INTRODUCING: THE RUN DOWN BY THE RUNNING EFFECT
The Run Down isn’t just a newsletter. It’s a field manual for runners who want to master the mental, physical, and philosophical game of distance running—and life.
Every week, professional running coach and former D1 All-American Alex Ostberg distills hard-earned insights from world-class athletes, top-tier coaches, and personal trial-and-error into bite-sized, actionable takeaways.
This is not another “how to run your best 5K” email. This is where performance meets purpose.
In your inbox, you’ll get:
Reverse-engineered breakdowns of how elite runners train, think, recover, and compete
Hard-won lessons from failures, injuries, and comebacks—so you don’t have to repeat them
Philosophical frameworks to sharpen your mindset and sustain long-term excellence
Curated insights from the greatest thinkers—on and off the track
If you’ve ever:
Hit a plateau and wondered, what now?
Questioned your “why”
Felt like you’re doing everything right but still not seeing results…
You’re not alone—and you’re not broken. You’re just ready for deeper conversations.
Welcome to the edge of performance. Let’s go there together.
