Ben Rosario, the head coach of the prestigious NAZ Elite and one of the best coach's in the country, is back on the show! In this episode we discuss his new book Run Like a Pro (Even if You're Slow) that he co-wrote with Matt Fitzgerald. They take a deep dive into mileage, running skill, running intensities, racing, recovery, nutrition, and mindset.

Ben and Matt first started working together six years ago when Matt spend three months with NAZ Elite as Ben coached him to a huge PR at the Chicago Marathon. Now they expand on their work together to bring cutting-edge advice on how to achieve your personal best, for everyone from casual runners to ultramarathoners.

New research has bolstered the case that the 80/20 method, that Matt Fitzgerald written about extensively in the past, is in fact that most effective way to train for distance running and other endurance sports. Run Like a Pro (Even If You’re Slow) shows readers how to take the best practices in elite running and adopt them within the limits of their own ability, lifestyle, and budget.
