This is race week for me as I get ready to run the Rock n Roll San Antonio ½ marathon this weekend.  This will be my 4th time to run this fun race and my 17th half marathon since I started running these races back in 2013.  Today, I thought I’d share with you what I did differently this training cycle and why I feel like it’s been my best training cycle in years.  I am going into this race on Sunday injury free and feeling stronger and faster, because for the first time in all these years of running marathons and half marathons, I finally decided to hire a run coach (actually 2 as they work together in their group training clubs).

After listening to this episode, if you're interested in checking out my run coaches and their group and 1:1 coaching options, you can find Jen Steele at @misadventuresofamarathoner and Nicole Dobransky at @fitnessfatale
