Don't Take Too Long: Tom Kaufman and Caleb Wilson
This week on Sunday Dinner, we’re joined by two generations of Madison West cross country coaches: Tom Kauffman and Caleb Wilson.A good coach can build a winning team. A great coach can build a community.That’s what TK showed both Caleb and me when we ran for him, and now we get to hear Caleb’s perspective as the new head coach at Madison West. This conversation is full of nostalgia for me, but it was also fascinating to reflect on how much the landscape of high school running has changed over the past decade.We discuss how coaches are navigating the evolving world of running technology, training methods, and information sharing, while staying grounded in the principles that matter most. For both TK and Caleb, it always comes back to the same goal: creating a community of lifelong runners.I’m grateful for what these two are doing for the sport and for the thousands of athletes they’ve taught that “You can’t get there without getting there.”Contact us at hackersundaydinner@gmail.comMusic written and recorded by Tim Gibson

Sodium Bicarbonate: 100 years of research, recent boom?
This week on Sunday Dinner we talk about sodium bicarbonate. It seems like everyone's trying it, and at many different disciplines from the 400 to the marathon. But what is it best for? How do you use it? Why should you use it? We explore how it works, what the research suggests are the best use cases and my own personal experiences. Despite its recent popularity there is almost 100 years of science exploring this supplement and more ways to use it rather than just a pre-packaged, pre-dosed system. I learned something new and I hope you do too, enjoy!Grgic, J., Pedisic, Z., Saunders, B. et al. International Society of Sports Nutrition position stand: sodium bicarbonate and exercise performance.

Leads Lost & a DQ (what are ya gonna do?)
This week on Sunday Dinner we talk about some recent races and the ensuing drama! Starting with my dad's 106 mile bike race where he cuts down a 7 minute lead for the win (in his old age group). We discuss the wrong turn at the USATF Half Marathon Championships and dig into the rulebook regarding the disqualification in the NCAA Indoor 3000m.

So you want to talk biking?
This week on Sunday Dinner we talk biking! In a true Hacker Sunday dinner it would be pretty easy to get someone talking about their various bike components. Luckily or unluckily, depending who you are, that is not what we cover. Instead we see what science has to say about using cycling as a cross training tool for running. Past it being generally a good way to improve aerobic capacity we bring up more questions than answers. We get into specifics of the physiological differences between running and cycling and consider what implications those could have on a cross training athlete. I learned a lot and hope to apply it to my own training as soon as possible. Hope you enjoy!Contact us at hackersundaydinner@gmail.comMusic written and recorded by Tim Gibson

I'm injured, now what?
This week on Sunday Dinner, we talk injury. I explain about what's going on with my foot, and how I figured out what's going on with my foot. My dad takes us through the healing process of a torn plantar and a surgerized plantar in a way only a nerdy scientist would. I take a moment to complain about my sewer issues and we close with a discussion about the mental side of injury and identity in sport. Every runner is going to get injured at some point, so you have to figure out what to do about it. Mostly, you just have to let it heal (which is surprisingly hard).
