Wellness With Stackzzz
Welcome to Wellness With Stackzzz, the podcast where food and fitness meet real life.
Hosted by Nicole and Ryan Stack, we dive into the sweet spot between performance and balance, where marathon training, healthy baking, and everyday living all work together instead of against each other.
From running sub three-hour marathons and chatting about fueling strategies to better-for-you desserts and learning when to rest, we talk about how to chase big goals and still have a life outside of them. Because wellness isn’t about restriction or perfection - it’s about rhythm, purpose, and joy.
So grab a coffee (or a cookie) and come hang out with us every Tuesday morning!

#19: Less is More: Why More Miles Isn't Always Better
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this nineteenth episode, we’re switching things up! Ryan’s taking the lead today as we dive into a topic every runner needs to hear: why more isn’t always better.
It’s easy to think progress means adding more: more miles, more workouts, more speed workouts, you name it. But sometimes the key to running faster, lifting stronger, and actually improving is learning when to do less. In this episode, we break down the difference between training hard and training smart, how to balance running with strength and recovery, and why doing more is not going to always get you the PR you are dreaming of.
If you’ve ever questioned if you’re doing enough or struggled to find balance between training and life, this one’s for you.
