Hey runners, Ash here from Run Better with Ash! Today, let's dive into a game-changer for your running journey – mindfulness.

Picture yourself conquering the half marathon with ease, setting a personal best, and surpassing your own expectations. Speed intervals are the secret weapon to achieving these aspirations.
They are not just any ordinary running workout; they are strategic bursts of intensity that target your cardiovascular system, enhance your aerobic capacity, and teach your body to maintain a steady pace during the race.
This session will improve your half marathon time.
Let’s get started…

We're diving headfirst into a run-changing technique that holds the key to unlocking your running potential: Buteyko Breathing.
Yes, you heard it right! We're about to explore how tweaking the way you breathe can supercharge your endurance, elevate your oxygen utilisation, and rev up your running game.
I’m living proof of the results of this breathing technique. I went from not being able to maintain my endurance for longer than 10 miles on flat roads to running the toughest Trail Half Marathons in Europe up mountains!
So, my fellow runners, get ready to lace up your shoes and embark on a journey to transform your running experience.
Picture this: a group of runners speeding effortlessly along a picturesque trail, their bodies perfectly aligned, their strides textbook-perfect. We've all seen those images, haven't we? The pursuit of the elusive "perfect" running form has consumed the minds of many runners and coaches alike.
But what if I told you that there's no such thing as perfect running form?
In this episode, I'll explore the notion that each human body is unique, with its own set of bones, muscles, cardiovascular system, and nervous system.
This means that our running form will naturally vary from person to person.
Instead of striving for a standardised ideal, we'll explore the importance of finding optimal elements within your own body and embracing the beauty of your individuality.

It's been nearly a week since I crossed the finish line of the Snowdonia Trail Half marathon, and my body is still feeling the aftermath. My calves are sore, and my quads protest every time I rise from a chair.
As I sit here at my laptop, jotting down notes for this episode, I can't help but reflect on the valuable insights I gained from this mountain run. Lessons that can be applied to all of our running journeys.
Join me in this episode as I share my summit revelations.
