In episode 150, I spoke to British professional runner and coach Jonathan Albon.

We talk about;

  • His reflections after defending his title at the World Trail Running Championships in Thailand.
  • How living in Norway has influenced his training in application and philosophy.
  • Training with Kílian Jornet and sharing one workout that you can try.
  • Looking at the nuance of the 80/20 rule for runners.
  • Talking not getting stuck in fashionable training methods and what are the key principles that amateurs can learn from the elites.
  • Advice for specific marathon training including strengthening work.
  • Plus lots more.
