A message to you - Episode218

4/18/2024
My job as a coach, as Ted Lasso would echo, is to not only make athletes perform to their potential, but to help them become their best self. How can one do that but to be present consistently. Show love and respect abundantly. And model how to present oneself through constant gestures of kindness & thoughtfulness. We’re becoming afraid to tell one another we love each other. That is a mistake that can do more detriment and harm to our society than we can afford at this point in history. So with that said, I love you. I love you as an equal. I love you for what you bring to this world. I love you for your potential. And I love you for the light you can share with others. I’ve lost a lot already this year. With the passing of my Grandmother and friend Hunt, my world dimmed for a moment as their lights were extinguished. It takes a moment for us to process their loss and realize we must shine brighter in their absence because that’s precisely what we miss. Their love and ability to make us feel loved. So again, I say to you I love you! And I ask you to let your light shine as bright as possible. All you have to do is be you! Use the given talents and abilities you have to make this world a better place. Right now, you may be trying to find out what that is, & that’s great! It may also change over time. If anything in life, we must expect the unexpected and be grateful for every opportunity we’re presented with. The good and the bad as each will teach us lessons in life. It’s having the wherewithal to recognize each event in our life is a challenge, and we must rise up to that task and recognize we are not alone when facing obstacles, adversity, and fear itself. You are not alone in this world. To try to go at it by yourself is a mistake. Rely on those around you, those that love you to help you through the tough moments. I am here to help! I do love you! When love is at the forefront of what we do, we set the intention of completing a task with others benefiting before ourselves. It takes a lot to recognize (and it took me a long time to understand), this world would be a better place if we put others before ourselves. So here I am. I try to be present every day for you. To put your needs in front of my own. Not because I’m paid to do so, but because I want to help you. I want to share with you what I’ve learned. To make your journey in life fulfilling and meaningful. I want to give you hope! I want to show you what you can do when you use your love for life and those around you as your guiding principle. My love for my family is my strength. I’ve accomplished so many things in which initially I questioned my ability to complete those events due to their complexity and difficulty. But I gained strength from my family. From their love and support. Not only was I not alone in facing these challenges, I knew I had their love and support to get me through. So find what gives you strength. Find what will support you when uncertainty has you questioning your ability to complete something! Remember, you don’t have to even do this part on your own. There are always those of us willing to help! Let me conclude by saying you should never be afraid or ashamed to tell someone you love them. I love you! -Aaron Saft 4/17/2024 Aaron's information: https://www.patreon.com/RunningIsLifehttps://www.facebook.com/MRRUNNINGPAINSCOACHINGhttps://www.instagram.com/runningislifecoaching/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQ6J512qA34z_N0KJSU4jfwhttps://www.strava.com/athletes/18431982 coachsaft@gmail.com Thanks to all of you for listening!

My Tribute to Hunt Brumby Rest in Peace my Friend (Re-Release of Episode 76) - Episode 217

4/11/2024
Hunt Brumby passed from this world on Sunday, April 7, 2024. He was a friend, an ultra runner, an athlete I coached, some one who I respected, and inspired so many! He left us too soon! He battled cancer valiantly. He continued to smile and be present. I was amazed at his strength. That was Hunt; Strong willed and determined to fight on! I'll miss him. The following episode we recorded after Hunt finished the Vol State 500k in 2021. The original episode was released on July 29, 2021. I love you my friend! Thanks for making a difference in this world! -Aaron Saft April 9, 2024

Equipment to Have for Home Strength Training - Episode 208

2/8/2024
In this episode, I take a look at strength equipment and resources I have found and collected over the past 18 years. Which items I consider prioritizing purchasing before others and why. Again, I have no affiliation with any of these products, and I do not endorse their use without consulting a strength training coach like Will Frantz or your Physical Therapist. My hope is to get you thinking about your strength training and if you can do it at home, the starting point to make that happen! Please forgive me if I forgot anything in the shows notes.

Keeping Clear of Training Pitfalls Going Into 2024 - Episode 205

1/18/2024
We've all made training mistakes. Myself included! But we should recognize these mistakes and try not to make them again. In this episode, I hope to bring to light some of these common pitfalls and how we can avoid them. I hope this makes you consider what you're doing and what changes you can make to improve your training! Here are my notes: 1. Not enough variation in training. No intention to the training. 2. Too much specificity too soon 3. Not enough planned recovery in training & after racing (season) 4. Increasing volume & intensity at the same time 5. Not taking care of the ancillary training. Including Lack of hydration, sleep, & proper nutrition 6. Racing too often 7. Can’t devote enough time to training 8. Trying to make up runs by stacking the volume into the next day or days 9. Being obsessed with the numbers (volume, HRT, pace, etc.) instead of enjoying the process 10. Running through an injury. 11. Not having the right resources to answer your questions. Please let me know if you have any questions or would like me to dive deeper into any of these topics.

An Overview of My Training for The Hellbender 100-mile Trail Race - Episode 199

12/7/2023
Here's my breakdown or outline of my training plan for the Hellbender 100. I talk about each block, what I'll be focusing on, how much volume, planned races, my why & goals, & the team of people I'm surrounding myself with to help me through race day. At the end I answer a great question submitted by Keith about just how much zone 2 running we should incorporate into our training. Thank you for the question Keith. Keep these questions coming everyone!
