347: Training Adaptability: The Key to Successfully Integrating Running into Your Life


Listen Later

In this episode, we discussed the importance of adapting and adjusting a runner's training plan based on various factors such as missed workouts, upcoming goals, and the runner's experience. Emphasize the importance of understanding the purpose of each workout and suggest ways runners can maintain consistency in their training, even when life's unexpected events get in the way. 


We talked about different scenarios in which workouts might need to be rescheduled or skipped altogether, and explained how such decisions are influenced by the runner's priorities and the demands of their life outside of running. 


Key concepts include the importance of flexibility, consistent training, and understanding the 'why' behind each workout. We also underscore the value of having a coach to provide personalized guidance and support.
