Happy New Year! We are so glad to be back podcasting! In this episode, we break down impactful running trends of 2025 and what they taught us about training smarter, staying healthy, and keeping the sport joyful. From the rise of AI-driven training plans and Garmin obsession, to the continued shift toward fueling awareness, and longevity-focused running, we look at what actually helped runners improve and what quietly led to burnout or injury. We also talk about the cultural side of running in 2025 and why easier paces need to gain more respect on Strava.
