Episode 53:   How To Run Better In Hot Weather  Temperatures are rising... pretty much everywhere... and pretty much at all times of the year. So this topic is an important one. Because the reality is that we are all going to be dealing with more extreme temperature days. And therefore knowing how best to run (or not run) in those conditions is knowledge that everyone can benefit from. So settle into your chair or get comfortable sitting in traffic or get started on your hike or walk and press play. You'll learn about the importance of the when, where and why of your runs on hot days. You'll also hear about the power of adjustments, the benefits of a great running hat, how sunglasses can keep "Deniro" face away, and why respecting the run on extreme weather days will lead to respecting the runner. There's so much more but I'm tired of typing.

Episode 45:  Questions For YOU To AnswerThat's right! We're flipping the script. I'm asking the questions and you are answering them. So, get ready to use that big brain of yours and ponder some sticklers and stumpers. This is a really fun episode. At least I think it is. And it's also some great training for your runs. A run should be a great conversation between your mind and body after all. And great conversations are often made up of questions and stories. This run will demand both... from you!I also think that you'll need (and want) to spend some time after the episode pondering and processing the questions I give you and the answers you give back. Especially since I ask you a bunch of followup questions to every main question I ask. Anyway, that's why I'm going to list out the main questions from the episode.  So, here they are:Why do you want to run?Where is your favorite place to run?What time of year is your favorite time of year to run?Track or trails? What's the worst life advice you've ever been given?Who was/is the best teammate you've ever had?What's the hardest thing you've ever done?Do you dance differently when you are alone?If you were tasked with making one meal for people you cared about what would it be? If you could set one big goal for your running right now what would it be? Who in your life do you most believe needs an invitation to a starting line?Cheers and thank you for listening!Coach BennettSend us a messageQuick little sneaky link here for the book I wrote that I haven't "officially" announced that I wrote yet just in case you want to PRE-ORDER it. Be sure to send any and all questions and comments to the mailbag:Coach Bennett’s Podcast 9220 SW Barbur Blvd STE 119, #322 Portland, Oregon 97219Be sure to check out the Two Coach Bennetts Merch Store for t-shirts, hoodies, coffee mugs, pint glasses and more! - https://twocoachbennetts.com/merchAnd if you need even more Coach Bennett in your life you can scratch that itch by subscribing to the Coach Bennett’s Newsletter.You can also listen to the Two Coach Bennetts Talking podcast on Apple Podcasts or on Spotify Podcasts or anywhere else podcasts are offered.Or you can follow on Instagram: @coachbennettTikTok: @CoachBennettCheck out Coach Bennett on Cameo fo...
