    I'm joined by one of Manitoba's fastest runners and one of its biggest champions, Matt Van Schepdael. Just weeks away from defending his PhD in Microbiology and preparing for his marathon debut at the Toronto Waterfront Marathon, Matt shares his journey from university track standout to elite road racer. We talk about balancing high-performance sport with academics, the lessons he's learned from his best and toughest races, why giving back to the running community is so important to him, and what excites him most about tackling 42.2K for the very first time. Whether you're chasing a personal best or simply looking to find your place in the running community, I think you'll really enjoy this conversation.

    Runner, coach, and content creator Michelle Baxter (@therunnersplate) has inspired thousands by sharing her journey to a sub-3 marathon and proving that some of our best running can come after 40. But this season has brought unexpected challenges—including a prolonged recovery after Boston and a race that fell well short of her expectations.

    In this conversation, Michelle and Carolyn explore the emotional complexity of running, the realities of chasing ambitious goals in your 40s, navigating changing bodies, people-pleasing, social media honesty, and why disappointment and gratitude can coexist.

    Because sometimes the most honest answer isn't either/or. It's both.

    What if there was a better way to fuel endurance athletes?

    Alison McPherson is an accomplished marathoner, trail runner, running coach, and co-founder of Dig Deep Endurance Fuel. Just weeks after running 2:47 at the Ottawa Marathon and days removed from a 5th-place finish at the Manitoba Marathon, Ali joins me to share the story behind the world's first dissolvable carbohydrate stick.

    Alongside her dad, Russell, Ali set out to solve some of the biggest challenges in endurance nutrition: sticky gels, single-use packaging, high costs, and the lack of flexibility for individual athletes. The result is a customizable, convenient, sustainable, and affordable fueling option designed by endurance athletes, for endurance athletes.

    We dive into the origin story of Dig Deep, the science behind its unique fueling approach, and why Ali believes endurance athletes deserve smarter fuel with a lighter impact.

    Johnny Coffin returns to Inspired Soles for what has to be his tenth appearance on the podcast, making him an unofficial co-host—and fan favourite. In this episode, Johnny and Carolyn share a training update since the Boston Marathon, including their recoveries, their experiences racing the Ottawa 10K Canadian Championships and Canadian Masters Championships (where both earned bronze medals), and their plans for the upcoming Manitoba Half Marathon. But while Johnny's fitness continues to soar and he chases what could be the fastest half marathon of his life, Carolyn finds herself in unfamiliar territory after months of disappointing performances and ongoing medical investigations. Together, they discuss what it's like when one runner in a relationship is thriving while the other is struggling, how they support each other through the highs and lows, and the lessons they're learning along the way.

    What are the most common injuries marathon runners face—and do you really need to stop running when they happen?

    In this episode, physical therapist, running coach, and Healthy Runner Podcast host Dr. Duane Scotti returns to Inspired Soles to break down three of the most common injuries he sees in runners: proximal hamstring tendinopathy (PHT), iliotibial band syndrome (ITB), and Achilles tendinopathy. We discuss what causes these injuries, how to treat them, and most importantly, how to prevent them from derailing your training.

    Duane also shares why loading tendons is often more effective than stretching them, the dangers of over-striding and transitioning too quickly to zero-drop shoes, plus the simple dynamic warm-up he recommends for masters runners. Whether you're dealing with a nagging injury or hoping to avoid one altogether, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you stay healthy and running strong.

    Whitney Heins knows a thing or two about chasing big goals. The founder of The Mother Runners, coach, podcast host, mother of two, and 2:54 marathoner has spent years pursuing her marathon potential—and like many of us, she's still trying to crack one of the sport's greatest mysteries: how to truly nail the final 10K.

    In this conversation, Whitney shares how she went from a 3:15 marathoner to running sub-3, the lessons she's learned through injury setbacks and ambitious goals, how she balances motherhood, business ownership, and competitive running, and what happened when her spring goal marathon was postponed just days before the race. We also dive deep into the marathon puzzle itself, exploring the physical and mental challenges of those final miles and why Whitney believes her best marathon may still be ahead of her.

