Being vulnerable on social media

From poor tune-up races to switching up nutrition, pro runners face the same lessons more casual runners do.

Laura Thweatt is a 2:25 marathoner, professional runner for Saucony, and former US cross country champion.

She placed 5th in the 10k at the 2016 Olympic Trials and 5th in the 2020 Olympic Marathon Trials.

We talk about:

• The emotions before a goal race and working with a sports psychologist during a taper
• Using a training journal to calm pre-race nerves and boost confidence
• Injury management with high mileage
• Handling a bad tune-up race
• Laura’s goals and strategies for the Chicago Marathon (which she had to pull out of after recording due to an Achilles injury)
• Laura’s approach to nutrition and using higher carb products during long runs
• How runners can celebrate breakthrough performances and absorb them before moving onto new goals
