In this episode, Tim and Ty discuss the ongoing training for Project Himalaya Run Everest, focusing on training volume, recovery strategies, and the philosophy behind training blocks. They explore the importance of lactate response, mental strategies during workouts, and the challenges of time management in a rigorous training schedule. The conversation also touches on the significance of long run progressions, interval training adjustments, and the impact of recovery time on performance. Finally, they discuss the use of the Stairmaster for preparation and conclude with thoughts on the hard work ahead.
