "ALL THE THINGS" outside of a training plan. She received her run coach certification from Road Runners of America (RRCA). She can now help more runners by offering a holistic approach to running and training soon-to-be runners under the Runwithalli brand! Jaci builds training plans for each athlete's goals and races to meet where they're at in their fitness journey. Jaci loves getting to know the athletes she works with and helping them understand the parallels between running and life – any lesson that pops up during training can be applied to life!
Jaci is a firm believer that you need to eat to RUN, derived from her nutrition program that she pays forward and tailors to others' needs to help them develop a holistic training strategy. This approach allows Jaci to work with athletes to find their WHY and change their lives on a deeper level. This is a part of her story and past experiences shaping her coaching methodology.
In Jaci's own words, "It is my OBLIGATION to share how this opportunity has changed my life! How saying YES to myself and taking my health seriously changed my body, my mind, my running game, my relationship with food, my career path, my happiness, and my LIFE." She looks forward to helping YOU do the same!
Today on the show, we discuss:
- Jaci's PRE & POST Burnout, both of which comprise what she calls her "two-step" running journey.
- The importance of appreciating the journey, the training, and thinking about your long-term running goals to achieve your success as a runner.
- The importance of mental training as a part of your holistic training strategy, and all of the other little things, as Jaci says herself, "ALL THE THINGS."

John Zilly, Co-Founder of Vimazi, joins the show's Host, (me) Run Coach Alli.
Scott Tucker, Co-Founder of Vimazi, during a 6 am interval workout in 2017, had a brainstorm—shoes tuned to specific pace zones should respond more efficiently to the forces generated in running than non-tuned shoes. Scott conducted a research study with a team of scientists that proved the theory. He also discovered that tuning shoes by pace resulted in optimized cushioning.
With solid data and a patent pending on the tech, Scott grabbed his high school running buddy John Zilly, a marathoner himself, and together they formed Vimazi. Right at its inception, it committed to championing the spirit of running for all runners. They’ve done that by pursuing the scientific truth about running forces and footwear, wherever it leads. They also champion runners by personalizing shoes according to pace. So every runner gets the shoe they need to feel their best.
Today on the show, we discuss:
- The different types of shoes for different paces
- The process that forced John & Scott to relearn everything they thought they knew about running shoes to revolutionize a science-backed pace-tuned shoe that works best for you and your running needs

San Diego has a special place in my heart since it's the race where I took 14 minutes off of my Los Angeles Marathon PR in 2016 and Qualified for the 2017 Boston Marathon with a finish time of 3 hours and 21 minutes while running it for the first time. As I came back from an injury and took as I took on coaching as my full-time profession, I continued to enjoy evolving with the sport of distance running. Last October, I snagged a new 19-minute PR competing during the pandemic in October, running the Rock 'n' Roll San Diego Marathon, finishing with an official time of 3 hours, 02 minutes, and 48 seconds. I'm training to run a faster marathon, and I'm honored to say I will be returning for the 25th anniversary Rock 'n' Roll San Diego Marathon in June 2023. I look forward to partnering with Rock 'n' Roll San Diego next June and sharing with you some things that make this race my number #1 favorite marathon during my discussion with half marathoner and amazing Race Director, Meryl Leventon! The pictures say it all. The energy is electric; the crowds are contagious, and the weather is to die for - I cannot rave about it enough! Please don't take my word for it. Enjoy my discussion with Meryl about the course and the beautiful hills and energy that make this race so special! I look forward to partnering with the organization for future initiatives. The best has yet to come!

