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 Laufen & Joggen Seelische & Geistige Gesundheit

  • Your Fitness Didn’t Disappear—You’re Under-Fueled
    May 1 2026
    Your fitness didn’t disappear… your fuel did.

    In this solo episode, Nick shares a recent experience with under-fueling that led to a failed tempo run—and breaks down what’s actually happening in your body when you’re not eating enough.

    From glycogen depletion to muscle performance, this episode explains why fueling is critical not just during your runs, but across your entire training cycle.

    If your legs are giving out before your lungs, this is a lesson you don’t want to miss.

  • Why He’s Running 1,000 Miles on a Track (Buff Runner Story)
    Apr 17 2026
    What does it actually take to commit to something most people wouldn’t even consider? In this episode, Nick sits down with Mason Wright—also known as The Buff Runner—to break down his next challenge: running 1,000 miles on a track to raise money for the Single Parent Project. After completing 421 miles across Utah, Mason is taking things even further—and this time, removing the scenery, the variation, and everything that usually distracts you. Just a track.
    Just repetition.
    Just the decision to keep going. We get into:
    • Why he chooses these extreme challenges
    • What goes into planning something like this
    • The logistics most people never think about
    • What happens when things start to break down
    • And the mindset required to keep going when there’s no external pressure to finish
    This isn’t just about running. It’s about purpose, discipline, and choosing to do hard things.
