In this episode of Running to the Castle, you'll learn why slower runners don’t need to train harder — they need to train smarter. If you've ever felt the pressure to “make up” for your pace with extra miles, strength sessions, or by pushing through pain, this one’s for you.

I’ll walk you through a powerful belief shift about overtraining, pacing, and recovery, and share the story of Emily — a dedicated runner who thought she needed to do more to be ready for her marathon, until she discovered how a smarter approach helped her run stronger, recover faster, and trust her training.

You’ll also get a practical tip for evaluating your recovery needs, and why your body’s signals — not the number of workouts — should guide your training decisions. Plus, a subtle peek into how we do things differently inside Stronger. Faster. Finisher.™, with the waitlist now open.
