This is an episode from the first version of the RunRunLive podcast.  In it I interview Jeff Galloway.  I believe it was early in the year of 2009.  Maybe February.  I had been at the podcast for about a year and a half.

I was thoroughly enjoying my running then.  I had just rolled off a successful 50 miler in the fall and was qualified for Boston.  I ran to work and back in the middle of the winter, 17.5 mile sin each direction!  Crazy.

But I knew I was getting older and was thinking about how I could adjust my competitiveness to stay in the game without overdoing it.  How to co-exist with an endurance lifestyle without having it take up too much of my life or hurt me.  One of the reasons I wanted to talk to Jeff was that I wanted to know how he had done this transition so successfully.  You can hear me probing for this in the interview.

I was confident in my podcasting and had discovered that all these semi-famous running personalities, like Jeff, where extremely approachable.  The audio was terrible. I was never an audiophile and used a cheap USB mic.  I was trying different things.  It was a creative time.

It’s got the old intro where every week I would invite someone from the community to call in with an intro.  It was fun and people loved the voices of the community but it was a pain in the butt to edit into the show.  I would have to beg for entries and then try to fix the audio when they came in.

I used to crank this out every week.  I was able to do it because I recorded the segments on the fly while out running with Buddy anyhow – dual tasking.

Hope you enjoy it.  I edited out the music at the end and the original outro.  Let me know your thoughts.

Cheers,

Chris,
