The opportunity for stronger, faster running is available to us all. With an understanding of key adaptation principles, as well as the strategies which best support tempo training, all athletes can make noticeable progress - the kind that elevates performance and enjoyment!

In today’s episode, we discuss three types of workouts (steady state, lactate threshold, and vo2 max). You will learn why each is uniquely important for your training, while also building an understanding of how to tackle the stressors of each workout. 

Additionally, we dive deep into a discussion on strides and the overwhelmingly positive benefits of incorporating strides, perhaps the most basic form of speed workout, into a regular running regime!

This week’s episode will surely get you thinking about your training in all the right ways; and we hope that you move forward with confidence, knowing you have all that it takes to become a stronger runner in the coming season.
