The Lucie Beatrix Podcast

On todays episode I’m going to talk to you guys about turning off and resting HARD.  I’m talking about SLEEP and what I do personally to optimize my rest and recovery as an athlete. From wearing blue light blocking glasses, taking melatonin, and caffeine monitoring, listen to all my sleep biohacks to getting a good night's rest. 

From breaking 17 minutes in the 5k, or running a 34:37 10k, 1:17 half marathon or 2:55 marathon -- these are my speed secrets. 

On this episode I talk about exactly how I got my period back -- and trust me, it's not what you think....

It's a topic that seems to follow me everywhere I go....  On this candid conversation with myself, I talk about why it is that people fixate on weight and size, and why I'm not really about that life. 

On this episode I get into my top 5 greatest hurdles in recovery and how I navigate them.  These struggles include: 1) Family 2) Relationships 3) Perfectionism 4) Identity  5) Grief  My hope is to share my own journey and shed light on the reality of hardship -- or transforming weakness into strength -- on this path to staying sober. 

On this coach pep talk episode I talk to you guys about what I tell my athletes as well as myself building up to the marathon this fall.

On this episode I talk about breaking 17 minutes in the 5k (16:59) but why time goals as runners have to come from somewhere deeper....  Sponsor notes: https://www.luciebeatrix.com/podcast Watch the vlog about the day I broke 17: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJnjvxZ5TWo&t=367s Heylo An app for organizing groups Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

In this episode I talk about what it's like competing in underground, unsanctioned street races that happen in the middle of the night with Orchard Street Runners and Take The Bridge.

Track workouts are what took me from hobby jogging to running competitive times in the 5k to marathon, and in this episode I explain how to do a speed workout. 

Getting sober was hard enough, staying sober through a worldwide pandemic? Talk about a challenge. But now, as the roaring 20s bring parties, concerts, and social gatherings, this is how I'm staying on track... Or at least trying. 

What it was like running a 31 hour 15 minute virtual relay event in NYC. The Speed Project looked a little different this year, but was full of highs and lows and a truly incredible running adventure. 

In this episode I touch on how I have the beginner's mindset when it comes to running and feel like this helps me relay to others who don't come from a running background how to train. I share some advice on what kind of steps to take in order to reach your running goals. 

I signed up for the Orchard Street Runners 100 mile global running challenge on a whim after running a few spontaneous solo marathons during the COVID shutdown. After running my first sanctioned marathon last December, I began toying with the idea of covering more than 26.2 miles in a day — or dipping my toes in the world of ultra endurance. This virtual event seemed like the perfect excuse to tak...

50 Kilometers (31.1 miles) and 365 days without alcohol. 

How I ran a 3:25 marathon with no specific training during the COVID-19 lockdown, practicing social distancing of course. I used this race to enter the Orchard Street Runners solo running challenge. 

On my show I talk about all kinds of stuff from the training I did last fall such as working towards my first marathon, how I fuel to run fast, my career as a fashion model for over a decade, appearing on the cover of several national magazines, and my life here in NYC. But I’ve also touched on a very major aspect of my life which is my recovery story.  Now, with over 300 days now of sobriety unde...

Creepy cab drivers, hair disasters, and bad break-ups. Here's a glimpse of what life was like as a full-time fashion model. 

On my 2:55 marathon debut at CIM.

The days leading up to the race: thoughts and feelings.

At the peak of physical and mental exhaustion, I talk about balancing training with life. 

“I have never seen a greater monster or miracle than myself.”  I didn’t come up with that line but it resonates with me in the thick of my running adventure, now just 9 weeks away from my race.  Over the summer as I started marathon training with Nike’s Project Moonshot and my new team, Brooklyn Track Club, a lot has happened. This episode talks about getting over myself and just doing the work. 

Named after her great grandmother who was the first woman to settle in Alaska from Sweden, Sophie Frost is an artist and writer living here in New York. It’s safe to say, she stands out no matter where she goes. She’s striking as a human (and I don’t mean because she’s really tall and dresses cool) but instead because she carries a spark of energy that is engaging and fascinated by life. She also...
