Welcome to Run Smart Lab—a blog for runners who want to do more than just hit the pavement. This is where we run smarter, stronger, and injury-free for the long haul.
I’m Doug, the voice behind Run Smart Lab. I’m not an elite athlete or a professional coach—just a passionate runner navigating the highs and lows of running later in life. I’ve battled injuries, including IT band issues that nearly kept me from my first Boston Marathon, and learned that running isn’t just about going faster—it’s about training smarter and making intentional choices for longevity.
This blog is my way of sharing science-backed strategies, personal stories, and the lessons I’ve learned about injury prevention, recovery, and staying consistent. Whether you’re looking for research-driven advice or just a little inspiration to lace up on a rainy day, Run Smart Lab is here to help.
If you’re a runner balancing a busy life, working to stay consistent, and aiming to run pain-free, you’re in the right place. Together, we can build better habits and make running a lifelong adventure.
Run stronger. Recover faster. Elevate your performance with data-driven insights.
Thanks for joining the journey—here’s to many miles of smiles ahead!
