19. We Are Superman | Bill Stahl

“When you give kids the right education, success can happen,” says Bill Stahl, Running Coach and Podcaster. Not a high school athlete himself, Bill first ran in college and quickly got the running bug. Since then, he has coached everywhere, from small to big schools to working with adults, proving that anyone can be a runner.

 

With a career of coaching kids, Bill is well aware of young people's challenges today. Complicated schedules, too much access to junk food, and non-committed parents are all factors that prohibit kids from being present with their training. However, Bill reminds the listeners that if you incorporate running into your lifestyle, no matter what you’re doing, you will be able to not only avoid injury, but succeed.

 

Tune into this week’s episode of The Code for a stimulating conversation on the commitment to run. Learn more about Bill's running journey, the most significant issues with kids today, and how to make training part of your lifestyle.

Quotes

• “To me, the biggest issue with kids these days is how busy they are. They have so many things going on. And so many conflicting schedules.” (16:53 - 17:03 | Bill)

• “People in this country don't spend enough time thinking about, “What do I need as fuel?” instead of what's convenient.” (27:57 - 28:03  | Bill)

• “When you give kids the right education, success can happen.” (28:31 - 28:37  | Bill)

• “Until you develop the running lifestyle, you're going to go out and get hurt. You're going to quit. And it's the same thing as quitting your weight loss program. Until you do what you need to do, you're not going to be able to run successfully and long term.” (34:25 - 34:44 | Bill)

• “All the other extraneous things you can't affect, you got to put a fence around it. And I just tell kids, you got to focus on this workout right now. That's the only way to succeed in that workout.” (49:51 - 49:02 | Bill)
