  • Episode 75: How Brock Kelly Built a Life Around Running and Creating
    2026/09/01

    In this episode of Endurance State of Mind, we sit down with Mississippi native, former Mississippi College runner, content creator, and entrepreneur Brock Kelly to talk about his journey from competitive high school and collegiate running to becoming one of the most recognizable running creators in Mississippi.

    Brock takes us all the way back to his introduction to running in Tupelo, Mississippi, his rise through the high school ranks, becoming Mississippi’s Gatorade Runner of the Year, and his time competing at Mississippi College. He also opens up about the pressure of competing at the collegiate level, injuries, learning how to handle failure, and the mental side of endurance sports.

    We dive deep into how Brock first picked up a camera and began documenting his running journey on YouTube, long before running content became what it is today. He shares how early videos, limited equipment, and countless hours of editing eventually led to opportunities with Tinman Elite and a summer in Colorado working alongside some of the biggest names in running.

    Brock also breaks down the story behind The Daily Mile, the Instagram series that exploded after he suffered a stress fracture and began documenting his return to running through swimming, cross-training, and eventually racing again. He talks about why vulnerability and consistency connected with his audience, how creating content became a form of accountability, and what it is like turning your own running journey into something that thousands of people follow.

    We also get into Brock's transition from collegiate track to the marathon, including his first marathon at Grandma's Marathon, the brutal conditions, cramping late in the race, barely qualifying for Boston, and what he learned from the experience.

    Beyond running, Brock talks about creativity, videography, building an audience, brand partnerships, authenticity, and his work with Over Everything Athletics. We discuss what it means to create with intention and how running, storytelling, business, and community can all come together.

    Whether you're a runner, marathoner, content creator, or someone interested in building something from the ground up, this is a conversation packed with lessons about consistency, creativity, failure, injury, ambition, and finding your own path.

  • Episode 74: Endurance News, Backyard Ultras, Bigfoot 200 & What’s Next | Endurance State of Mind
    2026/08/25

    Anthony and Zach are back for another episode of Endurance State of Mind, and this time it’s just the two hosts taking a deep dive into everything happening across the endurance sports world. From incredible ultramarathon performances and backyard ultras to cycling, marathon training, upcoming races, and updates from some of the athletes we’ve had on the podcast, there is a lot to talk about.

    The guys start by breaking down Aimee Warnke’s incredible performance at the Bigfoot 200, where she battled deep into the race and ultimately moved into the lead around the 170-mile mark. After previously sharing Aimee’s story on Endurance State of Mind, seeing her return to Bigfoot and put together such an impressive performance makes this one of those endurance stories that is impossible not to follow.

    They also talk about Last Soul Ultra, one of the backyard-style ultras that has Anthony and Zach seriously considering taking on a backyard ultra themselves. The conversation eventually turns to Mark Dowdle, his incredible backyard ultra performances, and the upcoming 2026 Big's Backyard World Team Championship. What makes backyard ultras so fascinating? How far can someone like Mark Dowdle actually go? And what happens when you put some of the best backyard ultra runners in the world together?

    The conversation also covers Phil Gore and Project 168, Leadville 100, and some of the other major endurance events that have captured the attention of runners and fans recently. The guys talk about the growing popularity of following endurance sports from a distance, how social media and live race tracking have changed the way fans experience ultramarathons, and why it feels like there is always another incredible race happening somewhere.

    Cycling gets some attention too, including updates on Grayson Taylor, his recent racing, and the crossover between running and cycling. Anthony and Zach also discuss the differences between the two sports and how racing experience, bike handling, training, and consistency can all play a role when a runner makes the jump into competitive cycling.

    And, of course, there are plenty of Endurance State of Mind life updates. Anthony talks about his upcoming Berlin Marathon, the guys discuss the possibility of finding a local backyard ultra, and they look ahead to what's coming next for both the podcast and their own endurance goals.

    Whether you're into ultramarathons, 200-mile races, backyard ultras, marathon training, trail running, cycling, endurance racing, or simply the stories behind the people who push themselves way past what seems possible, this episode has a little bit of everything.

