Rob is dealing with lingering injuries and questioning whether a sub-3 at Tokyo Marathon is still realistic, and whether lining up for a Backyard Ultra in April is even on the table. Charlie, meanwhile, is already deep into backyard training and embracing the long, patient build. They also get into: - Backyard training and how it actually feels - Track running stories (and some unexpected pushback 👀) - The mental toll of injuries - Treadmill miles, winter running, and staying consistent - A massive contest announcement - Random race sign-ups and classic TRJ rambling This one's honest, reflective, and very much about navigating the gray areas of endurance training, when plans aren't clear and nothing feels guaranteed. 🎧 New episodes every week 00:00:00 - Intro 00:02:36 - How We've Been Doing? + Backyard Training 00:18:38 - Track Running Issues... 00:29:44 - The Unfortunate Reality of Dealing with Injuries 00:44:43 - Treadmill & Winter Running 00:52:52 - A MASSIVE Contest Announcement... 00:56:27 - Randomly Signing Up For Races & Back to Backyard Talk 01:03:26 - More Injury Talk & Closing Thoughts 🚀 New episodes every Thursday #runningpodcast #runninginjury #marathontraining #marathon #halfmarathon  ✤ Welcome to The Running Journey! 🏃👟 Looking for some inspiration to keep you motivated on your running journey?
