Über diesen Titel

 Join host Nick Meraz, an amateur ultra marathon runner obsessed with pushing limits, and his skeptical co-host Jarett Horton, who can’t quite grasp why anyone would run for fun. Together, they bring a fresh, funny, and unfiltered take on the world of running. From wild race stories and training mishaps to interviews with what Jarett calls "nuts people"—those who run for fun, competition, and every other wild reason—they dive into the highs, lows, and everything in between of the running community. Whether you’re a seasoned runner or just here for the laughs, this podcast is your backstage pass to the craziness of running culture.Copyright Nick meraz Fitness, Diät & Ernährung Gymnastik & Fitness Hygiene & gesundes Leben

  • The SD 50 Ultra Recap

    The SD 50 Ultra Recap
    Jan 16 2026
    Nick breaks down the most honest race recap of his life.
    At the San Diego 50, he crossed the finish line in 7:42, got congratulated for 4th overall and 1st in his age group… and then discovered the truth: he missed a loop and only ran 45 miles.
    This episode isn’t about excuses—it’s about focus, execution, and integrity. Nick walks through what led to the mental fog, the cracks that showed up mid-race, the moment everything felt “off,” and the decision he made afterward when he could’ve stayed quiet.
    Because real winner mindset isn’t how you act when things go right…
    It’s what you do when they don’t.

    Coaching, Motherhood & 100-Mile Wins with Melissa Henderson
    Jan 9 2026
    In this episode of The Ostrich Running Podcast, Nick sits down with his running coach Melissa Henderson—ultrarunner, 100-mile race winner, coach, and mom—to talk about what it really takes to chase big running goals in a full life.
    Melissa breaks down how she trains for ultramarathons while balancing family, work, and real-world responsibilities. We dive into winning a 100-mile race in under 24 hours, building mental toughness, avoiding burnout, and why consistency always beats talent.
    This conversation goes beyond mileage and race results. It’s about discipline without obsession, ambition without guilt, and learning how to pursue meaningful goals the right way.
    If you’re a runner trying to balance training with life—or someone wondering if big goals still fit your current season—this episode is for you.

  • The Psychology of Endurance Running Training Your Mind -Breaking the Comfort Zone

    The Psychology of Endurance Running Training Your Mind -Breaking the Comfort Zone
    Dec 19 2025
    Episode 38 — Training the Mind for the Miles Ahead & The Cost of Comfort In this solo episode of The Ostrich Running Podcast, Nick Meraz speaks directly to the runner listening right now — mid-run, post-race, or somewhere in between. This episode goes beyond mileage and fitness and into the psychology of endurance. We talk about why most runners don’t fall apart at the hardest miles — they fall apart because of thousands of comfortable decisions made long before race day. Nick explores:
    • Why mental readiness matters more than motivation
    • The hidden cost of comfort in training and everyday life
    • How you train your mind for miles you haven’t reached yet
    • Why the edge isn’t dramatic — it’s quiet and earned
    • How discomfort, fear, and consistency shape who you become
    This conversation is designed to feel like a long-run talk — honest, reflective, and grounded in lived experience. No hype. No shortcuts. Just the work that actually carries you forward when things get hard. If you’ve ever felt strong but not ready… this episode is for you. Run Scared.
