The Sunday Shakeout

Ep. 39 - Training Age 101: Train Smarter


Listen Later

This week's episode of The Sunday Shakeout features a practical guide to training age for distance runners. Training age is something that many runners either overlook or don't have a great idea about. Training age mainly relates to the cumulative amount of years of training and racing that you have had in the sport of long-distance running, your experience. it also refers to things like lifestyle and background prior to distance running. Now why should you care about that? Believe it or not, your experience in the sport plays a major role in what type of training you should be doing, as well as what races you should be in. Today, I talk about that and so much more. I hope you enjoy this episode of The Sunday Shakeout!

In this episode, I talk about:

  • What training age is
  • The effect of training age of workouts
  • The effect of training age on racing
  • And more
