There are millions of normal, everyday folks like us who use endurance sports as a way to lead a balanced, happy and challenging lifestyle. I’m 20+ years into my endurance journey. Here I share knowledge, entertainment and inspiration.  We interview experts and regular people on the podcast. We write about inspirational topics. We sometimes talk about business and how our training is going. Join me on  the incredible journey that is endurance sports.  Running – Cycling – Swimming – whatever it is that gets you excited.  Let’s stay on this journey together. You can find hundreds of episodes of the RunRunLive Podcast here. There are over a thousand articles on running advice, inspiration and business topics as well. Feel free to explore and share. I’ll see you out there. Chris,

If you’re taking the bus out from Boston I can’t give any advice on that.  I’ve never done it.  But the official handouts from the race should have lots….

What People Say

I love this podcast "I listen to a lot of running podcasts, and I frequently cull my subscriptions. This is the one of the few that I have kept. I love Chris. He is genuinely a wise, interesting and gifted podcaster. I think he's also just a nice guy, someone it would be fun to go have a beer with. I'm not a BQ'er, not even close, but his podcast is for the speedy folks and us mid-packers alike. I have learned so much from him, and his book (How to qualify for Boston, which I'll never do) also. It's a crowded field out there for running podcasts, but week after week his is the one I don't delete. He's gotten me through many a long run.”
The best! "I've been an enthusiastic listening for a couple years now. Chris shares great content on tips for endurance athletes, and motivates us all to go for the adventure- love the show and love his humor and passion for life!.”
“Chris Russell does a fantastic job of entertaining, making me think and supplying me with a fresh stream of endurance sports "fodder". I have listened to his podcasts for over a year and he always manages to come up with things to keep my interest. The segments in each podcast are informative and short enough to listen to on my way to work. Thanks Chris for re-inventing RunRunLive and not putting it aside..”
What an inspiring podcast! "Very motivational and multidimensional.”
Best running podcast "This is the best running podcast by far. No commercials, just high-quality interviews and insights into the human condition. Chris does a great job of inspiring and teaching at the same time. I've also acquired his "Midpacker" books for my Kindle and am finding them a pleasure to read.”
Perfect companion on the run "I love this podcast. The format moves smoothly through running and life advice. Chris has great interviews that keep me entertained on every run.”
