   The Race I Had to Stop Racing | EP 805

   After five weeks and nearly 500 miles on the Camino de Santiago, Scott returns with stories about the miles, the people, the blisters, the food, and the surprising fitness he gained without running. But the bigger story is what happened when an ultrarunner stopped treating the trail like a race and learned to walk his own Camino.

   Dying to Run: When Running Is Who You Are | EP 804

   This gets to the emotional center of the episode rather than simply describing Matt's circumstances. Almost every committed runner understands, at least a little, the uncomfortable question underneath it: Who am I when I can't run? Matt describes running as his identity, community and something he ultimately realized he could not simply replace. That gives this title broad relevance beyond long COVID.

   Aging As An Athlete - Your Mind Remembers. Your Body Has Changed | EP 803

   Coach Kirk Keller joins Scott and Krissy Moehl to explore what it really means to keep running well as the decades add up.