In today's solo episode, I answer questions about the long run in a marathon training program. I discuss who it's for, what to do for it, when to do it, where it goes in your schedule, why it's an essential training run in your marathon build-up, and how to progress your long run to become your strongest running self, tied with a little personal story you might be able to relate!
A few tips:
Get the experience to know you can do every long run you set out to do. Walk part of the long run if that's what your body needs. Be honest with yourself. Write your chapter to your book. You are your only competition.
Have a goal to fuel your purpose and push mile by mile. Thousands of strangers are enduring the same pain of the "longest run" on race day. Together, you can do it!
Keep yourself strong. Show up for yourself run after run, no matter what. Make no excuses. Push your body and your mind further. Do not give up. Endure the hurt because you are capable.
Fight. Push. Experience breakthroughs with dedication, resilience, consistency, and hard work. You'll believe in yourself and show up for yourself run after run. No matter what.
We're only aware of the fraction of the things we're capable of; our limitations are in our minds.
I suggest incorporating this mobility routine before and after your long runs to help you recover quicker. Keep your major joints and muscles limber and loosened up to prime your body for what's next long run after long run.
Here is a foam rolling tutorial to do before and after your long runs. Foam rolling is excellent self-care and keeping your muscle fascia loving you as it should! Recover smart around your longest training runs. Grab a foam roller on amazon using this link right here.

In today's solo episode, I answer a common question asked by several of my show's listeners. I am addressing knee pain after a 20-mile run and how to proceed with marathon training.
I answer the below question during today's episode:
Hello! I'm currently training for my second-ever marathon. I did a long run this weekend (20 miles) and since have had an odd pain in the back of my knee. Immediately after the run, I was limping heavily, finding I couldn't straighten my right leg. The pain has eased now, and most of the time, I can walk normally but now and then, it sort of spasms, and I find I have to lift my leg and ease it down again while supporting the base of my hamstring. I think I will try a light, slow five-mile run on Friday to test it. I'm due to run 12 miles on Sunday, but I'm wary of injuring myself further, as it's still not right. Do you have any experience of this? I'm worried that if I don't run at all this week, it could drastically affect my marathon fitness. I don't care what time I get; I want to finish. The marathon is on 4th October.
During today's episode, I address:
- The potential reasons for the knee pain at mile 20
- How to evaluate what is causing the knee pain
- Why it's essential to get it checked out and to seek expert advice
- When it's necessary to stop running and how to teach yourself to accept your fitness
- Who you can go to for guidance and advice
- What knee pain at mile 20 can lead to
- Where to go for guidance
I suggest incorporating this mobility routine before and after your runs and running rest days to help you recover quicker. Keep your major joints and muscles limber and loosened up to prime your body for what's next run after run.
Here is a foam rolling tutorial to do before and after your runs. Foam rolling is excellent self-care and keeping your muscle fascia loving you the way it should! Recover smart around your training runs. Grab a foam roller on amazon using this link right here.

In today's episode, I discuss the pros and cons of running for time and running for mileage. The first thing to evaluate is what your ultimate goal is for running. That can dictate whether your current training program should consist of running for mileage and focusing on paces or whether it should focus on the amount of time you spend on your feet running. For those looking to run farther without stopping AT ALL (walking is still aerobic), time might be the best option for you. A mileage training model might be your best bet for those working towards a new 10K or Marathon personal best goal or training to qualify for the Boston Marathon with more specific paces to hit during your workout. Tracking your mileage is essential since you quantify your weekly mileage, and you want to monitor your pacing. A great way to hold yourself accountable if you're feeling solo is to hire a coach or compare your stats with your running friends working towards a similar goal, such as Qualifying for a BQ!
Keep a training log to keep yourself organized and motivated and hold yourself accountable. It's essential to track the total time spent on your feet AND distance week over week to assess your progress and see where you might need to pivot to adjust your program to meet you where you're at in your training.
I recommend keeping a daily journal when you feel self-deprecated and impatient to help keep you on track.
Below are bullets that might help you get started with your daily journal!
- Track how each run felt
- Write down the shoes I wore
- Write what the weather was like
- How I slept the night before
- What my nutrition looked like around that run
- Am I on my menstrual cycle (ladies!)
- Am I stressed out about something at work
- Am I going through a break-up or other stressful life event
All of the above can affect your training runs and are essential to note during your training journey to better understand yourself as an individual first and then as a runner.
I cover why to choose time spent on feet versus mileage training for any distance running program and how to determine the way you should train based on where you live and where you can prepare! A mixture of time spent on your feet AND mileage could be beneficial for you, too, depending on your strengths and weaknesses. It depends on what YOU need!

