RP#7 - The Evolution of Distance Running in Humans (audio) | Episode #7 of the Runblogger Podcast is an audio podcast of a lecture I gave to my Exercise Physiology class on the evolution of distance running in humans. In this lecture I outline the hypothesis recently put forth by researchers Dennis Bramble and Daniel Lieberman that humans beings have evolved anatomical and physiological characteristics that make us outstanding at running slowly for long distances in the heat of day, and that these traits like evolved in association with increasing incorporation of meat in the diet of early human ancestors (i.e., for hunting and scavenging).

Customer Reviews
Runblogger Runcast
Pete L. is a gift and inspiration to the running community. His enthusiasm and love for the sport of running is evident through his runcast, his website, and his countless other endeavors. It seems to me that Pete is consistently striving to improve his knowledge base with regards to all aspects running. In this continual quest for knowledge he has not only helped himself but undoubtedly numerous runners (including myself) improve and further strengthen our love of the sport.
Great podcast!
Great podcast about running from an anatomy perspective!
Better n' Better
Since beginning to listen back in Jan-2010, RunBlogger has gotten better with each podcast. Besides the obvious discussions on running, there are a wide variety of other related topics that should appeal to all running levels. Each week now, I'm looking forward to the next podcast. After running pretty much solo for decades, my goal has been to become more socially connected w/ other runners & high activity level people. RunBlogger has been very helpful in providing ideas & motivation!
