Why you don't have to smash every workout to improve

About this episode

We live in an era that lionises ‘smashing’ workouts, but is that really the path to sustained improvement? Tom Craggs, national endurance manager for England Athletics, doesn’t think so. Tune in for Craggs’ insights on the real path to better running – one that’s sustainable, enjoyable and built on firm foundations. Ben Hobson also discusses his own recent experiments with ‘slow intervals’, as espoused by Klaas Lok in his book, Easy Interval Method. If you’re interested in learning more, the book is available here. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
