Bryan and Peter welcome back sports reporter, author, and athlete Amy Moritz. Amy is in town to report on the Buffalo Sabres game against the Boston Bruins, so naturally Peter and Bryan join her at the TD Garden during the Sabres warm-up. They talk with Amy about her experience self-publishing her book "I Thought You'd be Faster" and how it came out of her experience becoming an endurance athlete. Amy also talks about her work as a sports reporter, the challenge of not falling into the comparison trap as an athlete, and a moment that reminds her to focus on celebrating successes. Plus, an update on the Clyde army countdown.

Bryan puts out a new listener challenge to help him #RebuildBryan as he continues his recovery, while Peter gives an update on his and Igor Babushkin's progress on the new Clyde Army Countdown challenge. Then, Bryan and Peter welcome two amazing individuals from the Back on My Feet Boston organization: director Elizabeth Carr and charity runner Matt Norton. Matt shares how he became a runner and the critical role that running has played in his recovery, while Elizabeth talks about the goals of the BOMF organization and her ongoing challenge not to get lost during races. Peter and Bryan also share exciting new details about the big Heartbreak Hill Running Company and HWYRT event coming in February, and we get an update on what to expect from the #FollowtheCent adventure with Vinnie Cent. Plus, Bryan quizzes Peter on some less-modern words thanks to a list from FOTS Pattie Himes McNally. It's all a bit cacoethes.

This week Bryan and Peter are on a tight schedule, but there's so much to talk about! Peter enlists fellow HWYRTians to help with obtaining SMG Anna Brooks's free, new-to-her treadmill. Peter also shares some concerns that people close to him have voiced about his running. Next, Peter's tale about rewatching a classic movie - John Carpenter's The Thing - brings back childhood memories for Bryan. Peter also takes an intensive treadmill class while Bryan and AIR Andrea Bonney Gould experience the art of framing. Finally, Bryan sings the praises of being crutchless, and Fast Funny Ellen London stops by to give some lessons on Millennial-speak.

 

Jan 12, 2018

Peter and Bryan do some artisanal podcasting on the coldest day of the year. Bryan celebrates his PT progress as he says "goodbye" to his crutches. Peter takes his life into his own hands on a low-end home treadmill. Then, Bryan describes the amazing exhibits that the Goulds explored at the Boston Museum of Science, including why he and Peter are not qualified to play football and how they could stay safe in a lighting storm. And, they lament the race registration blues. Finally, they are joined by HWYRTian Michael Goff, who talks about his first marathon in Philly and his running goals, and Catharine Gould, who explains the ins and outs of high school crew.

Millinocket Crankle 2K

Millinocket Crankle 2K

 

Millinocket Marathon

It’s a Boston qualifier

Millinocket Half-Marathon

It’s only half as long!

But at 5 degrees

that won’t really matter

Your frozen tears 

will just drop and shatter

Then you’ll realize

the best race was the race the night before!

 

Millinocket Crankle 2K

Millinocket Crankle 2K

 

Get out your hand warmers

Get out your wooly hat

Get out your leg warmers

Get out your ankle warmers 

Get out your long johns

Get out your flannel shirt

Get out your running mittens

Get out your wrist warmers

Get out your finger warmers

Get out your windbreaker

Get out your other hat

Get some more socks

But just one thing; In case its 60 degrees

Be ready to take all that off!

Bryan and Peter welcome the triumphant return of Father Dan Horan, O.F.M. (the running friar) for an extra-special, extra-long episode to get everyone through their Thanksgiving travels and runs. They talk about Dan's year of long-distance running, races that he'd like to do, running while traveling, fueling during a race, and the trade-offs between short- and long-distance running. Dan also addresses the challenges we face in today's trying cultural and political climate and the power of running (and certain running podcasts) to bring some much-needed joy. Then, a special listener question and a few verbals and pre-verbals. Peter and Bryan wrap it up with some updates, including the Run 4 All Women film screening, Millinocket royalty, their training runs, and Bryan's next Half Marathon.

Peter catches Bryan up on the Cambridge Costume 5K, then consults with him about a change in his Millinocket training plan. Bryan confessed to a secret new plan. Then we travel to Heartbreak Hill Running Company for a little Heaven & Hell—treadmill and yoga...or is it yoga and treadmill—with Coach Dan Fitzgerald, Yogi Rebecca Pacheco, and some special HWYRT guests. Afterwards, Bryan and Peter sit down with Rebecca to talk about her yoga training, yoga for runners, and the surprising connection between boxing and yoga. Rebecca also shares some advice for first-timers ready to give yoga a try, and takes us on a trip down memory lane to when she and Dan first introduced us to their amazing daughter Edie on Boston Marathon weekend.

HWYRT goes on the road to Brooklyn, NY, to meet artist, writer, and runner Lori Richmond. Lori explains about how she went from being an art kid in remedial gym to having her art featured in Runner's World for her #viewfrommyrun project on Instagram. She also talks about her love of running in New York, her lack of joy of cooking, the benefits of creative personal projects, and the parallels between art and running. Peter, Bryan, and Lori also have the spark of a fantastic new idea that may take the art/writing/running/cooking/retail world by storm. Plus, questions for Lori from fantastic human (and former HWYRT guest) Emily Saul.

Bryan has a not-entirely-surprising Millinocket Marathon reveal and Peter feels the sting of listener feedback. Plus, the “mad pooper” in the news reminds Bryan of a recent strange experience. Then the guys head to the Boston Public Library for an in-depth chat with adventurer, runner, and filmmaker Jonathan Ronzio. They discuss his very early entrepreneurial beginnings, what it took to make his first film Between the Peaks, where the best trails are for mountain running, and what a life full of exercise, adventure, and art looks like. Keep your eyes on the “chicken bus” and don’t stop until you reach Denali!
