Carrie’s energy and excitement — whether about running, career, family, or passion projects — is infectious! I love the variety of guests she brings on her show (I especially loved hearing from Susan Ejore, who apparently had never done a podcast before despite being one of the best 1500m runners...Read full review »

Why put out an episode which c sounds like everyone is under water.

Carrie does a great job of bringing in a variety of running-related guests and then drawing them out of their shells. This isn’t necessary for all guests, but many are clearly introverts and Carrie’s gentle approach helps us to learn who these people really are. I particularly liked the episode...Read full review »

I love listening to Carrie’s interviews. She has the perspective of an elite athlete and clearly cares so much about lifting others up and seeing the good in people. I love her attitude! She is wonderful to listen to!

I like the podcast, great guests but the hosts sound quality is significantly louder when she talks versus her guests so it makes it very difficult to listen as I have to turn the volume down and up depending on who is talking. It’s like that every episode and worse when listening with my...Read full review »

Carrie is such a great host. So knowledgeable yet so down to earth.
M1k3 h@!! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/02/23
Basically the title. I enjoy the interviews and have been a subscriber for probably 3-4 years. But during this whole time the sound quality makes it really hard to listen, I often stop the episode half way because it becomes unbearable. The guests are very quiet, and Carrie’s volume goes from...Read full review »

The interview with Julie Weiss was amazing. Her story brought tears to my eyes and also brought a smile at the same time. My dad also died very quickly with cancer and my sister in-law died of pancreatic cancer, so lots of connections for me. Thank you for your podcasts.

Love the Minnesota food talk! I think those are what we call scotcheroos in Iowa and Nebraska . 😬
Hermanut via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/06/22
In the most recent episode (287), the host mocks a Japanese accent of one of her professors in college (around minute 28). I was pretty shocked when I heard this and it should be removed from the podcast.

Finally a podcast that peeks behind the curtain as to what elite running is real-ly like! With her home-grown, Minnesota-based charm, Carrie brings to every show, one feels a part of “the tribe” even though 99.5% of us are mere mortals and will never be Olympians or elite level athletes. She...Read full review »

Love this show. Love hearing about from the pros. As a back of the packer, I like to hear from the elite runners. Loved the episode with Sarah and Molly Huddle! Thanks for the great, real and honest content!
Christy wants to live at WDW via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/03/22
I want to listen to this podcast, but the continual audio changes where Carrie is super loud but the guest is really quiet make it a no go for me. I have to constantly change the volume, and it’s so distracting I can’t even listen. The episode with Sara was better, but ending with saying of...Read full review »

Thank you for sharing Jacqueline’s story. I overlooked her efforts in bringing equality to females in track and field. She truly has the fine line between grace and guts figured out. As an educator, I love the quote, “You can’t guarantee equal outcome, but you can guarantee equal opportunities.“...Read full review »

I wish she’d realize how much the poor audio quality and high scratchy sounds detract from an otherwise worthy running podcast. Maybe get some professional audio help?
Jagremere via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/10/21
At one time this podcast featured people of interest to the running community. Some runners, some non-runners, some well known and some not known or at least until the podcast aired, but most were absorbing and had something to share with the listeners. Recently most episodes devolved into a hype...Read full review »

The podcast is great, but the audio is pretty harsh

Thank you for sharing Duane’s excellent advice on common running injuries!
Judyxfit via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/09/21
Carrie keeps it fun and lighthearted! She’s a pro but wants the guest and listener to have a good time. 4 stars bc sometimes the audio isn’t the best quality.

Great interview....I learned several new things about Covid-19

I enjoyed hearing you interview the speakers at the LA Marathon Expo, so I subscribed to your podcast. I LOVED your interviews with my friends Jacqueline and Mirna. I’m hooked and look forward to more!

Carrie has such a warm and positive personality that she makes her podcast such a joy to listen to. She also has amazing guests and the interviews are insightful, meaningful, and always entertaining. Love it!
BAMRLisa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/18/20
Really love the way she questions the guest. Keep it up Disappointed that there were no women on the NBC commentary for the marathon. They actually had a British man. Really?? Wish you had been there to comment

Carrie brings a great, positive conversation each and every week make s for a good companion during an easy run or if I have to go on the treadmill. The epitome of Minnesota Nice.
@MyFavePacker via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/29/20
Great podcast to learn more about the sport of running in a fun and inviting manner. Carries positive attitude and energy provides for an environment where carrie connects with new runners to elites. Thanks for continuing to champion the sport.

A must-listen for me every week. Carrie’s interviewing style is warm and empathetic, and she has amazing perspective from her own experience.

Love the podcast. Carrie is really authentic and I appreciate her energy, positivity and motivation. Keep up the great work. Love how you had your daughter interview you 👍
Ruth1969 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/20
My 9 year old daughter and I listen to this podcast together. Last night she asked why Carrie only has one episode per week :) Thank you for providing relevant content, inspiring the next generation of runners, and feeling like you could be everyone’s best friend!! Love this podcast
Mom-Runner via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/17/20
Carrie is a super positive presence who also knows her stuff; the hours of research she does for her broadcast work clearly comes across in her interviews. As an Olympian herself she can relate to the elites she has on—but she's just as comfortable talking to those who are just starting out...Read full review »

Every runner should listen!
Moon Safari Guide via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/30/19
Carrie is like your Olympic runner friend with whom you get to sit down and chat each week. At least that's how it feels when she talks to her guests. She is quite simply the nicest person in the running community. She is respected by everyone, is humble and unpretentious, and can relate to...Read full review »

Carrie really helps me get through some of those tough runs on that journey to my first marathon.
Chrisactor1855 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/05/19
Carrie’s broadcasting background makes her interviews so enjoyable to listen to. The Minnesota accent isn’t even bad after you get used to it. Being a former professional athlete herself, she knows all the right questions to ask, and her fun personality makes the interview enjoyable to listen to....Read full review »

She’s a great interview...not afraid to dig deep and hit a nerve or heartstring
my2bboys via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/27/19
I listen to many different running podcasts, and this one is my favorite. Carrie has top-notch guests, and I love how she shares stories from her own running career too. The interviews are fast-paced and fun, and I am never disappointed!
MNrunner88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/20/19
I love Carrie’s attitude! It’s so optimistic. My favorite episodes are when she runs with people and interviews them at the same time. That’s talent!!!