    Whether you're chasing a marathon breakthrough or simply trying to balance running with the rest of life, this conversation is packed with wisdom, perspective, and inspiration.

    I’m joined by Winnipeg runner Darolyn Walker for a powerful and perspective-shifting conversation about running, resilience, and redefining what success looks like.

    Darolyn’s story spans more than two decades — from competing at a high level in her university and national track days, to navigating a multiple sclerosis diagnosis in her mid-20s, to raising three children while continuing to train, race, and adapt through unpredictable health challenges.

    We focus in particular on her remarkable performance at the Boston Marathon, where she ran 3:05:37 while living with MS — a result that sits at the intersection of high level performance and deep gratitude for simply being able to run.

    But this conversation isn’t really about times or records. It’s about identity, acceptance, letting go of old definitions of success, and finding meaning in movement through changing seasons of life.

    Olympian steeplechaser John Gay joins the show ahead of his marathon debut at the Ottawa Marathon. We dive into his journey through a challenging stretch of injuries, and how it forced him to rethink training, rebuild confidence, and lean on his support system — including his wife Camille, his coach Jon Green, and fellow athletes/friends.

    We also explore his evolution from Olympic finalist in the 3000m steeplechase to first-time marathoner, what it means to start a new chapter in his running career, and what he’s learned from hosting The Shakeout Podcast.

    32-year-old Cassandra de Winter ran 2:34:43 in the 2026 Boston Marathon professional field to finish as the top Canadian woman — a nearly five-minute PB in just her third marathon. Cassandra shares her remarkable rise in both road and trail running, her background in rugby and powerlifting, and what it looks like to self-coach while raising three young children alongside a deeply supportive husband. We also talk about the difficult decision to withdraw from the Oldman Backyard Ultra due to SI joint issues, after using the event to raise funds for Youth One, a Lethbridge-based organization providing free mentorship and support services for youth ages 11–18.

    I’m joined by returning guest Waldo Cheung—physiotherapist, educator with The Running Clinic, and one of my go-to voices for the science of running—for a timely conversation on shoes, injury risk, and what actually matters most. We explore the shift from the minimalist shoe movement of the early 2010s to today’s super shoe era, and whether all this innovation has meaningfully changed how and why runners get injured. Waldo shares what he’s seeing clinically, how footwear may influence (but not determine) injury patterns, and why training load—more than anything on your feet—remains the biggest driver of both performance and breakdown. If you’ve ever wondered whether your shoes are helping, hurting, or just distracting you from the bigger picture, this one’s for you.

    Brant Stachel returns for a powerful conversation about the hard truths runners need to hear — and why they matter.

    A mental performance coach, registered psychotherapist, and author of Fast and Free: Mindset Training for Endurance Athletes, Brant has a unique ability to challenge athletes while still meeting them with empathy and understanding.

    In this episode, we explore the many counterintuitive principles of endurance training — from slowing down to get faster, to the reality that fitness is built in recovery — along with the uncomfortable patterns that often hold runners back.

    This is an honest, thought-provoking conversation about growth, self-awareness, and what it really takes to reach your potential.

    Johnny is back (basically a co-host at this point) for a recap from the 130th running of the Boston Marathon. We go deep on everything: training, travel chaos, race weekend energy, my live show with Jeff Cunningham, and of course, the races themselves. Johnny took a bold swing on the early downhills and paid for it with a tough second half, while I ran entirely on effort—no watch—and somehow managed to hit every goal, including a Boston Qualifier. It’s a long one (2:40—same as Johnny’s finish time), a little emotional, and very much a time capsule of a weekend we won’t forget.

    What does marathon training really look like across a nearly two-hour performance gap?

    In this episode, I’m joined by Sara Mandersheid to explore the key differences between coaching a 2:55 and a 4:35 Boston Qualifier. We dig into how factors like time on feet, long runs, workouts, fueling, recovery, and race day strategy should actually scale — and why a one-size-fits-all approach to marathon training often misses the mark.

    Along the way, Sara shares thoughtful truths about mileage, performance, and what really moves the needle — while also reminding us that joy has a place in the process.

    Whether you’re chasing a BQ or simply looking to train smarter, this conversation might just change how you think about your running.
