Anyone else listen to running related podcasts? I have a longish commute and am always looking for things to keep me from going batsh$%! crazy in morning traffic.

Currently, I listen to Trail Runner Nation and the occasional episode of Runners Academy (if they are interviewing someone interesting!)

    I always listen to running podcasts while running. The ones I listen to the most are (and have listened to all episodes from 1 forward):
    - Marathon Training Academy
    - Another Mother Runner
    - Runner Academy
    - Everyday Runners
    - Dirt Dawg's Running Diatribe
    - The Midpack Podcast
    - Running with the Pack - but it ended awhile back and I'm so sad!

    Rich Roll. He covers everything from diet, training, and more. The best podcast out there IMO.

    Oooh - I second this for being GREAT for running.

    Another one that I like for running is Risk. Not running related, it's a story-telling podcast that focuses on times people get out of their comfort zone. Most of the stories are hilarious. Some are shocking. WARNING NSFW! Many of the stories feature..... adult topics. Like really adult topics. Not just sex. But they are always interesting and typically 15 minutes per story. So that's perfect if I want to convince myself to run another mile. I'll run a mile.... to finish the story.

    My favorite running-related podcast is Elevation Trail. Also Ultrarunnerpodcast.

    I super hate 3 hour long podcasts. No editing. booooring.

    Endurance Planet Ask the Coaches and Ask the Ultrarunner (They are part of the Endurance Planet podcast).

    Shameless self promotion - I actually appeared on Everyday Runners and RunBuzz Radio as I wrote about on my blog - http://www.hamptonrunner.com/blog/2014/5/29/everyday-runners

    I don't listen to running podcasts, because the only time I listen to podcasts is when I'm doing a long run. But if you're looking for some just generally GOOD ones: Stuff Mom Never Told You and Stuff You Missed in History Class are two that are exceptionally entertaining. Four of those babies got me through 14 miles last week! I figure I do enough reading about running during the week at work that I don't need to fuel my obsession with podcasts too :)

    I really miss Running with the Pack too!! :-(
    What ever happened to them? They just sort of stopped with no goodbye
