RunwithKat Show
Welcome to the RunwithKat Show! A running podcast that centers around helping you run happy, healthy, and strong. Im Kat! Physical Therapist, Personal Trainer, Run Coach, and most importantly runner. For over 10 years now, running has been one of the biggest constants in my life, and my goal is that it becomes the same for you. As a physical therapist, one of my foundational core values is that movement is medicine, which is why I am extremely passionate about keeping runners healthy. This podcast was created with the intent to provide all of you runners out there with the proper knowledge on how to be the healthiest and fastest runner you can be, while never losing sight of running for pure enjoyment for the sport. My mission is to help you do the thing you love the most as long as possible, and bring out the best runner and person you were born to be. This show is fun, informative, and centered around all things running related. Every week, I interview running experts AND inspirational runners just like you who work everyday to be a little better than yesterday. Whether you’re a beginner runner or a marathon veteran, stay tuned every Monday and bring out the best runner in you!
Hosts: Dr. Katherine Campbell, DPT, CPT, and run coach

Speed Workouts: Everything Runners Need To Know
One of the many reasons runners love running is to be competitive with themselves. We want to be better than yesterday’s version of ourself. And one common way to do that is through beating a previous time you maybe once had. It is also common for new runners to get a generic plan online with speed workouts, and not know what each workout even means or how to execute them correctly. So, in this episode, Physical Therapist and run coach, Dr. Laura Barreca discusses…
- Benefits of speed work
- Who can benefit from speed workouts?
- What type of speed workouts are there?
- Tempo

- How to structure speed work into a run program
- When to run 2 speed workouts a week
