9. Fueling with Energy Gels, New Balance Fresh Foam 1080 v13, & How to Actually Enjoy Running

• How to Actually Use Energy Gels: Some athletes use steroids to gain a competitive advantage. I have enough pimples, hair loss, and extreme mood swings to last me a lifetime. The only injection I want is a shot of ooey, gooey fluid from energy gels. However, it's easy to get caught up in the "energy gel game" and find yourself constantly chasing the “sugar high.” To help others overcome their energy gel addictions like I did, I moderate an “Energy Gel-aholics Anonymous” meeting and you're invited!

• New Balance Fresh Foam 1080 v13 Review: You’ll think I’m insane (and you’re not necessarily wrong), but I tried versions 10-12 of the New Balance 1080 and returned each of them. I was about to give up on the shoe, but then v13 arrived. The shoe’s overhaul offers one of the softest rides on the roads, but is it too soft?

• Hypnosis and Running: Did you know, in addition to being a mediocre podcast host and blogger, The Size 15 Runner is also a self-proclaimed hypnotherapist? It’s true! (In his mind, anyway.) But what if I told you, he could hypnotize you to fall in love with running?
