"How long will it take for me to reach xx time?" "How long will it take until I start seeing results?" "How long will it take until I get faster?" Coach Montana Depasquale (@coachmontanadepasquale) joins the show to discuss how long it takes to get faster! Spoiler alert: it depends!

  • Why "how long until I see the results I want" isn't the right question you should ask
  • Why a race PR isn't the only way to determine "improvement"
  • Why training "harder" isn't always better
  • Periodizing your training properly for best results
  • Why can't I be in "peak" condition all the time?
  • Why "testing your fitness" during your taper will sabotage your race day
  • Why are my faster paces getting slower/feeling harder when I first start slowing down to easy effort on easy days?
  • Committing to the timeframe it takes
  • Montana DePasquale is a certified running coach, wife, and mom. She's passionate about providing runners with evidence-based info, helping them cut through the 'noise' of information overload and misinformation. She's also passionate about getting more runners strength training, and providing good quality of care to pregnant and postpartum women runners. She's been running for over 15 years herself and is a former D1 track and cross country runner. Prior to working in the online space, she's coached at the high school and college levels. She loves helping runners go after their big goals, whether they're sub-3:00 marathoners or brand new to the sport run-walkers.
