Summary
Today, I talk with long-distance running expert Denny "Diz" Krahe. Alright, I admit... By this point, you probably know that running isn't necessarily my expertise... However, I've picked up some excellent advice from Diz that I'm definitely putting into practice for when I lace up my shoes for my next run. Running long distances takes a hell of a mindset to push yourself to keep going. If you're listening to our convo today, and you're a runner, you're in for a treat. If you're thinking about picking up some running shoes to take this sport seriously, let Denny be the one to convince you to start the race!
Some Questions I Ask:
- What inspired you to start running?
- As a coach/trainer, what are some things that your audience struggles with?
- How would you coach an athlete who's antsy, or lacks patience?
- How do you define "mental toughness"? And also, the lack of (it)?
- Do you have advice for someone who's interested in becoming a runner?
- What are some of the most impactful books you've read?