  • Episode 73: How to Race the Rocket City Marathon | Pacing, PR, BQ & Course Strategy
    2026/08/19
    What does it actually take to race the Rocket City Marathon? Not just finish 26.2 miles, but actually execute a smart marathon from the starting line to the finish?On this episode of Endurance State of Mind, we're heading to Huntsville, Alabama, for the 50th edition of the Rocket City Marathon with Josh Moore, a coach, marathoner, and two-time Rocket City Marathon finisher.This isn't just a Rocket City Marathon course preview. We're talking about how to actually race the course, how to pace yourself, when to be patient, when to start pushing, and what runners chasing a PR, Boston Qualifying time, or sub-three-hour marathon should be thinking about before race day.Josh takes us through the Rocket City Marathon course and shares his experience racing it, including his time pacing the three-hour group during the 2025 race. We break down the opening miles, the residential sections, the Space Center, the Botanical Gardens, the final 10K, and the fast finish toward the Von Braun Center.One of the biggest lessons of the episode is simple: don't try to win the marathon in the first half.The opening miles can feel easy. You're rested, the adrenaline is high, the crowds are around you, and your goal pace can suddenly feel much faster than it should. We talk about why staying disciplined early can make all the difference when you reach miles 20, 22, and beyond.Josh also shares lessons from the 2025 Rocket City Marathon three-hour pace group, including what happens when runners leave a pace group too early, how the race changes in the second half, and why the runners who are patient early can often be the ones still moving late in the race.We get into one of the most practical questions for marathon runners:Do you trust your GPS watch or the official mile markers?We discuss GPS accuracy, certified marathon courses, running tangents, and why runners chasing a specific finishing time should build a little cushion into their goal rather than expecting their watch to perfectly match every official mile marker.That leads to a bigger conversation about marathon pacing strategy.If you're chasing a three-hour marathon, should you run exactly 6:52 pace from start to finish? Or should you give yourself some room for turns, aid stations, crowds, GPS variation, and the reality of running 26.2 miles?We break down how to approach your goal pace without becoming obsessed with the number on your watch.We also talk about the biggest moments on the Rocket City course, including the Space Center, Botanical Gardens, elevation changes, and final miles back toward Huntsville.The final 10K becomes especially important.Instead of spending your energy early, the goal is to arrive at the final 10K with something left. Josh explains why runners shouldn't be afraid to change gears around the 10K-to-go mark and start racing when the course begins to work in their favor.We also discuss a key mental checkpoint late in the race:24.7 miles.Instead of thinking about how much farther you have to go until 26.2, getting to roughly 24.7 miles means you're almost home. The crowds are coming back, the finish is getting closer, and it's time to spend whatever you've been saving.Beyond pacing and course strategy, we get into the practical side of marathon racing.We talk about fueling, hydration, aid stations, warm-ups, clothing, cold-weather racing, and watch data. Josh explains how he uses lap pace and lap time to stay on target instead of constantly chasing the instantaneous pace on his watch.We also look back at the difficult conditions during the 2025 Rocket City Marathon, including cold temperatures and strong winds, and talk about how runners can prepare for unpredictable December weather in Huntsville.If you're running Rocket City, preparation isn't just about the miles.It's about knowing the course, understanding the conditions, having a fueling plan, knowing your goal pace, and being prepared to adjust when race day doesn't go exactly according to plan.We also talk about what makes the Rocket City Marathon such a special race.With nearly 50 years of history, a fast course, strong organization, and a race-day experience designed around the runner, Rocket City has developed a reputation as a race for runners, by runners.From transportation and parking to aid stations, course support, the expo, and the finish inside the Von Braun Center, the goal is to take as much of the logistical stress away from runners as possible.Once you're on the starting line, there's really only one thing left to do:Run.And that's where the conversation gets bigger than Rocket City.We talk about what it means to stand on a marathon starting line with a PR or Boston Qualifying goal after months of training.You've already done the work.You've already completed the long runs. You've already put in the early mornings, the late nights, the sacrifices, and all the miles that brought you to race day.Now it's time to be present and see what that work can produce.We talk about ...
