Last long run of the St. Jude Marathon build is in the books! 16.3 miles this morning in a brisk 32° at a comfortable 7:26 pace. Just 3 weeks until race day! I'll start backing off the mileage a little next week, with the real taper kicking in at 2 weeks out. The hard work is done, the hay is in the barn, and now it's about recovering, staying sharp, and showing up ready to race! #StJudeMarathon #MarathonTraining #MarathonTaper #DistanceRunning #RoadToStJude

One of the most powerful recovery tools we have is completely free: our breath. Sean Jacobs breaks down how breathwork can help manage stress, improve recovery, and support better performance.

A double a day keeps the doctor away! Or something like that… #fitdadclub #running #marathontraining #fitnessjourney #marathon

Less than 4 weeks until St. Jude, and the work is getting more specific! Today’s fartlek was all about getting comfortable at marathon pace while keeping the legs sharp. At this point, the fitness is built. Now it’s about fine-tuning and showing up ready on race day. Want to learn more about training smarter and connecting with runners chasing their own goals?

Consistency is the key to becoming a better runner. It’s not one big workout or a perfect training week that makes the difference. It’s stacking days, weeks, and months of showing up and putting in the work. Keep showing up. Trust the process. The results will come. Join us in Miles in Common!

83 miles in the books and 4 weeks until the St. Jude Memphis Marathon! Spent the week running through Phoenix and Houston, logging miles with friends along the way. Feeling recovered from last weekend’s race and really happy with where the fitness is heading. One more big week of quality training before the taper begins. The work is almost done. Time to sharpen things up and get ready to race! #StJudeMarathon #MarathonTraining #RoadToStJude #RunningCommunity #MarathonPrep

22 miles in Houston this morning! Started with a 14-mile progression down to 6:30 pace, then jumped into 10 x 3 minutes at marathon pace with 2-minute recoveries. The goal was simple: practice running marathon pace on fatigued legs. With St. Jude just a few weeks away, these are the workouts that matter! Great having my buddy Paul alongside on the bike and getting to knock out a few miles with Griffin! #MarathonTraining #StJudeMarathon #LongRun #HoustonRunning #RunningCommunity

VO₂ max might determine your ceiling, but how high is your floor? Having a high VO₂ max doesn’t automatically make you a faster runner. How well you utilize that fitness matters just as much. Dr. Melissa Puppa breaks down the science behind VO₂ max and what it actually means for your running performance.

Phoenix has some incredible places to run! The scenery, trails, and running paths have been awesome to explore. But I’ve noticed one thing… nobody says good morning! 😂 Back home, runners usually acknowledge each other, but out here I’m getting nothing! Is this a Phoenix thing, or am I just too used to Southern hospitality? #RunningCommunity #PhoenixRunning #RunExploration #RunnerLife #DougRunsLong

Pain isn’t always the enemy. Sometimes it’s your body trying to tell you something. Dr. Sara Michael from 901 PT breaks down how runners should think about pain, what it means, and why understanding it can help keep you running healthy.

Flood Stage 🚨 Tempe Town Lake! My first time in Phoenix and apparently this isn’t normal! People are all gathered along the banks to witness this lake/river at flood stage! #Running #PhoenixRunning #TempeArizona #RunExplore #MarathonTraining

Phoenix, AZ runners! I’m in town this week and looking to explore the city while getting some miles in! Where are the best places to run? Any local run clubs I should check out? If you know someone in the Phoenix running community I should link up with, tag them below! Always enjoy meeting new runners and exploring new places when I travel! #PhoenixRunning #PhoenixRunners #ArizonaRunning #RunClub #RunningCommunity

HUGE PR today at the RRS Half Marathon! 🔥 1:14:44, 3rd overall, and over 4 minutes off my previous PR! Rainy, windy conditions, but stuck to the plan. Started conservatively, settled into a rhythm, and pushed hard through the second half. Couldn’t be happier with how this one played out! 5 weeks until St. Jude Marathon, and this was a BIG confidence boost heading into the final stretch of training. Sub-2:35 is the goal! 👀 #MarathonTraining #HalfMarathonPR #RoadToStJude #RunningCommunity #DougRunsLong

First impressions of the @ASICSamerica Metaspeed Edge Tokyo! 👟 Wasn’t sold on them at first, but once I picked up the pace, my opinion started to change. Definitely a stiff, aggressive ride that seems to come alive at faster speeds. Eager to see how they perform on race day! @RunWithTheHouse #ASICS #MetaspeedEdgeTokyo #RunningShoes #MarathonTraining #ShoeReview

The @gtownac pool renovations start next week, so this was the last swim in their nice cold pool for the next +6 months. Time for me & @b__rad99 to go swim in the miserable, over heated @ymcamemphis pool… sad day 😢 #swimminglaps #fitnessjourney #triathlon #triathlete #strava
