In this listener-inspired episode, we talk to running coach Laura Norris about all things treadmills. We raise questions such is it the same as running outside, how do times translate, do you have to run on an incline, does your stride change, what about the mental game, do you have to strength train, etc, and finally, can you train for a marathon entirely on the treadmill.

With your fall marathon approaching you have got a good 6-8 weeks of training left. You are nearing the end of your training, and there is no amount of food or rest you can get to make you feel whole. We get it. Training for a marathon is hard. Also, besides the lack of rest and seemingly off-balanced nutrition, there are things you feel. Soreness or injury? When do you keep pushing?

In this episode we speak with David Levine, head coach of the LA Roadrunners gives us some guidance on what to expect and what to do to complete your cycle.
