EP. 81 - Your Running & Training Questions, Answered!
About this episode
This week, we answer the most asked questions in the world of running and mindset!
In order, we discuss the following:
- If you are just starting or want to keep it simple, what are 2-3 types of runs to focus on?
- Heart Rate! How to manage it and the mindset when you’re starting at the bottom (or over again) after an injury or long illness.
- Ideas on a strong mindset during long and tough marathon effort workouts?
- Mindset on race day, and how to get over running “fast”, specifically short distance racing?
- Favorite workout(s) for putting speed back in your legs?
- When do you strength train? After/on long run days? Easy run days? Why?
- Currently in marathon training and my marathon pace feels so hard. When should it feel easier?
- Best racing shoes? What to look for in different race distances?
