If you’ve ever wondered whether you should be doing tempo runs, threshold sessions, or both, this episode is for you.

Joining me is running coach and founder of Start Running Stay Running, Carl Batty. We break down two of the most misunderstood training methods in endurance running and explain how to use them correctly to improve speed, endurance and race performance.

In this episode we cover:

What threshold running is and why it matters

The key differences between tempo and threshold training

Common mistakes runners make with both sessions

How to know if you’re running too hard or too easy

How these workouts improve race performance from 5km to marathon
