Exploring The AI Running Revolution with Dr. John Holash and Dr. Cody Ray van Rassel

The technological revolution has taken over running. Dr. John Holash and Dr. Cody Ray van Rassel are specialists in exercise physiology at the University of Calgary. We brought them on today’s show to discuss topics including:

• What are some of the most exciting new technologies in athletics
• How the benefits of super shoes are measured
• What is the role of wearable technologies in advancing the sport
• What new technological innovations we might see in the near future
• Whether the humble potato is the ideal fuel source for endurance athletes

At the elite level, technologies like carbon plated shoes and wavelight pacing technologies have led to huge breakthroughs in performances.

John and Cody spend much of their time modeling the impact of technologies like these, making them ideal guests to give you a glimpse into how new technologies are completely transforming what’s possible in running.