Allison Tully, Co-Founder of Peak Performance Equipment and the InfinitiLoop explains the beginning of the product
It was the summer of 2018. My running buddies and I yawned as we strapped on our daily o'dark:30 run when one of our friends threw her tangled reflective gear to the ground, shouting, "FORGET IT! I'll run without anything!" We stood staring at the $150 worth of equipment, one piece held together by duct tape, another tied with twisty ties to keep it snug (yet it still flew all over the place), when I thought, "There has to be a better way." After having colleagues, friends, friends of friends, and so along try out the belt and provide feedback of all sorts, Allison and her husband came out with the final version of the InfinitiLoop,w which I wear on my early morning and evening runs myself!
Instead of looking like a Christmas Tree with all of the heavy gear and lights while you're out on your run, you can pick up the Peak Performance InfinitiLoop instead! The Loop illuminates the path ahead of you, making you visible to cars and other pedestrians around you, keeping you safe and away from the bad guys, and fits super lightly on your hips. It's super cute! Some key attributes of the belt are below:
Consolidation of Headlamp and LED illumination, all on one belt, no fuss
Bright 300 Lumen max output, dual-setting 360° wrap-around LED band
Light 3.8oz; you'll barely know it's there
Rechargeable Powered with integrated 1500 mAh Li-ion battery with micro-USB charge port
All-Weather Built to withstand whatever Mother Nature throws at you
See & Be Seen Illuminate the path ahead, eliminating visual glare and neck strain, and alerting you to objects in your way, making sure you're seen from all directions

In this episode, and to honor mental health awareness month, I share the top five strategies I've employed to keep myself mentally tough before running my first Marathon, the 2015 TCS NYC Marathon.
I explain how each of these five ways has grown with me as a person and as a runner.
Five ways to build mental toughness:
- Visualize your most significant goal and create a roadmap of the steps needed to get you there.
- Create mantras for yourself to write down, post on your wall, and say aloud during your runs!
- Distract yourself by focusing on one thing at a time—every run.
- Clear your mind, whether that's through meditation or journaling! Whatever works for you!
- Get yourself excited to finish your run! Whether that's a giant piece of cheesecake waiting for you afterward, or a fun dinner with friends, write these things down the night before your runs so you do them and stay consistent.
I discuss how having a growth mindset is an essential first step for being able to master your mental toughness and strategy while hitting the road running during a training run or a race! All the small things you do daily and consistently make the more important goal possible.
To change your mindset, you need to make yourself a priority and work on developing methods that will help you to change your attitude. My suggestion? Start with your larger goal, and then work backward. Hopefully, the strategies discussed in today's episode will give you some inspiration to motivate yourself to change the way you think about running and your ability to do it. YOU CAN!
Friendly Reminders:
- Focus on the present and what you have right now.
- Surround yourself with AMAZING energy and people.
- Identify opportunities to grow.
- Practice gratitude daily.
Learning the hard way made me mentally disciplined in a different way. Because of this experience, I can help you figure out a mental strategy to nail your A race and be on your A-game!

In this episode, I spoke with the Co-founder of Track Class, Lucie Beatrix. I had a lengthy chat about navigating the track and how the class can help any athlete striving to run any distance at any fitness level. The track can be intimidating and scary. Our 45-minute holistic fitness class, beginning with a dynamic warm-up, a structured track workout for all paces, and finished with an abs & core routine, will leave you feeling empowered, confident, and part of a new, fun fitness community. This episode shares all the ins and outs of what track class is about and why it's the perfect way for you to elevate your running and unleash your inner elite.
