In this episode, we break down real case studies from our athletes who smashed their run times—without hammering intervals or piling on big mileage.

You'll hear how one athlete ran back-to-back PBs off limited run volume and a strong bike base, and how another broke through a plateau running just 30–40k per week after injury.

If you’re chasing a marathon PB, coming back from injury, or deep in triathlon training, this will give you a fresh, proven perspective on what actually makes you faster.
