    Great informative content
    Hey just wanted to let you know that after listening to a bunch of your podcast episodes and implementing your advice, I shaved nearly two minutes off my two mile run time. My previous best was a 16 minute mile and I just yesterday ran a 14:10. Feels amazing and my knee isn’t hurting like it ordinarily does after pushing myself. Maybe it’s the 180 tempo or maybe it’s maybeline.

    Matt is well-suited to this format
    No surprise that a guy who most of us discovered because of his clever and insightful Instagram posts would make good podcasts. Lots of good info- Matt is legit- and his speaking cadence is such that you don’t miss anything at 1.5x.

    Great info and so practical
    As a PT myself and one that loves learning more about biomechanics I find that Dr Mat explains everything in a way that anyone can benefit. He covers things that are hard to find anywhere else

THANK YOU!! Keep the fantastic episodes coming!!!

    A Great Resource
    Dr. Minard’s Learn 2 Run method changed how I approached running and made me a much more efficient runner. His ability to explain the “why” behind injury, movement and efficiency allows you to make corrections more quickly. Totally worth a listen!
