Jeff Galloway didn’t just teach people how to run. He taught people how to believe they belonged out there, whether they were chasing a PR, coming back from injury, or starting from zero. Coming back after his passing is hard, so we’re honoring him the best way we know how: by sharing moments where his voice, his patience, and his practical wisdom shine.

You’ll hear Jeff tell the story of how the Run Walk Run method took shape, starting with a room full of brand-new runners and a simple goal: help them reach a finish line without getting hurt. We talk through the mindset behind walk breaks, the pacing tools he recommends like the magic mile, and why “conservative early” so often turns into “strong at the end.” Jeff also shares how he adjusted interval lengths for his own racing, including what helped him qualify for Boston when it really mattered.

We also revisit his race-weekend coaching that runDisney runners know so well: how to approach a two-course challenge, how to keep day one from stealing day two, and a no-nonsense recovery plan that includes quick refueling, compression sleeves, and a cool water soak. Then we shift to the Atlanta Jeff Galloway 13.1 weekend and what makes it special, from the scenic course past iconic landmarks to the community impact, plus the finish-line moment Jeff always stayed for.

If Jeff helped you start running or keep going, we want to hear your story. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a boost, and leave a review so more runners can find these lessons and this love.

There is also a virtual and in-person race weekend on April 25, 2026 honoring Jeff Galloway in Atlanta Georgia. Find out more here:

We are replaying a very special episode this week on the Run Eat Drink Podcast as we flash back to a celebration of Jeff Galloway's 80th birthday. Jeff means so much to us. He is not just an Olympian; he is founder of the run-walk-run method. He is also a friend and family member to so many of us in the run-walk-run community. Words cannot express the inspiration, love, guidance, and support he has given so many of us.

As many of you may know from a recent Facebook post, Jeff is in recovery from emergency neurosurgery and is now in the care of a great medical team in the ICU.

We also want to spread the word that if Jeff has impacted your life and you would like to leave him a special message during his recovery, please do here:

Jeff, we love you and wish you a healthy and safe recovery.

RED Episode 320

SHOUTOUTS

Thanks to Alison Bourey who shared her story with us of a struggle turned into triumph. Here is the link to the story of the students and faculty who saved her: irstalert4.com/2025/11/03/parkway-north-teachers-revive-woman-who-collapsed-while-running-high-school-track/.

Thanks to Dawn Broussard who shared: “There are definitely lots of days that I don’t want to get out there so I just say I’ll give it 10 minutes and most of the time it’s enough time to start wanting to move more. Now eating junk is another story. I’m not sure I can ever give up my sweets and snacks.

Springtime Surprise in 2024 was so difficult. I didn’t want to leave the hotel room after I found out my sister had died, but my family didn’t want me to give up on things I enjoy doing and now usually do all my miles with those who can’t in mind.”

Over the summer in the past we have celebrated rum during National Mojito Day (July 11), National Rum Day (August 16), and National Mai Tai Day (August 30). We are preparing you now for the two upcoming days that celebrate the spirit itself and one of our favorite ways to enjoy it. How? By highlighting some of our favorites from Siesta Key Rum.

Kevin Moroney, a part of the family behind Siesta Key Rum, and the Customer Experience Manager there took time to sit down on a Sunday morning and talk with us about how this popular and award-winning distillery got started and some great ways to enjoy this spirit with food and beverage.
