Tony Holler – Part 2 – Episode 016 – Coaching Runners Podcast

February 26, 2020 by Jay Johnson

Tony and I spend most of this episode focused on training, specifically discussing what distance coaches can adapt from the sprint world to improve performance. If you listened to episode 005 with Tony you know he strongly recommends distance coaches use wickets (aka mini-hurdles) with their athletes. He tweaks that suggestion a bit and points out that it’s very common for distance runners to run a set of wickets with poor mechanics. He then goes into detail with a progression of drills coaches can use to teach proper mechanics.

And just as John O’Malley said it’s important to watch the video below with Jeff Boele, Tony gives his reasons for why it’s a must-watch for serious distance coaches.

Combine this episode with episode 014 and you have almost three and a half hours with Tony!

John O’Malley, Dr. Jeff Messer and Jeff Boelé – Episode 015 – Coaching Runners Podcast

February 17, 2020 by Jay Johnson

Three former guests on the podcast discuss a variety of topics, starting with a definition of the term “speed” and how that term fits into the training of distance runners. Specifically, Jeff Boelé and John O’Malley discuss acceleration and why it may or may not be useful for distance runners.

The conversation then moves on to a discussion of terminology across a spectrum of intensities, including threshold and vVo2max running. Later in the podcast John and Jeff Boelé address a question Joan Hunter submitted regarding sub-max velocity work and their answers are fantastic.

This podcast is in many ways an extension of the conversations these three men and Jay Johnson have been engaging in via a text thread for the past year.

While technical at times, the majority of the information in this podcast will be useful for coaches with two years of experience, coaches with 20 years of experience and everyone in between.

Below is the 20-minute video of Jeff Boelé’s neural session practice, the video that John O’Malley says is a must-watch.

If you’d like some transcribed excerpts of this podcast please join my email list via the sidebar to your right.

Finally, John, Dr. Messer and Jay all spoke at the 2020 Boulder Running Clinics and at the end of the podcast Jay shares a coupon code that will give you $10 off those videos. Visit BoulderRunningClinics.com to purchase the videos.
