    Hello my friends and welcome to episode 482 of the RunRunLive Podcast. 

    Today I’m going to gift you with a long screed entitled “Zero to Hero, How to go from zero miles and injured to a marathon in 6 months.”

    But, before I go there let’s do some business. 

    I went back to the old RunRunLive 4.0 bumpers, because I like them. I didn’t like the new ones that I had done for me. The old ones are voiced by members of our community. 

    That opening bumper about squeezing the life from lemons is by old-friend John. The strumming guitar and singing are the styling of Adam Tinkoff. The ‘move you to the exit’ is Steve Chopper. And the harmony on the last bit of the outro is Adam and Eddie Marathon. 

    If I ever do interviews again, the ‘featured interview’ bumper is a young version of my talented daughter Katie.

    They make me happy and hopefully make you happy too.

    Secondly I spent some time last weekend loading old shows into the new ACast feed. I got all the way back to 250 – which would be some time in 2012, I believe. 

    This is why episode 251 errantly dropped into your feed as a new show. I have to back date them to get them in the right order. That show was from January 2013, I must have missed a save button. I have fixed it. 

    But- in all seriousness, that show is probably a good example of the format that I used to have back then. I have not listened to it, but if you have, that is an 11-year time travel into the past. If you liked it there are plenty more of similar size and shape.

    At some point I’m going to go back and listen to all of these from the beginning and learn something about myself. 

    Other than that – enjoy this essay on training around our constraints.

    On with the show.
