This conversation is with Dr. Andy Reed, an elite level ultra distance trail runner and sport medicine specialist located in Canmore, Alberta.

He has been the lead team physician for the Canadian National Biathlon, Cross Country, and Paranordic ski teams since 2005.

  • His typical training schedule 
  • Resistance training for injury prevention 
  • Sometimes less is more 
  • Setting the FKT on the “Canmore Double Quad” 
  • Why a “one size fits all” running program isn’t ideal  
  • Long slow runs are essential  
  • One of the hardest workouts Andy puts his athletes through
