From “easy runs” that aren’t actually easy, to why runners own more shoes than they have feet, we unpack the quirks that make running culture so unique.Mitch also shares updates on his string of doctor visits, the ongoing search for answers, and what it’s like getting back into running slowly — only to be met with well-meaning comments like “At least you’re out there!” Meanwhile, Lewis reflects on water-cooler conversations, misunderstood jargon, and the gap between runner expectations and non-runner reactions.Whether you’re a seasoned runner, brand new to fitness, or someone who thinks “tempo run” sounds like a medical condition, this episode will make you laugh, nod your head, and maybe even explain why your runner friend is the way they are.In This Episode:🏃‍♂️ Why runners say “easy” but mean “controlled aerobic suffering”💬 Water-cooler moments between runners & non-runners❤️ Mitch’s health updates, AFib concerns & rebuilding fitness👟 Shoe walls, chafing, anti-chafe gear & why running is expensive😂 Fartleks, intervals, negative splits — and all the misunderstood lingo🔥 The emotional “why” behind running : https://x.com/runningonx/status/1991744729248329938?s=46🙌 Why ANY movement — running, walking, lifting — matters more than the jargonPerfect For:• Runners who want to laugh at themselves• Non-runners trying to understand the madness• Anyone returning from injury or rebuilding fitness• People who have ever asked, “Why do runners DO that?”Join the ConversationShare a funny moment where a runner/non-runner totally misunderstood you!👇 Drop your stories in the comments — we’ll read some on an upcoming episode.🎧 Listen on all platforms📺 Watch full episodes on YouTube👍 Like, Subscribe & Share if you’re part of the running community (or trying to understand one!)Until next time: happy running, happy resting, and whatever you do… don’t forget the anti-chafing.Check out our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/IDKRSupport the show
