About this episode
The second episode in our bonus series with On Running is all about training. Sometimes when you’re working on improving your endurance, speed, or form, you can get stuck in a running rut. That’s why it’s important to train your mind and your body. In 2014, pro trail and mountain runner Allie McLoughlin won the World Long Distance Mountain Running Championship, and in 2020 she won the US Trail Marathon National Championship. Throughout her career, she’s had to hone her training schedule to heal from injuries, prevent future injuries, and get faster. In this episode Allie talks about how to build a training plan and why it’s important to work towards a specific goal.
The guests in our series with On Running are not coaches, physical therapists, or doctors. Their advice is for educational purposes only and does not substitute professional medical advice.
