Coach Luke On Training, Coaching, and Consistency | The Active You Ep. 10

In Episode 10 of The Active You, we sit down with Luke Rogers, a former basketball player turned runner and Runner’s Roost store coach. Luke shares how an ACL injury helped lead him into running and what it was like starting from the very beginning. Running did not come easy at first, but through consistency, patience, and showing up every day, he learned that you do not have to be a naturally gifted runner to become a great one. We talk about coaching at Runner’s Roost, helping runners build confidence, the common things runners overlook, and what it was like training John and helping him work toward a PR. Luke also shares why easy runs should actually be easy, why sleep, recovery, eating right, and core work matter, and how altitude training challenged his mindset. We also get into poker and how running teaches you to play the long game. Whether you are a new runner, getting back into it, or chasing your next goal, this episode is all about hard work, consistency, and trusting the process.
