Ep 3. Our first listener corner! Plus stress fractures, running shoes, and dealing with grief.

from Two Average Runners · host Alice Penn and Huw Edwards

This week, we respond to our first non-family listener comment. She asked us to share the weird running experiments we try on ourselves. So we did. We also get into Alice's ongoing sock crisis, returning from a stress fracture, some strides Huw is doing, and has warned everyone not to try. Huw shares how the podcast started on the first anniversary of his father's passing. Plus a lot more fun topics.Also, Huw's mum follows him on Strava and has never given him a single kudos.Contact usEmail: [email protected]: @huwjedwards @dralicepenn @two.average.runnersChapters00:00 Welcome and Weekly Ratings02:58 Running Experiences and Upcoming Races06:06 Work-Life Balance and Procrastination09:02 Stress Fractures and Running Trends11:47 Listener Engagement and Running Experiments15:01 Pre-Race Preparations and Gear Selection21:33 The Importance of Socks in Running25:11 Toenail Troubles and Tips27:43 Trail Running Challenges29:48 Experimenting with Trail Shoes30:54 Incorporating Strength Training39:41 Navigating Injury Recovery41:57 Building Back from Injury46:12 The Importance of Patience in Recovery51:04 Seasons of Running and Life58:01 Reflections on Family and Heritage
