In this episode of the Marathon Running Podcast, we dive into seven evidence-backed principles that transform your physiology to build a faster marathon. We explore how high mileage functions as a "neuromuscular rewiring" tool to turn your legs into mechanical springs, increasing tendon stiffness and lowering oxygen cost. You will learn how to master metabolic flexibility to burn fat at higher speeds, the latest research on the 90-gram carbohydrate fueling revolution, and why high-load strength training is essential for biomechanical efficiency. We also provide updates and expert insights on the benefits of "super shoes," the critical role of deep sleep in recovery, and the performance-optimizing power of the 80/20 polarized training model to keep you informed on the latest in running and competitive sports.
