s2/e30 Running for Health, & "Health vs. Performance" with Elizabeth Knight, PhD, DNP, FNP-C (@flowerpower.health)

RUNNING IS GOOD FOR YOUR HEALTH, but how & why? Health versus performance; is it an either/or? Dr. Elizabeth Knight joins the show to talk all things health & running, including the cardiovascular benefits of regular exercise, health vs. performance, health AND performance and more!

  • Running to be healthy: how much running do we need to do?
  • The cardiovascular benefits of regular running
  • What is chronic inflammation and why is it bad?
  • Health vs. performance: MORE exercise isn't always better
  • Creating peak performance through good health
  • Yes, testing the limits of your ability can be healthy!
  • And more!


Elizabeth lives and runs in Portland, Oregon. When she’s not on the trails in Forest Park, she works as a nurse practitioner and owns an integrative health coaching practice, Flower Power Health, where she works with runners. She’s passionate about science, inclusivity, and helping people approach their bodies with kindness and curiosity. A few of her favorite things are dogs, rock and roll, and pizza. You can find her online at www.flowerpower.health and on Instagram @flowerpower.health.
